中国的过年是怎么来的，年是什么，有哪些传说？ 相传年兽头大身小，身长十数尺，眼若铜铃，来去如风；嗷叫时发出“年~”的声音，故名年兽。 古时候每到年末的午夜，年兽就会进攻村子，凡被年兽占领的村子都遭受到残酷的屠杀，头上的犄角就是武器。 人们利用年兽的三大弱点，放爆竹（会吓坏年兽），贴春联，驱赶年兽的进攻。为了防止年兽的再次骚扰，放爆竹、贴春联渐渐成为节日习俗，春节由此成为中华民族的象征之一。 当年兽被赶走以后，人们总是会高兴地互道：“又熬过一个年了。”慢慢的就有了过年的说法，也由此出现过年的习俗了。下面用中英文简单的叙说一下“年”的由来： The legend of Chinese new year 中国新年由来的传说 Long long ago in China, there was а beast, Nina. 在很久很久以前的中国，有个怪兽叫做“年”。 I am Nian. I have sharp teeth and giant claws. 我是年。我有锋利的牙齿和巨大的爪子。 People are scared of Nian. 人们都很害怕年。 So I would sneak into the village and scared everyone. 因此我会潜入村庄去吓唬每个人。 But I am scared of three things: loud noises, fire and the color red. 但是我害怕三件事:噪音、火和红颜色。 Let's fight back! 我们还击吧! L et's beat the drum! 我们敲鼓吧！ Let's set off firecrackers 我们放鞭炮吧！ Let's wear the color red! 我们穿上红色衣服吧！ Nian ran away and never came back. 年逃跑了，再也没有回来。 People celebrated this day every year. 人们每年都会庆祝这一天。 This is the origin of the Spring Festival. 这就是春节的来历。

新年的来历英语翻译：
The Spring Festival originated from the " sacrificial ceremony" at the end of primitive society. At that time, when the sacrificial ceremony was over, the ancestors killed pigs and sheep, sacrificed gods, ghosts and ancestors, and prayed for good weather and good luck in the new year to avoid disaster. They painted their faces with vermilion, covered themselves with bird feathers, sang and danced, ate and drank, and were very lively.
春节起源于原始社会末期的“腊祭”，当时每逢腊尽春来，先民便杀猪宰羊，祭祀神鬼与祖灵，祈求新的一年风调雨顺，免去灾祸。他们用朱砂涂脸，身披鸟羽，唱跳吃喝，热闹非凡。
However, it is generally accepted that the Spring Festival started in Yu Shun. One day in 2000 BC, Shun, the emperor, led his subordinates to worship heaven and earth. Since then, people have regarded this day as the beginning of the year. It is said that this is the origin of the lunar new year, later called the spring festival.
但其中被普遍接受的说法是春节由虞舜时期兴起。公元前2000多年的一天，舜即天子位，带领着部下人员，祭拜天地。从此，人们就把这一天当作岁首。据说这就是农历新年的由来，后来叫春节。
