一年一度的清明节又到了。清明节是中华民族祭祖扫墓的传统节日，也是二十四节气之一。
在我的家乡，清明节的主要习俗就是扫墓祭祖，所以又把清明称为“鬼节”。民间还有上坟、添坟的习俗。晚辈带着烧纸，供品等，到已去世的亲人坟上，烧纸磕头。最后给坟墓上添新土，还要在坟头上压白纸条。听老人们讲这是给已去世的亲人修房屋，防备夏天，下大雨漏水。以此来表示对去亲人的悼念。此时我想起了大诗人杜牧的《清明》一诗：“清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂，借问酒家何处有，牧童遥指杏花村。”
清明节正是春天的时候，万物复苏，春光明媚，桃红柳绿，到处是一派生机勃勃的景象。除扫墓之外，还有踏青郊游的活动。这时，人们就会带着家人到野外去游玩，来放松放松自己因工作而紧张的情绪，还可以增加家庭的和睦气氛。
清明节还是植树的好季节。因此又有插柳植树的活动。听老人们说旧时候有“清明不插柳，来年变黄狗”的谚语。
除了以上的风俗以外，清明还有吃蛋的习俗。这就如同春节吃饺子，端午节吃粽子，中秋节吃月饼的习俗一样。这些习俗随着社会的发展，有的已经被淘汰，有的流传至今，有的还增加的新的内容。
清明除了这些习俗之外，还有我们小伙伴的欢乐活动，荡秋千，放风筝。最好玩的要数放风筝了。大家在一片宽阔的空地上，跑来跑去，欢声笑语，共同把风筝送上蔚蓝的天空，大家一起放飞欢乐，放飞梦想，放飞希望……

今天是清明节。古人云：清明时节雨纷纷。这天气也阴沉沉的，我们一家去慈湖踏青。
我们走在路上，看到那坚强的小草又凭着它顽强的毅力破土而出，对迎接春天不甘示弱，它换上了碧绿的新衣裳，绿草中鲜花片片，有红的，有绿的，有黄的……我们又走了一段路，来到一片田野里，眼前到处是一片赏心悦目的.金黄，油菜花精神抖擞的肃立着，一颗颗珍珠般的露珠滑滑梯似的在金灿灿的小花上滚来滚去……慈湖边，柳树的一条条杨柳辫上还有绿叶和嫩芽装饰，真是比任何女孩的头饰品还要好看。
经过了慈湖陵园，我们情不自禁地走了进去。看着烈士们的坟墓，看着一个个花圈，看着纯洁的小白花，我的心中不由波涛起伏。我想了许多许多：我们今天的幸福美好生活都是由革命先烈为我们创造出来的，也是用他们的鲜换来的。于是，我的心中起了一个念头：要继承先烈遗志，发奋学习，努力成为建设国家的栋梁。
接着，我们又去了黄夹岙，山上也人山人海，大家脸上都充满着怀念，看着这景象，我的心中又有了一些惋惜。希望我的长辈们都能够长命百岁，身体健康。
这次的清明节踏青给了我更多的感触，还使我又一次了解了大自然柔美的一面，我的收获好大啊!

Do you ever watch movies from other countries? Whenever I do, I think about how similar people really are all around the world. Even though the cultures and languages in those movies are different from mine, people all around the world are alike in their goals and emotions.
One time, I saw a movie made in china that showed parents helping their children with their homework. . My parents helped me the same way. Another time I saw a movie from Argentina. It showed school children playing hide and seek, which is a game I used to play with my friends during recess. Seeing these films demonstrated to me that education is a common goal in every country. Parents want their children to learn so their lives will improve. It also showed me that children in schools everywhere wants to play with their friends. Sometimes the games are similar to ours and sometimes they’re different. Still, they all have the common purpose of fun and learning to work together.
Earning a living is another common goal. I’ve often seen that in movies about other countries. In some countries, people choose their careers from what they like and are good at. In other countries, careers are chosen for them following the traditions of their families. But in every country it seems that people care a great deal about earning a living, and working hard is respected.
Showing people having fun together is always an important part of any movies, no matter what country it comes from. People everywhere want to be entertained, and want to spend time with their families and friends. Different cultures sometimes enjoy different activities, but all cultures enjoy some form of sports, music and dancing.
The movies I’ve seen make it clear to me that no matter the cultural differences between countries, people everywhere have the same basic needs and goals.
