摘　　要：中国古代有着大量的对于流星和流星雨的观测记录,最早可以追溯到3000多年以前。在这些珍贵的记录中,不仅有对于流星的一般描述,而且还有一些至今不能完全理解的特殊流星现象的记录。基于现代对电声变换流星声、流星体的螺旋线形运动、流星的颜色变化和流星的分裂等等的研究,列出在中国古代文献中可以查找到的有关记录。这些记录,不仅是世界文化宝库的一部分,而且对于今天的研究仍有实用价值。对电声变换流星声的报道,只是近20年来,才确立了的并非是观测者的臆想。流星的现代彩色照相观测,更真实地记录和展现了其他的特殊流星现象和它们的发生与演变。这些古代记录与现代的流星观测的对比,可以起到相互印证的作用。In ancient Chinese literature there are lot of recordings for special meteoric phenomena. The earliest can be found back to more than three thousand years ago. These rare recordings described not only ordinary phenomena of meteors, but also some special phenomena we cannot understand and explain completely today. These recordings for special phenomena, like Electrophonic-Meteor-Sounds, moving of a meteoroid along a spire line, color variation of a meteor, and its splitting and their modern confirmations are listed and discussed. These recordings are not only parts of the treasury of world culture, but also have very important value for investigation of meteors and meteor showers.
