我喜歡過年，聽說過年有一個傳說。我就上網查了查。

　　I like Chinese New Year. I heard there is a legend about it. I checked it online.

　　在很久很久以前，有一個怪獸叫年的怪獸，它住在深海里頭長尖角，每到除夕，爬上岸來吞食牲畜傷害人命，因此每到除夕，村村寨寨的人們扶老攜幼，逃往深山，以躲避＂年＂的傷害。

　　A long time ago, there was a monster named Nian. It lived in the deep sea with long sharp horns. Every new year;s Eve, it climbed up to the shore to devour livestock and hurt people;s lives. Therefore, every new year;s Eve, people in villages and villages helped the old and the young to flee to the mountains to avoid the injury of Nian.

　　今年的除夕，鄉親們都忙著收拾東西逃往深山。

　　This year;s new year;s Eve, the villagers are busy packing things to escape to the mountains.

　　這時候村東頭來了一個白發老人對一戶老婆婆說只要讓他在她家住一晚，他定能將＂年＂獸驅走。

　　At this time, an old man with white hair came to the east of the village and said to an old woman that if he could stay in her house for one night, he would be able to drive the "Nian" beast away.

　　眾人不信，老婆婆勸其還是上山躲避的好，老人堅持留下，眾人見勸他不住，便紛紛上山躲避去了。

　　They didn;t believe it. The old woman advised him to go up the mountain to escape. The old man insisted on staying. When they saw that they couldn;t persuade him, they went up the mountain to escape.

　　當＂年＂獸象往年一樣準備闖進村肆虐的時候，突然傳來白發老人然響的爆竹聲，＂年＂獸混身顫栗，再也不敢向前湊了。

　　When the "new year" beast was ready to rush into the village as usual, suddenly came the sound of firecrackers from the old man with white hair. The "new year" beast shuddered and dared not move forward.

　　原來＂年＂獸最怕紅色，火光和炸響。

　　It turns out that "Nian" animals are most afraid of red, fire and explosion.

　　這時大門大開，只見院內一位身披紅袍的老人哈哈大笑，＂年＂獸大驚失色，倉惶而逃。

　　At this time, the gate opened wide, only to see an old man wearing a red robe in the hospital laughing, "Nian" beast was shocked and ran away.

　　第二天，當人們從深山會到村里時，發現村里安然無恙。

　　The next day, when people came to the village from the deep mountain, they found the village safe and sound.

　　這才恍然大悟，原來白發老人是幫助大家驅逐＂年＂獸的神仙。

　　It suddenly dawned on us that the old man with white hair was the immortal who helped us expel the "Nian" beast.

　　人們同時還發現了白發老人驅逐＂年＂獸的三件法寶。

　　At the same time, people also found three magic weapons for the old man with white hair to expel the "Nian" beast.

　　從此，每年的除夕，家家都貼紅對聯，燃放爆竹，戶戶燈火通明，守更待歲。

　　Since then, every year on New Year;s Eve, every family has pasted red couplets, set off firecrackers, and every household has bright lights, waiting for the new year.

　　這風俗越傳越廣，成了中國民間最隆重的傳統節日＂過年＂。兇猛異常

　　This custom spread more and more widely, and became the most solemn traditional festival of Chinese folk "new year". Ferocious anomaly

　　我查完后已經晚上了，我去的睡覺去了。還沒醒來的時候爸爸就放鞭炮，我被爸爸吵醒了。爸爸說：“紅對聯，燃放爆竹，這些都是過年做的事情。”媽媽說：“難道你不知道過年的來歷嗎？”我說：“知道。”媽媽說：“你說過年都要干什么。”我說：“過年都要家家都貼紅對聯，燃放爆竹，戶戶燈火通明，守更待歲。”媽媽說：“兒子真棒?！蔽艺f：“這是我昨天查的。”

　　It;s evening after I finished checking. I went to bed. My father set off firecrackers before I woke up. I was woken up by my father. Dad said: "red couplets, firecrackers, these are things to do in the new year." Mother said, "don;t you know the origin of the new year?" I said, "yes." "Mom said:" you said that all the year to do "I said:" New Year;s day every family to paste red couplets, set off firecrackers, household lights, guard more waiting for the year The mother said, "the son is wonderful." I said, "this is what I checked yesterday."

　　我一定要把這個習俗傳下去。讓這個習俗家家戶戶都一定要過這個習俗。

　　I must carry on this custom. Every family must live through this custom.
