关于中国年的英语手抄报内容写什么

What does the holiday mean?

这个节日有什么含义吗?

The term "pass year" is used for the Spring Festival (Chinese New

Year). The word "Year" in Chinese characters used to mean a horrible

beast. To combat the beast, the Chinese hang "good luck" wishes on

red paper on the door and use fireworks in the belief that the beast

fears red and fire. This tradition in many ways resemble the Western

belief of using garlic and crosses to fight vampires.

中文中“过年”这个词组用以表示对春节(中国新年)的庆祝。“年”这个字在中文里是一种恐怖的怪兽。因为“年”害怕红色和火，所以中国人会在门上悬挂“春联”写上美好祝福，并放鞭炮来赶跑它。这个传统有点类似西方人用大蒜和十字架吓跑吸血鬼的传统。

Why New Year is so special?

为什么新年那么特别呢?

The Chinese zodiac features 12 animals in the sequence of Rat, Ox,

Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and

Pig. This year is the year of Tiger. Each animal represents a different

"personality". According to legend, people held a conference with all

the animals, informing them that they would pick the 12 to represent

the zodiac. However, in spite of being fast, the cat was not picked as its

then-close friend, the rat, did not wake it. This action sparked off a

rivalry that continues till this day.

中国的十二生肖代表了十二种动物，他们的顺序是：鼠、牛、兔、龙、蛇、马、羊、猴、鸡、狗和猪。今年是虎年。每一种动物有他们自己的“性格”。根据传说，人们当初和动物们开了一个会，最先到会的动物们就可以进入十二生肖。而身为猫最好的朋友，老鼠却没有把猫叫醒去开会。因此，它们之间的战争一直持续到今天。
