介绍:
There are a number of traditions celebrated during Chinese New Year:
1. Dragon Dance or Lion Dance - These dances are often a part of parades and festivities during the holiday. In a dragon dance a large team of people (up to 50) carry portions of the dragon on poles and move the poles in a manner that depicts the movement of the dragon. In a lion dance two people dress in an elaborate lion costume and move and dance to mimic a lion.
2. Red Envelopes - Red envelopes filled with money are often handed out as presents to young children or newly married couples. An even amount of money is given for good luck.
3. Firecrackers - A traditional part of the celebration is to light a lot firecrackers. The Ancient Chinese believed that the loud noise would scare off evil spirits. In some places, like Hong Kong, lighting real firecrackers has been banned. As a result, many people decorate their homes with colorful plastic firecrackers.
4. The color red - The color red is the main color for clothes and decorations. It symbolizes joy and happiness.
中国在春节期间有很多传统：
1. 舞龙或舞狮。这些舞蹈表演经常是节日游行和庆祝活动的一部分。在舞龙的时候，最多有50人用杆子举着龙的各个部位，然后挥动杆子来描绘出龙运动时的样子。在舞狮时，两个人穿着精心制作的狮子戏服，移动并跳跃以模仿真正的狮子。
2. 红包。装有钱的红包通常作为礼物发给小孩子和新婚夫妇。为了好运，通常要给双数的金额。
3. 鞭炮。点燃烟花爆竹是庆祝新年的传统。中国古人相信这种吵闹的声音可以吓跑妖魔鬼怪。在有些地方，比如香港，燃放真的烟花爆竹已经被禁止了。因此，很多人会用彩色的塑料鞭炮装饰自己的家。
4. 中国红。红色是春节穿衣服和装饰的主要颜色，它象征着快乐和幸福。
