【推荐2】Chinese Farmers’ Harvest (丰收) Festival is the first festival in China for farmers. It shows that our government is paying more attention to farming and farmers’ life. Our government is determined to build a better and more beautiful countryside with pleasant living environments and also a richer life for farmers.

The festival, starting from 2018, falls on Autumn Equinox (秋分) each year. Auturnnal Equinox is one of the 24 solar terms (节气) of the Chinese lunar calendar and usually falls between September 22 and 24, during the country’s harvest season. Though weather and harvest time are not the same in different areas of China, most crops mature (成熟) in autumn. Autumn Equinox is the best time to celebrate harvest.

“The farmers are encouraged to think of their own ways to celebrate harvest,” an official named Han Deng said. “Some activities will be held nationwide, but most of the celebrations will take place at a local level derived from (源于) local customs,” he said, adding that local governments could host different kinds of activities for the festival, such as folk culture performances, food tasting and sightseeing.

Relax and breathe.

Whether it is a business meeting or a first date, the first thing you must do is to relax. When you relax, you are in control. You control your reactions（反应） and your reactions don’t control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more relaxed. This will help us what you have already known about how to communicate well.

Think and you will be prepared.

Have you heard the old saying, “Think before you speak”? Well, it rings true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow(流畅), you will be better prepared , more relaxed and more confident(自信的).

Follow the flow of the conversation.

If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, you should follow through with small talk until a common topic appears.

A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this, they will keep the conversation going, thinking very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you try your best, you will be successful.

A group of emperor penguins crowd together to keep warm, using stop-and-go movements to protect themselves from the winds. Can you see the connection?

Emperor penguins move like cars in traffic jams to keep warm, according to a new research. A penguin only needs to move 2cm in any direction for its neighbor to do the same thing. These movements then flow(涌动) through the whole group of penguins like a "traveling wave".

These waves also help the smaller crowds join bigger groups, keeping more and more of their friends warm. A single Antarctic "traffic jam" has thousands of penguins. Interestingly, the technology once used for studying road traffic jams was used to study the penguins. It included studying time-lapse(延时) videos. Scientists also discovered that unlike on the road, these waves can be made by any penguin and in any direction.

With temperatures usually dropping 50 degrees below zero and winds reaching speeds of up to 200km/h, these traveling waves are very important for penguins to keep warm.

These penguins can also teach us a lesson. In a big group, they learn to be orderly and patient, and never to crash into each other. These are skills that we should all learn from them when we are on the road!
