春节 Spring Festival

Spring Festival, also called the Chinese New Year is the biggest festival in our country. It comes between late January and the middle of February. Every Chinese enjoys this festival very much.

春节，也叫做中国新年，是我国最大的节日。这是一月下旬和二月中旬之间。每个中国人都喜欢这个节日非常。

During Spring Festival, we have seven days off. We usually get together with our families on New Year’s Eve. We have so many delicious dishes, such as chicken, duck, fish, meat and so on. But we consider fish as our major dish, since having fish represents a wish that we will be prosperous in the next year. However, people in the north often eat dumplings. It means to ring out the old and usher in the new year. After supper, we always watch TV programs, the Spring Festival Gala is the tradition. Or we also play fireworks outside. On the first New Year's Day, we always pay New Year’s visit to our relatives and friends, so as to exchange our best regards with each other.

春节期间，我们有七天的假期。我们通常会在新年前夕和我们的家人呆在一起。我们有很多美味的菜肴，如鸡，鸭，鱼，肉等。但我们把鱼当做我们的主要菜肴，因为鱼代表着明年会变得更繁荣的希望。然而，北方人通常吃饺子。这意味着辞旧迎新。晚饭后，我们总是看电视节目，看春节联欢晚会是传统。或者我们也会到外面放烟花。在新年的第一天，我们总是一如既往地给亲朋好友拜年，这样可以为彼此交换诚挚的问候。

By the way, I think the children are the happiest ones, because they can wear their new clothes and receive a lot of red envelopes.

顺便说一下，我认为小孩是最快乐的，因为他们可以穿新衣服，收到很多红包。

How I wish every day is Spring Festival.
我多么希望每一天都是春节。
