鞭炮 (biān pào): фейерверки

On New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers rose and fell throughout the village, and the children covered their ears while laughing and jumping.

As soon as the groom reached the door, the best man lit a string of firecrackers, which crackled for several minutes.

In order to reduce air pollution, many cities have already banned setting off firecrackers during the Spring Festival.

The vendor set up a stall at the temple fair entrance, hawking and selling strings of firecrackers to tourists.

Grandpa said that when he was a child, what he looked forward to most during the New Year was going with the adults to set off firecrackers; that sound made him feel especially festive.
