Read Para.1
Why does the writer say “… the calendar also
follows the sun"?
The months of the traditional Chinese calendar follow the moon, but did you know that the calendar also follows the sun? In fact, the year is divided into 24 parts, based on where the sun is in the sky. Each part starts with a solar term, or jieqi in Chinese. These solar terms follow the changes of the seasons and the weather.
The“Start of Spring”(立春),
“Start of Summer”,
“Start of Autumn” and “Start of Winter” divide the year into four seasons. Each of the seasons is then divided into six parts, and each part lasts about 15 days. The solar terms can fall on different dates. They sometimes move a day or two.
