在欢歌笑语中，在这喜气洋洋的日子里，我期盼已久的端午节终于来临了。
在端午节这天，人们都包粽子吃，听说这其中还有一个故事呢。在两千多年前的战国时期，楚国有一位爱国大诗人屈原，当时他因国破家亡，非常悲愤，于是投到了汨罗江里，人们知道后，怕屈原的尸体被鱼虾吃掉，于是便包粽子扔进江里，这样鱼虾们就只吃美味可口的粽子，不吃屈原的尸体了，正好那天是农历的五月初五，后人为了纪念屈原，于是就把这天定为端午节。
说到这个粽子，你知道粽子是怎么包的吗？让我来告诉你吧，先把摘回来的粽叶洗涮干净，接着左手托粽叶，右手舀起糯米放进粽叶里包起来，用绳子捆紧，最后把粽子放在锅里煮上几个小时，熟透了就可以吃了。这天家家户户都在煮粽子，所以，粽子的香味是十里飘香，你只要尝一口，保证百吃不厌，光看到粽叶你就可知道粽子到底有多香了。
一顿丰盛的午餐过后，人们就在河边，草地上悠闲地散步，看看风景，吸收天地的灵气，日月的精华。到了下午，人们该是洗澡的时候了，这时候人们早已烧好一锅水，准备了艾叶，鱼腥草等，全家人都要洗，说是能辟邪。其实是杀菌除湿气，洗了以后全身就不痒了。
朋友们，欢迎你们到我的家乡当铺来过端午节，你们一定会一饱眼福和口福的。

端午节，中国的传统节日。
端午节“端”字有“初始”的意思，因此“端五”就是“初五”。而按照农历五月正是“午”月，因此“端五”也就渐渐演变成了“端午”。听了我的介绍，大家是不是对端午节这个字的由来有了一定的了解呀!
再讲讲端午节的由来。相传古代爱国诗人屈原在这天投江自杀，后人为了纪念他，把这天当作节日，有吃粽子，划龙舟等风俗。
赛龙舟的场面十分壮观;彩绘的龙舟，整齐的着装，如潮的人群，那热烈的场面实在悠然神往赛龙舟的比赛在人们的翘首以待中开始了。鼓声响起，龙舟便如一只离弦的箭，在平静无波的河水中飞来飞去……
吃粽子的情景更是让人历历在目，那一个个小巧玲珑，精致无比的粽子吸走了我的目光，看得我口水都快流下来了。剥下了绿色的皮，便露出了洁白的身子。晶莹剔透的糯米，酥酥的肉，在墨绿色皮的衬托下显得格外耀眼……
端午节，美好的节日，更是我们中华人们的节日。

第七篇
五月初五，泪罗江边，你——屈原，内心充满矛盾，充满无奈，你是多么希望能够报效国家，为国捐躯，可是天妒英才，不识人才得大王不给你机会，他昏庸无能，把大好江山毁于一旦，你被眼睁睁地看着国土被一次次侵蚀，直到再无楚国存在。大江彭湃，汹涌着向东流去，你的心随着这江水那样起伏不定，江水流逝了多少沧桑，楚国已不复存在，而你更感到前路茫茫。
“长太息以掩涕兮，哀民生之多艰！”你轻轻地哀叹，眼角间流下难以掩饰的泪水，一滴滴那么晶莹，发出多么柔弱的泪光，苍白的脸色中，勾住过往，遥望蓝天长长地哀叹一声，无奈的吟唱起一句句诗歌，歌声响彻天地，似乎想激起高高在上的人的“仁义”。悲哀的声音中，表达了你对国家、对人民的热爱之情；表达了你怀才不遇的无奈心情；表达了你对人民处于水深火热中的哀怜之情！但不管你如何大声，可“伯乐”却不知在何处，你的一腔热血只能演变成满腹悲愤。你无奈，发出千叹万哀都言不了你那悲痛的心情！
泪罗江边，大风狂吹，江水更加汹涌，愤怒地拍打着江岸，一男子轻轻一跃，就此殉身。你，就是这一跃。从此，大地上就少了一个伟大的爱国诗人；从此，中国传统节日中就多了一个。你可知，就在你殉身之后，有多少人为你而泪流满面，直至今日，仍有多少人为你感概不已。你那可歌可泣的爱国情怀让我们赞叹不已，身为炎黄子孙的我们一定会继承和发扬你的爱国精神。从你殉身的那一日，“赛龙舟”便出现了，和“吃粽子”一起成为端午节的特色，和你一起成为中国的传说。为了什么呢？为了纪念你——一位伟大的爱国诗人，和缅怀你的爱国精神！
一本《离骚》，使中华文化增添了新的活力；一个端午节，使中华民族拥有传奇的一面；一种爱国情怀，更使中华人民的情操更高尚！而这一切，都是源自你——屈原。或许在你投江之前，你为自己无法救黎民于水深火热之中，而感到遗憾，但是我想你现在知道你为中华民族的人民做了那么多事，一定会感到很欣慰。我为你而骄傲，又为你而悲哀。骄傲的是我们有这样一位伟大的爱国诗人而自豪；悲哀的是时代的背景让你的才华无法施展，正所谓“千里马”常有，而“伯乐”却不常有，你是何其不幸地遇到这样的“主”啊！
今天，我们仍然过着这端午节，为的是纪念一位伟大的爱国诗人——屈原！

第十篇
今天是我国的传统节日端午节。
因为放假，所以我起的比平时稍晚一点。当我睁开眼睛的时候，却发现我的手上脚上都被带上了五彩线。五彩线是由红、粉、黄、绿、蓝五种颜色组成的，很鲜艳。妈妈告诉我说，端午节带上五彩线会给自己带来好运的。
洗完脸后，我就来到了餐桌前。满满的一桌，真丰富啊;有大大的三角形粽子，还有香喷的鸡蛋、鸭蛋、鹅蛋。看着这么多好吃的，我的口水禁不住流了出来。
正准备开动时，爸爸发言了：“知道今天为什么要吃粽子吗?哪位“同学”知道请举手回答?”
这可难倒了我了，我就装作没听见，等待爸爸解释。爸爸告诉我说是为了纪念我国古代一位伟大的诗人屈原，真没想到一种食物也有故事。
爸爸讲完后，我已经迫不急待地想和他们做游戏了——顶鸡蛋。
我在盘里随手拿了一个个头较大的鸡蛋，先和爸爸来了一个对决。而我的力气太小了，一个回合下来，就输给了爸爸。但是心里却不服输。心想：“可不能这么算了。”我又去洗鹅蛋，想和妈妈较量一番。
只见妈妈在盘子中左挑右选的，好像里面藏了大将军。我好奇地问妈妈：“你在选什么?难道鹅蛋还会有什么不同吗?”听完后妈妈耐心地说：“你看这鹅蛋好像都一样，其实里面的学问大着呢!首先你要看蛋的形状，要选“小头”尖一点的，这样的蛋会比较有优势一些;其次要看鹅蛋的外壳，光滑、细腻、颜色匀，这样的蛋壳更硬一些。根据这些特点选，一定能获胜。”
我半信半疑地选了一个鹅蛋，就开始跟妈妈较量起来了。
我双手紧紧地握着鹅蛋，使上了浑身的力气，顶啊，顶啊，只听见叭的一声，我赶紧收手，紧张地看了一下手中的蛋，我手里的鹅蛋竟然没破，还是好好的，“原来是妈妈手里的蛋碎啦，太好了，我赢了!我赢了!”我兴奋地边喊边跳，爸爸也高兴的拍手表示祝贺，妈妈看着我高兴的样子也笑了。
真是一个难忘的端午节啊!
