The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the two most important holidays in the Chinese calendar (the other being the Chinese Lunar New Year), and is a legal holiday in several countries. Farmers celebrate the end of the summer harvesting season on this date.Traditionally, on this day, Chinese family members and friends will gather to admire the bright mid-autumn harvest moon, and eat moon cakes and pomeloes together. It is also common to have barbecues outside under the moon, and to put pomelo rinds on ones head. Brightly lit lanterns are often carried around by children.

Together with the celebration, there appear some special customs in different parts of the country, such as burning incense, planting Mid-Autumn trees, lighting lanterns on towers, and fire dragon dances. Shops selling mooncakes, before the festival, often display pictures of Change, floating to the moon.

Mooncake is often eaten during the festival.Typical mooncakes are round or rectangular pastries, measuring about 10 cm in diameter and 4-5 cm thick. A thick pasty filling is surrounded by a relatively thin (2-3 mm) crust and may contain yolks from salted duck eggs. Mooncakes are rich, heavy, and dense compared with most Western cakes and pastries. They are usually eaten in small wedges accompanied by Chinese tea.

"A year ago, my son, Li Qiang, was seriously ill. He was so ill that he couldnt go to school. When Wang Lin learned it from the newspaper, he decided to do something to help my son.

He kept visiting my son and encouraged him. He helped him with his lessons once a week. They made good friends. With the help of Wang Lin, Li Qiang didnt feel lonely any more. Now Li Qiang has recovered. I am quite grateful to the boy for his kind help."

What a good Young Pioneer he is!

This summer, I had some special days. I joined dongzhou international educational exchange summer camp.

First, I will tell you about our foreign teachers, they are shrina and rebecca. They are friendly and beautiful. They are students at oxford university.

We talked about many things: famous people, subjects in england, different jobs, our deal days, western star signs, what can we say in a restaurant and so on.

We know lots of things, like what the difference is between “chef” and “cook”, all the parts of the body…

We tried to write a letter to principal zhang. We made a play and we drew our own comics and tried to sell it. We gave some other students english lessons, we taught them about chinese dragon, chinese martial arts and the olympics.

Every afternoon, we played exciting games: chinese whispers, tongue twisters, wheelbarrow, egg and spoon, three legs…

On the last day, we had a good time. We made black tea. We put tea bags, some milk and lots of water in to a big bowl, and then we stirred the tea until it became red and dark. Oh, it tasted good! later, we used eggs, flour and milk to make many pancakes. To cook them is very interesting. When we finished it, the pancakes looked round and nice. We put some jam on it. how delicious! I won’t ever forget it.

The summer camp is a really good chance for me. I know the local things in england. I learned a lot and like english more. I also know better ways to learn english well.

每天下午,我们玩激动人心的游戏:中国的低语,绕口令,手推车,鸡蛋和勺子,三条腿…

最后一天,我们有一个美好的时光。我们做了红茶。我们把茶包,一些牛奶和大量的水在一个大碗,然后我们搅拌茶,直到它变成了红色和黑色。哦,味道很好!之后,我们用鸡蛋、面粉和牛奶使许多煎饼。做饭是很有趣的。当我们完成它,煎饼四下看了看,不错。我们把一些果酱。多美味啊!我永远也不会忘记。

夏令营对我来说是一个很好的机会。我知道在英国当地的事情。我学到了很多,更喜欢英语。我也知道更好的方法来学好英语。
