channeling panic. So people know " years ",
during the " years", each and every family
door home furnishing, red paste, burning
firecrackers to drive " ". " Year" fruit will not
come. "Year" was no longer. People rejoice
over the "year ", beat gongs and sound drums,

古时,有怪兽名曰“年”,形若狮子而独角。定时出现伤害人畜,人们苦无制服之法。一次,“年”闯入某村,巧遇穿红衣,燃竹竿取暖者,“噼啪”爆炸有声,红光闪耀,“年”惊窜奔逃。于是人们认识“年”性,每逢“年”出时,家家户户闭门家居,贴红联,燃爆竹以驱“年”。“年”果不再来。人们庆幸过了“年关”,敲锣打鼓,互称“恭喜”,从此有
了“过年”。 Good luck in the year ahead!
