屈原和端午節(jié)

Qu Yuan was born about two thousand ago in China. He loved his country very much. His job was to give advice to the king. The king always took his advice. However, the king died and the new king did not listen to him.

屈原出生于大約2000年前的中國。他熱愛他的祖國。他所做的就是進(jìn)諫皇帝?;实垡渤32杉{他的建議。然后,老皇帝逝世后,新皇帝并不常聽他的。

Later, the new king lost a battle because he did not take Qu Yuan's advice. The country was in danger. Qu Yuan was very sad. He jumped into a river and died. It was the fifth day of the fifth lunar month of that year.

后來,由于新皇沒有采納屈原的建議導(dǎo)致一場戰(zhàn)爭的失敗,國家處于危亡的境界。屈原很沮喪。他跳河而死。那一天,是陰歷五月的第五天。

現(xiàn)如今,人們每年都會在那一天通過吃粽子以及舉行龍舟比賽來紀(jì)念他。
