The Spring Festival
The spring festival is the Chinese New Year. It has been celebrated all over china since ancient times on the first day of the first month in Chinese lunar calendar.
People begin to prepare for it several days before the New Year. They clean their houses up and buy decorations and many kinds of good food. Every family prepares something special.
The celebration starts on New Year's Eve, the last day of the lunar year. In the daytime people stick pictures of the god of wealth on their doors. Red paper characters like “ 福 ” (good luck) and so on. In the evening, every family holds a feast. All the members of the family try to return home for the gathering, no matter how faraway they are. They sit together, eating delicious food, talking about interesting things and enjoying wonderful programs on TV. After the big dinner people stay up till midnight to welcome the New Year with firecrackers.
On New Year's Day people get up very early. They dress in new clothes and say “Happy New Year” to each other. Over the next few days they are busy visiting their relatives and friends. Children enjoy visiting because they can get “Ya Sui” money from the elders, that's part of the reason, anyway.
Dragon dances, Yangko dances and other performances are also parts of the celebrations which last for 15 days. Debts are settled, conflicts are compromised and everybody is happy.
People wish themselves good luck and hope each New Year is better than the last.
