Spring Festival, on the last day of every year, is to ring out the old year and ring in the new. At the same time, it is also the festival we are most looking forward to because, on that day, parents who are far away from work will come back, the elders at home will make the meals, and different from usual, the meals on that day are the most abundant. Then the children dressed in new clothes, excited at home waiting for their parents to come home, take lucky money.
I live with my parents, so whenever the Spring Festival, the family is together, so I have not experienced the feeling of waiting for my parents to be back happily. But I still look forward to the New Year, because I can get lucky money at this time of the year. Every year, when the New Year, I wear new clothes, smiling at my father and spreading out my hands, "Gong xi fa cai, hong bao na lai." Then my dad would generously toss me a red envelope and say, "Take it to buy food." After getting the red envelope, I would happily go to my sister, "Sister, accompany me to buy food and fireworks." But as age gets older, and now the flavor of the New Year is becoming less and less, resulting in the current year being more and more cold, and because of environmental reasons, do not let off fireworks, but I still look forward to the New Year. The first is because of the holiday, the second is because of the lucky money, and the last is the most important, is to have a happy family dinner together.
Then why give lucky money? In fact, in the past, New Year's money was not called New Year's money, but called pressure money, which means to help children hold down a monster called trouble, and bless the child next year in peace and good health. Gradually, this has become the tradition of the Spring Festival, generally on the day of the Spring Festival, the elders give red envelopes to the younger generation, representing their care and wishes for the younger generation. This is also the transmission of love.
Not only that, because the speed of development of The Times is too fast, many middle-aged people have to work hard to make ends meet. But the Spring Festival is the traditional festival of the Chinese nation, we should do a better job of promoting it and attracting everyone's attention.

My Life of Calligraphy
I began to practice soft pen calligraphy in primary school. When I was young, I only knew how to practice day after day. Now, with the growth of age, I have a new understanding and understanding. To have a deeper understanding of calligraphy, I decided to visit a master when I was in middle school. My uncle is a famous calligraphy master. I began a long and challenging learning journey under his guidance. I began to practice the basic strokes again and gradually understood the essence of calligraphy. As time flies, I have made great progress in my calligraphy skills. I began to try to create my works and integrate my understanding into them.
One day during the summer vacation, the weather was hot and the cicadas outside the window made me a little irritable. At that time, I was writing the word "Yong". According to the copybook, I always missed a little flavor. Tired and angry, I threw the pen away and shouted, "I don't practice anymore," like a dejected ball sitting on the chair. At this time, my uncle walked slowly to me with his hands behind his back. He patted me on the head and said, "My child, you are still too young to be impatient." While picked up a pen to give me a demonstration, I kept quiet, quietly watched him, saw him with a pen, one hand on his arm, slowly down the pen, at the moment, as if all is quiet, uncle concentrated on writing, I thought, what is the meaning of such a painstaking thing. Just as I wondered, Uncle began to say, this writing, ah, like the cultivation of life, some people diligent don't give up, some people give up halfway. Say while glancing at me, continued to say, this word is also like the person, which carries the strokes, as life has ups and downs and twists and turns, we will encounter all kinds of difficulties, but need to put the mentality, with rational ideas to deal with. I gradually realized that he said very reasonable, have to recognize it. At that time I was facing the pressure of entering the school, and practicing calligraphy also let me calm down to think about the future, there is an old Chinese saying "Everything must be quiet".
After that, I more actively participated in calligraphy-related activities, through lectures, exhibitions and writing, to introduce China's hidden culture to more people, and let more people understand and appreciate the charm of calligraphy.
Calligraphy is an ancient art form, which contains profound Chinese culture. As an ancient art form in China, calligraphy not only incisively and vividly expresses the connotation and flavor of words, but also constantly gives insights to learners in the process of practice, which is the so-called calligraphy life. Although calligraphy seems simple, the philosophy and rhythm it contains make me more fascinated. At the same time, I also hope to engage in cross-cultural communication work in the future, tell Chinese stories in English and spread Chinese culture.

The boy thought that going to school was a punishment. In the three paragraph of Half a Day ,it is written that why school? What have I done? He thought this because he thought only naughty children were sent to school. His father comment on schooling or going to school was supportive. He father commented the school is a place where can make useful men out of boys.I agree his opinion,we can gain love,friendship and knowledge at school.As the New Year approaches, toasting relatives at the dinner table is one of the indispensable parts of the year, and it is also the most embarrassing part for me，Whenever having dinner with various relatives, it is impossible to avoid being called out to drink to them and say words of blessing, especially on major holidays.But, as the world becames more and more globalized, it's very easy to eat persimmons.But mom and dad still brought persimmons home from grandma's house.
Every time my mother leaves my hometown, I will run all the way behind, hoping that my mother will not leave.The behaviour of sending the lamp expressed our gratitude and memory for our ancestors.This reminded me of the point from the movie Coco,“The real death is that no one in the world remembers you.The end of life is not death, but forgetting.”I considered that is why we lighted candles for our ancestors on the evening of the Lantern Festival.Furthermore, If we had not remembered our ancestors and birthplace,we would not have possessed roots. Ancestors worship is also an act to make ourselves feel more belonging to our hometown.

I think each of us is looking forward to the Spring Festival. It is a grand festival with many customs and traditions. Next, I want to tell you the story of myself and the Spring Festival.
For me as a child, although this holiday was very interesting and exciting, it was a bit agonizing. Why is this? Because on the first day of the Lunar New Year, our whole family must wake up very early. For me, who loves to lie in bed, this is a huge torture. I remember one time when my whole family got up, I was still lying in bed. My dad knocked on the door multiple times and told me, "It's time to get up." I chose to cover my ears with a blanket and said loudly, "I don't want to get up!” My dad was very angry about my naughty behavior, so he rushed into my room and took my blanket away. I had to wake up reluctantly.
Later, I specifically asked my grandfather, "Why do we have to wake up early on the first day of the Lunar New Year?" He kindly touched my head and said, "Legend has it that the God of Wealth will come this morning. Therefore, on this day, we need to wake up early and set off" open the door cannon "to welcome the arrival of the God of Wealth. If we sleep in, according to our ancestors, then our financial luck will run away.". Moreover, there is a custom of paying New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year. People wake up early in the morning, put on beautiful clothes, dress up neatly, and then pay their respects to their elders in turn. Family and friends congratulate each other, and elders usually prepare red envelopes in advance. If others come to their homes to pay New Year's greetings before waking up, it is easy for them to make a fool of themselves
In addition, as the old saying goes, "On the 15th day of the Lunar New Year, the sun turns red on the second day of the Lunar New Year." The first day of the Lunar New Year is the first day of the year, and the new atmosphere of the New Year means that we wake up early, symbolizing a good start. After knowing these things, I no longer resist waking up early. And I also understand that every seemingly unchanging custom actually has deeper cultural connotations, which is a precious treasure I have gained in life.

When I was a child, I often saw my mother holding a piece of cloth to thread a needle, and after a while, there were many lifelike patterns on it. I was curious and often pestered my mother to see her embroidery and asked her what it was. My mother touched my head with a gentle smile and said, "This is Su embroidery."
"Su Embroidery? What's that?" "I asked. My mother said, "Do you know the four embroiders?" I shook my head.
"People call Su embroidery, Xiang embroidery, Shu embroidery and Yue embroidery the" four major embroidery in ancient China ". Su embroidery is the first of the four great embroideries. Flowers, grass, fish and wood are often used as the embroidery surface, because it looks beautiful when finished and the color is very elegant. Compared with other embroidery works, Su embroidery is the best of the best." "My mother said. "So I see." I nodded suddenly.
My mother picked me up and pointed to the pattern she had repaired for me and continued: "Since the Tang Dynasty in China, the dragon robes of the emperors were also completed with embroidery. The silk scarves and handkerchiefs of dignitaries are embroidered with exquisite embroidery works, most of which are dominated by Suzhou embroidery, supplemented by Hunan embroidery, which shows the popularity of ancient Suzhou embroidery. As the saying goes, "Above there is heaven, below there is Su resistance". In Suzhou, an ancient water town in the south of the Yangtze River, Su embroidery is the soul of the place. Su embroidery is unique. "" Oh, mom, you are so brilliant. You can embroider such beautiful patterns, can you teach me? I also want to try it." 'I said, looking up at my mother. She smiled and grabbed my hand. "Sure, but be careful."

Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Chinese festival, and when you are a student, no one can say no to a Dragon Boat Festival vacation with three days off.
I still remember the Dragon Boat Festival vacation in the second year of my junior high school, my parents took me to a relative's house as a guest that day, and I shouted Happy Dragon Boat Festival to my relatives just as I entered the door, but soon my mother corrected the mistake by telling me that I could only wish for good health and not happiness on the Dragon Boat Festival. I muttered in a small voice, "Aren't you glad you can have a vacation? You adults can be so weird" ，My mother smiled and rubbed my head and said, "You're too young, you'll understand when you grow up."At that time, I still didn't know much about it, and I just focused on playing with the children of my relatives.
It wasn't until high school that I realized that the reason why I can't wish happiness at the Dragon Boat Festival actually stems from the origin and historical background of the Dragon Boat Festival. The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan's death by throwing himself into the river and to drive away the dragon, which is why it is also known as the "Day of Evil". On this day, people will row dragon boats, hang wormwood and eat zongzi to drive away evil spirits and pray for peace and health.
According to historical records, on the Dragon Boat Festival, people usually give each other gifts such as zongzi and fragrant buns to express their blessings and care. However, due to the special significance of the Dragon Boat Festival, some people believe that they should remain solemn and dignified on this day and should not congratulate each other on their happiness.
Therefore, on the Dragon Boat Festival, if we want to express our blessings and care, we can choose other ways to do so, such as sending a warm text message, sending a greeting card with blessings written on it, and so on. Of course, if we have different understandings and opinions about this day with our friends and relatives, we can also choose to congratulate each other happily on the Dragon Boat Festival.

The Spring Festival is a traditional festival for us Chinese,which represents reunion and happiness.
In the morning,almost every family is busy with pasting the couplets,and my family is no exception.At noon,we make dumplings together.We children also act as assistants.
My family is a big family.Relatives come every Spring Festival.So the most exciting part is New Year's Eve dinner with our extended family.
I still remember when I was just a kid,I sat beside my grandpa,poured a cup of drink for him,and then picked up the cup,pretending to be an adult,said,"May joy and health be with my dear grandfather forever!Happy New Year!"He was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear.Then mom and dad proposed a toast to our elders,indescribably more lively.
After dinner,it was already half past eight.Dad said,"The fun is just beginning!It is CCTV Spring Festival Gala that is a must-see TV program for us Chinese.Let's enjoy it!"Then,we were eating sunflower seeds and watching TV with relish on the couch,indescribably happy.
For us Chinese,the Spring Festival is not just a festival,it is also an important emotion carrier to express our sincere wishes to our family.And it is an annual carnival of Chinese nation as well as the eternal spiritual pillar.
