It is your turn to help now.” I promised, but I didn’t know how busy the day would be. When I arrived, grandma was laying out mooncakes, fruit, and tea on a small table in the garden. She smiled and said she was excited because our relatives would come soon. I helped her clean the chairs and tie lanterns on the tree. It was a little difficult for me. I took a toolbox. With the help of my cousins, the job was done. The lanterns looked magical when the sun began to set. Later, my cousin asked me, “Do you think the moon will be bright tonight?” I said, “I think that it will, because the sky is so clear.” Grandma heard us and told a story about Chang’e. I had heard it before, but this time I listened carefully. I suddenly understood why she admired the tradition so much. It wasn’t only about food. It was about family warmth. After dinner, the children played games. The adults talked about what had happened in the past days. And I became the one who helped in the kitchen, which made me proud.

Many schools celebrate Grandparents’ Day with fun events. Students find interesting ways to 31 the day with their grandparents. Most grandparents do not actually care much about the events—they simply want to spend time with their grandchildren. You can 32 outside or inside, like going to activities at parks or watching movies at home. Of course, the best Grandparents’ Day activity 33 needs you to be with them. Grandparents sometimes get cards or gifts on Grandparents’ Day. For them, a thank-you card would be perfect. You may 34 ask your grandparents to teach you their skills, like playing chess or fishing. If your grandparents like taking a walk in a park, just join them. Besides, why not try making one of their favorite dishes? That would make them 35 !

I visited my grandma in the countryside this Mid-Autumn Festival as usual. Before I left, my mom said, “Remember to be polite and help your grandma. It is your turn to help now.” I promised, but I didn’t know how busy the day would be. When I arrived, grandma was laying out mooncakes, fruit, and tea on a small table in the garden. She smiled and said she was excited because our relatives would come soon. I helped her clean the chairs and tie lanterns on the tree. It was a little difficult for me. I took a toolbox. With the help of my cousins, the job was done. The lanterns looked magical when the sun began to set. Later, my cousin asked me, “Do you think the moon will be bright tonight?” I said, “I think that it will, because the sky is so clear.” Grandma heard us and told a story about Chang’e. I had heard it before, but this time I listened carefully. I suddenly understood why she admired the tradition so much. It wasn’t only about food. It was about family warmth. After dinner, the children played games. The adults talked about what had happened in the past days. And I became the one who helped in the kitchen, which made me proud. At last, my grandma asked me to take a photo of the family. I did, and she said the photo would remind me of this night in the future. On the way back, I promised myself to treasure every Mid-Autumn Festival. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 26．Where did the writer spend the Mid-Autumn Festival? A．At school. B．In the city. C．In the countryside.
