今天是元宵节,春节的庆祝进入了最后阶段。人们今晚赏月,看灯,再见,等待下一个春节。
事实上,从历史上看,元宵节是我国真正意义上的情人节。
the lantern festival has been part of Chinese new year celebrations since the Han dynasty(206 BC-221 ad)。
从汉朝(公元前206年-公元221年)开始,元宵节成为春节庆祝活动的一部分。
it is said that the holiday evolved from an ancient Chinese belief that celestial spirits could be seen flying about in the light of the first full moo N on
元宵节是从古代中国的一个传说进化而来的,有传闻说,到了农历第一个月圆之夜,就能看到天上飞来飞去的神。为了更容易找到众神,人们用火炬照明,这些火炬逐渐被形状、大小、颜色不同的灯笼所取代。
despite the fact that most Chinese dynasties had curfews during the night,All the people Were allowed to stay out on the days around the lantern feetern
中国古代的大部分王朝在晚上实行宵禁,但在元宵节前后允许人们在外面生活。中国古代女性一生的大部分时间都住在闺房里,元宵节晚上也获准出去看灯。
Therefore,it was almost the only time for young men and women to meet with each other and fall in love,according to experts。
因此,元宵节是年轻男女相遇相爱的唯一机会。

元宵节是中国情人节的另一个证明,记载在中国的文学作品中。唐宋时期数以千计的古诗中,很多描写了对伴侣的深厚感情。
例如,新饥饿的这个《青玉案元夕》。
青玉安原石
(宋)新起亚
东风夜放花木,进一步吹来,星星如雨。
宝马雕车充满香气,凤潇发出声音,水壶的光线旋转,一夜鱼龙舞跳一夜。
蛾子的杨柳金色缕,笑声幽香。
众人找他,找千百度,蓦然回首,那个人灯火阑珊。(莎士比亚)。
the lantern festival night-to the tune of green jade table
非辛弃疾徐元冲、徐明冲翻译
one night ' s east wind adorns a thousand trees with flowers
And blows down stars in showers。
fine steeds and carved cabs spread fragrance en route;
Music vibrates from the flute
The moon sheds its full light
while fish and dragon lanterns dance all night。
In gold-thread dress、with moth or willow ornaments、
Giggling,she melts in
to the throng with trails of scentsBut in the crowd once and again
I look for her in vain.
When all at once I turn my head,
I find her there where lantern light is dimly shed.
元宵节的其他习俗
猜灯谜
Part of the lantern festival tradition involves a game to guess riddles attached to the lanterns. In the old days the riddles were literary allusions to the Chinese classics and so were mainly the preserve of the educated classes.
元宵节传统习俗中有猜灯谜的游戏。在过去,这些谜语大多与中国文学典故有关,所以猜灯谜以前多为知识份子的“领地”。
到了现代,猜灯谜自然是每个人都能参与的节日游戏。我们在这里列几个中文和英文灯谜,看看你能猜出多少。(答案见文末)

吃元宵(汤圆)
Like most Chinese festivals, the Lantern Festival has its own special food, called "yuanxiao" or "tangyuan". These are round, glutinous rice dumplings with sweet or saly fillings. The dumplings are said to symbolize both the first full moon and family unity and completeness.
与大多数中国节日一样,元宵节同样有自己的特色小吃,称为“元宵”或“汤圆”。元宵外形圆圆的,外皮由糯米制成,内馅或甜或咸。人们都说汤圆有两个象征意义,一为农历的第一个满月,二为家庭团聚圆满。
舞龙舞狮
Stilt-walking, drumming and dragon and lion dancing are all traditional forms of festival entertainment. In Asia, it is not uncommon to see processions of hundred-foot long dragons, lit with flashing eyes and luminous bodies, accompanied by pounding drums, cymbals and brass instruments.
踩高跷,敲鼓和舞龙舞狮都是一些传统节日的娱乐活动。在亚洲,人们经常能看到这样的场景:数百英尺的长龙,闪闪发光的眼睛和亮晶晶的身躯,周围还有敲锣打鼓、吹奏铜管乐器的队伍。
Today, the connotation of love in the festival has been almost lost, as young couples could date whenever they want and women are no longer confined indoors. But the lantern shows remain the focus of the festival.
如今,元宵节中跟爱情有关的含义已经消失殆尽,女性不再深居简出,年轻的情侣们随时可以约会。不过,灯展依旧是元宵节的重头戏。
祝大家元宵节快乐!
