The first Dragon Boat Festival was held (举行) in Hunan. Every year, people always have a dragon boat match (比赛). The dragon boat is quite long. There are pictures of dragons on each side. The front of the boat is like the head of a dragon. Each team of the match has twenty members. Besides them there is a man on the boat. He beats a drum (敲鼓). It’s an exciting match, especially (特别是) when they are getting the end. The audience (观众) beside the lake shout for their favourite teams. From this match, we have the name of the festival-Dragon Boat Festival.
This special festival has another name Duanwu Festival. It has a story. The story is about a poet (诗人) called Qu Yuan.

The Spring Festival was on February 16th this year. On the eve of the Spring Festival, we had a big dinner. After dinner, I put on my new clothes and went out to watch fireworks. Wow! How colourful and beautiful they were! So we took some photos. After that we went home happily. At twelve o'clock, we cheered to welcome New Year and wished each other good luck. During the Spring Festival, I got lots of red packets. My favorite festival is the Spring Festival.
