It’s March 12th. Li Li and Lin Tao are digging on a hill not far from their school. In China, people across the country plant trees 31 on this day.
The idea of planting trees was advocated(提倡) by Sun Yat-sen(孙中山), the great 32 in China’s history. He said more trees were needed as a 33 against flood(洪水) and drought. In 1915, Tree Planting Day was set on the same date as Tomb-Sweeping Day. Then, in 1979, the day was changed to March 12th, to 34 the date on which Sun Yat-sen died.
“Everyone has known the Great Wall of China,” says Li Li. “But have you 35 the Green Wall of China? That’s the biggest tree planting 36 of all.” The Gobi Desert was 37 every year. So in 1978, a tree planting project was started to 38 it spreading. The government and local farmers have been planting millions of trees to build a great green “wall” along the edge of the desert.
“Tree planting has become a tradition in China now,” says Lin Tao. “Almost everyone does it on March 12th. Many people also plant a tree on a 39 day. My parents planted a tree when I started school. And my cousin planted 40 on his wedding(婚礼) day. We do it for the environment and for ourselves.”

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Grain Rain(谷雨), as the last term in spring, starts on around April 20.

3 People in northern China have the tradition to eat the vegetable Toona sinensis during Grain Rain. As an old Chinese saying goes, “Toona sinensis before the rain is as tender as silk.” The vegetable is good for the stomach and skin.

Have you ever seen lions dancing in the streets? The lions dance to the beat of a drum(鼓). Of course, they are not real lions. They are dancers in lion costumes(服饰). Lion dancing first started in China centuries ago. It is meant to bring good luck in the coming year.
Usually, a lion is made up of two dancers. One dancer controls the head. The other controls the tail.
“I think of it as a sport,”says Anthony Huang, aged 16. He is a member of the New York Chinese Freemasons Athletic Club. Anthony performs(表演) as the lion’s head. It can weigh 20 pounds. Lion dancing is important to Anthony. “This tradition really lifts me up,”he says.
In the past, lion dancing was performed mostly by men. But it is different today. LionDanceMe is a lion dancing group in San Francisco, California. There are boys and girls on its team. They dance together. “Anyone can take up lion dancing. You have to believe that you can do it,”says Ananda Tang-Lee, a 17-year-old girl.
Lion dancing will continue to evolve. But a team’s sense of community will never change.“We call it a family,”Ananda says.“It’s really great, because we always have each other’s backs.”

In the southern part of China, eating qingtuan at the beginning of spring is a kind of tradition.
Chinese people started to eat it more than 1,000 years ago. It is made of sticky rice(糯米) and red bean paste(红豆沙), and is famous for its softness, freshness and sweetness. The secret behind its mouth-watering taste is one of its materials—mugwort leaves.
People in this area usually put qingtuan on the tombs(墓) of their dead family members to remember the past memory. Making qingtuan is also a chance for family members to get together at home. It really takes time and effort to make the snack.
Now, qingtuan has already spread its special taste to the northern part of China. Li Yuan, an engineer who grew up in Zhejiang Province, brought qingtuan back to Beijing where he works. “It tastes different in and out of my home town,”he said.“There’s no place like home.”
Qingtuan has many different fillings inside it, such as apples and bean milk, to meet customers’ tastes. The difference of the taste shows that it’s getting more and more popular across the whole country.
Even though there is warm weather and green leaves in spring, the season wouldn’t be complete without a taste of qingtuan.

A sign saying“Young Dogs for Sale”was placed by a shop owner above his door. This often attracts young children. A boy saw it and got closer to the owner.“How much are the young dogs?”he asked. The man replied, “From $30 to $50.”
The little boy took out some change.“I have $2.37. Can I look at them?”The man smiled and asked the helper to take out five tiny balls of fur(皮毛). Soon, the boy noticed a dog and asked, “What’s wrong with that little dog?”The man explained it didn’t have a hip socket and wouldn’t run.

“Now I’ll give you $2.37, and 50 cents a month until I pay up.” “But it will never run and jump and play with you like ordinary dogs!”
