Dear Harry,

How are you? I’m really glad that you are interested in Chinese traditional festivals. So,I’d like to tell you something about these festivals. Spring Festival is the most important festival in my country.It is to celebrate the lunar calendar’s new year. Before the festival,we clean our homes and sweep away all the bad luck. On the evening before Spring Festival we have a big family dinner. We eat jiaozi—a kind of dumpling and other delicious food. After dinner, we will go outside to play fireworks.

In China, another important festival is Mid-autumn Day.It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month.It is time for family getting together. On that night the moon is brighter and fuller than any other night. .I love it very much. Because on that day ,our families will stay outside in the open air to eat a big dinner and moon cakes. The most important thing is looking at the moon, the moon looks brighter and rounder. We call this moon the full moon.

What great festivals ! I love them . I am sure you will love them too.

Write and tell me something about your festivals.

Moon Festival The Moon Festival or Mid -autumn Festival is one of the three major traditional festivals celebrated by Chinese people. Like harvest time in other countries, the Mid-autumn Festival actually began as a thanksgiving celebration, honoring the Soil God and the Crop God. This is also a time for family reunions. Chinese people enjoy moon cakes during this feast just as they eat rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival. It is quite appropriate to bring moon cakes with you in token of festival greetings when calling on people during this season.
