The Origin of the Spring Festival
The Spring festival is the oldest traditional festival in China, but not many people know
the origin (起源) and story behind it. Many existing (现存的) customs and activities of the Festival actually can be traced back to a popular story of a monster (怪物), Nian, which helps to explain why and how the festival is celebrated.

lt is widely believed that the word Nian,
was first name of the monster. It always came on the first day of New Year to kill animals and people. However,one day Nian was scared away (吓跑) by a boy who happened to be in red clothes.
happen to do sth 碰巧做某事。
3. 据相信,认为 it is believed
Therefore, in preparation for the New Year,
people began to buy new red clothes,hang red
lanterns and paste(粘贴) red spring couplets on doors. They also lit fireworks to scare Nian away. From then on, Nian never came back again.
