Mid-autumn Day is a Chinese festival。It usually es in September or October 。On that day we usually eat a big dinner and mooncakes。It is said "Hou Yi" missed his wife,so he made mooncakes。It looks like the moon。
There are many kinds of mooncakes。They are small round cakes with meat, nuts or something sweet inside 。eating mooncakes has been our custom。Families stay outside in the open air eat a big dinner and mooncakes。The most important thing is looking at the moon, On that day, the moon kooks brighter and rounder。We call this moon the full moon。
On that day, families get together, so we call this day getting together。This is Mid-autumn Day。I love it very much。Because on that day I can eat mooncakes。And my brother es back home。He works outside all year。Only that day and the Spring Festival。He es back。So that day I am especially happy。On that day my family gets together。
I think Mid-Autumn Day is an old traditional festival in China。Everybody likes it because it's a family get-together。You see it is called"Mid-Autumn Day", so it often es in September or October。It is on the 15th of the 8th of the lunar month。Now, let's say something about this interesting festival。
Firstly, I'd like to say something about the moon。I like it very much because I want to be an astronaut in the future。That day the moon is round, big, just like a beautiful plate hanging on the blue cloth。When I see the moon, I will remember the ancient myths——the godess Chang Er and her little rabbit are playing under the tree which Wu Gang grows。I will also think about Armstrong's first moonwalk。I will also miss the friends in Tai-wan island, in Macao and Chinese people who are abroad。I know they are missing us very much, too。
Secondly, I'11 say something about the tradition on Mid-Autumn Day。Look!There's a big tree in a garden of a Chinese fami-ly。All the family members are sitting around a big table under the tree in the open air。They are eating the mooncakes and admiring the full moon in the sky。That is a family reunion dinner。The mooncakes and the moon represent the love from a family。I think this is one of the most valuable things in the world。
Thirdly,it is a very good opportunity to make three wishes on Mid-Autumn Day。My wishes are: the first, I, an astronaut in the future, would like to go to the moon one day, and stay with the sky and stars; the second, I hope every person in the world will stay with family, share love from the family forever; the third, I hope everybody's dream will e true。
That is the Mid-Autumn Day in my mind。I will always re-member: East or West, home is best。
Mid-autumn Festival is a popular and important lunar harvest festival celebrated by Chinese people。The festival is held on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese calendar。There are some traditions in this holiday。For example, people would have a big dinner with there families。After dinner, they often enjoy the full moon which is round and bright。The other tradition of mid-autumn festival is eating moon cake。Moon cake is the essential of that day, which means reunion。As time goes by, there are various kinds of moon cakes, but they are much more expensive than before。I like mid-autumn festival because my families will get together and have a big dinner on that day。
The Mid-Autumn Festival has all interesting history。Long ago in one of the dynasties of China there was a king who was very cruel to the people and did not manage the country well。The people were so angry that some brave ones suggested killing the king。So they wrote notes telling about the meeting place and time and put them into cakes。On the 15th day of the 8th lunar month every person was told to buy the cakes。When they ate them they discovered the notes。So they gathered together to make a sudden attack on the king。From then on the Chinese people celebrate on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month and eat "moon cakes" in memory of that important event。
When the Mid-Autumn Festival is near, shop windows are beautifully decorated。Many "moon cakes" are displayed for people to buy。People send presents such aswine, fruits and "moon cakes" to their friends and relatives。In the evening of the day, they have a feast。After the feast, they go out to the garden to look at the moon。The children run and laugh on the streets。
It is believed that the moon is at her brightest on this night。Many poems have been written about it, and poets are never tired of reading and writing such poems。In Chinese literature, the moon of the Mid Autumn Festival has been pared to a looking-glass, a jade rabbit, and so on。It seems that Chinese literature takes far more interest in the moon than in the sun。
