关于端午节的英语作文四篇


【篇一】关于端午节的英语作文
Duanwu 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 has
since been celebrated, in various ways, in other parts
of East Asia as well. In the West, it’s commonly known
as Dragon Boat Festival.
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
fish so they would not eat Qu’s body. They also sat
on long, narrow paddle boats called dragon boats, and
tried to scare the fish away by the thundering sound
of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking carved
dragon head on the boat’s prow(船头).
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(名声名望).
Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed
glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings called the food
originally intended to feed the fish and race dragon
boats in memory of Qu’s dramatic death.
