《年的传说》
Once upon a time, in ancient China, there was a monster named "Nian". It had a long horn and sharp teeth, and it loved to eat people. Every year, on the Lunar New Year's Eve, "Nian" would come out of the mountains and attack villages, eating people and animals.
One year, an old man came to a village and told the people that "Nian" was afraid of loud noises, bright lights, and the color red. He advised the people to hang red lanterns, paste red paper cuts, and set off firecrackers on the Lunar New Year's Eve to scare away "Nian".
The people followed the old man's advice. On the Lunar New Year's Eve, they hung red lanterns, pasted red paper cuts, and set off firecrackers everywhere. When "Nian" saw the bright lights and loud noises, it was scared away and never came back.
From then on, the people lived a peaceful and happy life. They continued to hang red lanterns, paste red paper cuts, and set off firecrackers every Lunar New Year's Eve to celebrate the victory over "Nian" and to welcome the new year.
This story has been passed down from generation to generation and has become a tradition in Chinese culture. Today, people still celebrate the Lunar New Year with these traditions, hoping for a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year.。
