端午节的由来英文版如下:
The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double Fifth Festival, is celebrated on thefifth day of the fifth moon of the lunar calendar. lt is one of the most important Chinesefestivals, the other two being the Autumn Moon Festival and Chinese New Year。
The origin of this summer festival centers around a scholarly government officialnamed Chu Yuan. He was a good and respected man, but because of the misdeeds of jealousrivals he eventually fell into disfavor in the emperor's court.
Unable to regain the respect of the emperor, in his sorrow Chu Yuan threw himself intothe Mi Low river. Because of their admiration for Chu Yuan, the local people livingadjacent to the Mi Lo River rushed into their boats to search for him while throwing riceinto the waters to appease the river dragons.
Although they were unable to find Chu Yuan, their efforts are still commemorated todayduring the Dragon Boat Festival.
端午节,又称为五五节,因为端午节是在农历的五月五日,是三个重要的中国节庆之一,其他两个分别是中秋节和农历新年。
这个节日的由来是古代中国有一位博学多闻的官吏屈原,他是一位爱民而且又受到尊崇的官吏,但是由於一位充满嫉妒的官吏陷害,从此在朝廷中被皇帝所冷落。由於无法获得皇帝的重视,屈原在忧郁的情况下投泪罗江自尽。
由於对屈原的爱戴,泪罗江畔的居民匆忙的划船在江内寻找屈原,并且将米丢入泪罗江中,以平息泪罗江中的蛟龙。即使他们当时并没有找到屈原,但是他们的行为,直到今天在端午节的时候,仍然被人们传颂纪念着。
