(完整版)中国传统节日来历、风俗、诗句
中国传统节日来历、故事、诗句、风俗活动 一、除夕： 农历十二月大年三十晚上叫除夕。 来历：除夕最早源于先秦时期的“逐除”。据记载，古人在新年的前一天，用击鼓的方法来驱除“疫疠之鬼”，来年才会无病无灾。这就是“除夕”节的由来。“除”意思是“交替”；“夕”意思是“夜晚”。故除夕之夜，含有“旧岁到此而除，明日另换新岁”的意思。“除”乃除旧布新之意。“除夕”有“送旧迎新、祛病消灾”的意思。 风俗活动：守岁、放烟花、吃团圆饭。 诗句： （唐）范成大《卖痴呆词》： 除夕更阑人不睡，厌禳钝滞迫新岁； 小儿呼叫走长街，云有痴呆召人卖。 二、春节： 农历正月初一即春节。是农历的一岁之首，俗称“大年”。是我国民间最热闹、最隆重的一个传统节日。 来历：据说，在很古的时候，世界上有一种最凶恶的野兽叫“年”。它一出来，见人吃人，见畜伤畜，人们生命安全受到严重威胁。天神为了惩罚“年”，把它锁进深山，只许它一年出山一次。人们发现“年”有“三怕”——怕红颜色、怕响声、怕火光。于是，有一年腊月三十晚，大伙在门口贴上红纸，不断地敲锣打鼓、放鞭炮，晚上屋子里彻夜点上灯，“年”来了一看，家家灯光通明；一听，处处放炮声，吓得它不敢进村。白天它又偷偷下山来，见还是户户门上红，遍地咚咚响，吓得它胆颤心惊，调头又跑回去了。从此后，“年”一直没敢再来，据说饿死在深山老林里了。后来，人们才把防“年”、“驱年”，变成安安稳稳地过年了。 风俗活动：贴春联、放爆竹、敲锣鼓、吃饺子、拜年。 诗句： 王安石《元日》： 爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏； 千门万户曈曈日，总把新桃换旧符。 三、元宵节： 阴历正月十五日，又称“上元节”，是我国一个重要的传统节日。

The Spring Festival（春节） The first day of the first lunar month is the New Year in the Chinese lunar calendar. Among the traditional Chinese festivals, this is the most important and the most bustling. Since it occurs at the end of winter and the beginning of spring, people also call it the Spring Festival. Chinese have many traditional customs relating to the Spring Festival. Since the 23rd day of the 12th lunar montha, people start to prepare for the event. Every family will undertake thorough cleaning, do their Spring Festival shopping, create paper-cuts for window decoration, put up New Year picturesb, write Spring Festival coupletsc, make New Year cakesd, and also prepare all kinds of food to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new. New Year's Eve is the time for a happy reunion of all family members, when they sit around the table to have a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, talking and laughing, until daybreak, which is called "staying up to see the year out". When the bell tolls midnight on New Year's Eve, people eat dumplings. In ancient times, midnight was called zishi (a period of the day from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m.). Dumplings (jiaozi) are eaten because it sounds the same as "change of the year and the day" in Chinese.

中国传统节日和民俗简介(附英文).pdf
中国传统节日Traditional Chinese holiday 中国的传统节庆膳食是节日必不可少的伴侣。例如，我国的端午节(the Dragon Boat Festival)是纪念古代诗人屈原的日子。那一天，人们通常要赛龙舟、 吃粽子(zongzi)。中秋节是观赏满月的日子。圆圆的月亮象征着圆满，象征着家 庭团聚。因此，中秋节(TheMid-autumnFestival)的特制食品是一种圆形的月饼。 ，除了常见的家禽和春节是中国的农历新年(the Chinese lunar New Year’s holiday) 肉类之外，人们还要按各自的地方习俗烹制传统食物，如饺子和年糕。 端午节The Duanwu Festival 端午节，又叫龙舟节，是为了纪念爱国诗人屈原。屈原是一位忠诚和受人 敬仰的大臣,他给国家带来了和平和繁荣。但最后因为受到诽谤（vilify）而最终 投河自尽。人们撑船到他自尽的地方，抛下粽子，希望鱼儿吃粽子，不要吃屈 原的身躯。几千年来，端午节的特色在于吃粽子（glutinous dumplings）和赛龙舟，尤其是在一些河湖密布的南方省份。 春节The Spring Festival 在我国，一年有很多节日，在这些节日中，我最喜欢春节。这不仅因为它 是一年中最大的节日，更因为它是新一年的开始，给人们带来新的希望，也因 为它是亲朋好友团聚的时刻。不管身在何方，人们总会在春节前回到家里准备 过节。通常，我们会在除夕夜吃一顿丰盛的晚餐，之后家人团座一起，分享一 年以来的生活以及新年计划。有的人则会玩游戏或者出去玩。 大年初一，人们通常会早起，会与见到的人说吉祥话。孩子们会得到压岁 钱。在接下来的几天里，人们会带上新年祝福互相串门拜年。总之，春节是一 个欢聚一堂、供人享乐的日子。 元旦New Year's Day -day holiday, so I can go out have fun Today is the New Year’s Day.

中国主要传统节日的由来与习俗
中国主要传统节日的由来与习俗 篇一：我国传统节日来历和风俗习惯 我国传统节日来历和风俗习惯 中国重大的传统节日有春节、元宵节、清明节、端午节、中秋节等。 1.元旦： 相传“元旦”一词来自我国最早的皇帝之一——颛顼，他规定以农历正月为“元”，初一为“旦”。后来有的朝代对元旦的日期有所变更，但原则上还是以每年的第一天为元旦，如夏代以正月初一为元旦，但商代以12月初一为元旦，而周代又以11月初一为元旦，代以10月初一为元旦。直到西汉武帝时，大历史学家司马迁等人重新制定历法，并规定每年正月初一为元旦，从此历代不改。 1911年辛亥革命成功后，决定采用国际通行的公历，于是将农历元旦改为“春节”，而把公历的1月1日称为元旦。新中国成立之时，开始正式使用“公元纪年法”，把每年公历的1月1日定为元旦。 2.春节 春节是中国人一年中的第一个传统佳节。过去，春节被称为“新年”，因为按照中国历史上一直沿用的农历，这天是正月初一，为新一年的开头。据记载，中国人民过春节已有4000多年的历史，它是由虞舜兴起的。公元前两千多年的一天，舜即天子位，带领着部下人员，祭拜天地。从此，人们就把这一天当作岁首，算是正月初一。据说这
就是农历新年的由来，后来叫春节。1911年辛亥革命后，中用公历纪年，农历新年便改称“春节”（大约在公历1月下旬到2月中旬之间）。春节时，家家贴春联、贴年画、装饰居室。春节前一夜叫“除夕”，是家庭团聚的重要时刻，全家人欢聚一起，吃一顿丰盛的“年夜饭”；许多人通宵不眠，称“守岁”。次日，大家便开始到亲朋好友家里“拜年”，相互问候，祝愿在新的一年里万事如意。春节期间，传统的文娱活动以狮子舞、龙灯舞、划旱船、踩高跷最为普遍。 3.元宵节： 又称上元节、元夜、灯节。这是春节后的第一个月圆之夜。相传，汉文帝（前179—前157年）为庆祝周勃于正月十五勘平诸吕之乱，每逢此夜，必出宫游玩，与民同乐，并将正月十五定为元宵节。司马迁创建《太初历》，将元宵节列为重大节日。隋、唐、宋以来，更是盛极一时。《隋书?音乐志》日：“每当正月，万国来朝，留至十五日于端门外建国门，绵亘八里，列戏为戏场”，参加歌舞者足达数万，从昏达旦，至晦而罢。当随着社会和时代的变迁，元宵节的风俗习惯早已有了较大的变化，但至今仍是中国民间传统节日。过元宵节，有吃元宵和观灯的习俗。元宵以糯米粉为皮，裹果料糖馅，圆形，是“团圆”的象征。元宵节观灯始于公元一世纪，沿至当代仍在各地盛行。每到元宵节之夜，许多城市举办灯会，展出各种彩灯，造型新奇，千姿百态；在农村，则举行文娱活动，如放焰火、踩高跷、耍龙灯、扭秧歌、荡秋千等。
