I absolutely enjoyed the archery, too, but the horse races were my favourite part. I’m finally back home now, feeling very tired but celebrating Naadam with my friend was totally worth it. Reading for language features I experienced the Naadam Festival in China's Inner  Mongolia Autonomous Region for the first time this year. The festival falls on the fourth day of the six month of the lunar calendar, usually lasting for three days. Naadam means "games" in Mongolian, and it is represented by three events: horse racing, wrestling, and archery, which are all so exciting to watch! 1). How does the writer express the date of the festival? 2). What would be included in the following paragraphs? 3). What did the writer think of the things? Activity 3 Reading for details On the first day, I set off to the games early with my friend Burin. I saw a lot of people wearing fancy Mongolian robes. Some were feeding their horses, some were practising archery, and others were chatting or taking photographs. Burin told me that Mongolians travel every year from near and far to attend the festival, just as their ancestors had done for centuries. 1). What were people doing when I arrived at the game? 2). Was the writer describing a person, a place or a scene to us in this paragraph? Describe a vivid scene for us. Activity 3 Reading for details After the opening ceremony and some amazing performances, the wrestling competition began. Mongolian wrestling is different from the wrestling in the Olympic Games. There are no rounds, and wrestlers are not separated by weight. The wrestler loses if any part of his body above his knee touches the ground. After singing some songs, the competitors danced onto the green field, waving their arms in the air as if they were eagles. I was quite moved by their show of strength and grace. 1). How did the competitors appear onto the green field? 2). How did I feel? Activity 3 Reading for details Brainstorm (5 min) Students work together to brainstorm ideas for writing.

He invited me back for the winter to stay in a traditional Mongolian tent and eat hot pot. I can’t wait. Are these two sentences about the Naadam Experience? Not really.
