Our English teacher Mrs. Wang let us do an English project—researching the Chinese traditional festivals. Here are two groups' reports about it.
The subject we've chosen is Lantern Festival. We've collected much information about the festival by doing some reading in the library. Lantern Festival has a history of about 2, 000 years. It's celebrated on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. People get together to enjoy colorful lanterns and play riddle (谜语) games. Small gifts are usually offered when they get right answers. It's a tradition to eat tangyuanon this special day. As for the next step, we will make our own lanterns and make some English riddles. This will help us understand the meaning of the festival better. | Linda: |
We learned about Dragon Boat Festival. To do the research, we searched for information online and visited a local museum about culture and customs. We've learned a lot about the festival. With a history of about 2,000 years, Dragon Boat Festival falls on the 5th day of the fifth lunar month. People usually celebrate it by watching boat races. Zongziis the most traditional food that is eaten to honour the great poet Qu Yuan. Next, we plan to learn how to make zongzi, and produce an English video to make the festival known by more people around the world. | John: |
A. his B. family C. not D. and E. so F. names |
In ancient(古代的) China, people(人) have three names: the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} name, given name, and courtesy name(字).
Look at Li Bai, his family name is Li, his given name is Bai and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} courtesy name is Taibai. Some people call him Li Bai, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} some people call him Li Taibai.
When do people use their given {#blank#}4{#/blank#} and courtesy names? When(当……的时候) people are at home, they usually use their given names. But when they are {#blank#}5{#/blank#} at home, people use their courtesy names.
"How are you?" is a friendly greeting. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} It often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks "How are you?" expects to hear the answer "Fine" even if the person isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine" isn't really an answer. They are common ways of saying "hello" or "hi".
Sometimes, people don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?", the other person may be thinking "No, I don't. " It isn't polite to disagree strongly, so he might say, "I'm not so sure. " {#blank#}2{#/blank#}
People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, "I've got to go now, " or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as "Someone is at the door. " {#blank#}3{#/blank#} he person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say so. An excuse doesn't hurt the other person's feelings.
Whether they are greeting each other or ending a conversation, people often don't say exactly what they are thinking. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
A. The excuse may be real, or not. B. If you disagree with others, they will hate you. C. However, "How are you?" is also an unusual question. D. This is a nice way to say that you don't agree with someone. E. This is one way of being nice to people, and it's a part of the game of language. |
