Do you know the Dragon Boat Festal? It's on May the fifth. It's a traditional festival in China. And the Dragon Boat festival is in memory of a Chinese poet, QuYuan. People in China usually have a big meal with family on the Dragon Boat Festival. And they usually eat rice dumplings. Rice dumpling is also called Zongzi. It is a kind of rice dumpling wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. In the past people threw rice dumplings into the river to feed the fish so that they would not eat QuYuan's body. Dragon boat racing is the most exciting activity during the Dragon Boat Festival. Children all enjoy watching the Dragon boat racing very much. A dragon boat looks like a dragon, and is painted in red, white, yellow or black. A dragon boat is 20 to 40 meters long and need twenty people to row. The Dragon Boat Festival is very interesting.

Mr. and Mrs. Red want to go hiking this weekend. They bought a lot of things for the hiking a few days ago.

First, they each bought a pair of hiking shoes. Mr. Red's feet are much bigger than Mrs. Red's. He wears size 42 shoes! Mrs. Red just wears size 36 shoes.

Second, they bought a tent for camping. There were two tents in the shop. One was green with a big window. The other was brown with two small windows. The green one was bigger but shorter than the brown one. Mr. Red is very tall, he is 1. 8 metres. And Mrs. Red likes watching the beautiful mountains. She thought two windows were much better. Finally they bought one. Which tent did they buy? Can you guess?
