In Shanghang county, children have to get down on their knees when they worship the moon. In Long Yan, while eating moon cakes, parents will dig a small hole in the center of the cakes, which means that some secrets should be kept from children.
In Guangdong Province
In Chaoshan, women and children will worship the Moon. When the night comes, they will burn joss sticks in front of a table of fresh fruits as a sacrifice. At that night they will also eat taros. There are two reasons why people there eat this vegetable. One is that August is the best time to eat ripe taros, and the other comes from a story. In 1279 the Mongols defeated the Southern Song Dynasty and formed the Yuan Dynasty, and they carried out their cruel domination over the Han Chinese. At that time, a well-known general called Ma Fa held out in Chaozhou to fight with Mongols. When he failed, most citizens were killed. Because the Chinese word for taros and Mongols were similar, from then on people eat taros to prove that they will always remember the pain. To eat the taro means to eat the heads of the Mongols.
In the south of Yangtze River valley
In Nanjing people will not just eat moon cakes, they will also eat another famous dish called Guihua Dark. This dish could only be cooked during the Mid-Autumn Day, because it is cooked with osmanthus flowers, which blossoms in August.

"Zhong Qiu Jie", which is also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, is celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar. It is a time for family members and loved ones to congregate and enjoy the full moon - an auspicious symbol of abundance, harmony and luck. Adults will usually indulge in fragrant mooncakes of many varieties with a good cup of piping hot Chinese tea, while the little ones run around with their brightly-lit lanterns.
"Zhong Qiu Jie" probably began as a harvest festival. The festival was later given a mythological flavour with legends of Chang-E, the beautiful lady in the moon.
According to Chinese mythology, the earth once had 10 suns circling over it. One day, all 10 suns appeared together, scorching the earth with their heat. The earth was saved when a strong archer, Hou Yi, succeeded in shooting down 9 of the suns. Yi stole the elixir of life to save the people from his tyrannical rule, but his wife, Chang-E drank it. Thus started the legend of the lady in the moon to whom young Chinese girls would pray at the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In the 14th century, the eating of mooncakes at "Zhong Qiu Jie" was given a new significance. The story goes that when Zhu Yuan Zhang was plotting to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty started by the Mongolians, the rebels hid their messages in the Mid-Autumn mooncakes.

The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, usually in October in Gregorian calendar.
每年农历八月十五日，是传统的中秋佳节。这时是一年秋季的中期，所以被称为中秋。
The festival has a long history. In ancient China, emperors followed the rite of offering sacrifices to the sun in spring and to the moon in autumn. Historical books of the Zhou Dynasty had had the word "Mid-Autumn". Later aristocrats and literary figures helped expand the ceremony to common people.
They enjoyed the full, bright moon on that day, worshipped it and expressed their thoughts and feelings under it. By the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the Mid-Autumn Festival had been fixed, which became even grander in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). In the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, it grew to be a major festival of China.
中秋节有悠久的历史，和其它传统节日一样，也是慢慢发展形成的，古代帝王有春天祭日，秋天祭月的礼制，早在《周礼》一书中，已有“中秋”一词的记载。
后来贵族和文人学士也仿效起来，在中秋时节，对着天上又亮又圆一轮皓月，观赏祭拜，寄托情怀，这种*俗就这样传到民间，形成一个传统的活动，一直到了唐代，这种祭月的风俗更为人们重视，中秋节才成为固定的节日，《唐书·太宗记》记载有“八月十五中秋节”，这个节日盛行于宋朝，至明清时，已与元旦齐名，成为我国的主要节日之一。
Folklore about the origin of the festival go like this: In remote antiquity, there were ten suns rising in the sky, which scorched all crops and drove people into dire poverty. A hero named Hou Yi was much worried about this, he ascended to the top of the Kunlun Mountain and, directing his superhuman strength to full extent, drew his extraordinary bow and shot down the nine superfluous suns one after another.
He also ordered the last sun to rise and set according to time. For this reason, he was respected and loved by the people and lots of people of ideals and integrity came to him to learn martial arts from him. A person named Peng Meng lurked in them.
相传，远古时候天上有十日同时出现，晒得庄稼枯死，民不聊生，一个名叫后羿的英雄，力大无穷，他同情受苦的百姓，登上昆仑山顶，运足神力，拉开神弓，一气射下九个多太阳，并严令最后一个太阳按时起落，为民造福。后羿因此受到百姓的尊敬和爱戴，不少志士慕名前来投师学艺，心术不正的逄蒙也混了进来。

beautiful lady in the moon.
中秋节最早可能是一个庆祝丰收的节日。后来，月宫里美丽的仙女嫦娥的神话故事赋予了它神话色彩。
According to Chinese mythology, the earth once had 10 suns circling over it. One day, all 10 suns appeared together, scorching the earth with their heat. The earth was saved when a strong archer, Hou Yi, succeeded in shooting down 9 of the suns. Yi stole the elixir of life to save the people from his tyrannical rule, but his wife, Chang-E drank it.

The wood cutter - Wu Kang
伐木人——吴刚
Wu Kang was a shiftless fellow who changed apprenticeships all the time. One day he decided that he wanted to be an immortal, so he went to live in the mountains where he importuned an immortal to teach him. First the immortal taught him about the herbs used to cure sickness, but after three days his characteristic restlessness returned and Wu Kang asked the immortal to teach him something else. So the immortal taught him chess, but after a short while Wu Kangs enthusiasm again waned. Then Wu Kang was given the books of immortality to study. Of course, Wu Kang became bored within a few days, and asked if they could travel to some new and exciting place. Angered with Wu Kangs impatience, the master banished Wu Kang to the Moon Palace telling him that he must cut down a huge cassia tree before he could return to earth. Though Wu Kang chopped day and night, the magical tree restored itself with each blow, and thus he is up there chopping still.
吴刚是个懒惰而又不学无数的学徒。有一天他想学道成仙，于是他住到深山里强求以为仙人教他法术。起初，仙人教他治病的草药，但三天之后吴刚不安定的本性就暴露出来了。他又求仙人教他其他的东西，于是仙人教他下棋，但不久之后吴刚又失去了兴趣。于是仙人给了他研*仙术的书籍。当然没几天吴刚又觉得无聊了，并问仙人能否远行到一些新鲜有趣的地方。气恼于吴刚毫无耐心的本性，仙人罚他去月宫，并告诉他除非他能砍倒一棵巨大的桂树，否则他就不能回到人间。虽然吴刚日夜砍伐，但这棵神奇的树每次被砍倒创伤又会自己愈合，于是吴刚只有夜以继日地砍伐。
——中秋节的诗句古诗英文 (菁华3篇)
People miss their dear on festival occasions.
Thinking of You
When will the moon be clear and bright?
With a cup of wine in my hand, I ask the blue sky.
I don't know what season it would be in the heavens on this night.
I'd like to ride the wind to fly home.
Yet I fear the crystal and jade mansions are much too high and cold for me.
Dancing with my moon-lit shadow,
It does not seem like the human world.
The moon rounds the red mansion Stoops to silk-pad doors,
Shines upon the sleepless Bearing no grudge,
Why does the moon tend to be full when people are apart?
People may have sorrow or joy, be near or far apart,
The moon may be dim or bright, wax or wane,
This has been going on since the beginning of time.
May we all be blessed with longevity Though far apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together.
--Read by Yun Feng
译：水调歌头
明月几时有，把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年。
我欲乘风归去, 又恐琼楼玉宇，高处不胜寒，起舞弄清影，何似在人间。
转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。不应有恨，何事长向别时圆。
人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺，此事古难全。但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。

——介绍中秋节的优秀作文 (菁华3篇)
今天是中秋节，晚饭后，我和爸爸、妈妈高高兴兴地在家门前的空地上坐着，一边吃月饼，一边吃柿子，一边赏月。
天上月圆，地上人圆。只见月圆，不见人圆。
一轮金黄的圆月已经高高地挂在天空中，向地上洒下皎洁的月光，像轻纱似的一般温柔。天空中云很淡，风很轻，月光很美，这构成了一幅美丽的画。在深蓝色的夜空里，月亮显得更圆、更亮、更美了。这么美的月亮能不让人心动吗？
谈起月亮，我想起了李白的《古朗月行》：小时不识月，呼作白玉盘。又疑瑶台镜，飞在青云端。仙人垂两足，桂树何团圆。白兔捣药成，问言与谁餐？蟾蜍蚀圆影，大明夜已残。羿昔落九乌，天人清且安。阴 精此沦惑，去去不足观。忧来其如何，凄怆摧心肝。
这圆月非常调皮，月亮一会儿钻进云姐姐的怀里，一会儿和星星谈话，一会月亮到云层后面，蒙上一层细纱，显得更加娇气，真迷人；月亮时而又像个调皮的孩子，把脸露出来偷看我们过节呢！真好玩！
啊！这皎洁的明月引起了我的遐想。啊，我知道，这时嫦娥一定很后悔，真应了那句古诗“嫦娥应悔偷灵药，碧海青天夜夜心。”呀！她地偷偷地看着后羿。后羿在地球上看着给嫦娥的月饼和水果，默默地想念着嫦娥。再说吴刚，正在不停地砍五百多丈高的桂树，砍了又长，玉兔专心致志地捣药。
中秋佳节真快乐呀，不但月亮圆，而且人们也和亲人一起团聚。中秋节的月亮真是美极了。
据说，北方农村在八月十五祭神时，有一款贡品就是芋头。整个芋头煮熟装在碟上，或是米粉芋装在大碗里摆在供桌上，以此来祭谢土地神。现在这种谢神仪式已经不存在了，但是吃芋头的*俗却留传了下来。南方人在中秋节祭月时使用芋头，据说是纪念元末为推翻元朝蒙古人暴虐的统治，在八月十五夜晚的汉族的人起义。流传至今还有很多地方在中秋节吃芋头。您也不妨一试，挡不住福气就会冲过来
并且，中秋食芋头，在不少地方民间则寓意辟邪消灾，并有表示不信邪之意。清乾隆《潮州府志》曰：“中秋玩月，剥芋头食之，谓之剥鬼皮”。剥芋而食之，倒还大有钟馗驱鬼的气概。其实芋头在中西医看来，都有很好的营养价值。
而毛芋又叫芋艿，在古时候称蹲鸱，因其外形如鸱鸟下蹲而得名。俗称芋头、芋子、毛芋。中医认为，芋头性味辛，*滑，具有解毒、消肿、益脾胃，调中气的功效，可治跌打损伤、瘀血肿痛。
芋头中富含蛋白质、维生素及多种矿物质。芋头中丰富的营养，能增强人体的免疫力，可作为防治肿瘤的常用药膳主食。芋头中含有一种黏液蛋白，被人体吸收后能产生免疫球蛋白，能提高机体的免疫力。
以上是中秋节为什么吃芋头的内容介绍，希望能增强您对中秋节*俗的了解，对您有所帮助。
在我们家，每年的中秋都很热闹，因为爷爷奶奶每次都会从乡下赶过来和我们团圆。可是今年的中秋节却很冷清，因为奶奶生病了不能来，而爷爷必须在家里照顾奶奶。我看着美丽的夜空，群星闪耀，弯弯的月亮对我微笑。这一切迷人的景象，使我想起了远在他乡的爷爷、奶奶。
我从小在爷爷奶奶家长大，与他们的关系很是亲密。自从七岁那年我跟着爸爸妈妈来到城市后，只能在每年的中秋节时才能见得到他们。“爷爷”、“奶奶”，在我的生活中不再是一个简简单单的称呼，而是跟我很亲很亲的人。
就在今年，奶奶得病了，病得很重，可是爸爸妈妈又没时间回家照顾爷爷奶奶，他们急得团团转，这使我更担心奶奶，怕她永远地离开了我。我的心好忐忑，我好害怕，好害怕。我真想马上回到了老家，看到奶奶，对她说：“奶奶，我来看你了，你一定要快点好起来哦。”但这是不可能的。我只能一个人呆呆地站在窗台边，望着一轮皎洁的明月在天空中向我微笑，就好像奶奶在向我徐徐走来对我说：“莉莉，奶奶来看你了。”但在刚要碰到奶奶时，奶奶不见了。我真想对奶奶说：“奶奶，我爱你，我真的好想你啊！”
我一辈子也不会忘记爷爷奶奶对我的疼爱，是你们教会我要懂得勇敢；是你们教会我要懂得自信地去面对困难；更是你们教会我要懂得去感恩！

This day was also considered as a harvest festival since fruits, vegetables and grain had been harvested by this time and food was abundant. Food offerings were placed on an altar set up in the courtyard. Apples, pears, peaches, grapes, pomegranates(石榴), melons, oranges and pomelos(柚子) might be seen. Special foods for the festival included moon cakes, cooked taro(芋头)and water caltrope(菱角), a type of water chestnut resembling black buffalo horns. Some people insisted that cooked taro be included because at the time of creation, taro was the first food discovered at night in the moonlight. Of all these foods, it could not be omitted from the Mid-Autumn Festival.The round moon cakes, measuring about three inches in diameter and one and a half inches in thickness, resembled Western fruitcakes in taste and consistency. These cakes were made with melon seeds(西瓜子), lotus seeds(莲籽), almonds(杏仁), minced meats, bean paste, orange peels and lard(猪油). A golden yolk(蛋黄) from a salted duck egg was placed at the center of each cake, and the golden brown crust was decorated with symbols of the festival. Traditionally, thirteen moon cakes were piled in a pyramid to symbolize the thirteen moons of a "complete year," that is, twelve moons plus one intercalary(闰月的) moon. uUlsda EThe Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festivity for both the Han and minority nationalities. The custom of worshipping the moon can be traced back as far as the ancient Xia and Shang Dynasties (2000 B.C.-1066 B.C.). In the Zhou Dynasty(1066 B.C.-221 B.C.), people hold ceremonies to greet winter and worship the moon whenever the Mid-Autumn Festtival sets in. It becomes very prevalent in the Tang Dynasty(618-907 A.D.) that people enjoy and worship the full moon. In the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279 A.D.), however, people send round moon cakes to their relatives as gifts in expression of their best wishes of family reunion. When it becomes dark, they look up at the full silver moon or go sightseeing on lakes to celebrate the festival. Since the Ming (1368-1644 A.D. ) and Qing Dynasties (1644-1911A.D.), the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebration becomes unprecedented popular. Together with the celebration there appear some special customs in different parts of the country, such as burning incense(熏香), planting Mid-Autumn trees, lighting lanterns on towers and fire dragon dances. However, the custom of playing under the moon is not so popular as it used to be nowadays, but it is not less popular to enjoy the bright silver moon. Whenever the festival sets in, people will look up at the full silver moon, drinking wine to celebrate their happy life or thinking of their relatives and friends far from home, and extending all of their best wishes to them.Moon Cakes月饼There is this story about the moon-cake. during the Yuan dynasty (A.D. 1280-1368) China was ruled by the Mongolian people. Leaders from the preceding Sung dynasty (A.D. 960-1280) were unhappy at submitting to the foreign rule, and set how to coordinate the rebellion without being discovered. The leaders of the rebellion, knowing that the Moon Festival was drawing near, ordered the making of special cakes. Backed into each moon cake was a message with the outline of the attack. On the night of the Moon Festival, the rebels successfully attached and overthrew the government. Today, moon cakes are eaten to commemorate this legend and was called the Moon Cake.For generations, moon cakes have been made with sweet fillings of nuts, mashed red beans, lotus-seed paste or Chinese dates(枣子), wrapped in a pastry. Sometimes a cooked egg yolk can be found in the middle of the rich tasting dessert. People compare moon cakes to the plum pudding and fruit cakes which are served in the English holiday seasons.

这一天也被认为是一个丰收节，因为水果，蔬菜和粮食已经收获了这个时候，食物丰富。院子里的祭坛上摆着供品。苹果、梨、桃子、葡萄、石榴（石榴）、西瓜、橘子和柚子（柚子）可能会看到。这个节日的特殊食品包括月饼，芋头（芋头）和水caltrope（菱角），一种像黑水牛角的菱角。有些人坚持把煮熟的芋头包括在内，因为在创造的时候，芋头是在月光下发现的第一个食物。所有这些食品，但不能忽略中秋节。圆圆的月饼，直径和一个半英寸厚约三英寸，类似于西方的水果蛋糕味道和浓度。这些蛋糕与瓜子了（西瓜子）、莲子（莲籽）、杏仁（杏仁），肉馅、豆沙、橘子皮和猪油（猪油）。金色的蛋黄（蛋黄）从咸水鸭的蛋被放置在每个蛋糕的中心，和金棕色的壳装饰的节日符号。传统上，十三个月饼被堆放在一个金字塔，象征着一个“完整的一年十三个月，即十二个月加一闰（闰月的）的月亮。了，中秋节是汉族和少数民族的传统节日。月亮崇拜的*俗可以追溯到古代的夏商时期（公元前2000年—公元前1066年）。在周朝（公元前1066年-公元前221年），人们举行仪式迎接冬季和崇拜月亮每当中秋节庆集。在唐代就非常盛行（公元618-907年），人们喜欢和崇拜的满月。在南宋（1127-1279年），但是，人们把月饼给他们的亲戚为他们最好的家庭团聚的愿望表达的礼物。天黑时，他们会仰望满银的月亮，或去湖边观光庆祝节日。自明（公元1368-1644年）和清朝（1644-1911a D.），庆祝中秋节的*俗变得空前流行。一起庆祝出现在全国各地的一些特殊的*俗，如烧香（熏香），种植中秋树、照明塔灯笼舞火龙。然而，在月球下玩耍的*俗不像以前那么流行了，但欣赏明亮的银色月亮并不那么流行。每当节日，人们会期待在充分银月亮，喝着酒，庆祝他们的幸福生活，或思考他们的亲戚和朋友远离家乡，并延长其最良好的祝愿。月饼月饼有这样的故事，月饼。在元朝（公元1280-1368）*是由蒙古人民统治。从前面的宋代领导人（公元960-1280）在提交给外国统治不满，并设置如何协调叛乱而不被发现。起义的领导人知道中秋节即将来临，于是下令制作特制的蛋糕。每个月饼的背面都有一个有攻击轮廓的信息。在中秋节的晚上，反叛者成功地依附并推翻了*。今天，吃月饼是为了纪念这个传说，被称为月饼。一代又一代，月饼有坚果甜馅料，红豆泥，莲子糊和大枣（枣子），酥皮包裹。有时在熟味甜点的中间可以找到熟蛋黄。人们把月饼比喻为在英国节日期间供应的葡萄干布丁和水果蛋糕。
The Hare - Jade Rabbit
野兔——玉兔
In this legend, three fairy sages transformed themselves into pitiful old men and begged for something to eatfroma fox, a monkey and a rabbit. The fox and the monkey both had food to give the old men, but the rabbit, empty-handed, offered his own flesh instead by jumping into a blazing fire to cook himself. The sages were so touched by the rabbits sacrifice that they let him live in the Moon Palace where he became the "Jade Rabbit."
传说中，三味仙人将自己变成可怜的老人向一只狐狸、猴子和兔子乞讨吃的，狐狸和猴子都将自己的食物分给了仙人，只有兔子自己跳入了火坑而将自己的肉献出来，先人们被兔子的牺牲所感动，于是将兔子留在了月宫，这只兔子后来变成了玉兔。
Families get together to eat mooncakes and celebrate theendof the harvest season on this day. Scholars write poems about the moon. This night is also made for romantic rendezvous. Friendships are made and renewed. No wonder the August Moon Festival has a special meaning to all who believe in the mystical powers of the moon.
每到这一天，亲人都会欢聚一堂吃月饼并庆祝丰收。文人们也写了很多跟月亮有关的诗。这个夜晚也是浪漫约会的好时刻。新朋旧友也因此相聚，难怪中秋节对于那些相信月亮神秘力量的人来说有着特殊意义。
When did this festival first begin? No exact date can be found in historical documents, but scholars assume that it is related to 2 customs in China.
中秋节最早是于什么时候庆祝的？目前古籍资料上还没有找到确切时间，但学者们认为他跟*的两个*俗有关。
The first custom concerns farmers. China is an agricultural country, and farming is closely related to the seasons. In ancient times, farmers worshipped the Earth God to pray for a good harvest, when they sowed the seeds in spring. This was known as spring worship. During autumn, farmers also worshipped the Earth God to thank him for giving them a good harvest. This was known as autumn reward. Since the 15" month of the 8th month is the time when rice paddies are harvested, some people believe that the Mid Autumn Festival camefromthe autumn reward ritual.
第一个*俗是关于农民的，*是一个农业大国，而农业跟季节息息相关。在古代，农民们春天撒种播种时会向土地之神祈祷丰收。这就是著名的春日祭祀。到了秋天，人们会再次祭祀土地之神，感谢他给予人们丰收，这就是著名的秋日祭祀，因为阴历8月15日是水稻成熟之时，所以有些人认为中秋节是从秋日祭祀仪式演变而来的。
The second custom concerns worship of the moon. According to astronomy, the Mid Autumn Festival occurs at the autumn equinox. At this time, the sunlight shines vertically on theequator, equally dividing the day and night in both the southern and northern hemispheres. The moon appears in the evening with gentle winds and light clouds. This is the best time to watch the moon. People later made this day, the day to worship the moon.
第二个*俗与祭祀月亮有关。根据天文学，中秋节是秋分之时。在这个时候，太阳直射赤道，南北半球昼夜*分。月亮在晚上出现，云淡风轻，是观月的最佳时机。后来人们就把这一天定为祭祀月亮的日子。

——中秋节英文的作文(五)份
In China, Mid-autumn Day is considered to be a symbol of family reunion. On this day, all the family members gather together at home to celebrate this special occasion. Last year, I could not celebrate the festival with my family because I was in university. However, this special day left a deep impression on me.
I still remember the atmosphere of that evening. All the students who could not go back home assembled in our classroom, having a party to celebrate this traditional festival. We tried our best to show our own enthusiasm. As an ethnic minority, I performed a peacock dance, which received warm applause. After the two-hour party, we went out to the playground and sat together to appreciate the moon because it is a tradition on Mid-autumn Day. We ate moon cakes, played cards, and listened to romantic poems recited by one of our classmates. In that harmonious atmosphere, nobody felt lonely or homesick even though we were far away from our homes.
Thanks to our classmates, I experienced such a colorful and interesting Mid-autumn Day at my university. Thus, I learned to value all the festivals I spent during my university life.
The Middle-Autumn Festival is one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it is often held in September or October. During the festival, family members get united and have moon cakes together. There are various kinds of moon
cakes, such as bean paste, egg-yolk or meat. The shape of a moon cake is round as it symbolizes a big moon. Moreover, in the evening of the
Middle-Autumn Festival, people get together in a vacant place, eating delicious moon cakes while appreciating the beautiful moon hanging in the dark sky. To conclude, the Middle-Autumn Festival is a very nice festival for Chinese people.

The Middle-Autumn Festival is one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it is often held in September or October.
During the festival, family members get united and have mooncakes together. There are various kind of mooncakes, such as bean paste, egg-yolk or meat. The shape of a mooncake is round as it symbolizes a big moon. Moreover, in the evening of the Middle-Autumn Festival, people get together in a vacant place, eating delicious mooncakes while appreciating the beautiful moon hanging in the dark sky.
To conclude, the Midde-Autumn Festival is a very nice festival for Chinese people.
When is the moon? Ask Qingtian about the wine. I don't know what season it would be in the heavens on this night. I want to take advantage of the wind, and I'm afraid that the Qionglou Yuyu will be very cold at the height. Dancing with clear shadows, what is it like in the world?
Time is like running water. The Mid Autumn Festival is coming, and the bright white moon is becoming more and more mellow. So the moon cake, the reduced and improved version of the moon on the market, came out of the Jianghu again! The moon cake is a symbol of the moon at the same level as Chang'e and the jade rabbit. It is also red! Today's system of eating moon cakes and appreciating the moon is the best proof. However, the existence of Chang'e and jade rabbit is not forgotten, because their position in our hearts is irreplaceable, which is what moon cakes do not have. The moon and moon cakes, one of them is in our hearts, and the other is just wandering in our stomachs. After a long time, we may forget what the moon cakes are like. Both Chang'e and the jade rabbit are classics. Who will forget the classics?
The moon came up quietly, like a silver plate, embedded in the dark blue night sky. The moonlight fell quietly, and the whole world seemed to be immersed in the Silver Ocean.
We sat in the pavilion outside the door eating moon cakes. Looking at the bright moon, I couldn't help thinking of Chang'e living in the Moon Palace and the jade rabbit under the osmanthus tree. I remember when I was a child, I thought it was true. I hope to have a pair of wings, fly to the moon, say hello to Chang'e jade rabbit, travel in the air, see a beautiful night scene and observe the big moon. How good it would be!
I think at this time, every family is happy to chat together, eat moon cakes, watch flowers and enjoy the moon. I like the mood of the Mid Autumn Festival. She can bring me new harvest every year. I am willing to feel the love of my relatives in this artistic conception, taste the philosophy of life, and experience the rapid changes in my hometown.
Late at night, the original lively Pavilion suddenly quieted down, and we walked home slowly. I looked up at the cold moon in the sky and thought: sister Chang'e of Guanghan palace must envy the harmony and prosperity of the world
