快乐端午节

今天是农历五月初五为端午节，又称端阳节、午日节、五月节、艾节、端五、重午、午日、夏节。虽然名称不同，但各地人民过节的习俗是相同的。端午节是我国二千多年的旧习俗，每到这一天，家家户户都悬钟馗像，挂艾叶菖蒲，赛龙舟，吃粽子，饮雄黄酒，游百病，佩香囊呢！

上午，我们家就开始包粽子，准备好喂我肚子里的“蛔虫”了。说道端午，大家一定不知道端午节的知识，就让我这个大博士来告诉你们有关端午节的知识吧！

说起端午，我们还得请出一位诗人让他来帮我们先开头说起他吧，可此人到底是何方神圣？他就是大名鼎鼎的爱国诗人——屈原呀！屈原是战国时期出国人，很有学问。他在楚王身边做官，以形象是自己的国家富强起来。昏君楚王却听信奸臣的话，把屈原削职流放。在流放中，屈原听说楚国的的都城被敌人占领，百姓遭难，悲愤极了。五月初五这一天，他来到汨罗江边，怀抱一块石头，以纵身跳入汨罗江中。出国的百姓听到屈原投江的消息，都十分悲痛。他们含着泪划着船赶来打捞屈原，还把粽子扔到江里喂鱼，希望鱼儿不要伤害屈原的身体。这就是五月端阳包粽子的来历。

还是再来说说端午节赛龙舟的故事吧。当时楚人因为舍不得贤臣屈原死去，于是有许多人划船追赶拯救。他们争先恐后，追至洞庭湖时不见踪迹，是为龙舟竞渡之起源，后每年五月五日划龙舟以纪念之。借划龙舟驱散江中之鱼，以免鱼吃掉屈原的尸体。竞渡之习，盛行于吴、越、楚。清乾隆二十九年台湾开始有龙舟竞渡，当时台湾知府蒋元君曾在台南市法华寺半月池主持友谊赛。现在台湾每年五月五日都举行龙舟竞赛。

怎么样这就是我收集到的端午知识，现在大家对端午节有一定的认识了吧，现在大家是不是该为伟大的爱国诗人屈原感到惋惜？如果不是楚王的一意孤行我想屈原还会给我们带来许多不朽的诗篇，可是屈原的纵身跳入洗干净了人们的心，他留下来的不仅是悲壮的诗歌还是自强不息的精神！我相信伟大的爱国诗人永远留在人们心中

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanyang Festival, Noon Day Festival, May Day, Ai Festival, Duanwu Day, Heavy Noon, Noon Day and Summer Day. Although the names are different, the customs of people in different places are the same. Dragon Boat Festival is an old custom in China for more than 2,000 years. Every day, every household hangs the bell, hangs the wormwood leaf calamus, races the dragon boat, eats zongzi, drinks realgar wine, swims all diseases and wears sachets!

In the morning, our family began to make zongzi, ready to feed the "worm" in my stomach. Speaking of Dragon Boat Festival, everyone must not know the knowledge of Dragon Boat Festival. Let me, a great doctor, tell you the knowledge about Dragon Boat Festival.

Speaking of Dragon Boat Festival, we have to invite a poet to help us start with him, but who is this person? He is a famous patriotic poet-Qu Yuan! Qu Yuan was a scholar who went abroad during the Warring States Period. He became an official beside the king of Chu, making his country rich and strong with his image. The bad king Chu listened to the treacherous court official's words and demoted Qu Yuan into exile. In exile, Qu Yuan heard that the capital city of Chu was occupied by the enemy, and the people suffered, which made them extremely angry. On the fifth day of May, he came to the Miluo River and embraced a Stone to jump into the Miluo River. People who went abroad were very sad when they heard the news of Quyuan's investment in the river. They rowed in tears to salvage Qu Yuan, and threw zongzi into the river to feed the fish, hoping that the fish would not hurt Qu Yuan's body. This is the origin of dumplings made in Duanyang in May.

Let's talk about the story of dragon boat racing on the Dragon Boat Festival. At that time, Chu people were reluctant to let Qu Yuan die, so many people rowed boats to chase and save them. They rushed to the Dongting Lake without trace, which was the origin of dragon boat race, and then rowed the dragon boat on May 5th every year to commemorate it. Dispel the fish in the river by rowing dragon boats, so as not to eat Qu Yuan's body. The habit of race crossing prevailed in Wu, Yue and Chu. Dragon boat racing began in Taiwan in the 29th year of Qing Qianlong. At that time, Jiang Yuanjun, the magistrate of Taiwan, hosted a friendly match in Banyuechi, Hokkeji, Tainan City. Now Taiwan holds dragon boat races on May 5th every year.

How about this? This is the knowledge I collected about Dragon Boat Festival. Now we have a certain understanding of Dragon Boat Festival. Should we feel sorry for Qu Yuan, the great patriotic poet? I think Qu Yuan would have brought us many immortal poems if it wasn't for King Chu's willfulness, but Qu Yuan's jump washed people's hearts, leaving behind not only tragic poems but also the spirit of self-improvement! I believe that great patriotic poets will always stay in people's hearts
