09 中国传统节日端午节-2024-2025学年八年级英语时文热点专项训练

09 中国传统节日端午节 端午节 中国四大传统节日之一 端午节（Dragon Boat Festival），又称端阳节、龙舟节、重五节、天中节等，是集拜神祭祖、祈福辟邪、欢庆娱乐及饮食为一体的民俗大节，与春节、清明节、中秋节并称为中国四大传统节日，2008年被列为国家法定节假日，2009年9月端午节成为中国首个入选世界非遗的节日。 端午节源于自然天象崇拜，由上古时代祭龙演变而来，民间传说端午节尚有纪念伍子胥、孝女曹娥、介子推、廉吏陈临、越王勾践的说法，但最广为流传是纪念屈原，传说战国时期的楚国诗人屈原在五月初五跳汨罗江自尽，楚国人不舍贤臣屈原，为避免屈原肉身被江鱼分食，人们自发荡舟江河以驱散鱼群，或投米团入江中，以求得屈原肉身的保全。后来这个风俗流传下来，逐渐发展成为赛龙舟和吃粽子的端午习俗。 “端午”亦称“端五”，“端”在古汉语中有开头、初始的意思，古人习惯把五月的前几天分别以端来称呼。传统节日素来与传统文化相辅相成。历代诗词中描述了端午景象及缅怀古人的诗词主要有苏轼《浣溪沙·端午》、陆游《乙卯重五诗》、刘禹锡《竞渡曲》等 一、完形填空 A Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Festival is an old festival in China.
