DearTed,
Yours,

Thank you for inviting me to talk about one of China’s traditional festivals at the lecture. I’d like to go and share what I know about the Spring Festival.
As you know, there’re many traditional festivals in China, the most important of which is the Spring Festival. In different areas of China, the festival is celebrated in different ways. But lighting fireworks and eating dumplings are the most popular choices during the festival.
I think some knowledge about the Spring Festival will help foreign students learn more about Chinese culture. And I believe the students will be interested in this festival and look forward to taking part in the activity.
THANK YOU !
