【端午节初中英语作文100词（作文2350字）】The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. It falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year. This festival is famous for its special food, zongzi, and the dragon boat races.

On this day, people usually eat zongzi, which are rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves. They come in different flavors, such as meat, red bean, and egg yolk. The festival also has a special story behind it. It is said that Qu Yuan, a great poet, drowned himself in the river. People threw zongzi into the water to prevent fish from eating his body. That’s why we eat zongzi today.

Another exciting part of the festival is the dragon boat race. Teams row boats shaped like dragons, competing against each other. The sound of drums and the cheers of the crowd make the atmosphere very lively.

In my family, we always celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival together. My mother makes zongzi, and my father tells me stories about Qu Yuan. I love this festival because it brings us closer and helps me learn more about our culture.

This festival is not only a time for fun but also a way to remember history and tradition. I think it’s important to keep these customs alive so that future generations can also enjoy them.
