Junior high school composition "My happiest festival"

Looking forward to, looking forward to, finally approaching the end of the year, the Spring Festival is here.

As the days go by, the breath of the Spring Festival is getting stronger and stronger. Every household has a festive "blessing" in front of it. People in the street are busy buying new year's goods, and parents lead their children to buy new clothes in clothing stores. Many adults are busy cleaning their houses. All this tells us that the Spring Festival is coming and it looks so full of vitality.

The Spring Festival has finally arrived. As soon as the bell rang, the crackling firecrackers spread to every corner. There are already many children in new clothes playing on the grass outside the window. When I woke up from a deep sleep, my first reaction was that I was one year older, put on new clothes and played outside with my friends.

Adults set off firecrackers in their own yard, and the firecrackers are getting louder and louder. Many children stopped to watch while covering their ears. After the firecrackers, it is a paradise for children. The children rushed to the firecracker pile to look for unburned firecrackers and compare their numbers. Looking at the partners are seriously looking for it, I am also trying to find it with a small stick.

Every household has put up new couplets. Looking at a pair of Spring Festival couplets, I can't help thinking of a pair of couplets: "Qing Yu in the new year, Changchun in the new year". Everyone's front door is red, and I can't help but see the festive atmosphere. I also see people's hopes and blessings for the new year.

It is essential to pay a New Year call every year. Whenever I go to my grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings, my grandmother always brings me a cup of rock sugar tea soaked in rock sugar for me to drink. The sweetness is so sweet that I really want another drink. Then I said auspicious words to my grandmother. After the Chinese New Year, grandma will take out a red envelope from her pocket and put it into my hand. At this time, I don't have to look at my parents' faces as usual, but I will accept them generously.

After nightfall, people set off fireworks outside the house. At this exciting moment, at the moment of "3-2- 1", fireworks appeared everywhere, as if it were thunder. I'm busy coming out to watch. This is a great sight. The sky is charming black. With the brilliant fireworks, people are dazzled, red, purple and blue. People's laughter came from underground, and cheers floated in the festive night sky with fireworks!

The Spring Festival heralds the beginning of a new year. This year must be full of vitality and hope.

Setting off firecrackers during the Spring Festival

On the evening of Chinese New Year, I lay on the windowsill and looked out.

The lights are brightly lit outside and few people can be seen in the street. Even if there are people, they are setting off firecrackers. Only buses and taxis on the expressway are still serving the people.

Suddenly there was a scratching noise, and I was scared when I was meditating. A large group of firecrackers exploded in unison, and a large single firecracker exploded at once. The sound was deafening, and the fireworks flew into the sky, giving off colorful light and illuminating the whole sky. The children also set off some electric batons and firecrackers, as if to celebrate the arrival of the Spring Festival. The more you watch it, the happier you get, but many people hurt their hands by setting off firecrackers. Gradually, only fireworks are shining in the sky. Look at the colorful fireworks.

In a short time, people put off all the firecrackers to celebrate the Spring Festival, leaving only some residual shells, but in my heart, the Spring Festival is not fade away.

Soon the time for setting off firecrackers in the Spring Festival passed, and a new program began-watching TV.

Me and the New Year

I spent a very interesting Christmas in the snow. Listen carefully, the pace of the new year is approaching. Looking at the east, I just arrived in Chiang Kai-shek late and the sun was shining. We politely called him: Hello in the New Year!

In the past 365 days full of wind, frost, rain and snow, we have struggled, made progress, succeeded and failed. Our laughter, loss, confusion and confusion have all turned into beautiful memories. As Pushkin said in his poem: "The past will be infected with inexplicable acacia." Isn't it?

New Year is the starting point of time, and New Year's Day is the first milestone of time. On this day, we are thinking more about the future. Those upcoming undertakings, upcoming opportunities and bright prospects are looming ahead, waving to us with mysterious dreams and endless happiness. As a result, our hearts rekindled confidence and hope, regardless of fatigue and pain, and went through the storm without hesitation. The new year always comes at the coldest time of the year. However, "if winter comes, can spring be far behind?" Yes, countless poems and paintings are waiting for us to feel and describe: the sunny morning by the lake, the dusk by the path full of petals, the misty rain on the bluestone path in Jiangnan Lane, and the green wheat fields in the north and west. .....

Yes, although the road ahead is still bumpy and the cold wind is still whistling, we still keep moving forward for the promise we made to ourselves, for the eternal hope and beautiful vision. ...

Standing on the snow-white starting line of the New Year, facing tomorrow and the red sun rising in Ran Ran in the East, let's release the white dove in our hearts and sincerely say: Hello, New Year!

Unforgettable Spring Festival

The Spring Festival is coming again. With the cheers of children and the crisp firecrackers in the morning, it came quietly.

For many children, the arrival of the Spring Festival is happy. They celebrated the festival by singing and dancing. But for me, the Spring Festival is not so beautiful, and the arrival of the Spring Festival can't bring me joy. Because, I am a child of a poor family.

Every time I wake up in the morning of the Spring Festival, I think, "If only I could get my parents' lucky money unexpectedly in the morning and have a lot of snacks to eat! "I can't help jumping out of bed when I think about it, but the ruthless fact has to put out the fire of hope in my heart. I have to tell myself again: don't be wishful thinking, you are a poor child. Then, I had to sit at the door silently and look at the happy smiles of other children.

Another crisp sound of firecrackers pulled me back from the past. Yes, I should get up. Although I can't get my parents' lucky money and dazzling snacks, I can still afford a bed.

I finished washing and dressing at a breakneck speed. When I stepped out of the door, a scene in the hall caught my eye, yes! That's a snack from my parents, yes! Thinking of this, my mother came over with a brand-new 50 yuan RMB in her hand and said with infinite concern, "Happy New Year, Li. Here is your lucky money this year. Take it and don't lose it! " I was shocked at once. Q: "Mom, our family is in a bad situation. Why do we need lucky money?" Mom smiled: "Silly child, after so long reform and opening up, my family's situation is much better." My parents used to be sorry for you, but in the future, you don't have to be poor anymore, you can rest assured. " "There are snacks. Eat more. " I jumped up and down, ran to the dessert, grabbed a handful and ate happily.

I leaned against the door, holding snacks in one hand and lucky money from my mother in the other. Then I watched the scene of children fighting not far away and listened to the wishes of adults saying "get rich in the New Year". The firecrackers kept ringing in my ears, which made me feel carefree!

Happy Chinese New Year

Hope! I'm looking forward to it. Seeing that the Spring Festival is coming, I can't help laughing at this. Before the Spring Festival, people were beaming and full of energy. There is an endless stream of people shopping, some are buying New Year pictures, some are buying new year's goods, some are sitting in a fire box watching TV around the stove, some are playing mahjong and poker, and so on.

Anyway, the streets are full of colors, people and goods. I'm afraid people can't choose what they want to buy!

Before the Spring Festival, every household was brightly lit, and every household dressed up the house in a unique way, each with its own personality. They put the new year's goods they bought all over the floor. How to paste the bought New Year pictures depends on your own style and preferences. Some are posting, some are posting backwards, and some are posting askew, each with its own merits. People have already prepared all the dishes they bought, and only when the Spring Festival comes can they have a good meal. Every household has firecrackers, and people put on new clothes to welcome the New Year. Before the Spring Festival, when people go out, if they meet good friends, they always say, "Go to the streets!" "

People kill pigs and sheep and are busy preparing for the New Year.

When the Spring Festival comes, children get up early and go to their parents' room to start the traditional New Year greeting ceremony. The children said some auspicious words to their parents, who took out lucky money to make them happy. Everyone wishes good luck this year.

Some relatives and friends got together, sipping wine and delicacies and saying some happy words. The happiest thing is that we can save a lot of lucky money and then go shopping to buy many interesting things, such as cars, four-wheel drive cars, toy guns, football and so on. And we can make a lot of money as long as our mouths are sweeter and we say more blessings!

People have been playing until late at night, chewing delicious fruit in their mouths, putting firecrackers and fireworks in their hands ... adults and children are singing and dancing and having a good time!

Taste the Spring Festival

Probably everyone's attitude towards the Spring Festival has experienced such periodic changes. I liked festivals when I was young, but I was indifferent when I was young. Middle-aged people, like a child, I am full of feelings, longing and joy for the Spring Festival.

Now, I have fallen in love with the Spring Festival for the second time.

These days, the first thing I do when I get up every morning is to turn on the stereo, so that Mr. Li Huanzhi's Spring Festival overture can fill the whole room, and cheerful tunes can bring me a good mood all day.

After impetuous youth, I can finally calm down and taste the Spring Festival and life.

How much our ancestors loved life! We have Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Double Ninth Festival. In western countries, there are Christmas, April Fool's Day, Mother's Day and Father's Day. We have Sundays, and so do foreigners. These festivals are very good, and they are unique inventions and creations of advanced animals such as humans. To paraphrase a great man, express our feelings in this way and unite the whole nation.

How the ancestors enjoyed life! After a busy year, what do you want? Isn't it just for fun? People are pursuing happiness and happiness all their lives; Feel happy, feel happy. In the era of material scarcity, 2008 is a very extravagant thing. But even so, poor Yang Bailao still needs to buy two Jin of white flour and two feet of red rope to nourish his body and mood. Nowadays, for many people in China, it is one thing to celebrate the New Year every day, but what about the spirit? The dual enjoyment in the material and spiritual sense is the real Chinese New Year.

In this life, in fact, only two ends are more real. When I was a child, I could even lie so much that "my mother said she was not at home" could surpass the humorous sketches all over the world. Middle-aged and elderly people have stable families and stable careers. There seems to be no need to stop being yourself. Why not give yourself a spiritual feast in the coming spring, during the seven-day prime time of the Spring Festival? Let the mood take a vacation, and let us really enjoy the pleasure of being the essence of heaven and earth and the spirit of all things.

Spring Festival is flower of life. The plan for a year lies in spring, and the plan for life lies in spring. During the Spring Festival, we enjoy delicious food, visit relatives and friends, cheer up, pack our bags and then set off. We will be full of energy, high spirits and high morale for a whole year. This year's life is destined to be good and the harvest is in sight. Spring Festival is the node of life and the gas station of life. A person's life begins in the womb; One year, starting from the Spring Festival.

To taste the Spring Festival is to taste the most delicious dish in life.

How to write Spring Festival?

First of all, understand the duality of the origin of the Spring Festival-praying for heaven and longing for beauty.

The word "Spring Festival" originated from Sun Yat-sen's Revolution of 1911. After the success of the Revolution of 1911, the government of the Republic of China advocated the integration of culture with the world and accepted the Gregorian calendar year-Gregorian calendar 1 month 1 day, which was called New Year's Day. However, before that, the years of the China lunar calendar were called "January 1st" and New Year's Day. In view of this, the national government called the original lunar year "Spring Festival".

So, what does 2008 mean in the history of China? Gu Shu also. As early as the Xia Dynasty, our Chinese ancestors had a clear understanding of the laws of the four seasons and invented the Xia calendar. Sunrise and sunset 360, the cycle starts from the beginning. The vegetation withers and glows at four o'clock, twelve times a year. This is a very clear concept of the year: the grain is ripe, the old year ends and the new year begins. At such a moment, people should of course engage in a national activity of great significance to the future. In today's words, this kind of activity is "Chinese New Year". In the Zhou Dynasty, the Chinese New Year ceremony was fixed. Since then, the forms and contents of Chinese New Year have been constantly enriched, developed and changed until now.

When talking about people's class nature, Marx said that people pursue beauty, and beauty is the objectification of people's class nature. Just like this, our ancestors of the Chinese nation objectified their desire for a better year, hoping that the new year will be better and happier when everything recovers. This may be the fundamental reason why we want to celebrate the New Year.

However, in the vast ancient times, human beings were very small in front of nature, and human psychology (that is, social psychology) was full of panic about nature, heaven and earth, and mysterious forces. Therefore, respecting heaven and earth, even grass and wood, is regarded as the top priority of the whole people in the future. So much for our ancestors. As a result, the Chinese New Year came into being on the stage of fearing the gods, which made the Chinese New Year full of superstitions from head to toe. For example, according to the legend of Nian beast, there is a monster in the sea and a village by the sea. Before that day, monsters went ashore to do evil and eat people, so they used to stick red paper and set off firecrackers. Another example is the legend of Spring Festival couplets. In ancient times, there were two brothers. God sent Lei Yu to live in Dushuo Mountain. There is a peach tree on the mountain, and the shade is like a cover. Every morning, they will review the ghosts under the tree. If an evil spirit harms the world, tie it up and feed it to the tiger. Later, people used two pieces of red wooden boards to draw pictures of God Tea and Lei Yu, and hung them on both sides of the door to ward off evil spirits. Door couplets are also developed from peach symbols. At first, people painted portraits of shentu and Lei Yu on mahogany boards and hung them on two doors. Later, it evolved into Spring Festival couplets, "always changing new peaches for old ones".

It can be seen that our Chinese nation's desire for beauty is externalized to our Spring Festival, which was expressed in the form of praying for the gods in ancient times.

Second, the significance of celebrating the Spring Festival today.

Nowadays, the civilization and progress of our Chinese nation have robbed us of the superstitious color of the Spring Festival, and this beautiful flower of the Spring Festival has opened in front of us unabashedly. We are immersed in the celebration and joy of the Spring Festival, and our life and destiny are as lofty as people expect.

First of all, the Spring Festival is family-centered, with family harmony and family reunion. Our Spring Festival is family-centered, and most Spring Festival programs (customs) are promoting the integration of family ties, paying tribute to the elderly-respecting the elderly and wishing them a long life. Give lucky money-I hope that children will grow up healthily and the incense will continue; Eat jiaozi-happy life, good luck, and a lot of gold ingots (money).

Secondly, the Spring Festival is not closed and selfish, but also a stage for socializing and deepening friendship. Greetings from friends, New Year's messages and banquets from colleagues and classmates, and the colorful Chinese national carnival on the fifteenth day of the first month.

Best wishes again. Good planning for the future, good memories of the past. In longing and memory, our life is full of spirit.

Third, as narrative writing.

Ideal writing is a special narrative prose culture. The narrative prose I understand is relative to the normative narrative. Normative narration takes me as the center, focusing on what I have done and experienced, while prose narration takes narrative, description and lyric as the basic means, but does not directly focus on what I have done or experienced, describing and describing the "bigger me"-our business.

The comprehension composition of the Spring Festival is to describe and describe the "big self" of our Chinese nation, not the situation of my family during the Spring Festival.

1 must be distinguished from argumentative writing. If you mess me up, write an argumentative essay, or write it in a nondescript way. Because it is easier to write an argumentative essay and explain some arguments about the Spring Festival, it will be more difficult to describe it.

2. The main content should be described and understood at the custom point of the Spring Festival, and the writing method of "block" should be adopted. Obviously, when we describe the Spring Festival, we want to describe these customs. However, if we list these customs and legends in a dry way, we will lose the color of writing about the Spring Festival and write an explanatory article. Therefore, you should describe and portray the customs that you think are effective, and make deep feelings and lyricism on this basis. So the article was written. You can also use a customization to form an entire article.

3, we should pay attention to the problem of prose culture, headless and tailless, scattered but not scattered. Attach importance to language art and strive to be vivid, vivid and profound.

4, the beginning and the end. You can start with imaginary parallelism, poetic language and wonderful close-ups, and get to the point. The ending is of course some form of lyric.

The title of the article. We regard this article as a topic composition proposition, and we can't use "feeling the Spring Festival" as a topic. The topic is self-made. Moreover, when we draw up our own topics, we should consider reflecting the mood of the Spring Festival. We can't write Happy Spring Festival, Happy Spring Festival, the day of the Spring Festival, my family's Spring Festival, lucky money and Spring Festival holidays, because such topics are not sensitive. Provide a few reference topics: open a beautiful picture of the Spring Festival, remember the Spring Festival, its taste, its fragrance, its beauty, its moist and crisp heart, its China Red and so on.

Five, today's Spring Festival poems.

(A) today's Spring Festival terminology

If a star represents happiness, I will send you a galaxy;

If a tree represents a yearning, I will send you a forest.

Spring Festival custom connection:

Traditional Festival in China-Spring Festival

The first day of the first lunar month is the New Year in China. Among the traditional festivals in China, this is the most important and lively one. Because the Lunar New Year is celebrated in late winter and early spring, people also call this festival "Spring Festival".

China people have many traditional customs to celebrate the Spring Festival. People have been preparing for the Spring Festival since the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. During this period, every household should clean up, buy new year's goods, stick grilles, hang New Year pictures, write Spring Festival couplets, steam rice cakes, prepare all kinds of food, and prepare to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

The eve of the Spring Festival is called "New Year's Eve". New Year's Eve is a time for family reunion. The family sat around, ate a big dinner, and talked and laughed until dawn. It's called shou sui. When the bell rings at 0: 00 on New Year's Eve, people will eat jiaozi. In ancient times, it was called "Zishi", and the Zishi on New Year's Eve was the time when the old and new years alternated. People eat jiaozi at this time, which means "making friends when they are young". This is also the origin of the name "jiaozi".

New Year's Eve is the first day of New Year's Day. From the first day of junior high school, people will visit relatives and friends and pay New Year greetings to each other. Paying New Year greetings is an important custom in the Spring Festival. During the New Year, everyone should say some auspicious words to wish happiness and health.

Spring Festival custom-setting off firecrackers

At midnight, the New Year bell rang and firecrackers shook the whole sky of China. In this "three yuan" moment of "year yuan, month yuan, time yuan", some places still set up "Wang Huo" in the courtyard to show that the spirit is soaring and prosperous. Around the blazing fire, the children set off firecrackers and danced happily. At this time, the bright lights in the house, the sparks in front of the court and the deafening noise outside the house pushed the lively atmosphere of New Year's Eve to a climax.

Firecrackers are a sign of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, and also an expression of festive atmosphere. Business people. Setting off firecrackers has another meaning: they set off firecrackers on New Year's Eve to make a fortune in the new year. But according to the old custom, respecting the god of wealth should be the first, and setting off firecrackers should be the last. Legend has it that if you want to get rich, firecrackers will ring at the end. In the past, since the opening of the financial door at midnight during the Spring Festival, people have sent the God of Wealth. The God of Wealth shouted outside the door with a piece of paper in his hand: "The God of Wealth is coming!" " At this time, in order to meet the God of Wealth, the owner of the house gave a reward to the bearer and sent it to the mouth of the God of Wealth. Of course, it is inevitable to say something auspicious. For example, "the treasure is rolling"! On the left is a pair of golden lions, and on the right is a pair of golden phoenix! And so on. There is also a man dressed as a god of wealth, wearing a red robe, a gauze hat, a fake beard on his mouth and a yellow cloth bag to collect money, followed by several drummers, who distributed the god of wealth from door to door in order to ask for a reward. Every time people go to the door, they sing, "The left compartment is full of gold and silver, and the right compartment is full of treasure." A lot of good luck words went on until the owner happily took over the red paper statue of the god of wealth and gave them some money. After thanking them, they knocked on the door for a while and went to another house with the sound of gongs and drums.

After setting off firecrackers and returning home, the first thing everyone does is to worship heaven and earth, god and ancestors. In ancient times, this custom was very popular. Due to different local customs and habits, the forms of ancestor worship are also different. Some go to the wild to sweep graves, and some go to the ancestral temple to worship their ancestors. Most of them put their ancestral tablets in the main hall in turn at home to show their worship, and then worshippers worship them in order of age. After paying homage to their ancestors, southerners look up this year's auspicious direction in the almanac, lighting lanterns and torches, holding pots and holding wine, burning incense and setting off firecrackers, and opening doors to meet the western gods, which is called "going out to the Arabian Nights" or "going out", which is called "going out to seek happiness" in Zhejiang and "going out to seek happiness" in Shanghai. This custom is to get good luck and pray to God for a smooth year. On New Year's Eve, you stay up all night. That night, housewives were busy hanging lanterns, making colorful decorations, putting up Spring Festival couplets, cutting window grilles and putting up New Year pictures, decorating their homes in red, green and green, adding a rich atmosphere to the festival. Perhaps what children expect most is lucky money. Lucky money is given to the younger generation by the elders. In some families, everyone is not allowed to leave the table after the New Year's Eve. After everyone has finished eating, the elders give it to the younger generation to encourage their children and grandchildren to learn and improve in the new year. In some families, parents put their children under pillows after they fall asleep at night, and in more families, children gather in the main hall, shouting Happy New Year to grandparents and parents, and queuing up to bow down; Then reach for the red envelope. They even took back their grandparents' bedrooms and ran to the bed together, shouting "lucky money, lucky money!" " "The old man is not busy enough, so he is stingy. From bargaining to siege, he finally dug up the red envelope of his ancestors. Everyone took them and roared away. The old man was overjoyed to see this scene and thought it was a good sign for all the best in the new year.

People's traditional ideas always like to get more good luck during the Spring Festival, and hope everything goes well. There are many old customs among them. If there is a custom of prohibiting the use of brooms everywhere, it is considered that using brooms in the New Year will sweep away luck and wealth, and it is difficult to make good luck in the new year. If you must sweep the floor, you must sweep it from the outside to the inside. In order to make this custom popular, the first day of the first month is also designated as "broom birthday". Don't scold children during the Chinese New Year, and you must pay special attention to what you say. If a child accidentally breaks his rice bowl, people will never scold him, but say that he is "safe all the year round", because the homonym of "broken" and "old" has washed away an ominous atmosphere. Chinese New Year is coming, and adults are most afraid of children saying something unlucky. In some places, in addition to looking horizontally and vertically, you will wipe your mouth with a piece of red cloth or toilet paper, which means that even if you say something unlucky, it is equivalent to farting. Others put oranges and lychees on pillows and call them "year-old fruits". Oranges and lychees are homophonic, representing good luck in the coming year. In some areas, there is also the custom of stealing the statue of the god of wealth, and hiding it in the crotch after stealing, in order to take the meaning of the idiom "the god of wealth is put in the warehouse (pants)" Among these whimsical tastes and customs, there are many people who have worked hard in the past dynasties to flatter the god of fate.

When the door is opened in the morning of the Spring Festival, firecrackers are set off first, which is called "opening the door to set off firecrackers". After the firecrackers, the ground is broken red, which is the so-called "full house". At this time, the streets are full of anger and joy.

The Origin of the Spring Festival

In the traditional sense, the Spring Festival refers to the La Worship sacrificial ceremony from the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month or the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to the 15th day of the first lunar month, with New Year's Eve and the first day of the first lunar month as the climax. During the Spring Festival, a traditional festival, the Han nationality and most ethnic minorities in China will hold various celebrations. Most of these activities are mainly about offering sacrifices to gods and buddhas, paying homage to ancestors, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, and praying for the new.

The first thing to say is: "longevity" and "year beast" Everyone knows that New Year's Eve is used to staying up at night and staying up late to welcome the new year. In fact, this is what old people used to say, also called "keeping the old age". Why is there such a custom

According to legend, in ancient times, there was a fierce monster scattered in the deep sea. People call them nian. Its appearance is ferocious, its nature is ferocious, and it specializes in eating birds, animals and insects. It changes its taste every day, from kowtowing insects to living people, which makes people talk about "Nian". Later, people gradually mastered the activity law of "Nian", that is, they went to a crowded place to taste fresh food every 365 days. According to legend, Nian Beasts are large and small, more than ten feet long, with eyes like two bells, and come and go like the wind, making the sound of "year after year", hence the name. After a long time, people gradually found that Nian beast was afraid of three things, namely, red, fire and noise. People figured out the day when Nian beast ran wild. People took this terrible night as a gateway and called it "Nian Guan", and came up with a whole set of methods to close New Year's Eve: every time the beast came on New Year's Eve, people would get together and put up red paper and hang red.
