breadniangao,Customs Of The Spring Festival,The Spring Festival is a traditional Chinese festivaland also the most important one of the whole year.Through the development of thousands of years,a series of customs are still the same as before.,Sweeping the Dust(扫尘)“Dust”is homophonic(同音)with“chen”(尘)in Chinese,which means old and past.In this way,“sweeping the dust”before the Spring Festival means a thorough cleaning of houses to sweep away bad luck in the past year.This custom shows a good wish of putting away old things to welcome a new life.,Pasting/putting up Spring Couplets(贴春联),On the eve of the Spring Festival,every household will paste ondoors a spring couplet written on red paper to give a happy and prosperous(繁荣的)atmosphere of the Festival.,Pasting Paper-cuts and“Up-sided Fu”(贴窗花和“福”字),Paper-cuts,usually with lucky patterns,give a happy and prosperous atmosphere of the Festival and express the good wishes of Chinese people looking forward to a good life.In addition to pasting paper-cuts on windows,it is common for Chinese to paste the character“fu(福)”,big or small,on walls or doors.“Fu”shows peoples yearning(向往)toward a good life.Some people even invert(倒置)the character“fu”to mean that blessing has arrived because“inverted(倒转的)”is a homonym(同音)for“arrive”in Chinese.,Staying Up Late on New Years Eve(守岁)The tradition of staying up late to see New Year is originated from an interesting folk tale.In ancient China there lived a monster named Year,who was very terrible.Year always went out from its burrow(洞穴)on New Years Eve to eat people.Therefore,on every New Years Eve,every household would have supper together.After dinner,no one dared go to sleep and all the family members would sit together,chatting and emboldening(壮胆)each other.Gradually the habit of staying up late on New Years Eve is formed.Thus in China,“celebrating the Spring Festival”is also called“passing over the year(guo nian)”.,看春节联欢晚会 The CCTV New Years Gala,The New Years Gala is a variety show held by China Central Television(CCTV)since 1983.For every year at the turn of the Lunar New Year,the program begins at 8:00PM and lasts five or six hours.It brings laughter to billions of people and creates many popular words.For over twenty years,its value has gone far beyond a variety show.It is essential entertainment for the Chinese both at home and abroad.Many Chinese would like to watch the gala while having the dinner on New Years Eve.,Burning Firecrackers放鞭炮 The firecracker is a unique(特有的)product in China.In ancient China,the sound of burning bamboo tubes was used to scare away wild animals and evil spirits.With the invention of the gunpowder,“firecracker”is also called“鞭炮binpo”and used to create a joyful atmosphere.The first thing every Chinese household does is to burn firecrackers and fireworks,which means saying farewell/goodby to the old year and usher(迎接)in the new.,New Years Visit and Gift Money(拜年和压岁钱)On the first day of the Chinese lunar year,everybody puts on their best clothes and pays formal calls on their relatives and friends,wishing them all the luck in the coming year.Juniors will greet seniors,wishing them health and longevity(长寿),while seniors will give juniors some gift money as a wish for their safety in the coming year.When friends meet,they will wish each other happiness and prosperity with a big smile.With the development of the new technology,there is a change on the way of giving New Years greetings.In recent year,it is common to send New Years greetings by such modern means of communication as telephones,emails and text messages.,Eating“jiaozi”(吃饺子)On New Years Eve,the whole family will sit together to make jiaozi and celebrate the Spring Festival.The shape of jiaozi is like gold ingot from ancient China.So people eat them and wish for money and treasure.The tradition of having jiaozi is very important during the Spring Festival.You cannot have a complete Spring Festival without having jiaozi.,on the fifteenth day of the new year(15th,in the lunar calendar)lanterns:symbols of good fortune,happiness and health.,Lantern Festival,The Lantern Festival or Yuanxiao Jie is a traditional Chinese festival,which is on the 15th of the first month of the Chinese New Year.The festival marks the end of the celebrations of the Chinese New Year.“灯节”或者叫做“元宵节”是中国的传统佳节,在每年的农历正月十五这一天庆祝。元宵节的到来也标志着春节的结束。,This is a festival for people having fun.On the night of the festival,people go on streets with a variety of lanterns under the full moon,watching lions or dragon dancing,playing Chinese riddles and games,and lighting up firecrackers.There is really a lot of fun for the young and the old.按中国民间的传统,在这天上皓月高悬的夜晚,人们要点起彩灯万盏,以示庆贺。出门赏月、燃灯放焰、喜猜灯谜、共吃元宵,合家团聚、同庆佳节,其乐融融。,Yuanxiao is sticky,sweet and round in shape,symbolizing family unity,completeness and happiness.元宵口感粘糯,口味香甜,外观浑圆,象征着一家人团圆、美满和幸福。,Happy Chinese New Year!新年快乐A happy Spring Festival to you.恭贺春节。Best wishes for the holidays and happiness throughout the New Year.恭贺新禧,万事如意。May the joy and
