Translation,（一）古人将正月十五称为“上元”，是夜称“元宵”。元宵节起源于远古时代人们以火把驱邪的形式。元宵节的风俗特征是通宵张灯结彩，供人观赏取乐，故又称“灯节”。各处有灯会，比赛花灯，举行灯谜盛会，小孩也提着灯笼四处游观玩耍。这种欢乐的场景，一直要持续到十八日“落灯”为止。此外，元宵节还时兴跑旱船、舞龙灯、耍狮子等群众性娱乐活动。舞龙灯、耍狮子带有祭田祖、祈甘雨的含义，舞龙则出于生育和祛病强身的期盼。 难点注释： 正月: the first lunar month;驱邪:ward off evil spirits 落灯: Taking Down Lanterns;跑旱船: land-boat dance,古人将正月十五称为“上元”，是夜称“元宵”。 Ancient people called the 15th day of the first lunar month “Shangyuan”, the night in question “Yuanxiao”.,元宵节起源于远古时代人们以火把驱邪的形式。 The festival developed from an ancient ceremony of using torches to ward off evil spirits.,元宵节的风俗特征是通宵张灯结彩，供人观赏取乐，故又称“灯节”。 On the Lantern Festival, people decorate houses and streets with various lanterns and red streamers for watch and amusement, hence it derives the name “Lantern Festival”.,各处有灯会，比赛花灯，举行灯谜盛会，小孩也提着灯笼四处游观玩耍。 Everywhere are lantern displays and lantern-riddle guessing.
