端午节,又称龙舟节,起源于中国古代,其来历有多种说法,以下是其中几种主流的观点:

1. **纪念屈原说**:这是最广为人知的说法。相传,屈原是战国时期楚国的忠臣,因为楚怀王听信谗言而被流放。后来楚国被秦国所灭,屈原在绝望中投汨罗江自尽。为了纪念他,人们就在每年的五月初五这天划龙舟、吃粽子。
2. **纪念伍子胥说**:在端午节的一些地区,有纪念春秋时期吴国名将伍子胥的说法。相传伍子胥因忠心耿耿被吴王夫差赐死,其尸体被投入钱塘江,当地人民为了纪念他,就在每年的五月初五这天举行龙舟赛。
3. **避邪驱毒说**:端午节正值夏季,天气炎热,蚊虫滋生,古人认为五月初五是毒虫出没之时,因此在这一天进行一些仪式来驱邪避毒。
4. **纪念孝女曹娥说**:在浙江一带,有纪念孝女曹娥的说法。曹娥的父亲溺江而死,曹娥沿江寻找父亲尸体达十七年,最后在江边悲痛而死。
英文翻译:
The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Duanwu Festival, originated in ancient China, and its origins have various theories, among which the following are the most mainstream:
1. **Memorializing Qu Yuan**: This is the most widely known theory. It is said that Qu Yuan was a loyal minister during the Warring States period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. He was exiled because the King of Chu believed in the gossip. Later, when the state of Chu was conquered by the Qin Dynasty, Qu Yuan drowned himself in the Miluo River in despair. To commemorate him, people hold dragon boat races and eat zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.
2. **Memorializing Wu Zixu**: In some regions, there is a saying that the Dragon Boat Festival commemorates Wu Zixu, a famous general of the State of Wu during the Spring and Autumn period. It is said that Wu Zixu was betrayed and poisoned to death by King Fuchai. His body was thrown into the Qiantang River, and the local people hold dragon boat races to commemorate him on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.
3. **Evading evil and eliminating toxins**: The Dragon Boat Festival falls during the summer, a time when temperatures are high and mosquitoes and other pests are numerous. The ancients believed that the fifth day of the fifth lunar month was the time when toxins and evil spirits were most active, so they performed certain rituals to ward off evil and prevent illness.
4. **Memorializing the filial daughter Cao E**: In some areas of Zhejiang, there is a saying that the Dragon Boat Festival commemorates the filial daughter Cao E. It is said that her father drowned and Cao E searched for his body along the river for seventeen years. Finally, she died of grief by the riverbank.
