There is an old saying: "Take the time to stop and smell the flowers." I think we should also take the time to 1 flowers.
My grandmother knew just 2 to do that. She grew flowers with earth, water and love, so her back garden was filled with beautiful flowers. She would smile when she saw the 3 shine down on them. In her front garden she planted flowers, 4. You could see red, white, and yellow flowers in it. My mom and I used to walk 5 them and enjoy their smells. Beautiful butterflies (蝴蝶) flew down on them. Grandma also cared for the wild flowers. She would send 6 and my brother out to pick flowers and would then turn them into delicious wine (酒).
Grandma not only planted flowers in the gardens 7 also planted flowers in our hearts. Her delicious dinners made with love encouraged us. Her sweet smile always made us 8. Her hugs (拥抱) and kisses were the sunshine that kept our own love 9 day after day.
Take the time to plant a few flowers yourself today. Show your smiles, kindness and love .Plant your wishes, talents and pleasure. Make this 10 brighter and brighter with your sunshine.
There are lots of fun- filled ethnic(少数民族的) festivals in our country. Let's take a look at some of them.
Ethnic Festivals | Introductions |
March Fair of Bai People | The March Fair is the most important festival for the Bai people living in Dali, Yunnan. It starts from the 15th day of the 3rd lunar month and lasts about 7 days. During the festival, people in and around Dali come together for trade. What's more, they race horses, dance to and sing traditional songs. |
Torch Festival of Yi People | In Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, Yi people celebrate the Torch (火把) Festival. It usually takes place from the 24th to the 26th day of the 6th lunar month every year. As part of the festival, every family needs to light a torch. The idea is that these torches will drive away bad luck. In the center of town, there is always a bonfire(篝火). People of all ages sing and dance around it. |
