清明节是一个纪念祖先的节日。主要的纪念仪式是扫墓，扫墓是慎终追远、郭亲睦行孝的具体表现；基于上述意义，清明节因此成为华人的重要节日。 清明节是在仲春和之交，也就是冬至后的106天。扫墓活动通常是在清明节的前十天或后十天。有些地域士的扫墓活动长达一个月。

origin（起源）

qing ming is popularly associated with jie zi zhui, who lived in shanxi provin 600 b.c. legend has it that jie saved his starving lords life by serving a pif his own leg. when the lord succeeded in becoming the ruler of a small princiy, he invited his faithful follower to join him. however, jie declined his invitationerring to lead a hermits life with his mother in the mountains.

谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都会联想到历史人物介子椎。据历史记载，在两年以前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介子椎不惜从自己的割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，作了国君（即晋文公，春秋五霸之一），封赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随从，惟独介子椎拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。

晋文公无计可施，只好放火烧山，他想，介子椎孝顺母亲，一定会带着老母出来。这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。为了纪念介子椎，晋文公下令每年的这一天，禁止生家家户户只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。

寒食节是在清明节的前一天，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而久之，清明了寒食节。拜介子椎的习俗也变成了清明扫墓的习俗了。无论以何种形式纪念，为了使祖先的仪式更有意义，我们应该让年轻一代的家庭成员了解先人过去的奋斗历史，当然要学习介子椎宁死不屈的气节。

2、清明节风俗

1） 扫墓

清明时节祭扫祖坟（俗称上坟）。无锡的传统民俗较有代表性。扫墓时要挑些新坟茔，而且凡新坟一定要在清明前祭扫，旧坟可以过清明．但不能过立夏。新媳妇一定祭扫祖坟，俗称上花坟。扫墓时用荤、素菜肴和酒、饭等祭奠。后用干果糕点等替代至今日，在烈士陵园缅怀革命先烈成为清明节里很重要的内容，在祭炎黄二祖、悼念自先祖的同时，缅怀先烈的丰功伟绩，使今天的清明活动具有了更重要的教育意义。

2） 踏青

清明时节，气候温暖和煦，大地皆春，处处鲜花嫩草，一片生机盎然，人们纷纷外青。在无锡，踏青的最好场所莫过于惠山。不上惠山的，上城墙绕城而走，叫登高踏青门东林庵一带，为士女聚集处，故有东林庵里看桃花的说法。这天，也是东乡胶山和北山的节场，附近还有赛会，故斗山别名清明山。人们都上山踏青，赶节场，观看赛会。宵节至清明节，大人孩子，三五成群，到野外放凤筝，别有情趣。

3） 门旁插柳和戴柳枝帽

清明节那天，有家家门口插柳条的风俗。在一些地区，还流行小孩带柳枝帽的风门旁插柳和戴柳枝帽习俗的来源也是根据介子椎的传说。据说，介子椎是死在柳树下面介子椎死后的第二年晋文公率领群臣到绵山致祭，一行人先在山下寒食一日，第二天才那棵柳树，已经长出了翠绿的嫩条。晋文公看了，心中忽有所感，便走上前去，掐了一编成一个圈儿带在头上。随从的臣下看了,也纷纷仿效他折柳插头。晋文公便把这棵柳树为清明柳，把这一天定为清明节。

3、清明与节气

清明节即是节气又是节日。从节气上来说，它是24节气之一。

我国2000多年前的秦汉时期已基本形成了24节气。24节气综合了天文学和气象学等方知识，编排了春雨惊春清谷天，夏满芒夏暑相连。秋处露秋寒霜降，冬雪雪冬小大寒的其中清明被排在歌谣的第五位。也是农历历法中的第五个节气。

此时，天气转暖，大地回春，万物复苏，一片生机盎然，家家门口插柳条，祭扫坟郊外踏青。农谚中也有清明忙种粟的说法。作为以花信为标志的花信风。清明的花期为桐花，二侯麦花，三侯柳花，充分点明了清明节气的花期和花种。《岁时百问》说万物此时，皆清洁而明净，故谓之清明。

健康饮食

in current society, people have known the importance of keeping healthy and good life habit. in the past, people ate three meals at home, and they ate more vegetables and less meat and fish. they were very strong and seldom went to see doctors.

now life is better, people eat more meat, fish, eggs and other food with more fat. they often go out for good meals with their families and friends. but they get easy to be ill, why?

i think more meat and fish, less exercise are bad for health. good rest, less meat and fish, more vegetables and enough exercise are good for health. so i exercise every day. my eating habits are pretty good. i eat a lot of vegetables. i eat fruit and drink milk every day. i drink a cup of water 15 minutes before each meal and eat much vegetables and fruit. of course, i love , too, and i eat it once a week. and i sleep nine hours every day.

the better we get into good eating habits, the happier our life becomes

吃早餐

recently we did a research on the effects that a good breakfast made on students. the study showed that students with a good breakfast every morning, which contained eggs, bread, milk and so on, were healthier than those without breakfast. they grew faster and were less likely to put on weight and get ill. by eating breakfast every morning, the students could feel alive and quick in the morning’s work at school. they were full of energy and could focus their attention easily for a long time. their scores in the tests were much higher than those of the students who went to school without breakfast. compared with the students with a good breakfast every day, the students without breakfast were less active and got tired more easily in sports. they couldn’t run as fast as those with breakfast. from the research we can see that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. it not only affects our health but also our study and work, even our feelings. let’s prepare ourselves a good breakfast every day to keep us healthy both mentally and physically.

饮食健康 he best thing you can do to keep yourself healthy is to eat a healthy diet all the time, not just when you want to lose weight. eating healthy is a long-term lifestyle choice, something you are going to do for your entire lifetime.

a healthy diet is one that helps maintain or improve general health. it is important for lowering many chronic health risks, such as heart disease and cancer.nutrients can be obtained from many different foods, so there are numerous diets that may be considered healthy. a healthy diet needs to have a balance of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, calories to support energy need.

体育健康类 sports do us good in many respects (ts). it goes without saying that taking exercises can build up our physical strength. in collective sports like basketball, volleyball, or football, we will learn the importance of cooperation. while taking part in sports game, we will try our best to win and arouse ourselves the competitive spirit. sports can also help us relax after a period of exhausting work. however, as the saying goes, there are two sides to

everything, and sports is without exception. we may hurt other players or ourselves if we are not careful enough when participating in sports activities. whats more, excessive or severe training can do harm to our health.

my participation in sports tells me that sports can make us healthy both physically and psychologically. it is also a good way for people to know each other and can promote friendship between people. so long as we are carefully enough, sports can do us nothing but good.
