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).
