THE INTRODUCTION
Task 1 Listen and fill in the blanks
In ancient time, there was a great poet called Qu Yuan. He couldn't bear the anguish when his mother land was invaded, so he drowned himself in the river.

Later people memorialized Qu's patriotism by rowing and making Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival, Duanwujie. That's how the tradition of dragon boat racing and eating Zongzi were started.
