The following is a speech I compiled about Qingming. It is for reference only. Everyone is welcome to read it. Speech about Qingming Festival 1
Dear students, do you know that Qingming Festival will be in a few days. my country's traditional Qingming Festival began around the Zhou Dynasty and has a history of more than 2,500 years. Qingming is a very important solar term at the beginning. Once Qingming arrives, the temperature will rise. It is a good time for spring plowing and spring planting. Therefore, there is a farmer's proverb "Afforestation is better than Qingming". Later, because the days of Qingming and Hanshi were close, and Hanshi was a day when folk people banned fire and visited graves, gradually, Hanshi and Qingming merged into one, and Hanshi became not only another name for Qingming, but also a custom during Qingming. .
As this year’s Tomb-Sweeping Day is approaching, I feel that we should first deeply remember the compatriots who died in the Wenchuan earthquake and the PLA soldiers who bravely rescued us. As everyone knows, on May 12, 20xx, a magnitude 8.0 earthquake occurred centered in Wenchuan, Sichuan. Wenchuan is a quiet town in Sichuan Province, backed by Qingcheng Mountain and adjacent to Dujiangyan and Chengdu to the west. However, at 14:28, the previous peace here was broken by this sudden earthquake.
Do you still remember a female teacher named Du Zhengxiang? When the earthquake came and the school collapsed, she lay in the rubble, with her head facing the door, holding two young children tightly with both hands. The child is still protecting three young lives on his chest. It turned out that she was going to take the children out of the teaching building that was about to collapse. She used her shoulders to block the falling beams for the children. When the People's Liberation Army rescued them, the five children were still safe and sound with only minor injuries, but teacher Du Zhengxiang was already deceased. When I saw this story on the news, I was deeply shocked by the noble character of Teacher Du Zhengxiang. I believe that everyone here is also deeply moved by me.
Today, it has been 10 months since the Wenchuan earthquake, but the touching scenes that occurred during the earthquake are replayed in our minds all the time. Those who acted bravely and sacrificed themselves for others during the earthquake should be respected and remembered by us. On the upcoming Tomb-Sweeping Day, we should commemorate those heroic sacrifices. It is they who let us understand what is noble and what is touching.
We live in Shanghai, an international metropolis, and there are many excellent teachers who are caring and educationally intelligent to teach us. Compared with the people in Wenchuan, how happy we are. Therefore, we must know how to cherish it. There is nothing we can do for those who have passed away. The only thing we can do is to live well, healthily and happily.
Finally, I wish the students a meaningful Qingming Festival! Speech about Qingming 2
Dear teachers and students:
Qingming Festival It is one of my country's traditional festivals and one of the twenty-four solar terms of the lunar calendar.
In our Shaoxing water town, there is a custom of worshiping deceased relatives and eating moxa dumplings during the Tomb Sweeping Day. During the Qingming Festival in ancient times, there were also customs such as banning fire, outing, Cuju, planting willows, and eating mugwort cakes, green dumplings, rice dumplings, Qingming snails and other foods. Tomb-sweeping Festival is an important traditional Chinese folk festival and one of the important "Eight Festivals" (Shangyuan, Qingming, Beginning of Summer, Dragon Boat Festival, Zhongyuan, Mid-Autumn Festival, Winter Solstice and New Year's Eve).
In the spring when it is still a bit cold, it is forbidden to eat cold food. I am afraid that some old, weak, women and children will not be able to bear the cold, and in order to prevent cold food and cold meals from harming the body, so we have planned outings, picnics, and swinging. Swings, football, polo, willow planting, tug-of-war, cockfighting and other outdoor activities allow everyone to come out and bask in the sun, stretch their muscles and bones, and increase their resistance. Therefore, in addition to paying homage to ancestors and sweeping their tombs, the Qingming Festival also includes various outdoor fitness activities. This festival not only has the sentimental feeling of being careful about the end, but also combines the atmosphere of joy and spring appreciation; Fresh and bright vivid scene. It is really a very unique and special festival. Tomb sweeping during the Qingming Festival is a festival related to funeral customs. According to records, in ancient times, there were "tombs without tombs", which meant that only grave pits were dug and no tombs were built. Therefore, sacrifices and sweeps are not recorded in the records. Later, the tombs were added to the tombs, and the custom of offering sacrifices and sweeping came to have support. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, tomb sacrifices had become an indispensable ritual activity.
"Hanshu·Yan Yannian Biography" records that even if Yan is thousands of miles away from Beijing, he will "return to the East China Sea to sweep the cemetery" during the Qingming Festival. Judging from the development and strength of Chinese people's ancestor worship and kinship consciousness, Yan Yannian's actions are reasonable and reasonable. Therefore, later generations also included the tomb sacrifices that were not standardized in ancient times into the Five Rites: "In the homes of scholars and common people, it is appropriate to visit the tomb, and it is included in the Five Rites, which will always be the norm." With official approval, the trend of tomb sacrifices will inevitably flourish. .
Qingming Festival, this traditional festival, will definitely be passed down from generation to generation. Speech about Qingming 3

Teenager friends, work hard! Speech on Qingming 7
Dear teachers and classmates
Good afternoon everyone!
It’s Qingming Festival again. Today we came to the Wujin Martyrs Cemetery to pay homage to the heroic souls of the martyrs and remember their great achievements.
Once upon a time, in the long years of revolutionary struggle, how many of our heroic sons and daughters in Wujin shed their blood in their hometown and in other places for the liberation of the nation and the happiness of the people. Some of them have names throughout the ages, and some do not even know their names, but they all come together for a common goal, which is to fight for the cause of communism. The martyrs sacrificed their lives and shed their blood, marched forward one after another, and would rather die than surrender in front of the enemy. They were proud and displayed their fearless heroism and set an example for our descendants. They are our pride and our glory!
It is precisely because the martyrs exchanged their blood and lives for our happy life and peace and tranquility today that we can study happily in a comfortable environment. Maybe we can't understand the hardships of the war-torn era, but we understand that happiness is hard-won.
All we have to do is work hard to learn scientific and cultural knowledge, inherit and carry forward the indomitable fighting spirit of the martyrs, and face difficult challenges at any time!
Green mountains stand tall and green waters sing. We will always remember and praise the deeds of the revolutionary martyrs, inherit the martyrs’ legacy, and contribute to the construction of the motherland! Speech about Qingming Festival 8
Dear teachers and dear students:
Hello everyone! The title of my speech today is "Repaying the Ancestors with Actions".
There is a legend about the Qingming Festival: It is said that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, in order to let her son Chong'er succeed to the throne, the concubine of Duke Xian of Jin set up a poisonous plot to kill the prince Shen Sheng, who was forced to commit suicide. Chong'er fled out of the city for his own safety. In the end, Chong'er only had a few loyal ministers. One time, Chong'er fainted from hunger. A loyal minister named Jie Zitui cut off a piece of meat from his own body, roasted it over fire and gave it to Chong'er. Chong'er's illness was cured. Later, Chong'er became the king and wanted Jie Zitui to come and appoint officials. Jie Zitui refused and fled into Mianshan Mountain. () In order to let Jie Zitui become a high official, Chong'er set fire to the mountain so that Jie Zitui could come out. The fire burned for three days and three nights before it was extinguished. I didn't see Jie Zitui push out. When I went into the mountain, I saw that Jie Zitui and his mother were dead holding a tree. There was a hole in the tree, and there was a bloody poem written on the clothes inside: I cut my flesh to serve you with my loyalty, I hope. The Lord is always clear and bright. The ghost under the willow finally disappeared, better than a companion... Later, Chong'er changed Mianshan to Jieshan, and April 5th was designated as Qingming Festival every year.
Although we live in peace today, there are not as many wars as there were back then. But then I thought about it, this life in peace was bought with the blood of so many revolutionaries! Without them, could our New China be established? Will we have such a good time now? And in what way do our classmates now repay and face the heroic spirits of their ancestors? Some students study hard, but what about others? After returning home, everyone is a little emperor or a little princess. How sad is this?
We are about to go to the Martyrs Cemetery. I hope that the students will continue to strive for self-improvement in the future and repay their ancestors with excellent results and a spirit of self-improvement!
My speech is over, thank you everyone! Speech about Qingming Festival 9
Hello everyone!
The annual Qingming Festival is here again. Qingming Festival is a traditional festival for the Chinese nation to worship ancestors and sweep their tombs. Qingming is also one of the twenty-four solar terms.
In my hometown, the main custom of Qingming Festival is to visit tombs and worship ancestors. Therefore, Qingming is also called the "Ghost Festival". Folks also have the custom of visiting graves and adding to graves. The younger generation brings burning paper, offerings, etc. to the graves of their deceased relatives, burns paper and kowtows. Finally, new soil is added to the grave and a white note is pressed on the grave. I heard from the old people that they were building houses for their deceased relatives in case of heavy rains and leaks in summer. This is a way to express condolences to deceased relatives. At this time, I remembered the poem "Qingming" by the great poet Du Mu: "It rains heavily during the Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road want to die. If I ask where the restaurant is, the shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village."
Qingming Festival is in full swing. In spring, everything revives, the spring scenery is bright, the flowers are red and the willows are green, and there is a vibrant scene everywhere. In addition to tomb sweeping, there are also outings and outings. At this time, people will take their families to play in the wild to relax themselves from the tension caused by work and to increase the harmonious atmosphere of the family. There was also the custom of outing in ancient times, which has been passed down to this day. The painter Zhang Zeduan's work "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" vividly depicts the lively scene of people in the capital outing for an outing during the Qingming Festival.
Qingming Festival is also a good season for tree planting. Therefore, there are also activities of planting willows and trees. I heard from the old people that there was a proverb in the old days: "If you don't plant willows during the Qingming Festival, you will turn into a yellow dog next year."
In addition to the above customs, there is also the custom of eating eggs. This is just like the custom of eating dumplings during the Spring Festival, rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival, and moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. With the development of society, some of these customs have been eliminated, some have been passed down to this day, and some have added new content.
In addition to these customs during Qingming, there are also fun activities for our friends, such as swinging and flying kites. The most fun thing to do is fly a kite. Everyone ran around in a wide open space, laughing and laughing, and together they sent the kite into the blue sky. Let's fly joy, dreams, and hope together... Speech about Qingming Festival 10
On the 23rd day of the second lunar month in the year 20xx of the Great People’s Republic of China, the year of Guiji, the Qingming Festival was held to commemorate the good fortune of the ancestors. The heirs and grandsons of the whole clan prepared incense, candles, paper, money, wine and other unconventional rituals to pay homage to the Wang family. In front of the tomb of the fourth generation ancestor, Emperor Chengong and the grandmother of the Zhou family, I send a blessing message 'say'
Every year is Qingming, and today is Qingming again. Time goes by, and the road to heaven is far away. I miss my relatives far away and express my sincere gratitude to my family. The ancestors and ancestors will be famous for centuries. It was the Qingming Festival, and I was repairing graves to worship my ancestors. I missed my ancestors deeply. I was born in Shawan, with four brothers. They were the eldest in the family. They got married in their first year. They moved with their wives to the village in the pine forest. , lest the descendants forget their roots and cannot find their way home, ancestors, the place names you brought here are still called by your descendants to this day, for more than three hundred springs.
Heshawan was originally a wilderness full of mountains, and the land was in a mess. The emperors and ministers had cultivated it for several years, experienced wind, frost, snow and rain, slashed and burned, changed the world and built a home. They had four children, cherished Yinglian, and their descendants multiplied. The melons and melons stretched endlessly, and they worked hard. Reading, the family fortune will be prosperous, the surrounding area will be large, the land will be cultivated, and the village will be restored. Our clan has also suffered from social changes, internal and external troubles, and we have moved out to seek development on our own. Paying homage to the tombs of our ancestors, we will never forget our roots in Heshawan from generation to generation.
In today's society, the country is prosperous and the people are strong, the society is harmonious, people are working together towards a well-off life, families are gathered together, descendants are everywhere, talents are abundant, scholars, farmers, industry, business and education, etc., abide by the law, perform their duties, and are famous among their neighbors. It also has access to other provinces, counties and cities, and it can be said that it has outstanding people. The soil and water nourish the people, and the ancestors' virtues educate the descendants. In order to carry forward the ancestors' examples, trace the roots and carry them forward, today's descendants, everyone has a pious heart and pays homage to the descendants. The ancestors who were buried here worshiped devoutly, dug up loess, covered it with a layer of mourning, and planted a green cypress in memory. The tomb was repaired and renovated, with a new look and full of vitality. The superior can comfort the ancestors, and the inferior can rejoice the descendants.
The veins of the Emperor's Cemetery come from the branch of Taigu Mountain. It winds and rushes from Miaoertian. After being stripped and exchanged several times for gold and silver, it ended up in a fine cave on Baolong Mountain. It was later called Wangjiafeng Mountain by the tribe. , there are several distant mountains in front of it, like a ladder ascending step by step, the case near it is like a sedan chair, and there are 188 stone steps directly to the sedan chair bearer stone, which is like a wine pot. No wonder the Wang family is so good. Drinking alcohol, this is probably the reason for ancestral Feng Shui. There are 10,000 acres of fertile farmland in Shangzhuangba, and the water mouth is at the junction of two rivers at Yinping Mountain. On the left, the tombs of the Wang family members make way for the newly built Martyrs Cemetery, a holy land of revolution, with shady trees and pavilions for tourists to relax. This pure land has been covered in dust for more than 300 years. It has become so sacred due to the atmosphere of reform and construction. The monument is like a giant, shaped like A general guards the gate, and the lights are bright at dusk. It is surrounded by Beiwa Mountain on the right, and nearby are the graves of descendants guarding and guarding it. Welcome the rising sun in the morning, and bathe in the brilliant sunset at dusk, accompanied by thousands of silver lanterns shining in Chaoyang Community. The ground is warm in the cold spring, and the flowers are fragrant and the birds are chirping. Xia Mo is enjoying the breeze. In autumn, you can see the rolling waves in the valley of Shangzhuangba; in winter, you can see snow-covered scenery, lush grass and trees. Our generation has just woken up. This is the auspicious occasion of our ancestors’ translation and nourishment for future generations.
The ancestors are diligent and kind, the descendants uphold the filial piety, and the heirs and grandsons of the clan gather together today to worship their ancestors and never forget them from generation to generation. The clan members are united, the family is united, and all the members work together. Today, Lei Lei’s tomb construction is completed. , has far-reaching significance, so that descendants will not forget their ancestors, remember their ancestors during every year and festival, and fulfill their duties as sons of man. After the tomb is repaired, the purple air will rise and people will be happy. The descendants will work hard to glorify their ancestors with all their strength, and the glory will shine on the descendants. People, below, are leaping over the soil to carry great virtues, and within the family, they work together to seek development and progress. Above, they comfort their ancestors, and below, they bless their descendants. They carry forward the past and open up the future.
The sacrifice has been completed. If the ancestor has a spirit, he has descended to taste it and protect our family. All industries will prosper and everything will go smoothly
