Dragon Boat Festival, the main customs are eating zongzi and racing dragon boats. It’s almost the Dragon Boat Festival again. My mother said, “l(fā)et’s make zongzi together!” I didn’t know how to pack it, so I looked at my mother in confusion. My mother brought Zongye, glutinous rice, jujube and rope. She first overlapped two or three Zong leaves together, and then rolled them into the shape of an ice cream cone, like a small funnel. Mother grabbed a handful of glutinous rice with her hand and spread it on the Zongye. Then she picked up a few red dates and put them on it. Then she covered it with glutinous rice and stuffed it tightly. Finally, she folded the excess Zongye and covered it. Mother grabbed the dumplings with her left hand and bit one end of the rope with her teeth. With her right hand, she tied the dumplings in circles, just like the little monster that monkey king was tying up. The dumplings are wrapped and cooked. I can’t wait to take one and smell it. It smells delicious. Its green leaves turned brown and yellow. I immediately took one to open the leaves and took a bite. The slight sweetness and the fragrance of the leaves made me unable to stop. The ancients used zongzi to feed small fish and didn’t let them eat Qu Yuan’s body. Now, we eat zongzi and think about Qu Yuan’s life. We hope this festival and custom can be passed on forever. I like the Dragon Boat Festival, because it can not only make zongzi with my grandmother, but also watch the dragon boat race. There are many kinds of zongzi in Liuzhou: Pillow zongzi, triangle zongzi, cool zongzi, etc... zongzi are made of green Ruo leaves wrapped with snowwhite glutinous rice, but the filling of each kind of zongzi is different. Some zongzi are wrapped with chestnut, meat and glutinous rice。 And some zongzi are full of beans. As soon as you peel off the leaves, you can see the colorful beans embedded in the snowwhite glutinous rice, which is beautiful。 In addition, there is nothing in zongzi except glutinous rice this is cool zongzi. Every year, dragon boat races are held in Liujiang River during the Dragon Boat Festival. At this time, the Liujiang River is full of people, very lively. There are all kinds of dragon boats on the river. Generally, a ship has 11 crew members, one of whom is beating drums or waving team flags at the “dragon head” to cheer for the crew behind, and the other 10 people are holding the oars and rowing hard and rushing to the finish line. The scene was very intense, which made people nervous and excited. I like the Dragon Boat Festival because it is really a happy festival. 快樂的端午節(jié)英語日記【10篇】
