春节英文介绍:

waking up on new year, everybody dresses up. first they extend greetings to their parents. then each child will get money as a new year gift, wrapped up in red paper. people in northern china will eat jiaozi, or dumplings, for breakfast, as they think “jiaozi” in sound means “bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new”. also, the shape of the dumpling is like gold ingot from ancient china. so people eat them and wish for money and treasure.

burning fireworks was once the most typical custom on the spring festival. people thought the spluttering sound could help drive away evil spirits. however, such an activity was completely or partially forbidden in big cities once the government took security, noise and pollution factors into consideration. as a replacement, some buy tapes with firecracker sounds to listen to, some break little balloons to get the sound too, while others buy firecracker handicrafts to hang in the living room.

the lively atmosphere not only fills every household, but permeates to streets and lanes. a series of activities such as lion dancing, dragon lantern dancing, lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held for days. the spring festival then comes to an end when the lantern festival is finished.
