zhong qiu jie, which is also known as the mid-autumn festival, is celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar. it is a time for family members and loved ones to congregate and enjoy the full moon - an auspicious symbol of abundance, harmony and luck. adults will usually indulge in fragrant mooncakes of many varieties with a good cup of piping hot chinese tea, while the little ones run around with their brightly-lit lanterns.

农历八月十五日是中国的传统节日——中秋节。在这天，每个家庭都团聚在一起，一家人共同观赏象征丰裕、和谐和幸运的圆月。此时，大人们吃着美味的月饼，品着热腾腾的香茗，而孩子们则在一旁拉着兔子灯尽情玩耍。

zhong qiu jie probably began as a harvest festival. the festival was later given a mythological flavour with legends of chang-e, the beautiful lady in the moon.

中秋节最早可能是一个庆祝丰收的节日。后来，月宫里美丽的仙女嫦娥的神话故事赋予了它神话色彩。

according to chinese mythology, the earth once had 10 suns circling over it. one day, all 10 suns appeared together,

scorching the earth with their heat. the earth was saved when a strong archer,

hou yi, succeeded in shooting down 9 of the suns. yi stole the elixir of life to save the people from his tyrannical rule, but his wife, chang-e drank it. thus started the legend of the lady in the moon to whom young chinese girls would pray at the mid-autumn festival.

传说古时候，天空曾有10个太阳。一天，这10个太阳同时出现，酷热难挡。弓箭手后翌射下了其中9个太阳，拯救了地球上的生灵。他偷了长生不死药，却被妻子嫦娥偷偷喝下。此后，每年中秋月圆之时，少女们都要向月宫仙女嫦娥祈福的传说便流传开来。

in the 14th century, the eating of mooncakes at zhong qiu jie was given a new significance. the story goes that when zhu yuan zhang was plotting to overthrow the yuan dynasty started by the mongolians, the rebels hid their messages in the mid-

autumn mooncakes. zhong qiu jie is hence also a

commemoration of the overthrow of the mongolians by the han people.

在14世纪，中秋节吃月饼又被赋予了一层特殊的含义。传说在朱元璋带兵起义推翻元朝时，将士们曾把联络信藏在月饼里。因此，中秋节后来也成为汉人推翻蒙古人统治的纪念日。 字串7

明月几时有？把酒问青天。 不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年？

我欲乘风归去，又恐琼楼玉宇，

高处不胜寒！起舞弄清影，何似在人间？ 转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。 不应有恨，何事长向别时圆？

人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺，此事古难全。 但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。

when will the moon be clear and bright?

with a cup of wine in my hand, i ask the blue sky.

i dont know what season it would be in the heavens on this night.

id like to ride the wind to fly home.

yet i fear the crystal and jade mansions are much too high and cold for me.

dancing with my moon-lit shadow,

it does not seem like the human world.

the moon rounds the red mansion stoops to silk-pad doors, shines upon the sleepless bearing no grudge,

why does the moon tend to be full when people are apart? people may have sorrow or joy, be near or far apart, the moon may be dim or bright, wax or wane,

this has been going on since the beginning of time.

may we all be blessed with longevity though far apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together. --read by yun feng 水调歌头

明月几时有，把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年。

我欲乘风归去, 又恐琼楼玉宇，高处不胜寒，起舞弄清影，何似在人间。

转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。不应有恨，何事长向别时圆。

人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺，此事古难全。但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。 --苏轼

2016中秋节英文介绍(带翻译)

mooncakes are to mid-autumn festival what mince pies are to christmas. the seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. and the moon is what this celebration is all about. mid-autumn festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month, it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest. this year the festival falls on october 1.

there are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating mooncakes. one tang dynasty myth holds that the earth once had 10 suns circling it. one day all 10 suns appeared at once, scorching the planet with their heat. it was thanks to a skillful archer named hou yi that the earth was saved. he shot down all but one of the suns. as his reward, the heavenly queen mother gave hou yi the elixir of immortality, but she warned him that he must use it wisely. hou yi ignored her advice and, corrupted by fame and fortune, became a

tyrannical leader. chang-er, his beautiful wife, could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. and thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon, the moon fairy.

the second legend has it that during the yuan dynasty, an underground group led by zhu yuan zang was determined to rid the country of mongolian dominance. the moon cake was created to carry a secret message. when the cake was opened and the message read, an uprising was unleashed which

successfully routed the mongolians. it happened at the time of the full moon, which, some say, explains why mooncakes are eaten at this time.

mooncakes are usually stamped with chinese characters indicating the name of the bakery and the type of filling used. some bakeries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalised ones to friends and family. they are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. traditional mooncakes are made with melted lard, but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health.

mooncakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. the best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of chinese tea, especially jasmine or chrysanthemum tea, which aids the digestion. 中秋节吃月

饼就像西方人圣诞节吃百果馅饼一样,是必不可少的.圆圆的月饼中通常包有香甜的莲子馅或是红豆馅,馅的中央还会加上一个金黄的咸鸭蛋黄来代表月亮.而月亮正是中秋节庆祝的主题.每年农历8月15日人们一起庆祝中秋,据说这一天的月亮是一年中最亮最圆的.今年的中秋节恰好是阳历的10月1日(中国的国庆日).

关于吃月饼这个传统的来历有两个传说.一个是唐朝的神话故事,说的是当时地球被10个太阳包围着.有一天10个太阳同时出现在天空中,巨大的热量几乎把地球烤焦了.多亏一位名叫后羿的神箭手射下了9个太阳,地球才被保住.为了奖励后羿,王母娘娘赐给后羿一种长生不老药,但是王母警告他必须正当使用.然而后羿没有理会王母娘娘的警告, 他被名利冲昏了头脑,变成了一个暴君.后羿美丽的妻子嫦娥对他的暴行再也不能袖手旁观,于是她偷走了后羿的长生不老药,飞到月亮上逃避后羿的狂怒.从此就有了关于月宫仙子嫦娥,这个月亮上的美丽女人的传说.

第二个传说讲的是在元朝,朱元璋领导的起义军计划起义来摆脱蒙古族的统治.他们用月饼来传递密信.掰开月饼就可以找到里面的密信,起义军通过这种方式成功的发动了起义,赶走了元朝的统治者.这场起义发生在八月十五之时,于是中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间传开来.
