端午节的由来和历史 英语
The Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar holiday, occurring on the fifth day of
the fifth lunar month
The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival is a significant holiday celebrated in
China, and the one with the longest history. The Dragon Boat Festival is
celebrated by boat races in the shape of dragons. Competing teams row their
boats forward to a drumbeat racing to reach the finish end first.
The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs to
attempts to rescue the patriotic poet Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan drowned on the fifth
day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese citizens now throw bamboo
leaves filled with cooked rice into the water. Therefore the fish could eat the
rice rather than the hero poet. This later on turned into the custom of eating
tzungtzu and rice dumplings. The celebration's is a time for protection from evil
and disease for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as
hanging healthy herbs on the front door, drinking nutritious concoctions, and
displaying portraits of evil's nemesis, Chung Kuei. If one manages to stand an
egg on it's end at exactly 12：00 noon, the following year will be a lucky one.
Notesignificant：重要的 drumbeat：鼓声，打鼓 patriotic：爱国的
concoction：调和物 nemesis：报应风俗习惯
Dragon Boat race Traditions At the center of this festival are the dragon
boat races. Competing teams drive their colorful dragon boats forward to the
rhythm of beating drums. These exciting races were inspired by the villager's
valiant attempts to rescue Chu Yuan from the Mi Lo river. This tradition has
remained unbroken for centuries.
Tzung Tzu A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat festival is tzung tzu.
This tasty dish consists of rice dumplings with meat, peanut, egg yolk, or other
fillings wrapped in bamboo leaves. The tradition of tzung tzu is meant to
remind us of the village fishermen scattering rice across the water of the Mi
Low river in order to appease the river dragons so that they would not devour
Chu Yuan.
Ay Taso The time of year of the Dragon Boat Festival, the fifth lunar moon,
has more significance than just the story of Chu Yuan. Many Chinese consider
this time of year an especially dangerous time when extra efforts must be
made to protect their family from illness. Families will hang various herbs,
called Ay Tsao, on their door for protection. The drinking of realgar wine is
thought to remove poisons from the body. Hsiang Bao are also worn. These
sachets contain various fragrant medicinal herbs thought to protect the wearer
from illness.
