  用英语介绍端午节

学习啦在线学习网   关于端午节的“前世今生”众说纷纭,其中,最为大家所熟悉的是纪念爱国诗人屈原 (In order to commemorate patriotic Poet Qu Yuan who jumped into Miluo River.The local people living adjacent to the Miluo River rushed into their boats to search.)。人们非常欣赏这位爱国诗人的高尚情操和出众才华,更对他投江自尽的结局深表同情。

  虽然也可以将端午节称之为Duanwu Festival,但如果对外国人说端午节尽可能不要说The Duanwu Festival,因为大多数外国人不明为何物,而The Dragon Boat许多人却很熟悉。

  1.吃粽子

  Eating Zongzi

  Glutinous rice filled with meat, nuts or bean paste and wrapped in bamboo leaves. It is associated with Dragon Boat Festival with historical meaning. The custom of eating zongzi is now popular in North and South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asian nations.

  糯米一般先用肉、坚果或者豆沙馅填充起来,然后再用竹叶包裹起来。这是和端午节的历史意义紧密结合在一起的。吃粽子的习俗,现在已经在朝鲜、韩国、日本和东南亚国家流行开来。

  南方一般用竹叶包粽子,北方一般用芦苇叶包粽子。粽子常以红枣Chinese red date作馅。人们也会把糯米(sticky / glutinous rice)浸在碱水(alkaline water)里,这样粽子质地就会更柔软。但是一些南方地区包粽子基本上不用红枣,而用肉或豆沙。我国最著名的粽子还属嘉兴粽子,嘉兴的粽子填料用的是鸡肉和“八宝”,也有包红豆沙和咸蛋黄的。

  悬艾叶菖蒲

  Hanging mugwort and calamus

  挂钟馗像

学习啦在线学习网   Hanging pictures of Zhong Kui

  People hang branches of moxa and calamus around the doors of their homes. And they display portraits of evil’s nemesis, Chung Kuei.

  “不效艾符趋习俗,但祈蒲酒话升平。”挂艾叶菖蒲和悬钟馗像,都是为了驱疾避凶,讨个吉利。

  拴五色丝线

  Tying five-color silk thread

  佩香囊

学习啦在线学习网   Wearing perfume pouch or scented sachets

学习啦在线学习网   On Dragon Boat Festival, parents also need to dress their children up with a perfume pouch. They first sew little bags with colorful silk cloth, then fill the bags with perfumes or herbal medicines, and finally string them with silk threads. The perfume pouch will be hung around the neck or tied to the front of a garment as an ornament. They are said to be able to ward off evil.People worship five colors in ancient China. On that day, the first issue after getting up for adults is to tie colored lines around the child’s wrists, ankles and neck.在端午节,父母会给孩子们戴上香包。他们首先用彩色的绸布缝制成小包,然后在小包里装上香料和草药,最后用丝线将小包缝上。香包被挂在孩子的脖子上或系在衣服的前面作为装饰。传说香包也可以驱魔辟邪。中国古代崇拜五色,以五色为吉祥色。因此,在端午节清晨,各家大人起床后第一件大事便是在孩子手腕、脚腕、脖子上拴五色线。

  "碧艾香蒲处处忙。谁家儿共女,庆端阳。细缠五色臂丝长。"

  五色线不可任意折断或丢弃,只能在夏季第一场大雨或第一次洗澡时,抛到河里。据说,戴五色线的儿童可以避开蛇蝎类毒虫的伤害;扔到河里,意味着让河水将瘟疫、疾病冲走,儿童由此可以保安康。

  赛龙舟

  Dragon boat racing

  Dragon boat racing is an indispensable part of the festival, held all over thecountry.As the gun is fired, people will see racers in dragon-shaped canoes pulling the oars harmoniously and hurriedly, accompanied by rapid drums, speeding toward their destination.

  赛龙舟是端午节重要的组成部分,在全国上下都会进行。枪声一响,人们就会看到龙舟上的运动员,伴随着快速的鼓点,迅速又整齐划一地划动船桨,冲向终点。

  相传古时楚国人因舍不得贤臣屈原投江死去,划船追赶拯救。他们争先恐后,追至洞庭湖时不见踪迹。之后每年五月五日划龙舟以纪念之。借划龙舟驱散江中之鱼,以免鱼吃掉屈原的身体。竞渡之习,盛行于吴、越、楚。
