儒家文化：中国传统智慧的持久传承Confucian Culture: The EnduringWisdom of Chinese Tradition Confucian Culture, rooted in the teachings of the great Chinese philosopher Confucius, has profoundly shaped China's social values, ethics, and governance for over two millennia. This cultural legacy emphasizes the importance of filial piety, respect for elders, moral integrity, and the pursuit of wisdom.At the heart of Confucianism lies the belief in creating a harmonious society through self-cultivation and moral conduct. The five key relationships, including ruler-subject, parent-child, husband-wife, elder-younger, and friend-friend, form the foundation of Confucian ethics, guiding individuals on the path of righteousness and compassion.Confucian classics, such as the Analects, have been cherished throughout history for their profound insights into human nature and virtue. These teachings have served as a moral compass, fostering a sense of responsibility and duty among individuals in both public and private life.The enduring influence of Confucian Culture extends beyond China's borders, as neighboring countries in East Asia, like Japan and Korea, have also been profoundly influenced by its principles.In modern times, Confucianism remains an integral part of Chinese identity, providing valuable insights into maintaining social harmony and ethical conduct amidst rapid societal changes. It continues to be a source of inspiration and guidance for individuals seeking to cultivate wisdom and live a meaningful life. Confucian Culture exemplifies the timeless wisdom of Chinese tradition, offering profound philosophical perspectives that have stood the test of time.儒家文化：中国传统智慧的持久传承儒家文化，扎根于伟大的中国哲学家孔子的教诲，已经深刻地影响了中国社会的价值观、伦理道德和治理理念长达两千多年。

Legend holds that the Chinese New Year began with a battle against a mythicalbeast called the Nian, who would come on the first day of the new year to eatchildren, livestock, and crops. In order to protect themselves from the Nian, villages put food in front of their doors believing that the creature would eat that and leave everything else alone. It was believed that the Nian was afraid of the colour red and firecrackers, so people would hang red lanterns outside and set off firecrackers.Little New Year, which falls the 23rd day of the 12th month in the Lunar calendar, is also known as the Festival of the Kitchen God, the deity who oversees the moral character of each household.小年农历腊月二十三日是小年，也是祭灶节。

DumplingsDumplings are one of the Chinese people’s favorite traditional dishes. According to an ancient Chinese legend, dumplings were first made by the medical saint—Zhang Zhongjing. There are three steps involved in making dumplings: 1) make dumpling wrappers out of dumpling flour; 2) prepare the dumpling stuffing; 3) make dumplings and boil them. With thin and elastic dough skin, freshen and tender stuffing, delicious taste, and unique shapes, dumplings are worth eating hundreds of times. There’s an old saying that claims, “Nothing could be more delicious than dumplings.”During the Spring Festival and other holidays or when treating relatives and friends, Chinese people like to follow the auspicious custom of eating dumplings. To Chinese people who show high reverence for family love, having dumplings at the moment the old year is replaced by the new is an essential part of bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the New Year.针灸针灸是中医学的重要组成部分。

Introduction to Chinese CalligraphyAs the art of writing Chinese characters, Chinese calligraphy, or shufa, is one of the highest forms of Chinese art, serving the purpose of conveying thoughts while also showcasing abstract beauty of lines.作为书写汉字的艺术，中国书法是中国艺术的最高形式之一，既能传达思想，又能展现抽象的线条美。

Calligraphy is one of the four basic skills and disciplines of the Chinese literati, together with painting (hua), stringed musical instruments (qin) and board games (qi).书法是中国文人的四项基本技能和学科之一，与绘画（华）、弦乐（琴）和棋类游戏（气）齐名。

Chinese calligraphy is an Oriental art. Like the use of chopsticks, calligraphywas once entirely Chinese, but as Chinese culture spread to Korea, Japan, and Singapore, calligraphy became a unique feature of Oriental art.中国书法是一种东方艺术。

与使用筷子一样，书法曾经完全是中国的，但随着中国文化传播到韩国、日本和新加坡，书法成为东方艺术的一个独特特征。

Nowadays, as China is more open to the world and has more communication, more and more foreign friends are becoming interested in Chinese calligraphy.如今，随着中国对世界更加开放，交流越来越多，越来越多的外国朋友对中国书法感兴趣。

概述Introduction中华民族是一个古老的民族，也是一个有深厚文化底蕴的民族。

中国的传统艺术门类繁多、雅俗共赏，从悠扬动人的民间音乐到细腻缠绵的地方戏曲，从疏洁淡雅的水墨画到刚柔并济的书法，无不闪烁着智慧之光，令人赞叹不已。

China, a nation of long history with profound culture, inherited and developed a great variety of traditional art forms which suit both refined and popular tastes. From the melodious and pleasant folk music to the elaborate and touching local dramas, form the simple but elegant inkwash painting to the flexible and power calligraphy, one can always discern the light of sparkling wisdom. Traditional Chinese arts have tremendously impressed the world.舞狮舞狮大约起源于南北朝时期，到了唐朝，狮子舞已发展为上百人集体表演的大型歌舞。

舞狮在中国是一项传统体育项目，也是一种传统文化艺术，从北方到南方，从城市到乡村，逢年过节及庆典盛事，都可以看到欢快的舞狮。

民间认为舞狮可以很好地把百姓的欢喜心情表达出来，也最能烘托热闹气氛。

舞狮尤以广东地区一带最为盛行。

用来舞动的狮子外形威武，动作刚劲，神态多变，广东人称它为“醒狮”。

中国百姓对狮子有图腾般的崇敬感，狮子在民间有很多传说，其位置仅次于龙，因此舞狮也就带有了不少神秘色彩。

人们相信狮子是吉祥瑞兽，而舞狮能够带来好运，所以每逢节日和喜庆活动，都会舞狮助兴，祈求吉利和如意。
