New Yearthe Spring Festival12 The origin of the Lunar New Year Festival can be traced back thousands of years,involving a series of colorful legends and traditions.One of the most famous legends is Nian,an extremely cruel beast that the ancients believed would devour people on New Years Eve.To keep Nian away,red-paper couplets are pasted on doors,torches are lit,and firecrackers are set off throughout the night,because Nian is said to fear the color red,the light of fire,and loud noises.To the ancient times period,there is a kind of fierce monster called“year”.Its facial look is ferocious,the born nature is bloodthirsty,eating the birds and beasts,the fish and shellfish insect without feet particularly.141516The Spring Couplet”,also called“couplet”and“a pair of antithetical phrases”.On the eve of the Spring Festival,every household will paste on doors a spring couplet written on red paper to give a happy and prosperous atmosphere of the Festival.In the past,the Chinese usually wrote their own spring couplet with a brush or asked others to do for them,while nowadays,it is common for people to buy the printed spring couplet in the market.The custom of pasting New Year Prints originated from the tradition of placingDoor Gods on the external doors of houses.With the creation of board carvings,New Year paintings cover a wide range of subjects.The most famous ones are Door Gods,Surplus Year after Year Three Gods of Blessing,Salary and Longevity,An Abundant Harvest of Crops,Thriving Domestic Animals and Celebrating Spring.Four producing areas of New Year Print are Tohuwu of Suzhou,Yngliuqing of Tianjin,Wuqing of Hebei and Weifang of Shangdong.Now the tradition of pasting New Year paintings is still kept in rural China,while it is seldom followed in cities.18On New Years Eve,the whole family will sit together to make jiaozi and celebrate the Spring Festival.The shape of jiaozi is like gold ingot（金元宝）from ancient China.So people eat them and wish for money and treasure.You cannot have a complete Spring Festival without having jiaozi.19In the past few years,such an activity was completely or partially forbidden in big cities including Beijing due to fire and personal casualty caused by burning firecrackers.However,some Chinese thought that a Spring Festival without firecrackers was not lively enough and they burned firecrackers by stealth.So in recent years,the ban was canceled again.This shows that burning firecrackers is a very important activity during the Spring Festival.20On the first day of the Chinese lunar year,everybody puts on their best clothes and pays ceremonial calls on their relatives and friends,wishing them all the luck in the coming year.Juniors will greet seniors,wishing them health and longevity,while seniors will give juniors some gift money as a wish for their safety in the coming year.2122Chinese Spring Festival is becoming a culture of cards handed world,presented by the traditional happy and peaceful festive season,to show the world the charm of Chinese culture.Russian is learning make dumplingsOh!Its delicious!23Many Americans of Asian descent will carry on the rich traditions of their heritage,reminding us again that Americas strength comes from the future,and look forward to a year of hope and prosperity,optimism and comes from the richness of our cultures and the diversity of our people，He said：I wish all who celebrate the new year peace,prosperity and good health.)2425组员：赖其胜 1020640114 杨中干102064012026
