Unit 1 Festivals and Celebrations
Period Ⅰ Listening and Speaking & Listening and Talking
The Spring Festival is the first day of the Chinese lunar calendar①. When the Spring Festival is approaching, people are busy purchasing② goods, cleaning the house, cooking traditional food, pasting Spring Festival couplets, and hanging Spring Festival pictures. Having a reunion dinner is the main activity on the Spring Festival. Dumplings are essential③ to the dinner because dumplings represent reunion and good
fortune. The whole family gather to enjoy quality time. On the Spring Festival (the Chinese Lunar New Year's Day), people in new clothes visit each other, and give lucky money to kids to send good wishes. During the Spring Festival holidays, all kinds of celebrations are held, including temple fairs, performances, and lantern exhibitions which last nearly half a month.
春节是中国农历的第一天。临近春节时,人们忙着采购物品、打扫房屋、做传统食物、贴春联和挂年画。春节最重要的活动是吃团圆饭。饺子是团圆饭中必不可少的,因为饺子代表着团圆和好运。所有家庭成员
围坐在一起享受美好时光。春节(中国农历新年)当天,换上了新衣服的人们互相拜访,并给孩子们压岁钱以送上祝福。在春节假期期间,人们会举行各种各样的庆祝活动,包括庙会、表演和持续近半个月的灯展。
The Lantern Festival, with a history of more than 2,000 years, falls on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar calendar. It marks the end of the Spring Festival celebrations and is also the first major festival after the Chinese Lunar New Year's Day.People across China hold various activities to celebrate the festival, including eating yuanxiao(small rice balls filled with meat, vegetables or white sugar),viewing decorative④ lanterns and guessing lantern riddles.
有两千多年历史的元宵节是在中国农历的正月十五这一天。它标志着春节庆祝活动的结束,也是中国新年后的第一个重大节日。中国各地的人们会举行各种各样的活动来庆祝这一节日,包括吃元宵(包裹着肉、蔬菜或白糖的小的米圆子)、赏花灯和猜灯谜等。
The Dragon Boat Festival is on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year. It is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. The Dragon Boat Festival is a way to commemorate⑤ a great ancient poet named Qu Yuan. The customs vary a lot in different areas of the country, but most of the families will hang the picture of Zhong Kui, calamus⑥ and wormwood⑦ in their houses. People have Dragon Boat Races, eat zongzi (dumplings made of glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves) and carry a spice bag around with them.
端午节是在每年农历的五月初五这一天。它是中国最重要的传统节日之一。端午节是纪念古代伟大诗人屈原的一种方式。各地的习俗各不相同,但大多数家庭都会在家里挂钟馗像、菖蒲和艾草。人们进行龙舟比赛、吃粽子(用竹叶或芦苇叶包成的糯米团子),并随身携带香包。
The MidAutumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month. From ancient times, it has been customary⑧ for Chinese to reunite with family members and enjoy a sweet mooncake while observing the beautiful moon.In Chinese tradition, mooncakes stand for reunion, happiness and the wellbeing of each family. Children often gather around their parents and grandparents, listening to stories about Chang'e and Yutu with interest. Chinese people all around the world share the same tradition. Just like an ancient Chinese poem says, “Over the sea grows
the moon bright; we gaze on it far, far apart.”
中秋节是在农历的八月十五这一天。 从古代起,中国人就有与家人团聚和一边赏月一边吃月饼的习俗。 在中国的传统中,月饼代表着每个家庭的团圆、幸福和安康。 孩子们经常聚集在父母和祖父母身边,饶有兴趣地听着嫦娥和玉兔的故事。 世界各地的中国人都有相同的传统。 正如一首中国古诗所说:“海上生明月,天涯共此时。”
