in china, the spring festival is the most important holiday. it’s just like christmas day in western countries. people like eating, drinking and playing “majiang”. they enjoy going to movies and temple fairs as well as visiting relatives and friends. in china, people like to set off firecrackers but now in some big cities it’s not allowed because it’s too dangerous. on the first day of spring festival, children wear new clothes and their parents give them some money.
in the morning i get up early and go into my parents bedroom calling out“happy new year.” after that, they give me a “hongbao”. this money is given to children for good luck. i can use it to buy lots of my favorite things. then my family goes to visit our relatives and friends.
it’s a very interesting day and i like spring festival very much!
Chinese Spring Festival celebrates the end of winter and the warmth of spring . It begins on the last day of the lunar year , ends in the 15th day of lunar new year , and is also the Lantern Festival .
Several days before the new year , people begin to prepare . Farmers kill pigs , sheep , cocks and hens . City dwellers buy meat , fish and vegetables . Houses are cleaned .
During the Spring Festival people use red lantern and couplets to decorate a house . They put on all kinds of colored colthes . Most people often visit friends and relatives of together , and eat dumplings , fish , meat and other delicious food .
The children are looking forward to receiving red envelope money , so am I . I often play with my friends and set off fireworks . There are dragon and lion dances and some other carnival activities . I like watching these shows very much .
The Spring Festival is the beginning of the new year and happy beginning .
Last year’s Spring Festival is special. My uncle and my aunt came back from Shanghai. My family were very happy to keep the Spring Festival with them. And it was the most exciting festival of all the festivals.
On New Year’s Eve, my father and my uncle talked about their work together. My mum did some cooking with my aunt Grandparents and I watched the New Year TV programmes. At about six o’clock, we had a special family dinner. We all thought the dumplings were delicious.
On the first day of the New Year, we visited our relatives. In the afternoon, we went shopping in Jiefanf Road. My uncle bought some Jay’s CDs. He likes Jay’s music very much. There were so many people on the road. It was more alive than any other time of a year.the animals were more beautiful than in the city. We all enjoyed ourselves.
I had an interesting Spring Festival. How about you?
The Spring Festival is very important to Chinese people. In the past,people could not often have meat,rice or other delicious food. They could only eat these during the Spring festival. So every year they hoped that the Spring Festival would come soon. Now, although people‘s life is much better,and we can eat the delicious foods everyday. People still like the festival. Because most people can have a long holiday,and we are free to go on a trip or visit our friends or have parties with our family. In the evenings,we can have a big meal in the restaurant or stay at home with family and watch the TV programs.
I like the Spring Festival very much. How wonderful the Spring Festival is!
我非常喜欢春节。春节是多么的美妙啊!
The Spring Festival is coming soon, I feel so excited, my parents will be home and get together with me. They are busy all the time and have less vacation, they told me that they would have 7 days off and promised to stay with me. I have made some plans for the coming festival and I can’t wait to carry them out.
At the eve of the Spring Festival, my parents decide to go back to my grandparents’ house, we will spend the important day together. It has been three years since we get united last time, I miss the happy atmosphere, we talked so happily. I also miss my grandparents’ food, it is so delicious, my grandma always knows how to satisfy my stomach.
Spring Festival is my favorite among all the Chinese traditional festival. The first reason why I love it the most is because I can get lucky money on that festival. It is the Chinese custom that the old will give children lucky money on Spring Festival to wish a good luck for the young generation. Moreover, people everywhere on those days are full of happiness. Quarrel, fight and abuse are almost disappeared at that time. Meanwhile, my mother will make a big meal for us to celebrate. Everyone will forget the unhappy thing they meet, instead remembering to appreciate life to wish a better future. That is my favorite festival.
