中国地震多发的主要原因是————位于亚欧板块、太平洋板块、印度洋板块三大板块交界地带附近，位于世界两大地震带交会处。 China locates near the border of Eurasian plate—Pacific plate—Indian Ocean plate and at the junction of the two major world seismic zones, which is the main reason of frequent earthquakes in China. 腊八节是十二月初八，古代称为“腊日”，腊八是古代欢庆丰收，感谢祖先和神灵的祭祀仪式，夏代称腊日为“嘉平”，商代为“清祀”，周代为“大蜡”，又因在十二月举行，故称改月为腊月。 Laba Festival is on the 8th day of the 12th lunar month, which was called "Lari"(ri means day) in ancient times. Laba was originally a sacrificial ceremony to celebrate a good harvest of the year and appreciate our ancients as well as the gods. Lari was called "Jiaping"(it refers to the 12th lunar month) in Xia dynasty(2070-1600BC), "Qingsi"(it refers to the 12th lunar month) in Shang dynasty(1600-1046BC), and "Dala"(it refers to a famous sacrificial ceremony) in Zhou dynasty(1046-256BC). As Laba Festival is hold in the 12th lunar month, the month is also called "Layue"(yue means month). 在计算工具方面，殷商时就发明了“算筹”，算筹是圆形小竹棍，以后有了骨制、铁制的，以算筹表示数目，有纵、横两种形式，如“2”可表示为“=”或“||”。 As for calculation tools, dating back to the Yin and Shang periods(1766-1122BC), Chinese ancients invented "Suanchou", which were small round bamboo sticks and transformed into bone sticks and iron sticks afterwards. It was used to count numbers with two representing forms—— being horizontal or vertical. For example, two could be represented as "=" or "||".--Gao Mingzhu (talk) 12:29, 25 September 2020 (UTC)Gao Mingzhu

The Mid-autumn Festival is a festival for families to get together in China. It falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month when the full moon returns to the sky.

The ancient compass, Zhinanzhen, looked like a spoon. When the spoon was put on a plate, its handle could point to the south using magnetic fields. Then Chinese used a little steel needle to replace the spoon and this made the Zhinanzhen easier to carry.

Tang Bei 汤蓓

往古之时，四极废，九州裂，天不兼覆，地不周载；火爁焱而不灭，水浩洋而不息；猛兽食颛民，鸷鸟攫老弱。

In ancient times, the four corners of the sky collapsed and the world with its nine regions split open. The sky could not cover all the things under it, nor could the Earth carry all the things on it. A great fire raged and would not die out; a fierce flood raced about and could not be checked. Savage beats devoured innocent people; vicious birds preyed on the weak and old.

浮游逍遥，道鬼神，登九天，朝帝於灵门，宓穆休於太祖之下。

Floating freely over the clouds, she took ghosts and gods to the ninth heaven and had an audience with the Heavenly Emperor at Ling Men, where she rested in peace and dignity under the emperor.

女娲不彰其功，不扬其声，隐真人之道，以从天地之固然。

Nuwa never boasted of her achievements, nor did she try to win any renown; she wanted to conceal her virtues, in line with the ways of universe.--Tang Bei (talk) 13:23, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Outside the apparatus are eight dragons holding bronze balls in mouth towards eight directions. Right below these dragons are toads sitting on the pedestal.

In this way, the direction of earthquake can be pointed out.--Tang Yiran1 (talk) 09:13, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

华西秋雨以绵绵细雨为主。唐代文学家柳宗元曾用“恒雨少日，日出则犬吠”来形容四川盆地阴雨多、日照少的气候特点。 The autumn rain in West China features continuous and fine rain. Liu Zongyuan, the well-known writer in Tang Dynasty, described the weather in Sichuan Basin as “continuous rain, rare sunny day, even dog would bark in joy, when sun appears”.

家庭是华人社会的基石，一年一度的团圆饭充分表现出中华民族家庭成员的互敬互爱，这种互敬互爱使一家人之间的关系更为紧密。 Families are the cornerstone of the whole society in China. A reunited dinner each year fully presents the mutual respect and love between family members, which contributes to a closer family.

东汉和帝时，蔡伦用树皮、破布、废网等造纸，纸质坚韧，造价便宜，于是“天下咸称蔡侯纸”。 In the year of Emperor Liu Zhao of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cai Lun made paper of higher quality using cheap materials like tree bark, tatters, and scrapped net.

道教文化是华夏文明的底色，也是人类文明的留白之处，好象宇宙的空间地带，虽然不可及，却支撑着整个宇宙。 Taoist culture plays an essential part in Chinese civilization, as well as a reservation of human civilization. It’s like an empty space in the universe, which was far away, but supports the whole universe.

蒙古族在中秋的这一天，会组织大家一起来玩“追月”的游戏，一群人在圆月之下，飞奔在草原上，一直朝着西方奔去，因为月亮是从东方升起，在西方坠落，所以朝着西方奔去才算是“追月”，这一风俗符合了蒙古族的潇洒的性格。 In the Mid-Autumn festival,Mongolians will group together to play the game "chasing the moon".Under the full moon,a group of people will gallop on the grassland and run all the way towards the west.Since the moon rises in the east and falls in the west, it is regared as "chasing the moon" running towards the west.This custom is consistent with the natural and unrestrained character of the Mongolian nationality.

当春天的时候，我国的最北方黑龙江省还是白雪皑皑、冰封千里之时，远在千里之外的海南岛已经是春暖花开、鸟语花香了。

In spring when Heilongjiang province, the northest one of China, is covered with snow and ice, Hainan island, thousands of miles away from it, is immersed in a warm atmosphere with fragrance of flowers in full blossoms and singing of lively birds.

每逢中秋之夜，人们仰望月中丹桂，闻着阵阵桂香，喝一杯桂花蜜酒，欢庆合家甜甜蜜蜜，欢聚一堂，已成为佳节的一种美的享受。
