1. An essay describing the delicacies of the Dragon Boat Festival The annual Dragon Boat Festival is here again, and the traditional custom of the Dragon Boat Festival is to eat rice dumplings.

There is a person in our family who is really good at making zongzi—my grandma.

Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, our whole family can eat delicious rice dumplings.

I also wanted to try my hand at making rice dumplings, so I asked my grandma to teach me how to make rice dumplings.

When I arrived at grandma's house in the morning, grandma had already prepared things for wrapping zongzi leaves, including zongzi leaves, glutinous rice, fillings, and some threads for tying zongzi.

The glutinous rice is as white as snow.

I followed my grandma's example, picked up a few rice dumpling leaves, arranged them in order, and then folded the leaves into a cone shape.

I put a lot of glutinous rice, and then grandma said: "You put too much, where do you put the candied dates?" I quickly poured back some rice, then selected a round, crystal clear candied date and put it in.

Grandma said again: "You can also put some red beans." I thought, these are red bean and candied date rice dumplings.

I quickly put a lot of red beans in and started to make the rice dumplings, but then I realized that I put too much rice and red beans and couldn't wrap them up at all, and a lot of them were spilled.

I was getting a little discouraged. Then my grandma comforted me and said, "Don't give up. Throw out some rice and red beans. Try again and you will succeed." With grandma's help, I finally made my first rice dumpling.

.

I kept up my efforts and made several more rice dumplings one after another.

Although these rice dumplings are not as exquisite as grandma's, I still like them very much.

You see, some are like fat piglets, some are like skinny monkeys, and some are like swollen frogs, of different sizes. It is simply an animal rice dumpling exhibition.

The rice dumplings are ready, including red bean and candied date rice dumplings, bean paste rice dumplings, egg yolk rice dumplings, and pork rice dumplings.

Grandma put them in the pot and cooked them.

After a while, the fragrant and attractive aroma of rice dumplings wafted out from the pot. I kept swallowing my saliva and thought to myself: After the rice dumplings are cooked, should I eat the little fat pig first? Or the little skinny monkey? I thought about it.

Let’s decide whether we should stop eating or not.

I want to give the fruits of my labor to my grandparents, parents, and parents to let them experience my filial piety.

Although the rice dumplings are not pretty, they will definitely eat them in their mouths and make them sweet in their hearts.

In the process of cooking rice dumplings, I am always eager to lift the lid to check the situation.

Because the aroma of the rice dumplings wafted out of the pot, which made my mouth water.

The waiting time is always very long. When I saw the steaming rice dumplings finally "liberated" from the pot, I danced with joy.

Put it in a bowl and peel it open with chopsticks, and you can see the golden and soft "rice dumpling meat" inside. Take a bite and it is so delicious that I almost bite off my chopsticks.

This year’s Dragon Boat Festival, I learned how to make rice dumplings and taste the fruits of my labor. The feeling was not ordinary sweet.

2. An essay describing the delicacies of the Dragon Boat Festival. As time goes by, the Dragon Boat Festival becomes more and more blurred in my mind.

I remember when I was a child, I often pestered my mother to tell that familiar story that I never tire of hearing: More than two thousand years ago, ancient China was raging with war. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, there was a patriotic poet who was concerned about his country and his people.

Seeing that his country was facing the danger of national subjugation, but his ambition could not be realized, he was heartbroken and threw sand and stones into the rolling Miluo River. He was Qu Yuan.

People were reluctant to bear the death of their virtuous minister Qu Yuan, so many people rowed boats to chase and rescue them, looking for their beloved Qu Yuan. In order to prevent the fish in the water from eating Qu Yuan's body, they wrapped glutinous rice in the fragrant bamboo leaves.

, and threw himself into the Miluo River... Whenever I finish listening to this story, I always wonder, did Qu Yuan really throw himself into the rolling waves of the Miluo River? Did Qu Yuan really turn into a star in the sky? The fish really did

Will you eat those rice dumplings?... Now, I am growing up.

These questions have also faded away in my mind, and I will no longer bother my parents to tell stories about Qu Yuan.

Instead, I play with the computer, watch TV, do DIY, and read comic stories.

I will never think about topics that are far away to me anymore.

It’s another year when the rice dumpling leaves are fragrant. Although the house is filled with the fragrance of rice dumplings, most of them are bought from the supermarket.

Few people talk about Qu Yuan anymore, and there are even fewer people who know how to make rice dumplings while washing the green mugwort.

There are also some people who regard the Dragon Boat Festival as a dream and live it so simply that they can’t even see the shadow of the rice dumplings.

Nowadays, human beings only focus on crazy mining and desperate expansion.

Let this beautiful global village suffer a lot.

Industrial wastewater flowed into rivers, lakes and seas, and groups of fish died miserably on the beaches.

Deforestation is endless, and mudslides, flash floods, and earthquakes occur frequently.

Soil and water are being lost, rivers are drying up and lakes are drying up.

When can I see that beautiful "dragon boat race" again? Seeing everything happening around me, I keep telling myself: I must strengthen environmental awareness.

To care for the environment, we must pay attention to small things, do not waste water, do not waste electricity, do not waste food, and do not spit everywhere.
