小学六年级英语作文:关于端午节英语作文
Dragon Boat Festival, often known as Tuen Ng Festival or
Duan Wu Festival, is a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth
day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar. It is also known as
the Double Fifth.[citation needed] It has since been celebrated, in
various ways, in other parts of East Asia as well, most notably
Korea.
The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear, but one traditional
view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan
of the Warring States Period. He committed suicide by drowning
himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the
Chu government. The local people, knowing him to be a good
man, decided to throw food into the river to feed the fishes to
prevent them from eating Qu's body. They also sat on dragon boats,
and tried to scare the fishes away by the thundering sound of drums
aboard the boat and the fierce looking dragon-head in the front of the
boat.
In the early years of the Chinese Republic, Duan Wu was also
celebrated as “Poets' Day”, due to Qu Yuan's status as China'
s first poet of personal renown.
