每年的农历五月初五，是端午节。端午节是中华民族最隆重的传统节日之一。我非常喜欢端午节，因为可以吃到美味的粽子。
Dragon Boat Festival is the fifth day of may in the lunar calendar. Dragon Boat Festival is one of the most solemn traditional festivals of the Chinese nation. I like Dragon Boat Festival very much because I can eat delicious zongzi.
在两千多年以前，有一位叫屈原的爱国诗人。他关心国家兴亡，了解百姓们的疾苦，可是国君不听他的意见。直到有一天，国家山河破灭，百姓流离失所。屈原心如刀割，写下绝笔之作《怀沙》后，在农历五月初五那天抱着石头投汩罗江自尽。人们悲痛欲绝，划着龙舟打捞他的尸体，还沿江撒粽子，希望喂饱鱼虾，不让它们夺食屈原的尸体。屈原用自己的生命谱写了一曲爱国主义乐章。千百年来，人们为了纪念他，把农历五月初五那天称为端午节，而吃粽子、赛龙舟便成了端午节的习俗，一直流传到了今天。
Two thousand years ago, there was a patriotic poet named Qu Yuan. He cared about the rise and fall of the country and understood the sufferings of the people, but the monarch did not listen to him. Until one day, the country was destroyed and the people were displaced. Qu Yuan was as heartbroken as a knife. After writing his masterpiece “Huaisha”, he committed suicide on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month holding a stone and throwing himself into the Guluo river. People were so sad that they rowed dragon boats to salvage his body and sprinkled zongzi along the river, hoping to feed the fish and shrimps and not let them rob Qu Yuan＇s body. Qu Yuan composed a patriotic movement with his own life. For
thousands of years, in order to commemorate him, people called Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, and eating zongzi and racing dragon boat became the custom of Dragon Boat Festival, which has been handed down to today.www.zuowenla.cn
今年的端午节，我们一家都忙着包粽子。我先把长长的粽叶卷成圆锥形，然后，妈妈把泡好的糯米、绿豆放进圆锥形粽叶里，加点点水，使糯米更加坚固，不会漏出来，再把口封紧。最后，爸爸用草绳把它捆了个结结实实。一个漂亮的、墨绿色的三角粽诞生了!我很开心，和爸爸妈妈齐心协力，又包了许多个三角粽。蒸好的粽子香气扑鼻，可好吃了!
This year＇s Dragon Boat Festival, our family are busy making zongzi. First, I rolled the long leaves into a cone. Then, my mother put the soaked glutinous rice and mung beans into the cone-shaped leaves, and added some water to make the glutinous rice stronger without leakage, and then sealed the mouth tightly. Finally, Dad tied it up with straw rope. A beautiful, dark green triangle zongzi was born! I am very happy, and my parents work together, and wrapped a lot of triangle zongzi. Steamed dumplings smell good, but delicious!
端午节真快乐呀!我期盼着明年端午节的到来。
How happy the Dragon Boat Festival is! I＇m looking forward to the coming of next year＇s Dragon Boat Festival.
