过年的传说及过年的来历

Chinese people held the first New Year Festival more than

3,000 years ago. Farmers gave thanks for the harvest and prayed.

They asked the gods for good crops in the coming year.

中国人庆祝中国传统新年已经有3000多年的历史了，农民感谢上苍赐予好的收成，同时祷告来年有好的收成。但是关于庆祝新年的背后，有一个故事，下面就是关于庆祝新年的传说。

But there is a story behind all the celebration, below is the

legend of how the Chinese New Year celebration began.

据传，有一个食人野兽叫“年”，有一张能一口吃掉好几个人的血盆大口。这个怪物在山上找不到吃的的时候，就会下山到附近村庄，攻击和吃掉所有能吃的动物，包括人。村民们整个冬天都在恐惧中度过。

According to legend, there was a man-eating wild monster

"Nian" with an extremely large mouth, capable of swallowing

several people in a single bite. This beast appeared in a country

village, towards the end of winter when there was nothing to eat

it would visit the villages and attack and eat whatever it could.

The villagers would live in terror over the winter.

据传说，有一个人吃的野生怪物“年”一个非常大的口，吞咽几个人在一个单一的叮咬。此兽出现在乡村，对冬季结束时，有没有吃的，它会到村里去，什么能吃就吃什么，所以整个冬天村民都生活在恐惧之中。

The next year it returned and the same thing happened. The

monster seemed too strong to be defeated. So all the villagers

would take their old and young deep into the mountains to hide

from Nian.

来年冬天，怪兽如期而至，同样的悲剧再次发生，怪兽之强壮非常人能够击倒，所以所有村民都携带全家老小到深山躲藏，以避免成为“年”的食物

One day, a wise old man passed through the village and told

an old woman, "I will teach you how to scare Nian away!"

有一天，一个充满智慧的老人经过村庄，告诉一个老妇人：“我叫你怎么把年吓跑”。

That evening when Nian arrived at the village, he saw that all

the houses were dark except the house in which an old woman

lived. Nian approached the house, licking his lips in anticipation.

Suddenly, the deafening noise of firecrackers sounded endlessly.

当天晚上，当年踏进村子时，它见村里所有的屋子没有灯光，除了那个老夫人家亮着灯。年靠房子，舔着嘴唇，期待着自己的晚餐。突然，震耳欲聋的鞭炮声在耳边响个不停。

The monster was startled and jumped. Suddenly he realized

that the house was covered in red paper. This scared him even

more and it ran off into the mountains. When the villagers

returned they saw that the old woman was unharmed! People

later learned that "nian" was afraid of loud noises and the color

red, The villagers came together and agreed that when it was

time for Nian's annual visit towards the end of winter they would

start a fire in front of every door and not go to sleep but rather

make noise.

“年”被鞭炮声吓得跳起来，突然发现那个房子外面贴着红纸，这个把怪兽吓得落荒而逃，村民回到村庄发现老妇人毫发无伤。后来，村民知道了这个叫“年”的怪兽害怕噪声和红色，于是村里的村名都赞同，在“年”下一次“光顾”村庄的时候，家家户户都在门前点起火，守岁然后制造“动静”。

The following year, the villagers were ready for it. They set off

firecrackers, lit all their lamps and decorated their houses in red,

they paste red paper on the doors, wear red clothing, hang up

red lanterns. They made loud music, play the gong and drums

and they dance and burn the fireworks whenever Nian was about

to arrive, to scared away the beast.

第二年，村名们都做足了准备，他们准备好了鞭炮，点燃了所有的灯，把房子装饰橙红色，在门上贴红纸，穿红色的衣服，手里拎着红灯笼。她们敲锣打鼓大声弹唱，跳舞，走到哪里鞭炮就点到哪里。

Nian had not come down the mountain to cause any trouble

thereafter.

年从此以后再没敢到这个村里惹麻烦了

This eventually become a tradition of China and leads to the

celebration for another year of safe life. Chinese people celebrate

in remembrance of this legend and still continues till today!

这就成了中国的一个传统，庆祝一年的平安，中国人以此传说庆祝新年，直到今天。

关于春节的英语故事篇二

The Origin of Chinese New Year The Chinese New Year is now

popularly known as the SpringFestival because it starts from the

Begining of Spring (the first of the twenty-four terms

incoodination with the changes of Nature)。 Its origin is too old

to be traced. Severalexplanations are hanging around. All agree，

however， that the word Nian， which in modernChinese solely

means year， was originally the name of a monster beast that

started to prey onpeople the night before the beginning of a new

year.

One legend goes that the beast Nian had a very big mouth

that would swallow a great manypeople with one bite. People

were very scared. One day， an old man came to their rescue，

offering to subdue Nian. To Nian he said， I hear say that you are

very capable， but can youswallow the other beasts of prey on

earth instead of people who are by no means of yourworthy

opponents? So， it did swallow many of the beasts of prey on

earth that alsoharrassed people and their domestic animals from

time to time.

After that， the old man disappeared riding the beast Nian.

He turned out to be an immortalgod. Now that Nian is gone and

other beasts of prey are also scared into forests， peoplebegin

to enjoy their peaceful life. Before the old man left， he had told

people to put up redpaper decorations on their windows and

doors at each year's end to scare away Nian in case itsneaked

back again， because red is the color the beast feared the most.

From then on， the tradition of observing the conquest of

Nian is carried on from generation togeneration. The term Guo

Nian， which may mean Survive the Nian becomes today

Celebratethe (New) Year as the word guo in Chinese having both

the meaning of pass-over andobserve. The custom of putting up

red paper and firing fire-crackers to scare away Nian shouldit

have a chance to run loose is still around. However， people

today have long forgotten whythey are doing all this， except

that they feel the color and the sound add to the excitement

ofthe celebration.

关于春节的英语故事篇三

贴春联的来历

spring couplets, a chinese new year decoration, are an

integral part of china's new year. their beginnings go back as far

as the origins of new year's festivities.

春联，是中国新年的装饰，没有春联，春节就不完整。春联的来历就要说到新年的来历

according to legends in the china's ancient past there was a

monster known as nian who often came down from the

mountains to eat livestock and locals. it was discovered that he

was afraid of the color red and so red paper was placed around

doors and windows of houses and poems for good luck were

added to them. the houses with the red paper were avoided by

the monster, so its inhabitants were spared. the tradition has

continued until today.

根据中国古代历史传说中记载，有一个叫“年的”怪物经常从山上到村子里吃牲畜。后来人们发现这个怪物怕洪泽，所以就在门上，窗户上贴红纸，红纸上面还写一些增加转运的诗。这样，怪兽害怕贴满红纸的屋子，所以这个风俗被流传了下来，一直直到今天。

couplets are traditionally painted with black ink on two

pieces of red paper which is then hung on either side of a door.

对联传统的来讲是用黑墨在两张红纸上写字，然后贴在门的两侧。

one half is hung on either side. there is an extra piece of

paper painted with words of prosperity hung above the door

frame. traditionally the couplets are poems consisting of two

lines of either four or five characters. they are painted from top

to bottom, right to left.

一边贴张。另外还有一个横批写着意味繁荣之意之字贴在门框的上方。传统的对联，上联合下联是4个或5个字，是一对诗。写对联一般是从上到下，从右到左。

different couplets have different themes. for farmers the

couplets are meant to bring bounty to them, whereas

businessmen's couplets are meant to bring money. traditionally

scholars would paint couplets and give them to their friends,

relatives, and the public. many people choose to create their own

couplets. many times door god or the character "fu"is added to

doors along with the couplets.

不同的对联有不同的主题。比如，给农民的对联是带来好收成，商人挣跟多钱。传统学者会自己写对联赠予朋友或亲人。许多人会自己设计属于自己的对联。门神和福字一般都是和对联配套的贴在门上的。
