英語作文元宵節的習俗
The 15th day of the 1st lunar month is the Chinese Lantern Festival because the first lunar month is called yuan-month and in the ancient times people called night Xiao. The 15th day is the first night to see a full moon. So the day is also called Yuan Xiao Festival in China.

According to the Chinese tradition, at the very beginning of a new year, when there is a bright full moon hanging in the sky, there should be thousands of colorful lanterns hung out for people to appreciate. At this time, people will try to solve the puzzles on the lanterns and eat yuanxiao (glutinous rice ball) and get all their families united in the joyful atmosphere.

元宵節正月十五吃元宵的的習俗由來已久,元宵也叫“湯圓”、“圓子”。據說元宵象征合家團圓,吃元宵意味新的一年合家幸福、萬事如意。
元宵節鬧花燈的習俗起源于道教的“三元說”;正月十五日為上元節,七月十五日為中元節,十月十五日為下元節。主管上、中、下三元的分別為天、地、人三官,天官喜樂,故上元節要燃燈。元宵節的節期與節俗活動,是隨歷史的發展而延長、擴展的。就節期長短而言,漢代才一天,到唐代已為三天,宋代則長達五天,明代更是自初八點燈,一直到正月十七的夜里才落燈,整整十天。與春節相接,白晝為市,熱鬧非凡,夜間燃燈,蔚為壯觀。特別是那精巧、多彩的燈火,更使其成為春節期間娛樂活動的高潮。至清代,又增加了舞龍、舞獅、跑旱船、踩高蹺、扭秧歌等“百戲”內容,只是節期縮短為四到五天。
