I’m Li Shan from China. The Spring Festival is very important in my country. Like Christmas, it h    1     every year, but not on the same day. It u    2     comes in February, but sometimes it comes in January. I’ve got some photos of it. Have a look at t    3    !

Here’s the first one! It’s a few days b    4     the Spring Festival. My mother’s cleaning our house and s    5     away bad luck. Look at the food on the table! We always buy a lot of food before the festival.

Oh, I love this photo. We are celebrating the Spring Festival with a traditional family d    6     on the evening before the Spring Festival.

There’s so m    7     delicious food. I am eating jiaozi—a kind of dumpling. After the dinner, we usually w    8     a special programme on TV.

In this photo, my parents and I are visiting my uncles and aunts. We are wearing n    9     sweaters and coats. I a    10     get a hongbao. It means lucky money.

How are you? I had great fun last Wednesday,     1     12^th, June. It was a traditional Chinese festival called the Dragon Boat Festival that day. This festival is in memory of Qu Yuan, one of     2     greatest Chinese poets. He killed himself by jumping into the Miluo River on May 5^th of the lunar calendar (农历), 278 BC. People there rowed the boats to     3     (save) him. But it was too late. They were very sad and then threw rice into the     4     to feed the fish so that they would stay away from his body.

    5     then on, every year on this day, people enjoy     6     (eat) Zongzi which is made of rice with meat, eggs and so on. In the past, we ate it only     7     (one) a year, but now we regard it as our daily food. We can have it any time we like.

Have you ever     8     (watch) the dragon boat race on TV? It is another important part of this festival. Several teams row their dragon-shaped boats as     9     (fast) as they can. The first team to reach the finish line wins.

If you have a plan to visit China next year, would     10     (your) like to spend this festival with us?

【推荐3】Are you good at writing? I’m not. I am a poor writer. I read a lot but I can't write very     1    (好地). Every year when Thanksgiving     2    (来), I get unhappy. Because Mom asks me to write Thanksgiving cards to my       3    (老师), my grandparents, my uncles and my aunts. Mom keeps saying,“Please write something     4    (来自)the bottom of your heart.”

I can sit in front of my table for an hour without writing even one     5    (单词). Often mom is unhappy and asks me to finish it quickly. So I get an idea. I secretly take     6    (一些)thank-you cards from Mom’s     7    (桌子)and copy(抄)what mom writes. When mom comes back, I finish     8    (全部)the cards. Before Mom can say anything I     9    (放置) the cards in the envelopes and seal(封)them. “Good job, dear!”Mom always says. Then I run to the park to have a     10    (大的)play.
