    We call the Chinese New Year the Spring Festival. There is{#blank#}1{#/blank#} name for each Chinese year. We may call it the year of the dog, the year of the tiger,{#blank#}2{#/blank#}the year of the pig…. And this year is the year of the{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(猴).

Before New Year's Day, people are busy {#blank#}4{#/blank#} （shop）and cleaning their houses. On New Year's Eve（除夕夜）, there {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(be) a big family dinner. After dinner, all the family stay up{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(lately) (熬夜) to welcome the New Year.

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the first day of the New Year, people put on {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they) new clothes and go to see their {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(friend). They say “Good Luck!” and some other greetings（问候） to each other. People {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (usual) have a very good time during the festival.

    Is your TV {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (connect) to the Internet？What about your chair, or your fridge? {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (probable) they are not. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} in the future, most things in your home may be connected, thanks to the so- called "Internet of things".

    The Internet of things may be coming sooner {#blank#}4{#/blank#} you think. Earlier this year, Samgsung CEO spent a lot of time {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (talk.) about the Internet of things. He said that five years from now, every Samgsung product {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (be) part of the Internet of things, no matter {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. It's a remote control or a washingmachine.

    So, how do household(家用的) {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (object) that are part of the Internet of things work? Well, think of a common chair, when connected to the Internet, the chair {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (warm) up when it knows the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold.

    So, picture this: you enter your home. The temperature changes to make you {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (feel) comfortable. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? It may happen sooner than you think.

The dragon is the fifth sign of the Chinese Zodiac (生肖). There are 12 Zodiac in Chinese culture. In fact, the Chinese dragon, also known as long, doesn't exist (存在). But Chinese people have loved it so much for {#blank#}1{#/blank#} of years.

Chinese Dragons play an {#blank#}2{#/blank#} role in Chinese culture. You can always find something about dragons when you are learning {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Chinese culture.

Emperors (皇帝) in ancient China were {#blank#}4{#/blank#} as the sons of dragons. Chinese dragons are the symbols of being lucky, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} and noble. But they are described as monsters in Western stories.

Chinese people believe dragons could control the weather. They live at the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} of seas, rivers, lakes or anywhere with water. In many {#blank#}7{#/blank#}, Chinese people perform a "dragon dance" to please the dragon king and make sure good weather and a good harvest. It was {#blank#}8{#/blank#} that a dragon helped Yandi and Huangdi open the prelude (序幕) to Chinese civilization (文明). So Chinese people call {#blank#}9{#/blank#} "descendants (子孙) of the long".

In the West, dragons also have a long history. What may be surprising, however, is that the dragons {#blank#}10{#/blank#} similar origins (起源). Both Eastern and Western records said dragons are like snakes.
