復活節英文介紹
Why we dye, or color, and decorate eggs is not certain. In
ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome and Persia eggs were dyed for
spring festivals. In medieval Europe, beautifully decorated eggs
were given as gifts.
Egg Rolling
In England, Germany and some other countries, children
rolled eggs down hills on Easter morning, a game which has been
connected to the rolling away of the rock from Jesus Christ‘s
tomb when he was resurrected. British ttlers brought this
custom to the New World.
In the United States in the early nineteenth century, Dolly
Madison, the wife of the fourth American President, organized an
egg roll in Washington, D.C. She had been told that Egyptian
children ud to roll eggs against the pyramids so she invited the
children of Washington to roll hard-boiled eggs down the hilly
lawn of the new Capitol building! The custom continued, except
for the years during the Civil War. In 1880, the First Lady invited
children to the White Hou for the Egg Roll becau officials had
complained that they were ruining the Capitol lawn. It has been
held there ever since then, only canceled during times of war. The
event has grown, and today Easter Monday is the only day of the
year when tourists are allowed to wander over the White Hou
lawn. The wife of the President sponsors it for the children of the
entire country. The egg rolling event is open to children twelve
years old and under. Adults are allowed only when accompanied
by children!
