篇一：端午节高中英语作文
端午节来源于屈原的故事：爱国诗人屈原出了一个能够富国强民的好主意，但是没有被国王采纳，他反而被逐出宫中。屈原气得不得了，跳进了汨罗江。当地的渔夫得知后划着小船把竹筒里的米撒向汨罗江给屈原。后来，大家把竹筒盛米改为粽子，把划小船改为赛龙舟来纪念屈原。我们全家都非常敬佩屈原，因此，我们家每年都过端午节。
端午节的传统习俗就是吃粽子。我们家有一个名副其实的包粽子好手——我的妈妈。每年端午节的时候，我们全家都能吃到可口的粽子。妈妈常说：用芦苇的叶子包的粽子最香。所以，每年端午节妈妈都用芦苇的叶子来包粽子。她在包粽子之前，先做好准备工作：把芦苇的叶子放在水里煮一煮，把准备好的糯米和枣分别洗一洗。等芦苇的叶子凉了以后，她就开始包粽子了。她先取三片叶子，将这三片叶子卷成一个圆锥体，然后先放一个枣，接着在里面放上糯米，中间再夹几个枣，最后用线把叶子捆好，一个粽子就包好了。她包的粽子又肥又大，活像一个个老佛爷在睡觉。等粽子包完后，妈妈把它们放在高压锅里蒸四十分钟，再放三四个小时，使其入味，然后就可以吃了！妈妈包的粽子十分香，香得使我一见到粽子就会大口大口地吃起来。所以，每当吃粽子时，我总是吃得很多！
过端午节除了要吃粽子，还要赛龙舟哟！
我最喜欢看赛龙舟了，几十个水手都拿着桨，奋力地划着，擂鼓的水手士气高昂，用力地敲着。“加油，加油！”场外的拉拉队激情洋溢，发出雷鸣般的呐喊声、助威声，水手们听了不得不更加使劲划船。整个赛龙舟的场面非常壮观、热烈。
吃粽子、赛龙舟，这两样传统习俗共同编织了一个热热闹闹的端午节。
