中秋节 ,是我国众多传统节日之一,千百年来,形成了深厚的独特中秋 文化 。在中秋节到来之际,品赏一下中秋文化,倍添节日情趣。下面是我带来的关于中秋节的经典 英语 故事 ，欢迎阅读!关于中秋节的经典英语故事篇一 关于月亮的 传说 Hou Yi (后羿) was a great archer(射手) and architect(建筑家), who shot down nine extra(多余的) suns that had suddenly appeared in the sky and thus(因此) kept the earth from being scorched(烤焦). He also built a palace of jade(翡翠) for the Goddess of the Western Heaven(西王母). For this, he was rewarded with a pill containing the elixir(长生不老药) of immortality(不朽), but with strings attached--he must fast(斋戒) and pray for a year before taking it. His wife, Chang E (嫦娥), whose beauty was surpassed(超过) only by her curiosity, discovered and swallowed(吞) the pill and in no time soared(高飞) to the moon and became a permanent(永久) resident(居民) there. Upon reaching the moon, Chang E, in dismay(沮丧), coughed up the pill, which turned into a jade rabbit that, day and night, pounds out a celestial(天上的) elixir for the immortals. Another permanent lunar resident of Chinese origin(出身) is Wu Kang (吴刚), a shiftless(偷懒的) fellow who changed apprenticeships(学徒年限) all the time before disappointing(使失望) his last master, who was an immortal. From him Wu learned to be immortal himself, but he was punished(惩罚) by being required to chop(砍) down a cassia(肉桂) tree in the moon, an impossible mission. The cut in the tree heals(痊愈) completely the same day, so Wu Kang is still chopping away for eternity(永远). Some Chinese crave(渴求) to drink his cassia blossom wine(桂花酒). The Chinese believe that the moon is at its largest and brightest, and Chang E at her most beautiful, on the 15th night of the eighth lunar(阴历) month. They are at least half-right, for at that time most of China is in the dry season and the moon looms brightest. It's also cool then, a perfect time to celebrate the harvest which has just concluded; hence(因此), the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Harvest Festival. The festival is a time for family reunions(团聚) to appreciate the moon (赏月) and eat moon cakes together. Bathed in bright moonshine and with the company(陪伴) of chrysanthemum(菊花) and cassia blossoms, poets(诗人) eat crab meat(蟹肉) and moon cake, drink tea and wine, and versify the night away. 关于中秋节的经典英语故事篇二 The Mid-Autumn Festival has all interesting history. Long ago in one of the dynasties of China there was a king who was very cruel to the people and did not manage the country well. The people were so angry that some brave ones suggested killing the king. So they wrote notes telling about the meeting place and time and put them into cakes. On the 15th day of the 8th lunar month every person was told to buy the cakes. When they ate them they discovered the notes. So they gathered together to make a sudden attack on the king. From then on the Chinese people celebrate on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month and eat moon cakes in memory of that important event. When the Mid-Autumn Festival is near, shop windows are beautifully decorated. Many moon cakes are displayed for people to buy. People send presents such aswine, fruits and moon cakes to their friends and relatives. In the evening of the day, they have a feast. After the feast, they go out to the garden to look at the moon. The children run and laugh on the streets. It is believed that the moon is at her brightest on this night. Many poems have been written about it, and poets are never tired of reading and writing such poems. In Chinese literature, the moon of the Mid Autumn Festival has been compared to a looking-glass, a jade rabbit, and so on. It seems that Chinese literature takes far more interest in the moon than in the sun. 关于中秋节的经典英语故事篇三 In China, Mid-autumn Day is considered to be a symbol of family reunion . On this day, all the family members gather together at home to celebrate this special occasion. Last year, I could not celebrate the festival with my family because I was in university. However, this special day left a deep impression on me. I still remember the atmosphere of that evening. All the students who could not go back home assembled in our classroom, having a party to celebrate this traditional festival. We tried our best to show our own enthusiasm. As an ethnic minority, I performed a peacock dance, which received warm applause. After the two-hour party, we went out to the playground and sat together to appreciate the moon because it is a tradition on Mid-autumn Day. We ate moon cakes, played cards, and listened to romantic poems recited by one of our classmates. In that harmonious atmosphere, nobody felt lonely or homesick even though we were far away from our homes. Thanks to our classmates, I experienced such a colorful and interesting Mid-autumn Day at my university. Thus, I learned to value all the festivals I spent during my university life.

One day all 10 suns appeared at once, scorching the planet with their heat. It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hou Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns.

Hou Yi ignored her advice and, corrupted by fame and fortune, became a tyrannical leader.
