One of my favorite traditional festivals can be written in 1 hour: Spring Festival.

The Spring Festival in my hometown is the most important festival in our country and the biggest festival in a year. Every family will celebrate. Some ethnic groups will also hold some activities to celebrate the Spring Festival, such as dragon and lion dancing, storytelling and singing, roller boating, walking on stilts and yangko dancing. A year has passed, and adults and children are busy. It's really a pleasure to prepare new year's goods, clean the house and worship the ancestors! Sticking Spring Festival couplets is an essential project. Or do it yourself or entrust someone to do it for you, and write the harvest of one year and the hope of the next year into this small Spring Festival couplets. Students, speaking of Spring Festival couplets, there is another story! Spring Festival couplets originated from the symbol of peach, which first appeared in the Zhou Dynasty. They are rectangular peach doors hanging on both sides of the gate. It is said that mahogany can kill ghosts and exorcise evil spirits. Because all the evil spirits in the world are afraid of "Shen Tu" and "Lei Yu" Er Shen, people carve them into peach trees and put them at home to ward off evil spirits. Later, people simply carved the names of the two gods on the mahogany board, thinking that this could also ward off evil spirits. This kind of peach board is called "peach symbol". During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, people began to write on peach symbols. On one occasion, Meng Changjun, the monarch of Shu, ordered the bachelor to write on the board on New Year's Eve. Because he couldn't see what the bachelor wrote, Meng Chang simply wrote "about every year, and the year of Jiazi is Changchun". This produced China's first Spring Festival couplets. Always go home to see, go home to see, no matter how far away the wanderer is, hurry home to reunite with his family and eat the family reunion dinner carefully prepared by his parents. In the past, people called it New Year's Eve. The meal was eaten slowly into the night. Watching the wonderful program of the Spring Festival Evening, surrounded by steaming hot pot, listening to the firecrackers outside the window, the family enjoyed family happiness. At this time, the happiest thing for children is that their elders will give lucky money. It is said that this practice existed in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Lucky money is also called "lucky money" and "lucky money" because it is homophonic. Lucky money can suppress evil spirits and let children celebrate the New Year safely. It is essential to visit relatives and friends during the Spring Festival. Relatives and friends get together, eat and drink sumptuously, send blessings to each other and discuss development plans. This activity will last until after the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month. The Spring Festival is not only about eating, drinking and having fun together, but more importantly, it embodies a national spirit of our country. It is a kind of affection, the pursuit of a better life, and the harmony and tranquility between people. Spring Festival The annual Spring Festival has arrived, but what I remember most is the New Year's Eve filled with a strong flavor of the year. New Year's Eve is a traditional festival in China. On this day, distant relatives will go home to reunite with their relatives and eat a table of New Year's Eve, which indicates that the family will always be together, love each other and be happy. In the evening, I ate the New Year's Eve, and the family watched CCTV's Spring Festival Gala together. The bell of 12 suddenly rang, and a burst of firecrackers came into my ears. I ran to the window and saw it. Wow! Firecrackers and fireworks sound one after another, as if to bid farewell to the past year. My curiosity brought me to the window, and the most striking thing was the fireworks that were "not flowers but more than flowers". More than a dozen fireworks pointed directly at the sky, and grains of "golden sand" spewed out and proudly bloomed in the air. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, everything, colorful, decorate the night sky beautifully and elegantly, and make the earth look like day. "Pass!" A big red fireball rose to the ground again. It flew into the air, and with a bang, it turned into thousands of small sparks, dragging its long, shiny tail and slowly falling down, like a dancing butterfly, spinning down from the air; Like dandelions scattered by the wind. I don't know which naughty boy. Colour them in colorful colors ... "All passed!" "Spy!" Look! Bright and colorful flames, dragging their long tails, rushed into the night sky; Look! A "cracked flower" rose there, and a "complacent flower" appeared here! Wow! Look at the "bud" there ... the sky suddenly becomes a garden of flowers, the ocean of flowers is dazzling, and the fire tree is full of silver flowers. How beautiful! What a lively New Year's Eve! "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh", accompanied by a crisp sound, beautiful fireworks, dragging a beautiful long tail, made their debut after drawing an arch in the sky. Fireworks are colorful, decorating the festive night sky into a beautiful big garden! Some are like fairy scattered flowers, clusters, rushing into the sky and slowly falling; Some, like autumn chrysanthemum and Chinese rose, are colorful and changeable; Some, like small meteors, suddenly jumped into the sky and disappeared into the night sky ... The earth and the sky suddenly boiled like pots. All kinds of festive voices are connected together, like a symphony that resounds through the sky. Really beautiful! Firecrackers are not to be outdone, and the sound of "bang, bang, bang" echoes in the sky. Firecrackers and firecrackers go straight into the night sky and fly in the air. The voice here is weak, and the voice there is up again, one after another, endlessly. Firecrackers and firecrackers converge into a harmonious and cheerful symphony, adding a beautiful scenery to this boundless night scene. Dazzling fireworks flashed in the air, firecrackers were deafening and every household was brightly lit. Colorful fireworks set off the earth and the sky. Isn't this gorgeous color a symbol of the bright future of our motherland? The Mid-Autumn Festival in my hometown is a beautiful and peaceful night. Every family gets together, tastes moon cakes and fruits, and enjoys family happiness. Everyone wants the Mid-Autumn Festival to be a family reunion, which is human nature, but it is always impossible for every family to do so. My father is a TV reporter. Because of his busy work, he can't spend a few Mid-Autumn Festival with us. Thinking of this, I can't help but think of Su Shi's "Water Tune Song Tou": "I hope people will live for a long time and have good scenery thousands of miles away." Today is the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, and it is also the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. In the evening, my mother and I went back to my grandmother's house for the New Year. After the reunion dinner, my brother and I went to the rooftop to enjoy the moon. The moon is shyly covered with layers of veils. After a long time, it gently lifted the veil and gradually revealed its glowing face. I looked up at the moon carefully, and my heart was full of infinite reverie about the distant moon and sky. . . . . The younger brother looked at the bright moon in the sky, turned around and asked wittily, "Sister, is this a silver plate?" I feel angry and funny after hearing this sentence. He must have remembered the ancient poem "Gulangyue" that I taught him. He was deliberately showing off. So, we read to the moon: "When I was young, I didn't know the moon, so I called it a white jade plate. I also suspect that Yao Taijing is flying on the other side of Qingyun Mountain. " While chatting, we ate moon cakes with relish, including five kernels, lotus seeds and barbecued pork ... My favorite is double yellow. Take a bite, it's sweet and delicious! How time flies! In a blink of an eye, the night was already deep, so we had to go home reluctantly. I wonder what the Mid-Autumn Festival will be like next year. Mid-Autumn Festival in my hometown When I was a child, I grew up in the countryside and have been looking forward to the festival. Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival are the two most important festivals in my hometown. Perhaps it was because the living standard was relatively low at that time, and the family only improved their lives during the holidays; Perhaps it is a holiday as soon as the festival is over, and there will always be some entertainment activities to make you have a good time; Maybe both. In a word, adults are very busy during holidays. But adults are very busy and have a kind of relaxation every holiday. Of course, we carefree children are the happiest. During the Spring Festival, although it coincides with the off-season, it always feels busy every year. Only the Mid-Autumn Festival gives people a special happiness, a spiritual rest and a special desire. When I think about it later, it seems that it is caused by different moods. I like the artistic conception of Mid-Autumn Festival. That is not only the savings of harvest, but also the beginning of harvest. She said she was saving money because the summer harvest was coming. It is said that she started because autumn came with her fruitful steps, melting the joy of people's upcoming harvest. I think only people who have experienced rural life experience will have such feelings, such a state of mind and such deep affection. I like the artistic conception of Mid-Autumn Festival. In the round moonlight, round moon cakes and apples are ripe, and pears, grapes and other fruits are also on the market. In the moonlight, people are tasting holiday food and talking about harvest. After enjoying the moon, I miss my relatives in a foreign land. Actually, I like the artistic conception of Mid-Autumn Festival. The moon cake looks like a big cake, thick, fresh noodles and fresh fillings. Whether steamed or baked, there are patterns of the moon depicted in the farmer's bowl and petals carved by osmanthus. The stuffing is also very special. The main ingredient is red pond, which contains sesame, red silk, nuts and raisins. Newly made moon cakes, steamed, soft and delicious, suitable for the elderly; Baked, tender outside, young people have a special liking. You see, the moon cakes that have just been served are steaming hot, and a fragrance is coming to my face. It's really mouth watering! How many years have passed, although there are many kinds of moon cakes on the market now, and all kinds of fruits and vegetables are readily available, I still like to eat moon cakes made by my mother. Although the pattern of moon cakes has not changed much, the pattern is always so clear, so uniform and so beautiful. So as soon as I catch up with the Mid-Autumn Festival and go home, I always have to eat two big pieces, which are delicious and sweet.

On festive days, people in China always drink a little wine. It used to be spirit Erguotou and other high-alcohol liquors. Now, state banquet wines such as remy martin and Maotai are also on people's tables. All these indicate the rise of the motherland's economy and the prosperity of the people. After more than 20 years of reform and opening up, well-off life is no longer a blueprint plan and idea, but gradually becomes a real life photo of thousands of families. I like the artistic conception of Mid-Autumn Festival. She can bring me new feelings, new experiences and new gains every year. I am willing to feel the care of my loved ones, taste the philosophy of life and experience the ever-changing changes in my hometown in this artistic conception. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming. I hope this year's Mid-Autumn Festival will be rounder and brighter. I hope my relatives will be healthier and my hometown will be more beautiful and rich. I also sincerely hope that the motherland will be more prosperous. Perhaps this is the true meaning of my Mid-Autumn Festival complex.
