在全球华人心中,“年”是一个温馨的概念。新年的到来,意味着家人团聚和新生活的开始。从古至今,年总是被赋予各种各样的含义,满载着人们的期冀和祝福。在中国,依据自古传承下的历法,“春节”被汉族人视为庆祝新年的最盛大的年节。在汉族人的传说中,“年”是一种蛰居深海的怪兽,它并不受人待见,因为它被认为会带来坏运气。为了赶走这一怪兽,人们渐渐学会用放鞭炮和在门上贴红纸等手段来吓跑它。久而久之,这些驱赶怪兽的方法就成了人们过年的习俗。 In the hearts of the Chinese in the world, “year ” is a warm concept. The arrival of the New Year means the reunification of families and the beginning of a new life. Since ancient times, the year has always been given a variety of meanings, full of people’s expectations and blessings. In China, based on the calendar passed down since ancient times, the “Spring Festival” is regarded by the Han as the greatest year of the New Year. In the Han legend, “year ” is a deep-sea monster standing, it is not to be seen because it is believed to bring bad luck. In order to get rid of this monster, people gradually learned to scare it off with firecrackers and red paper on the door. As time passes, these methods of driving monsters have become the customs of the Chinese New Year.
