Hello, everyone! It's my honor to speak here. Today I want to talk about my favorite traditional Chinese festival.
As is known to all, China is famousfor its rich and varied traditional festivals.Among those festivals, I like the SpringFestival best. The Spring Festival, which isone of the most significant traditionalfestivals in China, falls on the first day ofthe first lunar month. There are a variety ofactivities during the festival, such ascleaning and decorating the house, postingcouplets, having reunion dinners, receivingred packets, and so on. In addition, thereare also many other customs such asdragon dances and lion dances. Whilecelebrating the Spring Festival, familiescan not only reunite but also enjoy tradi?tional Chinese culture. That's why I like itbest.
That's all. Thanks for your listening!

(2)He is a bad boy with a“crystal”heart.He is also a pure idealist. He is kind with asimple dream. But his dream is also a kindof regret for his childhood: If there hadbeen a catcher in his childhood, he wouldhave run wildly, enjoying boundless joywithout fearing the dangers.

(1)Yes, he will. Not long after theyfinished the discussion, Holden walkedaround aimlessly. Smiling children, thegold rye and the brilliant sun, what themerriest thing in the world! Upon imagin?ing this picture, Holden wore a broadsmile on his face. He sat at random, in?dulging in his own world, no phonies, noloneliness, no vice, only children and him?self.“But, this world is so dirty, how can Ibecome a great catcher?”Holden said tohimself with a deep sigh. All of a sudden,an illumination of sunset appeared,warmth and comfort surrounding him atonce. He was fascinated so deeply by thissplendid sight, and it dawned on him in aninstant. Although there were vices anduntruths going widely around the world,there was still hope, purity and innocenceremaining.“I am not strong enough tochange the whole world, but I am able touphold my principles, to safeguard my rye,no matter how tiny it is!”an inner voicesprang from his heart, steady and ambi?tious. No escape, but acceptance. No com?plaint, but reconciliation. Maybe that isthe best answer for him.

Dear Patty,
I'm writing to introduce the Dragon Boat Festival which you're very interested in.
The Dragon Boat Festival is a tradi?tional Chinese holiday which falls on thefifth day of the fifth lunar month. Itsearliest origin is related to the fifth lunarmonth which was known to ancients as the“month of poison”. Therefore, the DragonBoat Festival was originally regarded as atraditional festival about medicine andhealth. It is traditionally a festival forpeople to come against diseases andpoisonous insects.
People usually celebrate the festivalby racing in long, thin boats shaped likedragons. Everyone paddles fast to thesound of drums. Families also eat specialrice snacks called zongzi. They are stickyrice with different fillings, wrapped in bam?boo leaves. It helps people feel close totheir history and each other.
I hope you will like it. And you cancome to celebrate it together with us if it isconvenient for you.
Yours,
Li Hua
