Water Festival is celebrated in different places in the world. Let’s take a look at how some Asian countries celebrate the holiday. In China, Water Festival is a big holiday for minority groups (少数民族). During the festival, they have a few days off from work.

The boy answered that it appeared on the face in the morning, on the chest (胸部) at noon and on the feet at night. So, Indian people wash these body parts during their Water Festival to wash away their bad luck. Myanmar (缅甸) people celebrate the traditional Water Festival to welcome the new year. Mote lone yay paw, a typical food of Water Festival, will be offered to people passing by on streets.

However, he used to do many bad things in his village. When he was young, Zhou was very tall and strong. He behaved very badly and always bullied (欺凌) the villagers. At that time, the villagers thought there were “three scourges (祸害)”— the man-eating tiger in the southern mountain, the dragon under the water and Zhou Chu. They always ran away as soon as they saw Zhou Chu. After knowing about that, Zhou decided to help them kill the tiger and the dragon. ________ Finally, after three days and nights, he made it. On the fourth day, Zhou Chu came back to the village, thinking that he would be a hero. But everyone was happy, singing and dancing, because they thought that all “three scourges” were gone forever. But when they saw him coming back, they all felt disappointed (失望). He felt sad and went to a wise and learned man called Lu Yun for help. He said, “I used to do many bad things and waste most of my time. Now I have realized my mistakes. I want to correct them and be a better man, but I’m afraid it’s too late.” Lu Yun told him, “Don’t worry. You have such a great determination (决心), so there is hope for your future.” From then on, Zhou Chu studied hard under Lu Yun’s teaching.

After the festival, the temperature rises and rainfall increases. And then farmers begin to grow crops. As a festival, Qingming is believed to have a history of about 2,500 years. The most important tradition of Qingming is to honor ancestors (祖先) and remember the dead family members. So Qingming is also called Tomb-Sweeping Day. When sweeping the graves, people pray, clean the tombstones and burn offerings, usually paper money, paper clothes, paper houses and now even a paper phone. Lots of ancient poets expressed their sad feelings with words. One of the most famous poems describing the festival was the poem Qingming by Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty as follows: A drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day; The mourner’s heart is going to break on his way. “Where can a wine shop be found to drown my sad hours?” A cowherd points to a cot amid apricot flowers. Some traditions of Qingming have brought such problems as traffic jams and air pollution or even forest fires.
