二、端午节
农历五月初五是端午节。一般认为，它是为纪念中国古代诗人屈原而产生的。屈原是东周战国时期( the Warring States of the Zhou Dynasty)的楚国人，他因自己的政治理想无法实现，又无力挽救楚国的灭亡(annihilation), 当秦国灭楚后，于五月初五抱石投汨罗江自沉。江边群众得知，便纷纷驾舟打捞屈原尸体。为纪念这位伟大的爱国诗人(patriotic poet),后人把这天定为端午节。每逢此节，民间有吃粽子、赛龙舟的习俗。望和习
The Dragon Boat Festival occurs on the fifth day of the fifth month in the lunar calendar.The festival is generally believed to originate from the commemoration of Qu Yuan, an ancient poet of China. Qu Yuan was a man of the ancient state of Chu during the Warring States of the Zhou Dynasty. He committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River on the fifth day of the fifth month in the lunar calendar when the powerful State of Qin conquered the State of Chu,because he had failed to realize his political ideals and been unable to save Chu from annihilation. When the local people learned about it, they raced out in their boats to retrieve his body. In order to commemorate this great patriotic poet, later people established this day as the Dragon Boat Festival. Folks have the custom of eating zongzi (balls of sticky rice) and the dragon boat race on this occasion every year.

1、年夜饭
吃年夜饭是春节期间家家户户最热闹的时刻。除夕夜，丰盛的年夜菜摆满大桌，一家人团聚在起， 围坐桌旁， 欢声笑语，共享美餐。年夜饭可谓一一年里最为丰盛的一顿大餐，为准备年夜饭，人们往往要提前忙上好几天，配备各种各样的食材。年夜饭上的菜肴各式各样，五花八门。一些地方般少不了两样东西:一是火锅，二是鱼。火锅沸煮，热气腾腾，说明红红火火;“鱼”和“余”谐音，象征“吉庆有余”，也喻示“年年有余”。
Having the feast on New Year’s Eve is the liveliest moment for every family during the Spring Festival. A big table is filled with substantial and delicious dishes on New Year’s Eve.All the family members get together and sit around the table, laughing and sharing the feast.The feast on New Year’s Eve may well be said to be the most wonderful meal in a year. In order to prepare it, people tend to be busy for several days in advance, preparing a variety of ingredients. The cooked dishes are of various kinds. Generally, in some places two things
inevitably appear on the table: One is hot pot and the other is fish. The boiling hot pot sends out warm steam, symbolizing a great boom.“Fish”and“abundance”have the same pronunciation in Chinese, symbolizing ’more luck and auspiciousness" and implying “abundance year upon year .”
2、春节贴福字
春节期间贴“福”字是我国民间由来已久的风俗。“福”在汉语中指福气、福运，寄托了人们对幸福生活的向往，对美好未来的祝愿。在汉语中，“倒”与“到”读音一致，所以很多人干脆把“福”字倒过来贴，寓意是“福气已到”。“福”字上的装饰性图案也是各有特点，不尽相同，但都很漂亮。有的“福”字是民间艺人和心灵手巧的( ingenious)普通百姓用剪刀在纸上剪出来的，即剪纸图案。这种“福”字颇具艺术性，也格外美观。
It is a long -standing folk custom in China to post the Chinese character” Fu” during the Spring Festival. This character in Chinese literally means blessing and. good fortune,expressing people’s yearning for a happy life and a good wish for a bright future. Since the characters meaning upside down and arrival have the same pronunciation in Chinese,many people simply I post the character Fu upside down to indicate the arrival of the blessing.O Decorating patterns of the character Fu are not exactly the same, exhibiting different features, and yet very beautiful. Some of the characters Fu are patterns cut out of
paper with scissors by folk artists and ingenious ordinary people. They are paper-cut patterns,which are very artistic and extraordinarily beautiful in appearance.
