春节到了英语作文

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival， also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West. the dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the GREgorian calendar， so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.

To the ordinary Chinese， the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year‘s Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month， which normally is called the Lantern Festival， means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.

在中国最重要的节日是春节，也被称为中国的新年。对中国人来说，对西方国家的人来说，圣诞节同样重要。每年庆祝的日期是由农历而不是公历决定的，因此节日的时间从1月底到2月初不等。

对普通中国人来说，这个节日实际上是从农历新年的.前夕开始，到农历的第一个月的第五天结束。但是第一个月的15号，通常被称为元宵节，在全国许多地方意味着春节的正式结束。
