01Lantern Festival

元宵节的来历和风俗

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in February or March in the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25), it had become a festival with great significance.

元宵节在阴历正月十五，一般是公历二月或三月，早在我国西汉时期（公元前206年——公元25年）就变成一个重要节日了。

This day’s important activity is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of Buddha’s body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a grandfestival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China.

这一天重要的活动就是看灯啦。早在公元前206年至公元220年的汉代，释教就在我国盛行。有一位帝王传闻僧侣可以看到舍利，也就是佛被火化后留存在体内的东西，在阴历的正月十五这一天点灯祭奠佛祖，所以这位帝王就指令这一天在他的宫廷和古刹里点灯以体现他对佛祖的尊敬。此后，这项释教典礼打开变成一般民众的盛大节日，它的影响力从华夏区域一向延伸到整个我国。

02Tangyuan

品尝我国年——汤圆

People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also called the “Yuanxiao Festival.”Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. It is small dumpling balls made of glutinousrice flour with rose petals, sesame, bean paste, jujube paste, walnut meat, dried fruit, sugar and edible oil as filling. Tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. It tastes sweet and delicious. What’s more, tangyuan in Chinese has a similar pronunciation with “tuanyuan”, meaning reunion. So people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the family.我们在元宵节的时分会吃元宵，因而这个节日也就叫做元宵节。“元宵”还有另外一个名字—汤圆，用糯米粉做皮，玫瑰花瓣、芝麻、豆酱、枣泥、胡桃肉、干果、糖和食用油做馅，做成的小面球团。汤圆可以煮、炸或许蒸来吃。吃起来甜甜的，很甘旨。而且，汤圆在我国和“团圆”这个词的发音类似，代表着团团圆圆。因而我们吃汤圆会标志着家庭的团圆、调和和高兴。

汤圆有各种不一样的馅料，点心里的馅料：

Filling: 馅

感恩节火鸡肚子里的馅料：

Stuffing: 填充物，馅

Filling也可以做描述词，标明某个东西吃完后让人感触很饱：

It is very filling.

赏花灯

03Enjoying Lanterns

Decorating and hanging lanterns is the main tradition of the festival, with lanterns big and small hung around households, parks, streets and other public spaces. Red lanterns of various shape and type will attract countless visitors to watch.

正月十五赏花灯是元宵节必有的另一项风俗。我们把大巨细小的花灯悬挂于家门口、公园、大街或许其他公共场所。林林总总的红灯笼将会招引许多的游客前来赏识。

猜灯谜

04Guessing Lantern Riddles

“Guessing lantern riddles”is an essential part of the Festival. Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. If they are right, they will get a little gift. The activity emerged during people’s enjoyment of lanterns in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). As riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom, it has become popular among all social strata.“

猜灯谜”是节日的中心有些。灯笼的主人会将谜语写在一张纸条上并贴在灯笼上。假定游客能解开灯谜，他们就能将纸条拿下往来不断灯笼的主人那看答案是不是正确。假定答案是对的，他们将会得到一份小礼物。这项活动最早在宋朝（公元960-1279）呈现，当我们在赏灯的时分隔端。因为猜灯谜极具快乐喜爱性，又需要动脑筋，所今后来在全社会各阶层中收到广泛等待。Solving riddles on lanterns has been a popular tradition since the Song Dynasty People write riddles on paper and stick them to the lanterns and if someone guesses correctly, they can pull the riddle off. The notes often contain messages of good ortune and wishes.从宋代初步,猜灯谜就是一项非常受等待的风俗活动。我们把谜语写到纸上并悬之于灯,招供猜玩。一般,谜底都是各种吉利话和祝福。

舞狮子

05Lion Dances

The lion dance is one of the oldest traditions to celebrate the Chinese New Year. In ancient times people regarded the lion as a symbol of bravery and strength and believed the dance could drive away bad fortune to protect

people and their livestock .The custom has continued to the modern day and lion dances are performed at important events on the Chinese calendar. such as the Lantern Festival, to bring good luck.舞狮子是另一项庆祝新春的陈旧风俗。在古代,我们把狮子作为勇气和力气的标志,认为舞狮可以消灾降福。所以舞狮子的传统就延至今,而且每到佳节或庆典,如元宵节都会以舞狮子来恳求好运

In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged. On the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks form a beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local governments will even organize a

fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky.在元宵节的白日里，会有许多扮演节目，例如，舞龙灯、舞狮、采莲船、扭秧歌、踩高跷和打鼓。到了晚上，除了绮丽的灯笼，烟火也是另一道秀丽的风光。许多家庭从头年头步就在放烟火，而且连续到了元宵节。一些本地政府还会组织烟火晚会。在晚上，当新年的第一轮满月出来后，我们就会被天空中绮丽的烟火和明月所沉醉。
