(一)Spring Festival is the most important festival in China .It’s to celebrate the lunar calendar ‘s new year .In the evening before the Spring Festival ,families get together and have a big meal .In many places people like to set off firecrackers .Dumplings are the most traditional food .Children like the festival very much ,because they can have delicious food and wear new clothes .They can also get some money from their parents.This money is given to children for good luck .People put New Year scrolls on the wall for good fortune .
The Spring Festival lasts about 15 days long .People visit relatives and friends with the words “Have all your wishes ”.People enjoy the Spring Festival ,during this time they can have a good rest .
(二)Probably more food is consumed during the New Year celebrations than any other time of the year.Vast amounts of traditional food is prepared for family and friends,as well as those close to us who have died.
On New Year's Day,the Chinese family will eat a vegetarian dish called jai.Although the various ingredients in jai are root vegetables or fibrous vegetables,many people attribute various superstitious aspects to them.
Other foods include a whole fish,to represent togetherness and abundance,and a chicken for prosperity.The chicken must be presented with a head,tail and feet to symbolize completeness.Noodles should be uncut,as they represent long life.
In south China,the favorite and most typical dishes were nian gao,sweet steamed glutinous rice（糯米）pudding and zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped up in reed（芦苇）leaves),another popular delicacy.
In the north,steamed-wheat bread (man tou) and small meat dumplings were the preferred food.The tremendous amount of food prepared at this time was meant to symbolize abundance and wealth for the household
(三)My Spring Festival
My Spring Festival was great.Before the Chinese New Year,my families were all going to my grandparents’.Many of my relatives there were playing all the night.At night,we set off firecrackers.The voice was very loud,cars parked far from us were sounding.Maybe they feared the voice too.
The first day of the Chinese New Year,we all got up early.We said “Happy New Year!” or “Good luck this year!” to each other and get money from them.We visited our relatives all day.That made me feel very tired but very happy because I also can get money.
The second day of the New Year,I slept during the morning.In the afternoon,I went to the beautiful countryside,and visited the Yi River,it is very wide,about 1 kilometer.
Next day,we left my grandparents’ home for Qingdao.The expressway had been frozen.It was terrible!So we could only run by at a slow speed.
This festival was great,I love Spring Festival!
Chinese New Year
Chinese New Year is a Chinese traditional festival.We also call it the Spring Festival.It is on lunar January 1st.
On New Year’s Eve,all the people sit around the desk and have a big family dinner.There are some vegetables,some fish,some meat,some fruits and some drink like juice,Coke,Pepsi and some nice wine.Overall,this is a good and delicious dinner.After dinner,we always watch TV New Year progammes.We have a wonderful evening on New Year’s Eve.
On the first day of the Spring Festival,most of people get up early and say “happy new year” to each other.For breakfast,people often eat dumplings and baozi.After breakfast,people often make many delicious foods,and children often play cards,computer games and fireworks.On the second and third day,we visit friends and relatives.
Everyone is busy on Chinese New Year,and everyone is happy,too.
