元宵节的来历和风俗
%20The%20Lantern%20Festival%20falls%20on%20the%2015th%20day%20of%20the%201st%20lunar%20month,%20usually%20in%20February%20or%20March%20in%20the%20Gregorian%20calendar.%20As%20early%20as%20the%20Western%20Han%20Dynasty%20(206%20BC-AD%2025),%20it%20had%20become%20a%20festival%20with%20great%20significance.
%20元宵节在阴历正月十五,一般是公历二月或三月,早在我国西汉时期(公元前206年——公元25年)就变成一个重要节日了。
%20 %20The%20important%20activity%20of%20the%20day%20is%20watching%20lanterns.%20Throughout%20the%20Han%20
Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of Buddha's body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a grandfestival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China.
这一天重要的活动就是看灯啦。早在公元前206年至公元220年的汉代,释教就在我国盛行。有一位帝王传闻僧侣可以看到舍利,也就是佛被火化后留存在体内的东西,在阴历的正月十五这一天点灯祭奠佛祖,所以这位帝王就指令这一天在他的宫廷和古刹里点灯以体现他对佛祖的尊敬。此后,这项释教典礼打开变成一般民众的盛大节日,它的影响力从华夏区域一向延伸到整个我国。

直到今日,全国上下每年都会过元宵节。不一样形状和巨细的灯笼会悬挂在街上,招引许多的游人。孩子们会拿着克己的或买来的灯笼在街上闲逛,非常开心。

%20“猜灯谜”是节日的中心有些。灯笼的主人会将谜语写在一张纸条上并贴在灯笼上。假定游客能解开灯谜,他们就能将纸条拿下往来不断灯笼的主人那看答案是不是正确。假定答案是对的,他们将会得到一份小礼物。这项活动最早在宋朝(公元960-1279)呈现,当我们在赏灯的时分隔端。因为猜灯谜极具快乐喜爱性,又需要动脑筋,所今后来在全社会各阶层中收到广泛等待。

%20我们在元宵节的时分会吃元宵,因而这个节日也就叫做元宵节。“元宵”还有另外一个名字—汤圆,用糯米粉做皮,玫瑰花瓣、芝麻、豆酱、枣泥、胡桃肉、干果、糖和食用油做馅,做成的小面球团。汤圆可以煮、炸或许蒸来吃。吃起来甜甜的,很甘旨。而且,汤圆在我国和“团圆”这个词的发音类似,代表着团团圆圆。因而我们吃汤圆会标志着家庭的团圆、调和和高兴。

%20在元宵节之夜,天上明月高照,地上彩灯万盏。
%20On%20the%20Lantern%20Festival%20night,%20the%20moon%20illuminates%20the%20dark%20sky%20while%20many%20lanterns%20shine%20bright%20colors%20on%20the%20earth.
%20元宵夜观花灯的风俗初步于两千多年前的西汉时期。
%20The%20traditions%20of%20viewing%20decorative%20lanterns%20on%20this%20night%20began%20more%20than%20two%20thousand%20years%20ago%20in%20the%20Western%20Han%20Dynasty.
%20最早只是在皇宫中点灯祈福。
%20In%20the%20earlier%20times,%20those%20beautiful%20lanterns%20were%20only%20seen%20in%20the%20imperial%20palaces.
%20逐渐地演化成民间最盛大的灯节。
%20Slowly%20it%20evolved%20into%20a%20celebration%20on%20the%20grand%20scale%20for%20the%20ordinary%20folks%20everywhere.
%20在元宵节前许多天,我们就初步忙着用油纸、绸布、竹子和花朵等材料制造林林总总的灯笼。
%20A%20few%20days%20before%20the%20lantern%20festival,%20people%20begin%20gathering%20oiled%20paper,%20silk%20cloths,%20bamboo%20sticks%20and%20flower%20to%20make%20all%20types%20of%20lanterns.

%20元宵节也是一个浪漫的节日。
%20The%20Lantern%20Festival%20is%20also%20a%20romantic%20holiday.
%20在封建社会时,年青女孩不答应出外安适活动。
%20In%20feudal%20society,%20young%20girls%20were%20not%20allowed%20to%20go%20out%20freely.
%20但在元宵节晚上,她们却可以结伴出游赏识花灯。
%20But%20on%20the%20night%20of%20the%20Lantern%20Festival,%20they%20were%20allowed%20to%20view%20the%20lantern%20lights%20in%20groups.
%20未婚男女也常借着赏花灯与情人相会。

%20如今我们仍然会在元宵夜相邀一同去赏花灯。
%20Today%20people%20still%20invite%20others%20to%20view%20lanterns%20together.

%20在临水的当地,我们把做好的莲花灯放进河里,让灯顺流而下,带去自个对已逝亲人的怀念。
%20In%20places%20near%20water,%20people%20put%20Lotus%20Lanterns%20in%20the%20river%20to%20let%20them%20flow%20down%20stream,%20carrying%20the%20loss%20they%20feel%20for%20the%20relatives%20that%20have%20passed%20away.
%20在北方,传统风俗与现代科技相联系打开变成冰灯节。

%20猜%20灯谜是我国特有的文字游戏。
%20The%20Lantern%20Riddle%20is%20a%20special%20word-game%20played%20by%20the%20Chinese%20people.
%20我们不只制造出各种秀丽的灯笼供我们赏识,还方案出许多风趣的谜语。
%20The%20Chinese%20people%20not%20only%20craft%20many%20types%20of%20beautiful%20lanterns%20for%20the%20others%20to%20appreciate,%20but%20also%20create%20many%20interesting%20riddles.
%20传统的灯谜是直接写在灯笼上的。
%20The%20traditional%20riddles%20are%20written%20on%20the%20lanterns.
%20如今,我们在灯笼的下面贴上写了谜语的纸条,供观灯的人猜。
%20Today,%20many%20people%20glue%20a%20slip%20of%20paper%20with%20the%20riddle%20at%20the%20bottom%20of%20the%20lanterns%20for%20the%20viewers%20to%20solve.

%20Those%20who%20solve%20the%20riddles%20correctly%20will%20receive%20a%20prize%20from%20the%20riddle’s%20creator.
%20和其他的我国传统节日相同,元宵节也有自个的节日食物——“元宵”。
%20Just%20like%20China’s%20
other traditional holidays, the Lantern Festival also has its own special dish —“Yuan Xiao”, or sweet dumpling soup.
尽管“元宵”在南北两地叫法不一样,做法也不一样,但它们都是用糯米粉做皮儿。
%20Although%20the%20sweet%20dumplings%20differ%20in%20name%20and%20recipe%20from%20the%20North%20and%20South,%20they%20are%20always%20made%20with%20glutinous%20rice%20flour%20as%20the%20outside.
%20里边包上各种果仁和糖做成的馅儿。
%20The%20filling%20is%20usually%20composed%20of%20different%20kinds%20of%20fruit%20kernels%20and%20sugar.
%20包出来的形状是相同的——圆圆的、白白的,因为它和元宵夜的圆月相同,代表着团圆。
%20The%20sweet%20dumplings%20are%20always%20round%20and%20white,%20as%20it%20represents%20the%20moon%20on%20the%20night%20of%20the%20Lantern%20Festival.
