Our country has an ancient patriotic poet named Qu Yuan,he was exiled by the calumny,the inability to save the peril of the country,excessive anger,so Jiang himself voted to Health martyred.It is for him not to eat the bodies of fish and shrimp,one after another to the various pancake into the river,the water used to feed animals,and some ship off the water at the water beast.This has become now the Dragon Boat Festival,eating dumplings,fried cake,the origin of the dragon-boat race.
Having said that,I think of my family have been the scene of the Dragon Boat Festival.Grandmother pinch a different type of pancake,has florets,small,small starfish,is really different form.hurry to go shopping Kok,calmly took my father to buy tzu.A long row of teams,like a long queue,we managed to buy a tzu.We can see that every household have attached great importance to this holiday,people in this way to express their thoughts and reverence Yuan.
我国古代有一位爱国诗人叫屈原,他遭谗言被放逐后,无力拯救危亡的国家,悲愤过度,于是投江自尽,以生殉国.人们为了不使鱼虾吃掉他的尸体,纷纷将捏成的各种各样的饼子投入江中,用来喂饱水中的动物,有的划着船在水上敲锣打鼓驱赶水兽.这便成为现在端午节,吃粽子、炸糕点、赛龙舟的由来.
说到这里,我又想起了我家过端午节的情景.奶奶捏了种类不同的饼子,有小花,小人,小海星,真是形态各异.妈妈急着去买菜角,爸爸不慌不忙地拉着我去买粽子.排着长长的队,好似一条长龙,我们好不容易才买到了粽子.可以看出,家家户户都很重视这个节日,人们用这种方式来表达对屈原的思念和崇敬.
Dragon Boat Festival,often known as Tuen Ng Festival or Duan Wu Festival,is a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar.It is also known as the Double Fifth.[citation needed] It has since been celebrated,in various ways,in other parts of East Asia as well,most notably Korea.
The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear,but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan of the Warring States Period.He committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the Chu government.The local people,knowing him to be a good man,decided to throw food into the river to feed the fishes to prevent them from eating Qu's body.They also sat on dragon boats,and tried to scare the fishes away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking dragon-head in the front of the boat.
In the early years of the Chinese Republic,Duan Wu was also celebrated as "Poets' Day",due to Qu Yuan's status as China's first poet of personal renown.
Today,people eat zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fishes) and race dragon boats in memory of Qu's dramatic death.
