While Reading 人教版：必修三 Unit 1 Festivals and celebrations WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS Festivals are celebrated all around the world. They have a wide range of origins, such as the seasons of the year, religions, famous figures, and important events. Every festival has its different customs and unique charms. However, no matter how different they may seem, all over the world, the spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace is common in all festivals. Of all the traditional festivals, the harvest festival can be found in almost every culture. This important agricultural festival takes place after all the crops have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of food. In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime—the Egyptian harvest season. It featured a parade and a great feast with music, dancing, and sports. Today, in some European countries, people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and get together to celebrate over a meal. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China, families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious mooncakes. Customs play a significant role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time.With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas, some traditions may fade away and others may be established. One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution. Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins. Festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with business taking advantage of the celebrations Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones. Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised, others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness. Festivals are an important part of society. They reflect people’s wishes, beliefs, faiths, and attitudes towards life. They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life, and forget about our work for a little while. They help us understand where we came from, who we are, and what to appreciate. And if you study festivals carefully, you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.

It is also known as the Chinese New Year. It falls on the first day of the lunar new year, which usually comes in late January or early February. The Spring Festival has a history of more than 4,000 years and is celebrated by Chinese people all over the world. Before the Spring Festival, people usually start to prepare for it. They clean their houses thoroughly to sweep away bad luck and welcome good luck. They also buy a lot of food, such as meat, fish, fruits and vegetables. In addition, people often buy new clothes for themselves and their families, as wearing new clothes on New Year’s Day is a tradition that symbolizes a new start. On New Year’s Eve, the whole family gathers together to have a big dinner, which is called the “Reunion Dinner”. The dinner usually includes a variety of delicious dishes, such as dumplings, fish and chicken. Dumplings are a traditional food for the Spring Festival, as their shape looks like ancient Chinese gold or silver ingots (锭), symbolizing wealth. Fish is also an important dish, because the Chinese word for “fish” sounds the same as the word for “surplus”, meaning prosperity. After dinner, the family usually watches the Spring Festival Gala on TV together. At midnight, people set off fireworks and firecrackers to welcome the new year. Fireworks and firecrackers make a loud noise, which is believed to scare away evil spirits and bring good luck. On New Year’s Day, people usually visit their relatives and friends to exchange greetings and wishes. Children are especially happy on this day because they can receive red envelopes with money from their elders, which symbolizes good luck and blessings. The Spring Festival is a time for family reunion, joy and celebration. It reflects the traditional culture and customs of China and is deeply loved by Chinese people. 16．When does the Spring Festival usually come? A．In late February or early March. B．In late January or early February. C．In late December or early January. D．In late March or early April. 17．Why do people clean their houses before the Spring Festival? A．To make their houses beautiful. B．To sweep away bad luck and welcome good luck. C．To prepare for the Reunion Dinner. D．To receive relatives and friends. 18．What does the fish symbolize in the Reunion Dinner? A．Wealth. B．Surplus and prosperity. C．Good health. D．Happiness. 19．What do children receive from their elders on New Year’s Day? A．New clothes. B．Delicious food. C．Red envelopes with money. D．Toys. Passage B The Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival in China. It usually falls between late January and early February according to the lunar calendar. The celebration lasts for 15 days, ending with the Lantern Festival. Preparations for the Spring Festival start weeks in advance. Families clean their houses thoroughly to “sweep away bad luck”. They also paste red couplets on the doors and hang red lanterns, as red symbolizes good fortune. Shopping for new clothes and food is another important part of the preparations. People buy ingredients for the New Year’s Eve dinner, which usually includes dumplings, fish, and other dishes with special meanings. For example, fish represents “surplus” in Chinese, implying a prosperous year ahead. On New Year’s Eve, family members gather for a grand dinner. After dinner, they stay up late to welcome the new year, a tradition called “shousui”. At midnight, firecrackers are set off to scare away evil spirits and welcome good luck. On the first day of the new year, people visit relatives and friends to exchange greetings and give red envelopes with money to children. The Spring Festival is a time for family reunion and spreading joy. It reflects the values of family and harmony deeply rooted in Chinese culture. 20．How long does the Spring Festival celebration last? A．One day. B．Seven days. C．Fifteen days.

Passage C     Double Ninth Festival is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which is a traditional festival first mentioned in records before the Eastern Han Dynasty. 24     Climbing Mountains People like to climb mountains on this festival, so Double Ninth Festival is also called “Mountain-climbing Festival”. The early ninth lunar month, with clear autumn sky and fresh air, is a good time for sightseeing. 25 It is really refreshing to climb mountains and enjoy the beauty of nature at this bright and clear time in autumn. Climbing mountains also indicates “climbing for a higher position”. Another reason why climbing mountains is valued by people, especially by the elderly is that it has a meaning of “climbing for longevity (长寿)”. Climbing mountains on Double Ninth Festival was already popular in the Tang Dynasty. 26     Drinking Chrysanthemum (菊花) Wine The chrysanthemum is usually in full blossom at the ninth lunar month, therefore, it is also named for “flower of longevity”. The chrysanthemum wine is unique in making. In ancient times, people usually picked fresh chrysanthemums and leaves on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, and made the mixture of them into the wine. 27 The wine is said to have great effects on the sharpness of eyes, loss of weight and decrease of stomach trouble, thus contributing to longevity.      28 The Double Ninth cake is also known as “the flower cake”. It is said that the cake was originally prepared after autumn harvests for farmers to have a taste of what was just in season, and it gradually grew into the present cake for people to eat on the Double Ninth Festival. A．Eating Double Ninth Cakes B．Making the “Flower Cake” with Friends C．A lot of poems were related to this custom. D．So people love to go sightseeing this month. E．It would not be drunk until the same day next year. F．Here are some traditional customs of the Double Ninth Festival. G．But few Chinese people are aware of the importance of the festival. 三、语法填空 Passage D Little New Year, also known 29 Xiao Nian, marks the beginning of the Spring Festival. It is a time of preparation and celebration, which rings out the old 30 rings in the new year. The date of the festival varies across China. In northern China, it falls on the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, while in southern China, it is celebrated on the 24th. The most significant custom is worshipping the Kitchen God. Legend has it that he 31 (watch) over the moral character of each household. On Little New Year, families burn a paper image of the god to send his spirit to Heaven 32 (report) to the Jade Emperor. People offer him sweet foods like malt candy and Guandong candy. It is believed that these sweets will seal his mouth or encourage him to only say good things about the family, 33 (ensure) a favorable report. Another essential tradition is house cleaning, also 34 (call) “sweeping the dust.” Families clean every corner of their homes. This symbolizes removing bad luck and old energy to make way for new 35 (bless). People also decorate their windows with colorful paper-cuttings, 36 often feature auspicious characters or animals. Little New Year is filled with joy. It carries the Chinese people’s 37 (deep) wishes for peace, prosperity, and family harmony. It is an indispensable part of the Spring Festival culture, reminding everyone that the most important festival of the year is on 38 way. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ TOPIC 8 Festivals and Customs 话题：节日与习俗 涉及教材： 人教版：必修三 Unit 1 Festivals and celebrations 外研版： 必修二Unit 2 Let's celebrate! 译林版：必修二 Unit 3 Festivals and customs 北师大版：必修一Unit 3 Celebrations 考察语篇形式： [2022·浙江1月考]应用文写作(“中国爱尔当文化节”活动中结识了爱尔兰朋友) [2022·全国乙卷]语法填空(国际茶日) [2021·浙江1月考]读后续写(万圣节发生的南瓜趣事) Preview: Getting to Know Thematic Words & Phrases Before Reading&Lead-in Q1: Describe a festival you have experienced.

It falls on the first day of the lunar new year, which usually comes in late January or early February. The Spring Festival has a history of more than 4,000 years and is celebrated by Chinese people all over the world. Before the Spring Festival, people usually start to prepare for it. They clean their houses thoroughly to sweep away bad luck and welcome good luck. They also buy a lot of food, such as meat, fish, fruits and vegetables. In addition, people often buy new clothes for themselves and their families, as wearing new clothes on New Year’s Day is a tradition that symbolizes a new start. On New Year’s Eve, the whole family gathers together to have a big dinner, which is called the “Reunion Dinner”. The dinner usually includes a variety of delicious dishes, such as dumplings, fish and chicken. Dumplings are a traditional food for the Spring Festival, as their shape looks like ancient Chinese gold or silver ingots (锭), symbolizing wealth. Fish is also an important dish, because the Chinese word for “fish” sounds the same as the word for “surplus”, meaning prosperity. After dinner, the family usually watches the Spring Festival Gala on TV together. At midnight, people set off fireworks and firecrackers to welcome the new year. Fireworks and firecrackers make a loud noise, which is believed to scare away evil spirits and bring good luck. On New Year’s Day, people usually visit their relatives and friends to exchange greetings and wishes. Children are especially happy on this day because they can receive red envelopes with money from their elders, which symbolizes good luck and blessings.
