From this, we can guess what envelope means! Subskill: Guessing unknown words The prefix im- means “not”. It is usually used to create adjectives that have a negative or opposite meaning to the base word, e.g. impossible. Prefix: im- We’re thinking of you this time of year, Wishing you happiness, joy, and cheer. May all your days be warm and bright, And your nights get better by holiday light. Enjoy your delicious holiday food, As parties and gifts create holiday moods. Favourite people play an important part, While beautiful songs warm your heart. Script The Double Ninth Festival Good morning, everyone! I’m Mike. Welcome back to Shenzhen Moments. After a busy week, Saturday has finally arrived. And today let’s celebrate a traditional Chinese festival known as Double-Ninth Day, or the Chongyang Festival. My friend from China told me what the name means. In Chinese, “nine” sounds much like “long”. According to an ancient Chinese book, The Book of Changes, nine is seen as yang energy. “Chong” means “double” in Chinese. The ninth day of the ninth lunar month is when two yang numbers meet, so the name “Chongyang Festival” was born. The festival falls in autumn around harvest time. It’s a great time to celebrate the harvest and to enjoy the cool weather with some outdoor activities. Many people go hiking or mountain climbing, and enjoy the autumn scenery before winter arrives. Script A good activity in Shenzhen is to climb Lianhua Mountain in the Futian district. The mountain park has beautiful gardens and many outdoor activities, like flying kites and martial arts. Script According to an ancient Chinese book, The Book of Changes, nine is seen as yang energy. The Book of Changes 易经 Difficult sentence The 9th day of the 9th lunar month is when two Yang numbers meet, so the name“ Chongyang Festival” was born. 农历九月初九意味着两个“阳”数同时出现，于是就有了“重阳节”这个名称。 Difficult sentence The Double Ninth Festival Good morning, everyone!
