The Chinese New Year has a great history. In our past, people lived in an agricultural society and worked all year long. They only took a break after the harvest and before the planting of seeds. This happens to coincide with the beginning of the lunar New Year.
The Chinese New Year is very similar to the Western one, rich in traditions, folklores and rituals. It has been said that it is a combination of the Western Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year. This is hardly an exaggeration!
The origin of the Chinese New Year itself is centuries old - in fact, too old to actually be traced. It is popularly recognized as the Spring Festival and celebrations last 15 days.
Preparations tend to begin a month before the date of the Chinese New Year (similar to a Western Christmas)。 During this time people start buying presents, decoration materials, food and clothing. A huge clean-up gets underway days before the New Year, when Chinese
houses are cleaned from top to bottom. This ritual is supposed to sweep away all traces of bad luck. Doors and windowpanes are often given a new coat of paint, usually red, then decorated with paper cuts and couplets with themes such as happiness, wealth and longevity printed on them.

I got up very early today - today is the first day of the year. The first thing a child can do is to put on his new clothes and go to the neighbor's house for a red envelope. But before you ask for a red envelope, be sure to congratulate yourself on your wealth and good health. My friends and I went to ask for a red envelope, and ran for a long morning, but it was tiring, but the money we paid for it was quite good.
During the Spring Festival, firecrackers should be set off to show happiness. The sound of firecrackers was heard in the early morning, and the whole village was busy. We are all familiar with the smell of firecrackers, which can smell like Chinese New Year. The grown-u
ps were gathering in the air to talk about their children, to talk about work, to get up, to play mah-jongg, to play CARDS, to say that the first day of the year was not a bet. In the afternoon, I went to buy a fireworks display with my friends. Even if our new clothes get dirty, we don't care, just have fun.
The evening scenery is very different from the day: although it is as lively as the day, it is mainly fireworks. "Feng!" "Feng!" Beautiful fireworks burst into the sky, and many people came to watch the fireworks, and few people slept late at night. I played hide and seek with my friends, and I was very happy with the moon and fireworks.
At 10 o 'clock in the evening, my family and I went upstairs to set off fireworks and eat zongzi and rice cakes. According to our custom, we should eat rice cakes and zongzi during the Spring Festival. I like rice dumplings best. Because there's my favorite filling -- it's a mixture of peanuts, beans, meat, dried mushrooms and some spring Onions. We eat zongzi and watch the fireworks, which is really pleasing to the eye!
I'm so happy for the Spring Festival! You can ask for red envelopes, firecrackers, eating
zongzi and rice cakes. I wish I could go back in time!
