duanwu festival (端午节, duānwū jié) is a traditional chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the chinese calendar. it is also known as the double fifth.[citation(引用;引证) needed] it has since been celebrated, in various ways, in other parts of east asia as well. in the west, it's commonly known as dragon boat festival.
the exact origins of duan wu are unclear, but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the chinese poet qu yuan (c. 340 bc-278 bc) of the warring states period. he committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the chu government. the local people, knowing him to be a good man, decided to throw food into the river to feed the fish so they would not eat qu's body. they also sat on long, narrow paddle boats called dragon boats, and tried to scare the fish away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking carved dragon head on the boat's prow(船头).
in the early years of the chinese republic, duan wu was also celebrated as "poets' day," due to qu yuan's status as china's first poet of personal renown(名声名望).
today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings called zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fish) and race dragon boats in memory of qu's dramatic death.

赛龙舟是端午节的一种独特的民俗活动，这个活动的起因是为纪念我国古代时的一伟大的诗人——屈原而设立的。
我今年有幸去看了一次赛龙舟，因为爸爸当天正好有空，所以我们全家去看赛龙舟。到达赛龙舟的场地时，岸两边早已被围观的人们围得水泄不通了，我看了桥上的一个空挡，便叫家人挤了过去。这个位置居高临下整个江面一目了然。
赛龙舟开始了，每只龙舟都像一支离弦的箭，一个劲的向前冲，每一只龙舟下面都绑着不少粽子，每向前一步，龙舟上都有人用刀子把粽子斩下扔进水里。每只龙舟的速度都不分上下：一会儿1号领先，不一会儿8号又追上了。
突然，划船手好像力气大增，每一只龙舟的速度更快了。这时，击鼓手开始鸣鼓了，划船手顿时很有节奏的跟着喊起：“咚!咚!咚咚咚!嗬!嗬!嗬嗬嗬……”天公也好像来助威，开始下起了毛毛细雨。真是鼓声!人声!助威声!声声震耳!雨水!汗水!江水水水相容!
龙舟的速度越来越快，仿佛龙群在江水中急速飞腾。渐渐的，渐渐的。1号，5号，9号构成了领先集团。100米!50米!20米……终点越来越近，只见5号的力量一发不可收拾的爆发了!把后面的两条龙舟远远地甩在后面，然后冲线了!
赛龙舟真是一项激烈的比赛啊!

每年农历五月初五是中国民间的传统节日--端午节。
过端午节，是中国人两千多年来的习惯。关于端午节的由来以纪念屈原的说法最为广泛。相传屈原是战国时期楚国的大夫，因为爱国理想不能实现而抱石投汨罗江自杀。人们为了纪念他，便把他投江的日期定为端午节。
说到端午节，最常见的习俗要数吃粽子。虽然商店里的粽子品种很多，但是，我还是喜欢家里包的粽子。在端午节的前两天妈妈就会把包粽子的芦苇叶买回来用清水煮好，然后准备包粽子的原料：糯米、肉、豆沙、红枣等。接下来和奶奶一起包粽子，每次奶奶都会选取两三片叶子，左手捏住叶子的一头，右手用三个手指捏住叶子的另一头轻轻地往里一卷，卷成一个圆锥体的形状，卷好后就往里面放准备好的原料，最后用棉线把粽子捆结实，一个有模有样的四角粽“宝宝”就诞生了。
在这一天，人们还会插艾叶、赛龙舟。端午节真是个充满神奇、充满喜悦、充满热闹的节日。
