锣鼓喧天，龙舟竞渡，这正是端午节期间延续千年的习俗——赛龙舟。
Thedeafening soundofgongs and drums, the dragon boatsrowing, these symbolize the custom that continues for thousands of yearsduring the Duanwu Festival—the Dragon Boat Racing.
2300年前，伟大爱国诗人屈原在汨罗江中投身殉国，衍生出各式各样的纪念习俗，汨罗也因此成为“端午源头”“龙舟故里”。
2300 years ago, the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan threw himself into theMiluo Riverto express his will, and various commemorative customsderived from his death.Miluo has also become the "Birthpalce of Duanwu",and the "Dragon Boat Hometown".
河流水网发达的湖南，湘资沅澧“四水”汇入洞庭。每年的端午期间，波光粼粼的江河里，三湘儿女万众齐心，赛龙夺锦，既是寄托国泰民安、风调雨顺的美好愿景，又是一代代湖南人团结奋进、拼搏争先的精神写照。
In Hunan, where the river network is well-developed, the "four rivers" of Xiang, Zi, Yuan, and Li converge into Dongting. During the DuanwuFestival every year, in the sparkling rivers, Hunan peoplegather together to compete for thegold medal(in the Dragon Boat Racing). This isnot only a good wish of country’s prosperityand peopleatpeace, but also a reflection of the spiritof Hunan people fighting together and striving for excellence.
