到了端午节，小朋友兴了，他们又唱又跳，一起玩耍又唱起关于端午节的歌谣：“五月五，是端阳。插艾叶，带香囊。吃粽子，撒白糖，龙船下水喜洋洋。”每年农历五月初五是端午节，是中国民间的传统节日，又称端阳节、重五节。

赛龙舟、吃粽子是端午节的主要活动。相传龙舟竞度是为了捞救投汩罗江而死的屈元。把粽子投进江中是让鱼虾吃饱，不再吃屈原的遗体。

端流行于汗、壮，布依、侗、土家、仡佬等民族地区。

端午又称重五，许多习俗也与五这个数字联系在一起。用红、黄、蓝、白、黑五色丝线系在儿童脖颈、手腕、或者足踝上，称为长命丝缕。各家要插“五端”：菖蒲、艾草、石榴花、蒜头、龙船花。南方过端午要吃“五黄”：黄鱼、黄瓜、咸蛋黄、黄豆瓣包的粽子，雄黄酒。无论南方北方，这一天还要用雄黄在儿童的额头上画个“，王”字。还有佩戴五颜六色的香囊。每逢端午节，人们吧房子打扫干净，在厨房里撒上雄黄酒，用来杀死毒虫，或防止毒虫孳生。

学者闻一多认为，端午节是龙节，是五千年以前少数民族纪念龙神的日子。

Mid Autumn festival!

小时候，总听妈妈给我讲屈原因为楚平王而投汨罗江，从此便有了端午节，我也似懂非懂地知道了：原来端午节是由屈原而产生的。

When I was a child, my mother told me to listen to Qu Yuan because Chuping Wang and the Miluo River, then have the Dragon Boat Festival, I also vaguely know that the Dragon Boat Festival was produced by Qu Yuan.

相传屈原是一个爱国诗人，投江后，汨罗江畔的百姓们纷纷去打捞屈原的尸体，因此有了赛龙舟的习俗;百姓们把饭团等投入江中，因此有了吃棕子的习俗，百姓们把兄雄黄酒倒入江中，因此有了喝雄黄酒的习俗。

Legend has it that Qu Yuan is a patriotic poet, Jiang River, Miluo people have to recover Qu Yuans body, so there is the custom of the dragon boat race; people have the balls and into the river, so there is the custom of eating zongzi, people are the brother of wine poured into the river, so have a drink realgar wine the custom.

记得前不久，我还了南湖边，看龙舟竞渡，那儿人山人海，一派热闹的景象，南湖边上围满了人，不用说他们就是来看龙舟竞赛的，只见不远处湖面上，停泊着大大小小的的龙舟，龙舟选手们严阵以待，不过一会儿就上了各自的龙舟，他们一个个精神抖擞，似乎真的是要打捞屈原。一眨眼的工夫，他们就开始了，随着“嘿咻嘿咻”的口号声。他们有节奏地划起龙舟，这使我不禁想象起了当时百姓们纷纷去打捞屈原时的情景……

I remember not long ago, I also see the South Lake, dragon boat races, there are huge crowds of people, a lively scene, South Lake surrounded with people, they see the dragon boat race is needless to say, not far from the lake park, large and small dragon boat, Dragon Boat athletes embattled, but soon on the boat, they all seem to be in fine fig, really want to salvage Qu Yuan. In a blink of an eye, they began, with the slogan "sex.". They have a rhythm to draw from the dragon boat, which I imagine the people at that time have to retrieve his time......

At the end of the Zhou Dynasty, the area we now know as China had fallen

into a state of fragmentation and conflict. While the Zhou dynasty had ruled for

several centuries, several other states, originally feudal domains, tried to

carve out their own kingdoms. The state of Qin would eventually emerge the

victor and unify all of China under one rule for the first time in history.

Qu Yuan served as minister to the Zhou Emperor. A wise and articulate man,

he was loved by the common people. He did much to fight against the rampant

corruption that plagued the court-- thereby earning the envy and fear of other

officials. Therefore, when he urged the emperor to avoid conflict with the Qin

Kingdom, the officials pressured the Emperor to have him removed from service.

In exile, he traveled, taught and wrote for several years. Hearing that the Zhou

had been defeated by the Qin, he fell into despair and threw himself into the

Milou River. His last poem reads:

Many a heavy sigh I have in my despair,Grieving that I was born in such an

unlucky time.I yoked a team of jade dragons to a phoenix chariot,And waited for

the wind to come,to sour up on my journey

As he was so loved by the people, fishermen rushed out in long boats,

beating drums to scare the fish away, and throwing zong zi into the water to

feed braver fish so that they would not eat Qu Yuans body.

The Modern Dragon Boat Festival started from that time to this day, people

commemorated Qu Yuan through Dragon Boat Races, eating zong zi, and several

other activities, on the anniversary of his death: the fifth day of the fifth

lunar month.

Dragon Boat races are the most exciting part of the festival, drawing

crowds of spectators. Dragon Boats are generally brightly painted and decorated

canoes. Ranging anywhere from 40 to 100 feet in length, their heads are shaped

like open-mouthed dragons, while the sterns end with a scaly tail. Depending on

the length, up to 80 rowers can power the boat. A drummer and flag-catcher stand

at the front of the boat. Before a dragon boat enters competition, it must be

"brought to life" by painting the eyes in a sacred ceremony. Races can have any

number of boats competing, with the winner being the first team to grab a flag

at the end of the course. Annual races take place all over China, Hong Kong,

Macao, Taiwan, and other overseas Chinese communities.

More and more people now show their great interests intraveling, because

traveling can bring us a lot of benefits.

To begin with, having worked hard for a few months, traveling can release

us from high pressure. More importantly, traveling can help us acquire more

knowledge. No matter how many books we have read, there is still plenty of

knowledge for us to learn from traveling, like history, culture, custom, and

geography of the places we visit. By the way, through traveling, we can meet

many new friends and taste different kinds of delicious food.

While some people are not interested in traveling at all, since traveling

will cost a great deal of money on transportation and accommodation, and they

may feel tired after sightseeing as well.

As far as I’m concerned, the advantages of traveling are more than its

disadvantages, so if our time and finance permit, we can travel to some nice

places every year, in order to make our life more colorful and vivid.

Fifth lunar month, is a traditional Chinese folk festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, also called "duanyang", "the Dragon Boat Festival", "day" of the day, "big day", "moreline festival", "sections".

The Dragon Boat Festival, is Chinese two thousand years of tradition, because the region vast, many nationalities, part of the Mongol, hui, Tibetan, miao, yi, zhuang,, north Korea, dong, yao, bai, tujia, hani, she, lexical, water, naxi, daur, MuLao, qiang, GeLao, xibo, meters, the ewenki nationality, the abundant solid, such as oroqen ethnic minority also in this section, with many stories, so not only produced many different section name, and also have different customs.

Some activities, such as dragon boat racing, has been a new development, broke through the time and geographical boundaries, become an international sporting event.

农历五月初五，是中国民间的传统节日——端午节，也叫“端阳”、“蒲节”、“天中节”、“大长节”、“沐兰节”、“女儿节”。它是中华民族汉族的传统节日之一。端午也称端五，端阳。此外，端午节还有许多别称，如：午日节、重五节，五月节、浴兰节、女儿节，天中节、地腊、诗人节、龙日、艾节、端五、夏节等等。虽然名称不同，但总体上说，各地人民过节的习俗还是同多于异的。 时至今日，端午节仍是中国人民中一个十分盛行的隆重节日。

过端午节，是中国人二千多年来的传统习惯，由于地域广大，民族众多，部分蒙古、回、藏、苗、彝、壮、布依、朝鲜、侗、瑶、白、土家、哈尼、畲、拉祜、水、纳西族、达斡尔、仫佬、羌、仡佬、锡伯族、普米、鄂温克、裕固、鄂伦春等少数民族也过此节，加上许多故事传说，于是不仅产生了众多相异的节名，而且各地也有着不尽相同的习俗。其内容主要有：女儿回娘家，挂钟馗像，迎鬼船、躲午，帖午叶符，悬挂菖蒲、艾草，游百病，佩香囊，备牲醴，赛龙舟，比武，击球，荡秋千，给小孩涂雄黄，饮用雄黄酒、菖蒲酒，吃五毒饼、咸蛋、粽子和时令鲜果等，除了有迷信色彩的活动渐已消失外，其余至今流传中国各地及邻近诸国。有些活动，如赛龙舟等，已得到新的发展，突破了时间、地域界线，成为了国际性的体育赛事。

又是一年粽香时。

北方人过端午，除了吃粽子和鸡蛋以外，早晨要起早，采艾蒿而且是带露水的，扫舍驱瘴，佩香囊，少了南方人的赛龙舟。

记得小的时候的端午节这天，天还没亮就被妈妈煮了一夜的粽子香气给叫醒，便赶紧起床，顾不得洗脸冲向厨房，揭开锅探手取出温热的惦记了一年的粽子，粽叶合着糯米大枣的香气扑鼻沁心，妈妈包的是四个棱角的粽子，一个个紧实玲珑，还没等拆开绳子，口水都咽了好几下了，剥开绿色粽叶，晶莹润泽，撒上白糖，那无与伦比的甜蜜顿时萦绕全身，那种香味对于我来说，比任何食物都好吃几倍!

那时会讶异的发现我和妹妹的手腕上，被妈妈晚上趁我们熟睡时悄悄绕上了五色丝线，惊喜的感觉不亚于如今的孩子收到圣诞礼物。妈妈说那是彩绳避邪的。

还要佩香囊。小孩佩香囊，不但有避邪驱瘟的意思，而且佩戴它，对于小姑娘那真是一种最美的装饰品。香囊内有朱砂、雄黄、香药，外包以丝布，各家有各家的形状，最常见的有石榴、元宝、海棠等等，形形色色，清香四溢，玲珑夺目。这一天就是弥散着特殊香氛的一天，女孩子聚在一起拿出香囊互相观赏，比比谁的样子好看香气最足，免不了馈赠几个给朋友带回家里慢慢品赏，看看它的香味到底能持多久。也常有调皮的男娃娃趁小姑娘不备，伸手抢几个，一溜跑开，气的女孩忙追去…

晚上，大人们忙碌了一天坐在餐桌旁，这一天要拿出贮备了久时的好酒，在酒盅里加上雄黄——喝上一盅雄黄酒;那时最爱听父母讲端午节的来历，从他们的讲述中知道了许仙和白娘娘美丽动人的故事，爸爸说白娘娘是白蛇变的，她喜欢上了叫一个许仙的书生，两人如何在断桥相识，白娘娘为许仙不顾一切的去盗取灵芝草，但是许仙听从了一个法海和尚，就在端午节这天，在酒里面放了雄黄让白素贞喝下，果然美丽的白娘娘变成了一条白蛇……，我们听的入了神，记得妈妈还逗我们说：你们也喝点看看能不能变成蛇?我们将信将疑的抿了一口有着特殊的药味的雄黄酒，那时真的担心自己长出蛇的样子来，不时摸摸身后……

今天，没有起早，没有采蒿，没有人给佩戴香囊和五色丝带，也搞不到雄黄酒，只是唯独吃到了妈妈包的粽子，还是止不住让我想念过去的端午节，那种有着中国浓厚传统文化的节日。现在的洋节也开始被我们接受，开始逐渐兴起了，而有着悠久历史和浓郁文化传统的端午节却被韩国注册了，我们过节的味道也越来越淡了，

可惜!又是一年粽香时。

Today is the fifth day of May -- the Dragon Boat Festival, it is often said that the weight of five. I asked grandpa: "the Dragon Boat Festival is how come?" Grandpa said: "the Dragon Boat Festival is in memory of the ancient Chinese patriot Qu Yuan. When Qu Yuan was in court officials, but the villains in power, and the court. Qu Yuan did not want to see a country annihilated, arms stone, cast into the Miluo river. The people in the state after hearing the news, their boat rescue. From then on, there will be the festival of the Dragon Boat Festival.

"Shijie,." At this time, the mother ordered. I went to the kitchen and asked, "Mom, what do you do?" "wrap the rice dumplings!" mom said.. "This work, which I do?" I said.

Soon the rice dumplings out of the pot, eating the dumplings wrapped in their own hands, heart than eating honey sweet.

I like the Dragon Boat Festival, but also like to wrap the rice dumplings, eat rice dumplings.

As is known to all， food is a priority for the mon people.Recently，

however， reports about food problems have often been seen in the newspapers，

showing that people have always been concerned about what they eat every day.

The reason for this problem is that some of the food producers are too fond of

making money， leading to the result that they use whatever will make the food

look good or taste better without considering the bad consequences。 This is not

normal because people just cannot live without eating anything.

So we should take all the measures necessary to forbid the food producers

to make food that is not safe enough. Laws should be strengthened and the

government should have more control over these producers。 Only when people are

no longer worried about whether their food is safe or not can they enjoy a

better life.

中秋节的传说 关于中秋节的英语作文

Mooncakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month，it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.

There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating mooncakes. One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it. One day all 10 suns appeared at once，scorching the planet with their heat. It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hou Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns. As his reward，the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hou Yi the Elixir of Immortality，but she warned him that he must use it wisely. Hou Yi ignored her advice and，corrupted by fame and fortune，became a tyrannical leader. Chang-Er，his beautiful wife， could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon，the Moon Fairy.

The second legend has it that during the Yuan Dynasty，an underground group led by Zhu Yuan Zang was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance. The moon cake was created to carry a secret message. When the cake was opened and the message read，an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians. It happened at the time of the full moon，which，some say，explains why mooncakes are eaten at this time. Mooncakes are usually stamped with Chinese characters indicating the name of the bakery and the type of filling used. Some bakeries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalised ones to friends and family. They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. Traditional mooncakes are made with melted lard，but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health. Mooncakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of Chinese tea，especially Jasmine or Chrysanthemum tea，which aids the digestion.

中秋节吃月饼就像西方人圣诞节吃百果馅饼一样，是必不可少的。圆圆的月饼中通常包有香甜的莲子馅或是红豆馅，馅的中央还会加上一个金黄的咸鸭蛋黄来代表月亮。而月亮正是中秋节庆祝的主题。每年农历8月15日人们一起庆祝中秋，据说这一天的月亮是一年中最亮最圆的。

关于吃月饼这个传统的来历有两个传说。一个是唐朝的神话故事，说的是当时地球被10个太阳包围着。有一天10个太阳同时出现在天空中，巨大的热量几乎把地球烤焦了。多亏一位名叫后羿的神箭手射下了9个太阳，地球才被保住。为了奖励后羿，王母娘娘赐给后羿一种长生不老药，但是王母警告他必须正当使用。然而后羿没有理会王母娘娘的警告，他被名利冲昏了头脑，变成了一个暴君。后羿美丽的妻子嫦娥对他的暴行再也不能袖手旁观，于是她偷走了后羿的长生不老药，飞到月亮上逃避后羿的狂怒。从此就有了关于月宫仙子嫦娥，这个月亮上的美丽女人的传说。

第二个传说讲的是在元朝，朱元璋领导的起义军计划起义来摆脱蒙古族的统治。他们用月饼来传递密信。掰开月饼就可以找到里面的密信，起义军通过这种方式成功的发动了起义，赶走了元朝的统治者。这场起义发生在八月十五之时，于是中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间传开来。

Every day, we can see the figures of the volunteers. Actually, they have

formed a kind of scenery of the city. Some people hold that volunteering is

merely a waste of time, because the volunteers have no gains with pains.

However, I believe that doing voluntary is quite rewarding.

In the first place, we can put into practice what we have learnt before,

for instance, when we were asked by a foreigner about the way to some place, we

could practice our oral foreign language, it’s definitely a good opportunity to

express ourselves in a foreign language correctly and clearly.

In the second place, we could make a lot of new friends while we are

volunteering As a proverb says, “At home one relies on one’s parents and outside

on one’s friends”, so it is never a bad thing to have lots of friends.

Finally, helping others is a good way to make you feel happy and when you

help others solve a problem successful, you will feel fulfillment. In this

sense, we reap a bountiful spiritual harvest by doing voluntary work.

On the whole, we can benefit a lot by engaging ourselves in the voluntary

work. Therefore, I suggest those that have abundant spare time registering as

volunteers for the welfare for the public.

端午节的意义

农历五月初五为端午节，又称端阳节、午日节、五月节、艾节、端五、重午、午日、夏节。虽然名称不同，但各地人民过节的习俗是相同的。端午节是我国二千多年的旧习俗，每到这一天，家家户户都悬钟馗像，挂艾叶菖蒲，赛龙舟，吃粽子，饮雄黄酒，游百病，佩香囊，备牲醴。

端午节的第一个意义就是纪念历史上伟大的民族诗人屈原。屈原，名平，是战国时代的楚国人，生于楚威王五年夏历正月初七，或谓生于楚宣王二十七年，卒于楚襄王九年。

端午节的第二个意义是伍子胥的忌辰。伍子胥名员，楚国人，父兄均为楚王所杀，后来子胥弃暗投明，奔向吴国，助吴伐楚，五战而入楚都郢城。当时楚平王已死，子胥掘墓鞭尸三百，以报杀父兄之仇。吴王阖庐死后，其子夫差继位，吴军士气高昂，百战百胜，越国大败，越王勾践请和，夫差许之。子胥建议，应彻底消灭越国，夫差不听，吴国大宰，受越国贿赂，谗言陷害子胥，夫差信之，赐子胥宝剑，子胥以此死。子胥本为忠良，视死如归，在死前对邻舍人说："我死后，将我眼睛挖出悬挂在吴京之东门上，以看越国部队入城灭吴。"便自刎而死，夫差闻言大怒，令取子胥之尸体装在皮革里于五月五日投入大江，因此相传端午节亦为纪念伍子胥之日。

端午节第三个意义是为纪念东汉孝女曹娥救父投江而死。曹娥是东汉上虞人，父亲溺于江中，数日不见尸体，当时孝女曹娥年仅十四岁，昼夜沿江号哭。过了十七天，在五月五日也投江，五日后抱出父尸。就此传为神话，继而相传至县府知事，令度尚为之立碑，让他的弟子邯郸淳作诔辞颂扬。孝女曹娥之墓，在今浙江绍兴，后传曹娥碑为晋王义所书。后人为纪念曹娥的孝节，在曹娥投江之处兴建曹娥庙，她所居住的村镇改名为曹娥镇，曹娥殉父之处定名为曹娥江。

端午节第四个意义是纪念现代革命女诗人秋瑾。秋瑾是六月五日殉国，后人为敬仰其诗，复哀其忠勇事迹，乃与诗人节合并举行纪念，而诗人节亦因纪念爱国诗人屈原而定为端午节。秋瑾字睿卿竞雄，号鉴湖女侠，小字玉姑，浙江绍兴人，幼年擅长诗、词、歌、赋，且喜骑马击剑，有花木兰、秦良玉在世之称。28岁时参加革命，影响极大，预谋起义，开会时为清兵所捕，不屈，于光绪三十三年六月五日在绍兴轩亨口英勇就义。

I have a big family, there are seven people in my family, my mon, dad, two grandpas, two grandmas and me. My dad is soldier, he works in police station. My mom works in the bank, she is an accountant. They both are very busy in working, I can only play with them in the weekend. My grandpas and grandmas dont work for company, but they are volunteers and often take me to do the voluntary labor.

I am in Grade three in Yuanling elementary school, my mom always tells me I am a good girl and should study hard and get along well with all my classmates.

In the weekend or holiday, my family often go out for travelling or other things, I feel very happy with all the members and love them very much.

I imagine a lot about lives in the future. I think two words can summarize

my imagination. The first word is fast. In the future, we will have more quickly

transportation means. Now matter how far we go, it takes only a short time. With

the development of science and technology, we can travel to the moon, Mars or

somewhere outer space. People may can live in other planets. The second word is

convenient. Because of the fast development of our society, many work can be

done by computers or even robots. Lots of things are fully automated. Humans

just need to give some simple instructions to complete complecated tasks.
