国际人说节气丨今日寒露，更深露重，记得保暖添衣

袅袅凉风动，凄凄寒露零。”

今天早晨3时55分，迎来寒露节气。

这是二十四节气中第一个带“寒”字的节气，意味着全国大部地区热冷交替季节的来临，天气将由凉爽向寒冷过渡。

公众在饮食调理上，要适当多食甘、淡、滋润的食物，可预防“秋燥”伤人。也可适当多食秋梨膏、柿子、柑橘、香蕉等，既生津止渴、润肺清心，又利肠解毒、调整血压、静心安神。

“寒露寒露，遍地冷露”。你那里变冷了么？今日寒露，更深露重，记得保暖添衣。

寒露是中国传统二十四节气（the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms）中的第十七个节气。如果说“白露”是由炎热向凉爽的过渡，那么作为深秋的节气，“寒露”则是凉爽向寒冷的转变。所以寒露的英文可以表达为Cold Dew。

The dew is bigger and colder and there will be less rain. Autumn crops will be ripe.

寒露时节，许多地区会出现大雾天气。

十月间，温度显著下降。当冷空气遭遇秋雨时，空气中的水汽迅速达到饱和状态，然后化作蒙蒙细雨或雾气。当湿度较高时，全国许多地区会出现大雾天气。

Temperatures drop significantly in October. When the cold air encounters autumn rain, the abundant water vapor in the air soon reaches saturation, and then it turns into misty rain or fog. When the humidity rises, foggy weather appears in many areas of China.

秋钓

关于钓鱼，民间有“秋钓近边”的说法。因为池塘岸边的水相对较浅，水温适宜，更容易钓到鱼。

寒露节气，温度下降迅速，阳光并未彻底抵达深水区。鱼儿会游到温度相对较高的浅水区活动。

During the Cold Dew, temperatures decrease quickly and sunshine cannot reach deep water thoroughly. Fish swim to shallow waters where the temperature is relatively high.

石榴正红

寒露，正是石榴成熟的季节。唐代诗人李商隐就曾用“榴枝婀娜榴实繁，榴膜轻明榴子鲜”来描绘石榴枝叶绰约的风姿和果实的饱满多汁。

几个世纪以来，石榴因其精致的外形、味道、颜色和营养价值而备受推崇。

饮菊花酒

菊花是寒露节气标志性的花。为除秋燥，我国多地有用菊花、糯米等原料酿酒的传统。古人有在重阳节饮菊花酒来祛灾祈福的习俗。

酿菊花酒是重阳节（农历九月九日）的传统，节日通常在寒露前后。根据历史记载，饮用由菊花、茯苓和松脂酿成的酒，可延年益寿。

This is a tradition of the Double Ninth Festival (on the ninth day of the ninth month in the Chinese calendar), which often falls around Cold Dew. According to ancient records, drinking wine made with chrysanthemums, poria cocos mushroom and pine oleoresin grants people long-lasting youth.

山楂待收

寒露前后，正是山楂成熟的时节。一阵秋风吹过，挂满山楂的树枝摇摇曳曳，仿佛急着要将这些酸酸甜甜的果儿献给客人们品尝，煞是诱人。

俗话说：“寒露收山楂。”一直以来，浆果的萃取物都可入草药。而山楂中的抗氧化剂被认为可强健血管，促进血液循环，从而有助于保持心脏健康。

There is a saying that goes "It is time to harvest hawthorn during Cold Dew." Extracts of the berries have long been used in herbal medicine. The antioxidants in hawthorn are thought to boost heart health by strengthening blood vessels and stimulating blood flow.

腌鱼

采“寒露籽”

茶油是从油茶树果实中提取的纯天然食用植物油，寒露前后被采摘的茶籽称为“寒露籽”。

寒露时节，中国北部呈现出一副晚秋的风情画卷：流云，红叶，早霜。行走在小路上，尽情地吸一口带着泥土清香的空气，无论天气是晴是雨，衬着满地红黄相间的落叶和褐色的枝桠，总是让人心情舒畅。

在寒露前后到来的重阳节，素来有插茱萸登高的习俗。

重阳节这天，人们经常带着茱萸去爬山。该习俗可追溯到东汉时期，目的是驱除邪祟。

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, people often climb hills with cornels, a kind of plant. This custom originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD25-220), aiming to dispel the evil.
