请用英语给我描述一下中国的一个传统节日,写一小段话,不要求字数多,要求好,只要朗读能在一分钟左右即可
Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival,also known as the Chinese New Year.To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West.The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar,so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.
To the ordinary Chinese,the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year's Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar.But the 15th of the first month,which normally is called the Lantern Festival,means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.
Preparations for the New Year begin the last few days of the last moon,when houses are thoroughly cleaned,debts repaid,hair cut and new clothes purchased.Houses are festooned with paper scrolls bearing auspicious antithetical couplet (as show on both side of the page) and in many homes,people burn incense at home and in the temples to pay respects to ancestors and ask the gods for good health in the coming months.
