七夕节起源于汉代，东晋葛洪的《西京杂记》中有“汉彩女常以七月七日穿七孔针于开襟楼，人俱习之。”这便是我国古代文献中最早的关于乞巧的记载；唐朝王建有诗云：“阑珊星斗缀珠光，七夕宫娥乞巧忙”；《开元天宝遗事》载：唐太宗与妃子每逢七夕在清宫夜宴，宫女们各自乞巧，这一习俗在民间经久不衰，代代延续。

Qixi Festival originated in the Han Dynasty. In Gehong's Miscellaneous Records of Xijing in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there is a saying: "Han Cainu often wears seven-hole needles in the open-top building on July 7, which is common to all people." This is the earliest record of Qiqiao in ancient Chinese literature; Tang Dynasty built a poem cloud: "The stars of the appendix battle pearls.

Double Seventh Festival

The Double Seventh Festival, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, is a traditional festival full of romance. It often goes into August in the Gregorian calendar

This festival is in mid-summer when the weather is warm and the grass and trees reveal their luxurious greens. At night when the sky is dotted with stars, and people can see the Milky Way spanning from the north to the south. On each bank of it is a bright star, which see each other from afar. They are the Cowherd and Weaver Maid, and about them there is a beautiful love story passed down from generation to generation.

Long, long ago, there was an honest and kind-hearted fellow named Niu Lang (Cowhand). His parents died when he was a child. Later he was driven out of his home by his sister-in-law. So he lived by himself herding cattle and farming. One day, a fairy from heaven Zhi Nu (Weaver Maid) fell in love with him and came down secretly to earth and married him. The cowhand farmed in the field and the Weaver Maid wove at home. They lived a happy life and gave birth to a boy and a girl. Unfortunately, the God of Heaven soon found out the fact and ordered the Queen Mother of the Western Heavens to bring the Weaver Maid back.

With the help of celestial cattle, the Cowhand flew to heaven with his son and daughter. At the time when he was about to catch up with his wife, the Queen Mother took off one of her gold hairpins and made a stroke. One billowy river appeared in front of the Cowhand. The Cowhand and Weaver Maid were separated on the two banks forever and could only feel their tears. Their loyalty to love touched magpies, so tens of thousands of magpies came to build a bridge for the Cowhand and Weaver Maid to meet each other. The Queen Mother was eventually moved and allowed them to meet each year on the 7th of the 7th lunar month. Hence their meeting date has been called "Qi Xi" (Double Seventh).

Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220). Historical documents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD371-420) mention the festival, while records from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depict the grand evening banquet of Emperor Taizong and his concubines. By the Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1279-1368) dynasties, special articles for the "Qi Xi" were seen being sold on markets in the capital. The bustling markets demonstrated the significance of the festival.

Today some traditional customs are still observed in rural areas of China, but have been weakened or diluted in urban cities. However, the legend of the Cowhand and Weaver Maid has taken root in the hearts of the people. In recent years, in particular, urban youths have celebrated it as Valentine's Day in China. As a result, owners of flower shops, bars and stores are full of joy as they sell more commodities for love.

『肆』 用英语来描述一下七夕节的来历，要简短，中文也要有

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the only Chinese festival devoted to love in the Lunar calendar.

Unlike St. Valentine's Day in Western countries there is not so much emphasis on giving chocolates, flowers and kisses.

Instead, Chinese girls prepare fruits, melons and incense as offerings to Zhi Nu, the weaving maiden.

Praying to acquire high skills in needlecraft, as well as hoping to find satisfactory husbands.

In the evening, people sit outdoors to observe the stars.

Chinese grannies would say that, if you stand under a grapevine, you can probably overhear what Zhi Nu and Niu Lang are talking about.

农历七月初七是中国唯一的一个关于爱情的节日。

与西方国家的情人节不同的是，人们并没有那么重视巧克力、鲜花和亲吻。

相反，中国女孩准备水果、瓜香作为祭品送给织女，祈祷获得高超的针线工艺，并希望找到令人满意的丈夫。

晚上，人们坐在户外看星星。中国的奶奶们会说，如果你站在葡萄树下，你可能会无意中听到织女和牛郎在说什么。

(4)七夕节的英文介绍扩展阅读：

七夕（中国传统节日）一般指七夕节，又称七巧节、七姐节、女儿节、乞巧节、七娘会、巧夕、牛公牛婆日、双七等，是中国民间的传统节日，为传统意义上的七姐诞，因拜祭活动在七月七日晩上举行，故名“七夕”。

拜七姐，祈福许愿、乞求巧艺、坐看牵牛织女星、祈祷姻缘、储七夕水等，是七夕的传统习俗。经历史发展，七夕被赋予了“牛郎织女”的美丽爱情传说，因被赋予了与爱情有关的内涵，使其成为了象征爱情的节日，从而被认为是中国最具浪漫色彩的传统节日，在当代更是产生了“中国情人节”的文化含义。

七夕节既是拜七姐节日也是爱情节日，是一个以“牛郎织女”民间传说为载体，以祈福、乞巧、爱情为主题，以女性为主体的综合性节日。七夕的“牛郎织女”来源于人们对自然天象的崇拜，上古时代人们将天文星区与地理区域相互对应，这个对应关系就天文来说，称作“分星”，就地理来说，称作“分野”；牛郎织女星象对应地理分野的记载见于《汉书·地理志》：“粤地，牵牛、婺女之分野也”。

七夕节发源于中国，是世界上最早的爱情节日，在七夕节的众多民俗当中，有些逐渐消失，但还有相当一部分被人们延续了下来。在部分受中华文化影响的亚洲国家如日本、朝鲜半岛、越南等也有庆祝七夕的传统。2006年5月20日，七夕节被中华人民共和国国务院列入第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。

Or should we say Happy Night of Sevens! (七夕 or qi xi) or Happy Festival to Plead for Skills! (乞巧节 or qi qiao jie) or Happy Seventh Sister's Birthday! (七姐诞 or qi jie dan) or Happy Night of Skills! (巧夕 or qiao xi)? This is the day Shanghaiist has had circled on our lunar calendar for some time now, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Today we will display our skill at carving melons, we will decorate the horns of our neighborhood oxen with flowers and we will go to the "temple of matchmaker" and pray that we get hooked up. Good times, good times. China Daily fills us in on the holiday's history:

The festival has its origin from a romantic tragedy. As the story goes, once there was a cowherd, Niulang, who lived with his elder brother and sister-in-law. But she disliked and abused him, and the boy was forced to leave home with only an old cow for company. The cow, however, was a former god who had violated imperial rules and was sent to earth in bovine form.
One day the cow led Niulang to a lake where fairies took a bath on earth. Among them was Zhinu, the most beautiful fairy and a skilled seamstress.

The two fell in love at first sight and were soon married. They had a son and daughter and their happy life was held up as an example for hundreds of years in China.

Yet in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Deity in Taoism, marriage between a mortal and fairy was strictly forbidden. He sent the empress to fetch Zhinu.

Too bad this LSD trip didn't take place in Canada. Fairies can marry whoever they want there. Several other variations on the story of qi xi exist. China Daily, it seems, glossed over the juiciest part of the story:

A young cowherd named Niu Lang (牛郎, "the cowherd", the star Altair) happens across seven fairy sisters bathing in a lake. Encouraged by his mischievous companion the ox, he steals their clothes and waits to see what will happen next. The fairy sisters elect the youngest and most beautiful sister Zhi Nü (织女, "the weaver girl", the star Vega) to retrieve their clothing. She does so, but since Niu Lang sees her naked she must agree to his request for marriage.

Chinese Valentine's Days in a year
Chinanews Anthony

Chinanews, Beijing, July 31 - Today in the 7th day of the 7th month in the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, the Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival, which is considered as the Chinese Valentine's Day, a sweethearts day. However, what is sweeter is that there will be a second Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival on August 30, as there is a intercalary seventh month this year. The last time when there were two Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festivals in a year was in 1968.

The Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival, also known as the Needlework's Day or Girl's Day, on which girls pray to the Weaving-Maid for her blessing on their needlework, and of which the most romantic part is the love story between Weaving-Maid and Cowherd.

It is said that Cowherd from the mundane world and Weaving-Maid from heaven loved each other. They were separated by the Milky Way at the order of the Queen Mother of the Western Heaven, and were permitted to meet only once a year. Cowherd and Weaving-Maid became the stars Altair and Vega. They would meet on the seventh night of the seventh lunar month every year, with the magpies making a bridge to help them cross the Milky Way. People regarded the date of wedding as " meeting of stars " so far. Their beautiful tale has touched the hearts of so many young lovers in China throughout the ages, thus every year on the Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival, many lovers would prey to the two stars for love and happiness.

Two Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festivals in a year is more than good news to lovers, but why? That is because the traditional Chinese lunar calendar is based on the syzygies of the moon, and there are only 355 or 354 days in a year, 11 days less than a solar year. The solution to this problems is to add seven intercalary months every 19 years, thus in 2006 an intercalary seventh month is added, making two Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festivals.

『捌』 中国七夕节英文介绍

每年的农历七月初七被称为“七夕”。阿拉伯数字“7”在汉语中写做“七”，而“夕”在古汉语中指夜晚，所以“七夕”的字面义就是农历七月初七的晚上。

The day falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month and seven is qi in Chinese. So that explains qi in the name of the festival. Xi means “night” in ancient Chinese, so qixi means the evening of the seventh day of the seventh month.

七夕节也称“乞巧节”，是闺中女子向织女祈求智慧和巧技的日子。姑娘们祈祷自己能有一双织女般的巧手，寻得一位如意郎君。

But qixi wasn’t a festival for lovers until recently. It was initially a time for unwed women to beg the weaving goddess for domestic skills. They’d also pray for a good husband.

传说天上的织女与牛郎相恋，便留在人间和他生儿育女。可是织女擅离天庭，私配凡人，触怒了王母娘娘。于是她在天界划了一道银河，将牛郎织女拆散，一对有情人从此天各一方。

Lore holds the weaving goddess fell for a herder, and the pair ran away to live together. But her mother was furious, since gods and humans are forbidden to cohabitate. So, she created the Milky Way to separate the couple.

幸运的是，一群喜鹊被二人的爱情感动，跨越银河搭成鹊桥。从此，每逢农历七月初七，牛郎织女便得以鹊桥相会。

A flock of magpies was moved by their love and decided to form a bridge across the galactic band to enable them to reunite every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month-or, qixi.
