第一篇：春节风俗英文介绍及英文祝福语
The Spring Festival is a traditional Chinese festival and also the most important one of the whole year.Through the evolvement of thousands of years, a series of customs are spreading far and wide.扫尘 Sweeping the Dust
“Dust” is homophonic with “chen”（尘）in Chinese, which means old and past.In this way, “sweeping the dust” before the Spring Festival means a
thorough cleaning of houses to sweep away bad luck in the past year.This
custom shows a good wish of putting away old things to welcome a new life.In a word, just before the Spring Festival comes, every household will
give a thorough cleaning to bid farewell to the old year and usher in the
new.贴春联 Pasting Spring Couplets
“The Spring Couplet”, also called “couplet” and “a pair of antithetical
phrases”, is a special form of literature in China.The Spring Couplet is
composed of two antithetical sentences on both sides of the door and a
horizontal scroll bearing an inscription, usually an auspicious phrase，above the gate.The sentence pasting on the right side of the door is
called the first line of the couplet and the one on the left the second
line.On the eve of the Spring Festival, every household will paste on
doors a spring couplet written on red paper to give a happy and prosperous
atmosphere of the Festival.In the past, the Chinese usually wrote their
own spring couplet with a brush or asked others to do for them, while
nowadays, it is common for people to buy the printed spring couplet in the
market.贴窗花和“福”字 Pasting Paper-cuts and “Up-sided Fu”
Paper-cuts, usually with auspicious patterns, give a happy and prosperous
atmosphere of the Festival and express the good wishes of Chinese people
looking forward to a good life.In addition to pasting paper-cuts on
windows, it is common for Chinese to paste the character “fu（福）”, big and
small, on walls, doors and doorposts around the houses.“Fu（福）” shows
people’s yearning toward a good life.Some people even invert the
character “fu（福）” to signify that blessing has arrived because “inverted”
is a homonym for “arrive” in Chinese.Now many kinds of paper-cuts and
“fu（福）” can be seen in the market before the Festival.守岁 Staying Up Late on New Year's Eve
The tradition of staying up late to see New Year in originated from an
interesting folk tale.In ancient China there lived a monster named Year，who was very ferocious.Year always went out from its burrow on New Year’s
Eve to devour people.Therefore, on every New Year’s Eve, every household
would have supper together.After dinner, no one dared go to sleep and all
the family members would sit together, chatting and emboldening each
other.Gradually the habit of staying up late on New Year’s Eve is formed.Thus in China, “celebrating the Spring Festival” is also called “passing
over the year(guo nian)”.However, now there are less and less people in
cities who will stay up late to see New Year in.贴年画 Pasting New Year Prints
The custom of pasting New Year Prints originated from the tradition of
placing Door Gods on the external doors of houses.With the creation of
board carvings, New Year paintings cover a wide range of subjects.The
most famous ones are Door Gods, Surplus Year after Year, Three Gods of
Blessing, Salary and Longevity, An Abundant Harvest of Crops, Thriving
Domestic Animals and Celebrating Spring.Four producing areas of New Year
Print are Tɑohuɑwu of Suzhou, Yɑngliuqing of Tianjin, Wuqiɑng of Hebei and
Weifang of Shangdong.Now the tradition of pasting New Year paintings is
still kept in rural China, while it is seldom followed in cities.吃饺子 Having Jiaozi
On New Year’s Eve, the whole family will sit together to make jiaozi and
celebrate the Spring Festival.The shape of jiaozi is like gold ingot from
ancient China.So people eat them and wish for money and treasure.The
tradition of having jiaozi is very important during the Spring Festival.You cannot have a complete Spring Festival without having jiaozi.(See
page 82 for more information about “jiaozi”)
看春节联欢晚会 The CCTV New Year's Gala
The New Year’s Gala is a variety show held by China Central Television
(CCTV)since 1983.For every year since then at the turn of the Lunar New
Year, the program begins at 8:00PM and lasts five or six hours.It brings
laughter to billions of people, creates many popular words and produces
lots of TV phenomena meriting attention.For over twenty years, its value
has gone far beyond a variety show.It is essential entertainment for the
Chinese both at home and abroad.Many Chinese would like to watch the gala
while having the dinner on New Year’s Eve.放鞭炮 Setting off Firecrackers
The firecracker is a unique product in China.In ancient China, the sound
of burning bamboo tubes was used to scare away wild animals and evil
spirits.With the invention of the gunpowder, “firecracker” is also called
“鞭炮biānpào”(“炮” in Chinese means gun)and used to foster a joyful
atmosphere.The first thing every Chinese household does is to set off
firecrackers and fireworks, which are meant to bid farewell to the old
year and usher in the new.In the past few years, such an activity was
completely or partially forbidden in big cities including Beijing due to
fire and personal casualty caused by burning firecrackers.However, some
Chinese thought that a Spring Festival without firecrackers was not lively
enough and they burned firecrackers by stealth.So in recent years, the
ban was canceled again.This shows that burning firecrackers is a very
important activity during the Spring Festival.拜年和压岁钱 New Year's Visit and Gift Money
On the first day of the Chinese lunar year, everybody puts on their best
clothes and pays ceremonial calls on their relatives and friends, wishing
them all the luck in the coming year.Juniors will greet seniors, wishing
them health and longevity, while seniors will give juniors some gift money
as a wish for their safety in the coming year.When friends meet, they
will wish each other happiness and prosperity with a big smile.With the
development of the new technology, there is a change on the way of giving
New Years greetings.In recent year, it is common to send New Years
greetings by such modern means of communication as telephones, emails and
text messages.逛庙会 Temple Fair
Temple fair, usually held outside temples, is a kind of folk custom in
China.During the Spring Festival, temple fair is one of the most
important activities, in which there are such performances as acrobatics
and Wushu, numerous kinds of local snacks and many kinds of things for
everyday life In recent years, the temple fair has become a place for
people to appreciate the traditional art and experience the traditional
life.Traditional Festival Greetings:
恭贺新禧 | Happy New Year
吉祥如意 | Everything Goes Well
恭喜发财 | Wishing You Prosperity
年年有余 | Surplus Year after Year
岁岁平安 | Peace All Year Round
新春大吉 | Good Luck in the New Year
In the past two years, it has become a vogue for relatives and friends to
send short messages to greet each other during the Spring Festival.With
best wishes, the warm greetings of text messages give a happy and joyful
atmosphere of the Festival.Festival Greetings via Text Message

春节英文介绍：
The Origin of Chinese New Year
中国春节的来历
The Chinese New Year is now popularly known as the Spring Festival because it starts from the Begining of Spring(the first of the twenty-four terms in coodination with the changes of Nature).Its origin is too old to be traced.Several explanations are hanging around.All agree, however, that the word Nian, which in modern Chinese solely means “year”, was originally the name of a monster beast that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.One legend goes that the beast Nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite.People were very scared.One day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue Nian.To Nian he said, “I hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents?” So, it did swallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harrassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.After that, the old man disappeared riding the beast Nian.He turned out to be an
immortal god.Now that Nian is gone and other beasts of prey are also scared into forests, people begin to enjoy their peaceful life.Before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year's end to scare away Nian in case it sneaked back again, because red is the color the beast feared the most.From then on, the tradition of observing the conquest of Nian is carried on from generation to generation.The term “Guo Nian”, which may mean “Survive the Nian” becomes today “Celebrate the(New)Year” as the word “guo” in Chinese having both the meaning of “pass-over” and “observe”.The custom of putting up red paper and firing fire-crackers to scare away Nian should it have a chance to run loose is still around.However, people today have long forgotten why they are doing all this, except that they feel the color and the sound add to the excitement of the celebration.
