中秋節(jié)英語日記帶翻譯
The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, usually in October in Gregorian calendar.
每年農(nóng)歷八月十五日，是傳統(tǒng)的中秋佳節(jié)。這時(shí)是一年秋季的中期，所以被稱為中秋。
The festival has a long history. In ancient China, emperors followed the rite of offering sacrifices to the sun in spring and to the moon in autumn. Historical books of the Zhou Dynasty had had the word "Mid-Autumn". Later aristocrats and literary figures helped expand the ceremony to common people. They enjoyed the full, bright moon on that day, worshipped it and expressed their thoughts and feelings under it. By the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the Mid-Autumn Festival had been fixed, which became even grander in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). In the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, it grew to be a major festival of China.
中秋節(jié)有悠久的歷史，和其它傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日一樣，也是慢慢發(fā)展形成的，古代帝王有春天祭日，秋天祭月的禮制，早在《周禮》一書中，已有“中秋”一詞的記載。后來貴族和文人學(xué)士也仿效起來，在中秋時(shí)節(jié)，對著天上又亮又圓一輪皓月，觀賞祭拜，寄托情懷，這種習(xí)俗就這樣傳到民間，形成一個(gè)傳統(tǒng)的活動(dòng)，一直到了唐代，這種祭月的風(fēng)俗更為人們重視，中秋節(jié)才成為固定的節(jié)日，《唐書·太宗記》記載有“八月十五中秋節(jié)”，這個(gè)節(jié)日盛行于宋朝，至明清時(shí)，已與元旦齊名，成為我國的主要節(jié)日之一。
People in different places follow various customs, but all show their love and longing for a better life. Today people will enjoy the full moon and eat moon cakes on that day.
中秋節(jié)的習(xí)俗很多，形式也各不相同，但都寄托著人們對生活無限的熱愛和對美好生活的向往。如今，人們一般會(huì)在那一天賞月吃月餅。
The moon looks extremely round, big and bright on the 15th day of each lunar month. People selected the August 15 to celebrate because it is a season when crops and fruits are all ripe and weather pleasant. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, all family members or friends meet outside, putting food on tables and looking up at the sky while talking about life. How splendid a moment it is!
每到農(nóng)歷八月十五那天，月亮看上去又大又圓又亮。人們選擇八月十五來慶祝就是因?yàn)檫@個(gè)季節(jié)刀子和水果全部都成熟，并且天氣舒適。在中秋節(jié)折騰，所有家庭成員或者朋友都會(huì)在外面設(shè)席，圍坐著擺滿食物的圓桌，賞月暢談。多么美好的一刻��！
