“粽子香，香廚房。艾草香，香滿堂。桃枝插在大門上，出門一望麥兒黃。這兒端陽，那兒端陽，處處都端陽。”

這是奶奶在端午節時教我的歌謠。記得爸爸常跟我説起他童年的往事，在他的故事裏，端午節對他是一個充滿好奇而又充滿期待的節日：在初夏那個節日的晚上，剝開一個粽子，滿屋飄香，大家圍在一起，小孩纏着大人講那個熟悉但卻百聽不厭的故事：兩千多年以前，古老的中國戰火紛飛，在農曆五月初五的那一天，有一位憂國憂民的愛國詩人看到自己的國家面臨着亡國危運，而他心中的抱負卻無法實現，他悲痛欲絕懷抱着石頭投向波濤滾滾的汨羅江，他就是屈原；漁民划着船，四處尋找他們愛戴的屈原，他們為了讓水中的魚兒不吃掉屈原的身體，就把糯米裹在散發着清香的竹葉裏，投到了江裏……每當故事講到這時，大人們總會指着天空説：“你看，天空中那顆最明亮的星星，就是屈原化成的。”而小孩子們便會抬起頭遙望着那深邃的天空，尋找那顆最明亮的星星。

又到一年粽飄香，你是否對端午節有所期待呢？吃着粽子，是否能吃出粽子中的那段故事？遙望天空，隔着籠罩着的濛濛工業霧氣，是否還能望得見天上那顆閃耀的星星？

高樓大廈平地而起，大片的麥田消失了，在城市的邊緣，我們已經很難看見“出門一望麥兒黃”的景象了。是啊，時空的變換，端午節是否也在這鋼筋水泥的擠壓中越走越遠呢？喧鬧的城市，承載着人們太多的慾望，父輩們的歡樂，是否已淹沒在城市的閃爍的霓虹燈中了呢？

我們已經不能理解父輩們少時的期待了，只要我想，隨時都可以吃到各式各樣的粽子，而粽子的味道似乎也越來也乏味，而我們感興趣的是笑容可掬的麥當勞叔叔，那慈眉善目的肯德雞爺爺；我們也對那古老的故事也缺乏興趣了，只要我想，我隨時可以在網上看米老鼠和唐老鴨！對奶奶教我的歌謠，我也覺得有些老土，只要我想，我隨時可以在我的MP3播放器中錄製各類搖滾歌曲！

然而，我們沒有感到缺少了一些什麼嗎？我們似乎缺少了一些快樂，缺少了一些嚮往，缺少了一些責任。在喧鬧中，我們正在迷失方向！

"Dumplings incense, incense kitchen. Ai grass incense, incense fertility. Peach sticks inserted in the door, looking out of wheat yellow. Duanyang here, there duanyang, everywhere duanyang."

This is the song grandma taught me during the Dragon Boat Festival. Remember father always told me about his childhood, in his story, the Dragon Boat Festival for he is a curious and expectant festival: in early summer the night of the festival, which opened a rice dumplings, house full of fragrance, you gather in together, kids pestering adults tell the story of the familiar can't get enough but: more than two thousand years ago, the ancient Chinese wars, in the day of the fifth lunar month, is a patriotic poet still see their country is faced with crisis of subjugation, and his heart ambition is not possible, grief at his arms for the stones into the miluo river waves roll, he was qu yuan; Fishermen rowing the boat, and search for their love of qu yuan, in order to let the fish in the water they don't eat qu yuan's body, the glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo leaves, faint scent, throw into the river... Every time the story is told, the grown-ups will point to the sky and say, "look, the brightest star in the sky is the one that qu yuan has turned into." And the children would look up at the deep sky and look for the brightest star.

After another year, do you have any expectations for the Dragon Boat Festival? Eating zongzi, can you eat the story in zongzi? Can you see the shining star in the sky?

From the ground up, large fields of wheat have disappeared, and on the edge of the city, it is hard to see the sight of "go out and see the yellow." Is it, the transformation of space and time, whether the Dragon Boat Festival is also in the squeeze of the concrete and steel the farther and farther away? The noisy cities, which carry too much of the appetite of the people, the joys of our fathers, have drowned in the flashing neon lights of the city?

We have already can't understand when fathers are looking forward to, as long as I want to, can eat to all kinds of dumplings, and the taste of zongzi also seems to be the more to also boring, and we are interested in is smiling McDonald's uncle, the personality of the KFC grandpa; We also have a lack of interest in that old story, as long as I think I can always watch Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck on the Internet! I also think that some of the songs that my grandmother taught me were a bit old-fashioned, as long as I thought, I can always record rock songs in my MP3 player!

But don't we feel the lack of something? We seem to lack some happiness, lack of yearning, and a lack of responsibility. In the noise, we are getting lost!

端午節到咯！我們家特地買來一盒粽子來歡度端午。我津津有味地品嚐着美味的粽子，不禁讚道：“真是好吃，希望每天都是端午節。”話音剛落，我就聽見媽媽足以傳遍整棟樓的尖叫，我和爸爸急忙趕過去。

只見媽媽指着一個房間的門，驚恐地説：“這怎麼回事！”我和爸爸不約而同地往門內一望，同時被嚇到了。我的天啊！這房間裏面擺得全都是大大小小的盒裝粽子！我連忙掐了自己一下，“哎喲，痛死我了……看來不是夢……”

“你去！”爸爸媽媽互相對望一眼，極有默契地雙手一推，把我推入“粽海”。

“膽小鬼！”我一邊抱怨一邊望向粽子包裝盒。只見盒子上赫然寫着幾個大字“雷神牌粽子”，然後下面是一個造型驚人的“神”，後面跟着歌詞“偶雷偶雷偶雷偶雷……”我愕然，難道這就是傳説中的“雷神”！

為了解決這不速之客——“雷神牌粽子”，我和爸媽訪親拜友，白送粽子。送的人家都不好意思要了。哪知送完了一批粽子還剩一大堆，堆的跟山一樣高。

為了正常的作息，奪回被粽子霸佔的房間。我被迫當起了小販。每天放完學就一邊寫作業，一邊賣粽子。可是端午節都過去了，生意慘淡啊！我埋沒在一堆粽子裏，過往的人們在粽子前面紛紛議論，“這孩子真可憐，哪位好心人，把她的粽子買幾盒送到廢品收購站吧……”我汗如雨下。

因為學習退步的緣故，老媽結束了我的“小販生涯”，她一臉沉重的告訴我後果——那就是，每天一日三餐都得多加2個大粽子！

這項決定導致我一聽跟粽子諧音或沾邊的詞胃裏就開始翻滾。可那一大堆粽子還是不見少……

下一個端午要來了，我們還在與粽子作艱苦鬥爭，這就是我們家傳説中的“粽子戰爭”。這粽子好像怎麼吃也吃不完。

就在我們一家陷入絕望時，一個唱着“偶雷偶雷偶雷偶雷……”的東西(？)經過，一聽歌詞，怎麼那麼耳熟？我一看，天哪！竟然是雷神！(這形象已深入我心。)我看見他馬上大吼：“我不要房間裏的這些粽子啦！！”，一瞬間，那些“雷神牌粽子”消失的無影無蹤。我長舒一口氣，終於不用再受折磨了。

下一個端午前夕。爸爸又抱着一大盒粽子回到家，我看着這一情景，默默地站了很久，然後像紙片一樣輕飄飄地跌在地面。在昏倒之前，我用最後一絲氣息緩緩説道：“我不要再吃……“雷神牌”粽子了……”

然後昏倒在地。

爸爸看着我，緩緩説道：“這是今年的粽子。”

The Dragon Boat Festival is here! Our family specially bought a box of zongzi to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival. I tasted the delicious dumplings with relish, and said, "it's delicious. I hope it's Dragon Boat Festival every day." As soon as I heard it, I heard my mother screaming in the whole building, and my father and I hurried over.

She pointed to the door of a room and said in horror, "what's going on?" My father and I looked at each other in the door, and we were frightened. Oh my god! The room was full of small boxes of rice dumplings! I quickly pinched myself, "ouch, it hurts me... it doesn't look like a dream..."

"You go! Mom and dad looked at each other, and they pushed me into the sea of rice.

"Coward! As I complained, I looked at the dumplings box. See box impressively write letters "thor" brand rice dumplings ", then the following is a modelling "god", followed by the words "accidentally LeiOu LeiOu LeiOu ray..." I am stunned, this is the legend of "thor"!

In order to solve this unexpected guest, "thor zongzi", my parents and I visited our relatives and sent zongzi. The people in the house were embarrassed to ask for it. There is a lot of zongzi left, and the pile is as high as the mountain.

In order to get a normal routine, retake the room which is occupied by zongzi. I was forced to be a peddler. Finish your homework every day and sell zongzi. But the Dragon Boat Festival is over. I buried in a pile of rice dumplings, past people whispering in front of the rice dumplings, "the child is really poor, which good intention, send her dumplings a few boxes to the junkyard..." I sweat like a rain.

For the sake of learning step mom over my "vendor lives", she told me a face of heavy consequences - that is, three meals a day every day must add 2 big rice dumplings!

This decision caused me to start rolling in my stomach with the word "zongzi" or "the word". But that big pile of dumplings is still missing...

The next Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and we are still struggling with zongzi. This is the "zongzi war" in our legend. The dumplings seem to be eating and eating.

As one of our family was in despair, one of them sang "the occasional thunderer." (?) After listening to the lyrics, how do you know? Oh, my god! Thor! This image has penetrated my heart. I saw him roar at once: "I don't want the dumplings in the room!!" In a flash, those "thor dumplings" disappeared. I breathed a sigh of relief, and finally I didn't have to suffer any more.

The next Dragon Boat Festival eve. My father came home with a big box of zongzi, and I watched the scene, standing silently for a long time, then falling on the ground like a piece of paper. Before I fainted, I slowly said, "I don't want to eat..." Thor: "dumplings..."

Then he fainted in the ground.

Dad looked at me and said slowly, "this is the zongzi this year."

一年一度的端午即將來臨，我抱着萬分期待的心情等待着……

賽龍舟，是端午節的主要習俗。源於古時候，楚國人因捨不得賢臣屈原投江死去，許多人划船追趕去拯救。他們爭先恐後，追至洞庭湖時不見蹤跡。之後每年五月五日划龍舟以紀念之。借划龍舟驅散江中之魚，以免魚吃掉屈原的身體。

端午節我們是要吃粽子的，這是中國人民的傳統習俗。粽子被正式定為端午節食品。這時，包粽子的原料除糯米外，還添加中藥益智仁，煮熟的粽子稱“益智粽米中摻雜、板栗、紅棗、赤豆等，品種增多。粽子還用作交往的禮品。

名家艾、艾蒿。它的莖、葉都含有揮發性芳香油。它所產生的奇特芳香，可驅蚊蠅、蟲蟻，淨化空氣。菖蒲是多年生水生草本植物，它狹長的葉片也含有揮發性芳香油，是提神通竅、健骨消滯、殺蟲滅菌的藥物

可見，古人插艾和菖蒲是有一定防病作用的。端午節也是自古相傳的“衞生節”，人們在這一天灑掃庭院，掛艾枝，懸菖蒲，灑雄黃水，飲雄黃酒，激濁除腐，殺菌防病。這些活動也反映了中華民族的優良傳統。

到了唐代，粽子的用米，已“白瑩如玉”，其形狀出現錐形、菱形。粽子的包裹料已從菰葉變革為箬葉，後來又出現用蘆葦葉包的粽子，附加料已出現豆沙、豬肉、松子仁、棗子、胡桃等等，品種更加豐富多彩。

一直到今天，每年五月初，中國百姓家家都要浸糯米、洗粽葉、包粽子，其花色品種更為繁多。從餡料看，北方多包小棗的北京棗粽；南方則有豆沙、鮮肉、火腿、蛋黃等多種餡料，其中以浙江嘉興粽子為代表。

Duanwu Festival (端午節, Duānwū Jié) 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(引用;引證) needed] It has since been celebrated, in various ways, in other parts of East Asia as well. In the West, it's commonly known as Dragon Boat Festival.

The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear, but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan (c. 340 BC-278 BC) 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 fish so they would not eat Qu's body. They also sat on long, narrow paddle boats called dragon boats, and tried to scare the fish away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking carved dragon head on the boat's prow(船頭).

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(名聲名望).

Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings called zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fish) and race dragon boats in memory of Qu's dramatic death.

泱華夏，盛開着五十六朵民族之花。不同的地區、不同的民族，都有着自己獨具特色的民風民俗。不一樣的節日，不一樣的穿着，不一樣的食物，不一樣的居民……在我們這個大中國裏有許許多多的傳統節日：有中秋節，端午節，重陽節，元宵節，清明節……在這麼多的節日裏我最喜歡的還是歸“端午節”莫屬。“端午”一個多麼起眼的詞語，它的大名家喻户曉，與它相關的傳説更是無人不知，無人不曉。

關於端午節有許許多多的習俗：吃粽子，賽龍舟，插艾草……我最喜歡的當然還是吃粽子啦！

每年的五月初五是端午節。這一天早早的，大街小巷，家家户户都瀰漫着清新的粽葉香。這一天人們要吃粽子，所以不論是商家店鋪，還是尋常人家都早早泡好粽葉，備好黏米和餡料準備包粽子。這不，一大早粽子就似變魔術般被包好，煮熟了。這時心急的我望着冒着熱氣的粽子會吵着要吃，而爸爸會耐心地哄道：“先等一會兒，用涼水拔一下再吃吧。”終於可以吃了，我迫不及待地剝開粽葉，那好看的，黏黏的粽露了出來，咬一口真是香粽爽滑，三口兩口吃掉後，我一般還要吃，誰讓它這樣香甜又可口呢！

在香甜可口的粽子後面有着一個家喻户曉的民間故事：相傳在古時候，有一位愛國詩人，叫屈原。他有淵博的知識和傑出的才華。但當時朝廷因被賤人所挑撥，屈原被輕視，無人欣賞他的才華。不僅如此，當時朝廷腐敗無能。屈原無法忍受朝廷的腐敗，竟跳進汨羅江自盡了。他的故事被人一代代流傳下去。於是人們為了紀念他，每逢五月五日端午佳節都包粽子投入江中，防止江裏的魚兒吃屈原的屍體。
