Welcome to the Chinese culture tour. Now allow me to introduce one of the Chinese traditional festivals—the Spring Festival.
The Spring Festival falls in January or February. It is a time for family members to get together. On the eve of the Spring Festival, all family members enjoy different kinds of food, such as dumplings and fish. We also watch the Spring Festival Gala and stay up late. During the festival, people visit their relatives and friends and wish each other good luck for the new year. Children can often get lucky money from the elders.
The Spring Festival is the biggest day of year. It means a new start. And we can enjoy love and happiness.
That's all. Thanks for listening.
