圣诞节快乐

Maya (Year 9) compares Chinese New Year and Christmas 

Every January/February is Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. The Chinese attach great importance to the family and want the family to get together to welcome the new year. There are many customs during the Spring Festival: for example, the elderly in your family will give you lucky money in red envelopes, you and your family will have New Year’s Eve dinner together, set off fireworks, set off firecrackers, make and eat dumplings. Chinese New Year is fun! During Chinese New Year, you can say Happy New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai to each other. 

Every December 25th is Christmas. Christmas is a very important festival in the world. During this time, the family reunite and celebrate happiness. Christmas customs include gift giving, turkey dinner, Christmas cookies, mince pies and more. Christmas is cool. At Christmas you can say Merry Christmas to each other. 

The similarity between Chinese New Year and Christmas is that you can eat a lot of delicious food, they are both very important festivals and they are celebrated with family. I think Spring Festival and Christmas are both good festivals. The difference is that Christmas always falls on the same day, and Chinese New Year falls on a different day every year. On this day of the Spring Festival, you will set off firecrackers and fireworks. I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai (wish you good fortune）! 

 在这篇文章中，我将比较农历新年和圣诞节。 

 每年的一/二月是中国新年,也叫春节。春节是中国人最重要的节日。中国人很重视家庭，要一家人团聚在一起，迎接新的一年。春节有很多的习俗：比如你家里的老人会用红包包压岁钱送给你，你们跟你的家人一起吃年夜饭，一起放烟花，放爆竹、包饺子和吃饺子等等。中国新年很好玩！在春节，你可以对彼此说新年快乐和恭喜发财。 

每年的十二月二十五日是圣诞节。 圣诞节是世界上一个非常重要的节日。这段时间一家人团聚庆祝幸福。 圣诞节的习俗包括送礼物、火鸡大餐、圣诞饼干、肉馅饼等等。 圣诞节很酷。在圣诞节你可以对彼此说圣诞节快乐。 

中国新年和圣诞节的相似之处是你可以吃很多好吃的食物，它们都是很重要的节日、都跟家人一起庆祝等等。我觉得春节和圣诞节都是很好的节日。不同的是，圣诞节总是在同一天，农历新年每一年的日子都不一样。在春节的这一天，你会放鞭炮和烟花等。我希望你圣诞节快乐和新年快乐，恭喜发财！
