This year’s Spring Festival came very early, which seemed to catch people off guard. Just after New Year's Day, the final exam came; just after the final exam, it was actually the Chinese New Year. For our students, the atmosphere of this year's Spring Festival seems to be less intense than in previous years. Because the lingering power of the exam has not dissipated, and it seems that I am still worried about the gains and losses of the exam, I have almost forgotten the lively scene of the past New Year.
Let me think about this time last year. Since all the relatives would gather at my house, my parents got busy early. They both got on their bicycles and went to the market to buy new year's goods together. We have to consider that a group of children will get together and make a lot of noise, so we have to prepare something they like to eat and play with: we also have to think of melon seeds and peanuts that are essential for adults to talk and laugh... In this way, when they come back, the cart basket will be filled with large and small bags.
In an environment where everyone is busy, our desire for the Spring Festival is naturally particularly strong. It’s hard to look forward to New Year’s Eve. Since the afternoon, I have been looking forward to the knock on the door. The first words when opening the door must be "I wish you a happy new year and all the best". Gradually, everyone arrived, and the adults chatted around the round table. In normal days, everyone has no time to communicate with each other due to busy work. Now, they all take this opportunity to speak freely. Let’s talk about the work situation in the past year, and share the hardships and emotions in life. There is no gap between them, and they are extremely close to each other.
We are naughty and restless, and we are now at home like a duck in water. The adults have their own scope and have no time to care about us, so we just "do whatever we want". We hid in a room and sat on the big bed together. We exchanged interesting stories about school, and from time to time someone would be so amused that he almost fell off the bed. The funny brother's specialty program is to use his unique method to "tutor" the English of our younger sisters. Although his teachings are not profound and simple, they are particularly memorable for us.
"It's time to eat..." His father greeted him, and his younger brother hurriedly jumped to the table, looking at the table of delicious dishes with envy. The adults all said in unison: "I almost forgot this important thing." We also realized that we haven't received the New Year's money yet. Although we have experienced this tradition for many years, I still feel a little embarrassed to accept the red envelope.
What could be happier than a big family gathering around the table to eat New Year’s Eve dinner together? At this time, the Spring Festival Gala on TV seemed not to be very attractive.
The last program of the year is to set off fireworks to welcome the arrival of the new year. When we walked out of the house, the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival seemed to be exaggerated outside, and it became less cold. One after another, gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night sky. We raised our heads and were immersed in this beautiful sky. "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0!" As we count down together, the New Year finally arrives with our cheers. The joy and joy were beyond words, and everyone smiled and stared at each other in silence.
Recalling last year’s Spring Festival, I seem to be able to feel the special charm of this unique festival. Now, I feel how I felt last year, and I look forward to getting everyone together again.
There are many things in the New Year, but one thing makes me happiest.
It was a sunny afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, the sky was blue, the wind was blowing gently, bringing a warm feeling of spring. It was really a good weather for flying a kite. So my dad and I decided to go to the gym and fly a kite.
My father and I came to the gymnasium with kites. Wow, a lot of people were flying kites. Their kites were of various types, some looked like tigers, some looked like dragonflies, some looked like centipedes... and How beautiful it is, fluttering in the wind. I can't wait to put my kite in the sky at once. I started flying the kite. I ran and ran, and the kite finally flew up. But when I stopped, the kite staggered down. I started running again, and the kite flew up again. I ran in the gym. The kite kept flying higher and higher, but it was still not as high as others. I couldn't run anymore. When I stopped, the kite staggered and fell down again, but I was so tired that I was sweating profusely.
I asked my father with my head down and not down: "Dad, why can't my kite fly?" Dad said: "Flying a kite is to use the power of the wind. The wind blows the kite, so when you fly it, you have to face the wind. This way It saves effort, and I don’t need to run all the time. "I followed my father’s instructions and flew into the wind. Really, the kite started to fly even before running, and it flew higher and higher. Finally, I could see it flying in the sky. Watching the kite flying in the sky, watching it fluttering its straps energetically, I couldn't be happier with the way it flew. I kept shouting: "Dad, Dad, is the kite high..." Dad was so happy. Said: "High, high." My heart also flew up in the sky with the kite. Jumping with joy and shouting with joy.
As the sky gradually darkened, I had to take down the string of the kite and reluctantly went home. This time I was very happy. Not only did I fly the kite into the sky, but I also let people know that no matter what you do in the future, you must observe more, use your brain more, and think of ways, and you will definitely succeed.
The Spring Festival is the most solemn festival for the Chinese people. There are many unique customs during the Spring Festival, such as eating New Year’s Eve dinner, watching the Spring Festival Gala, wearing new clothes, setting off firecrackers, and giving New Year’s money. Of course, posting Spring Festival couplets is essential. Speaking of Spring Festival couplets,
The peach symbols in the poem refer to Spring Festival couplets. During the Chinese New Year, every family must replace the old Spring Festival couplets and put up new Spring Festival couplets.
Ever since I started learning calligraphy in the first grade of elementary school, writing and sending Spring Festival couplets every Spring Festival has become a required course for me. Relatives and friends all ask me for Spring Festival couplets.
I feel more confident writing Spring Festival couplets during the Spring Festival in the Year of the Ox. The year before last, I was practicing regular script, and last year I started practicing official script again. I wrote a piece of Tang poetry in both regular and official scripts, and took part in the national calligraphy level seven qualification examination. Therefore, I wrote all the Spring Festival couplets this year in official script. After several years of calligraphy practice, I feel that my ability to read and write calligraphy has been greatly improved. My ability to analyze and process the structure and layout of fonts has also improved greatly. I have become more proficient in analyzing and using basic strokes. Therefore, this year's Spring Festival couplets The writing is more decent, and the characteristics of official script are also more realistic.
In writing the Spring Festival couplets, I also deepened my understanding of the meaning of the Spring Festival couplets. Pay attention to sending different Spring Festival couplets to different people. For example, I gave this Spring Festival couplet to my almost 90-year-old wife: the first couplet is "The spring breeze brings me great wealth", the second couplet is "The rising sun comes to my door and brings happiness and prosperity", and the horizontal couplet is "The lucky star shines high". It means: The sun shines on the whole family, I wish the elderly happiness, health and longevity, and the whole family happiness. The wife was very happy and smiled from ear to ear.
This year I paid special attention to reading Spring Festival couplets and interpreting them while writing them. It is worth mentioning that I came to appreciate three unique and interesting couplets. One is "the first couplet is 2345, the second couplet is 6789, and the horizontal lines are north and south." The skillful use of numbers and harmonies, and the method of filling gaps, expresses a meaning. Literally, the first couplet lacks "one", the second couplet lacks "ten", and there is no "thing" in the horizontal line. I understand it should be "short of clothes, food, and things. This family is very poor. Secondly," the first line is "一一一一一一一一一一一一", and the second line is 十十十十十palashishi", which lacks a horizontal line. Literally, a lot of "一" in the first line can be understood as abundant, that is, abundant clothing (one) one, and enough "shi" in the second line can be understood as sufficient food (shi). "Feng clothing and sufficient food" can be interpreted as horizontal batch. I understand. What this couplet wants to express is: having enough food and clothing, and living a prosperous life. The third is "The first couplet is long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long." An interesting couplet composed of different pronunciations of polysyllabic words. The real meaning is chang zhang chang zhang chang chang zhang, and the second couplet is zhang chang zhang chang zhang zhang chang. It is said that this is a couplet written by a person who is engaged in bean sprout production. He hopes that the bean sprouts he produces will grow (zhang) and grow (chang) every day. The horizontal batch I assign should be: the longer (zhang), the longer (chang).
By learning and writing Spring Festival couplets. It made me understand that China’s Chinese characters are very rich. Spring couplets are artistic masterpieces of Chinese culture.
It inherits the long history of Chinese culture and is a wonderful flower in traditional Chinese culture. During the festival, Spring Festival couplets set off the joy of the festival and communicate the feelings between people. As a descendant of Yan and Huang, I love Chinese culture and I like learning and writing Spring Festival couplets.
