11 中国传统节日重阳节 重阳节 中国传统节日 重阳节，又称登高节，老年节，中国民间传统节日，节期在每年农历九月初九日。“九”数在《易经》中为阳数，“九九”两阳数相重，故曰“重阳”；因日与月皆逢九，故又称为“重九”。九九归真，一元肇始，古人认为九九重阳是吉祥的日子。 3张 古时民间在重阳节有登高祈福、拜神祭祖及饮宴祈寿等习俗。传承至今，又添加了敬老等内涵。登高赏秋与感恩敬老是当今重阳节日活动的两大重要主题。同时，重阳节还有吃重阳糕、重阳馍、糍粑重阳糕、菊花酒、菊花汤、菊花菜的饮食习俗。 重阳节始于远古, 形成于春秋战国, 普及于西汉, 鼎盛于唐代以后。重阳节发端于远古祭祀活动；春秋时期，已有在九月农作物丰收之时祭天帝的活动；汉朝时期，据说汉高祖刘邦爱妃戚夫人的侍女并被赶出皇宫流落民间，将重阳节饮宴、赏菊等风尚传入民间。受道教思想的影响, 自汉代起重阳节有了求寿, 追求长生的习俗；魏晋时期，重阳日有了饮酒、赏菊的做法；唐代重阳节被正式定为节日；到明代，九月重阳皇宫上下要一起吃花糕以庆贺，皇帝要亲自到万岁山登高，以畅秋志，此风俗一直流传到清代。 2006年5月20日，重阳节被国务院列入首批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。2012年全国人大常委会修订通过的《中华人民共和国老年人权益保障法》规定每年农历九月初九为老年节。 一、完形填空 Dads have Father’s Day.
