(2024·福州九县一中高一期中)Diwali (Deepavali) is a festival of lights observed in October or November each year in India. During the festival, various community groups, businesses, schools and associations celebrate it in different ways.Some companies have Diwali dinners and some communities organize gatherings that feature firework displays, dances, street lighting, and plays.
Many women wear fine jewelry and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali.Some women and girls use Mehendi, a dye decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and then they will finally get colorful hand paintings. Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香料).Various lights, candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes, particularly in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in India but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities.There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some Indian businesses may close early on Diwali.
Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honor Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons(light over darkness). At the same time, every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright.
Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”. As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”, the festival symbolizes the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness.

A heart attack led Ivan Markov to take up gardening on a small patch (小块土地) in front of his council flat.Now, he's spreading his love of nature across south London.
Markov grew up on Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea, and learned to love nature in these tropical zones.In 2007, he moved to Lewisham, south-east London, to work as a teacher.Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with heart failure in 2010.During the treatment and recovery, he read about a local award for the best garden, and though he only had a front garden outside his flat, he thought the competition would be something to work towards.He worked on his patch for most of the year, planting seeds and plants, such as flowers, berries and herbs.Surprisingly, he won the best front garden prize.“I couldn't believe it,” he says.“I nearly fell off my seat.”
That was the start.Markov created a community nursery (苗圃) at the side of his house, and started planting bushes across the road.“I had so much beauty in my garden,” he says.“I wanted to share what I had.” He started offering guide to others.News of Markov's green-fingered selflessness began to spread.“I go to someone's property and give them advice on how to plant a garden,” he says.He delivers cuttings and seeds and helps people report plants, but everything he does is free.To date, Markov has helped six neighbourhoods embrace sustainable gardening.
He wants to show people you don't have to live in the country to create beauty.“It doesn't matter how much space you have.Outside my place there's a tiny square, tiny.I grow tomatoes there for my supper.The opportunities are endless.”
Gardening gives Markov “the feeling of creating something from nothing and so much pleasure”.His dream is to create more green areas.Markov is making this corner of south-east London a paradise for all.

It is universally believed that playing an instrument or singing in a choir may boost your brain. Generations of parents have told their children to practice their musical instruments. Parents have good reasons to keep on top of their children's musical education, since learning an instrument is not only associated with better educational achievement but also cognition (认知) and even intelligence scores in children. But does this musicality contribute to better cognition later in life
A new study in the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry investigated this question by asking middle-aged and older people to complete a questionnaire on their lifetime musical experience before completing cognitive tests. The results showed that musical people had better memory and ability to stay focused on tasks and plans than those with less or no musicality.
But how about being musical without playing an instrument According to the study findings, singing can result in better executive (决策的) function but not memory, suggesting that playing an instrument has additional brain health benefits. Why singing would help us with our executive function is not clear and requires further investigation. However, singing has a strong social benefit when done in choirs, and there is good evidence that being involved in social activity is good for our brain health.
Playing an instrument or singing seems to have benefits to our brain health in ageing, according to the study. What is yet to be established is whether this would also help prevent future cognitive decline (下降) or dementia.The study provides no evidence for this yet and it is also not clear how the findings apply to the general population, since most people in the study were female, well-educated and well-off.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了音乐活动,特别是演奏乐器和参加合唱团唱歌,对大脑健康的影响。
28.What does the new study center on
A.The cognition improvement by singing in a choir.
B.Musical people's ability of keeping focused on tasks. 
C.Academic progress of children playing an instrument.
D.Musicality's effect upon better cognition later in life.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But does this musicality contribute to better cognition later in life?”及第二段中的“A new study...investigated this question”可知,这项新研究的重点是音乐性对以后更好的认知能力的影响。
29.Who might improve most in memory according to the passage
A.Catherine who sings in a choir.
B.Sam who was born in a music family.
C.Mary who played the piano for years.
D.Jack who is eager to get music education.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The results showed that musical people had better memory and ability to stay focused on tasks and plans than those with less or no musicality.”及第三段前两句可推知,弹了多年钢琴的玛丽的记忆力最有可能提高。
30.What does the underlined word “established” mean in paragraph 4
A.Proved. B.Started.
C.Announced. D.Admitted.
A 解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“The study provides no evidence for this yet and it is also not clear...were female, well-educated and well-off.”并结合画线词所在句可知,画线词established意为“证明”,与A项意思相同。
31.What is the author's attitude towards the findings of the study
A.Objective. B.Opposed.
C.Unclear. D.Supportive.
A 解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段内容可知,作者既指出了这项研究积极的一面,也提到了它的不足之处。由此可推知,作者持有客观的态度。
D
It's a common debate between couples—the perfect temperature to keep both warm but not hot.And the temperature's setting often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men about the “correct” temperature.Research does often show women prefer a higher indoor temperature, compared with men.But why do women feel the cold more
With the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat.Women also have more fat between the skin and the muscles, so the skin feels colder, as it's slightly further away from blood vessels.Women also tend to have a lower metabolic (新陈代谢) rate than men, which reduces heat production ability during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops.Additionally, the hormones mainly found in women make women's hands, feet and ears stay around three degrees Celsius cooler than men's.
The phenomenon that women prefer warmer temperatures isn't unique to humans.Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and the young stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight.Male bats prefer to rest at the cool, high peaks of mountains, while females remain in the warmer valleys.Female mammals may have developed a preference for warmer climates to encourage them to rest with offspring (幼崽) during stages when the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature.So the difference between heat-sensing systems may provide an advantage.
Couples choosing separate blankets is one way to overcome the differences in temperature preferences.In the workplace, personal comfort systems are heating systems that heat or cool and can be locally placed in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs.Examples include small desk fans, heated chairs and blankets, or footwarmers.These provide individualised thermal comfort (热舒适) to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space, and have been found to produce higher comfort satisfaction in the workplace.

34.Why does the author mention the studies on birds and mammals
A.To show their preference for cold.
B.To provide more evidence for the findings.
C.To introduce the system of keeping warm.
D.To inform us of a new scientific debate.

Dora Kellert was the school's spelling bee champion, winner of the reading contest at the public library three summers in a row and the playground grand champion in chess.She was a straight-A student.
Though Dora was talented, she was no good at sports.She could not figure out in which direction to kick the soccer ball.She was no good at baseball or basketball either.It wasn't until last year, when she was eleven years old, that she learned how to ride a bike.And even then she had to use training wheels.
“I'll never be good at sports,” she thought one day as she lay on her bed staring at the shelf her father had made to hold her trophies (奖杯).“How I wish I could win something, anything, even marbles (弹珠).”
At the word “marbles”, she sat up, “That's it.Maybe I could be good at playing marbles.” She jumped out of bed and found a can full of her brother's marbles.“Yes,” she thought.“I could play marbles, and marbles is a sport.” At that moment she realized that she had only three weeks to practice.The playground championship was coming up.She had a lot to do.
To strengthen her wrists (腕关节), she decided to do twenty push-ups on her fingertips, five at a time.By the end of the first set she was breathing hard.She did one more set and decided that was enough push-ups for the first day.She squeezed (握) a rubber eraser one hundred times, hoping it would strengthen her thumb (大拇指). This seemed to work because the next day her thumb was painful. She could hardly hold a marble in her hand, so Dora rested that day and listened to her brother's tips on how to shoot.
After school the next day she practiced three hours straight. After practice, she squeezed the eraser for an hour. Practice, practice, and practice. Squeeze, squeeze, and squeeze. Dora got better and even beat her brother for the first time.

One possible version:
Time flew and soon came the big day. Thanks to her three weeks' intensive training as well as her brother's timely tips, Dora beat her first opponent with ease.After three rounds, Dora fought her way into the final, where she would compete for the championship with a girl named Vicky, a so-called “marble queen”.Clenching the shining marbles she won from the fellow competitors, Dora smiled an invisible smile and murmured “Well begun is half done.” Whistle blowing, game began.Vicky seemed dead serious and not even looked at Dora.So it was with Dora.Focused, aimed, shot and won.Though it was a narrow win, Dora did beat the “marble queen” and won her dreaming trophy.
Dancing home, Dora carefully placed the trophy in the middle of the shelf. Throwing herself into the bed, Dora couldn't help sobbing softly, mainly of her fulfilled dream, partly of the aching knees and swollen thumb.“Thank you, my dear thumb.” Dora kissed her thumb gently, just like an old friend.Lying on bed and staring at the opposite shelf lined with trophies, Dora suddenly had a bold idea.“Why not try the bike race next year I am not a bookworm; I have sports cells too.” Seemingly this 12-year-old girl forgot all the sufferings she had gone through during the past three weeks.But without a big dream one would never fly high.Period 4 Reading for Writing

答案:A
This is the first time that I have spent the Naadam Festival with my friend Burin in China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region this year.The festival 1.represented(represent) by horse racing,wrestling and archery falls on the fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, 2.which usually lasts for three days.
Of the three events, two have left a deep 3.impression(impress) on me:wrestling and horse racing.Mongolian wrestling is different from that in the Olympic Games.There are no rounds, and wrestlers are not separated 4.by weight.The wrestler loses if any part of his body above his knee touches the ground.As for horse racing, it is 5.amazing(amaze) to see that the riders are boys and girls.That is because children are 6.lighter(light) and the horses can run faster and farther.There is no need 7.to worry(worry) about their safety, for they 8.have been riding(ride) horses all their lives.9.It is no wonder that people say “Horses are at the heart of Mongolian culture”.
Though I am tired now, celebrating Naadam with my friend is 10.totally(total) worth it.

语音同化
语音同化是英语发音中的一个重要现象。语流中两个邻近的不同的音,其中一个受到另一个的影响而变得跟另一个相同或相近的现象,叫做同化。
语音同化发生的形式可以分为几种,依据两个音被影响的方向,可分为“顺行同化”“逆行同化”“交互同化”;清浊同化是被同化音的清浊属性发生清化或浊化, 变得和同化音一致;同化的形式还可分为完全同化和部分同化。
同化现象 说 明 示 例
顺行同化 后音受相邻前音影响发生改变 on the house/ n ha s/→/ n n ha s/
逆行同化 前音受相邻后音影响发生变化 white pepper/waIt'pep /→/waIp'pep /
交互同化 又叫双重同化,指前音与后音相互影响形成第三个音 meet you /mi t ju /→/mi t u /would you/w d ju /→/w d u /
清浊同化 浊辅音变清或清辅音变浊 news/nju z/→newspaper/'nju speIp /dog/d ɡ/+s/s/→dogs/d ɡz/ 
完全同化 同化音和被同化音变得完全相同 in Mexico/In'meksIk /→/Im'meksIk /speed boat/spi d b t/→/spi bb t/  
部分同化 发音部位一致,但发音方法并不完全相同 in bed /in bed/→/in bed/green park/ɡri n pɑ k/→/ɡri n pɑ k/

The summer heat hit me as soon as I got off the flight.No wonder people from Rio take a week off for this happy occasion.I could feel it already—the Carnival was in the air!
To experience the spirit of the Carnival for myself, I went to a street party.Luckily, I arrived just in time—the show was about to begin as I took my place in the merry crowd.I could see a group of around 20 Brazilian dancers and a band in fancy costumes standing in the street.Some of them carried flags, which blew in the wind.The crowd waited with excitement.
Then there was an explosion of bright colours and lively music, and the group jumped into action.The band started playing an energetic samba beat, the dancers twisted and turned, and the crowd began to cheer,clap and sing.The whole group started marching down the street.The Carnival current carried us through the ever-growing sea of people, dancing all the way.Iceboxes of soft drinks and beer lined the narrow streets, and the smell of roasted meat filled the air as we passed wave after wave of street stands.I was so caught up in the party fever that I hardly noticed five hours fly by!
Even as I lay in bed that evening, the bright colours and lively music were still swimming all around me.What an amazing first day in Rio!

(2024·温州环大罗山联盟高一期中)St.Patrick's Day, Ireland's National Day, is celebrated on 17th March every year, marking the anniversary of the day on which Saint Patrick passed away.St.Patrick is the most famous saint of Ireland.Born in Roman Britain, he was enslaved in Ireland at the age of 16, but he successfully escaped.Later, he returned to Ireland and brought his religious beliefs to its people.
On St. Patrick's Day, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon.People would dance, drink, and feast on traditional meals of Irish bacon and cabbage.The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for over 1,000 years.
Interestingly, however, the first parade held to celebrate St. Patrick's Day took place not in Ireland but in the United States.On 17th March 1762, Irish soldiers serving in the English army marched through New York City.Along with their music, the parade helped the soldiers reconnect with their Irish roots, as well as with fellow Irishmen serving in the English army.
Over 100 St.Patrick's Day parades happen across the U.S., with New York City and Boston hosting the biggest.In 1848, New York Irish Aid societies joined to create the official New York City St.Patrick's Day Parade, the world's oldest civilian (平民的) parade and the largest in the U.S. It draws over 150,000 participants and nearly 3 million spectators (观众), lasting over five hours.Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Savannah also celebrate the day with major parades.
Today, people of all backgrounds celebrate St. Patrick's Day, especially throughout the United States, Canada and Australia.It is also celebrated in many other locations far from Ireland, including Japan, Singapore, and Russia.

The Three Pirates
Excerpt from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
INCLUDEPICTURE "英语必修3名师讲名著RJ.TIF" INCLUDEPICTURE "英语必修3名师讲名著RJ.TIF" \* MERGEFORMAT
聪明顽皮的汤姆·索亚与好友们扮演成海盗,为摆脱枯燥无味的功课、虚伪的教义和呆板的生活环境而离家出走。他们在杰克逊岛上追逐、嬉戏打闹的情景,充分展现了他们对自由自在、无拘无束的生活的向往。
  Tom now felt hopeless① again. He felt that no one cared about② him anymore. He didn't want to be a bad boy; it's just that people gave him no choice③. How can someone be good without love So Tom decided that it wasn't his fault④ that he was the way he was. It was everyone else's fault.
He left the village, imagining⑤ that he would never return. After walking quite a long way, he found his good friend, Joe Harper. Joe seemed to be feeling pretty⑥ terrible himself. When Tom told him that he was planning on travelling the world looking for new and exciting adventures⑦, Joe said that he had had the same idea.
He was angry because his mother had hit him for no reason. He didn't feel that she loved him or wanted him anymore, so he ran away.
The boys decided that since⑧ they had both lost their families, they would have to be a family now. Just the two of them: Tom and Joe, friends and brothers forever. So, now they had to plan what⑨ they would do next.   After a few moments, they agreed to become pirates⑩. Near the village, at the widest part of the Mississippi River (密西西比河), was a small island, about one mile wide. Tom and Joe decided to make this their new home. It was totally empty of people and there were lots of trees, so no one would be able to see them from the shore . It was the perfect secret hiding place for pirates.
While looking at the island , they met Huckleberry Finn who agreed to join them. They planned to meet at 12 o'clock that night and take a small boat over to the island. Tom brought some meat, a compass , and his knife with him. He waited for his friends up on a hill above the river. It was a very quiet night, so he started to whistle . Then he heard someone whistle the same song somewhere down the hill, saying: “Hey! Who's that?”
“I'm Tom Sawyer, the famous Black Pirate! And who am I talking to?”
“Huck Finn, the Red-Handed and Joe Harper, the Destroyer of the Seas.”
“Do you know the secret word?”
“Blood!”
“OK, wait for me, I'm coming down.” Tom said as he started walking down the hill. Once they were together, they looked at what everyone had brought. Joe had some meat with him and Huck had brought his tobacco .
Then to build a fire, they decided to steal some firewood from one of the riverboats, but just in case someone had stayed behind to guard the boat, they were very careful when they went aboard . Once they had the firewood, the pirates got on the little boat. At one point they could see the village they would leave forever . Tom was happy to be leaving it. A couple of hours later, they landed on the shore of the island. The first thing they did was hide their boat and find a place to keep their food safe from the animals. They decided not to build a shelter for themselves, as they liked the idea of sleeping outside, like real pirates. Later that evening, after dinner, they relaxed around a fire. Huck took out his tobacco and started rolling a cigarette . Huck lay back and began to smoke. After a couple of minutes of silence, he asked: “So, what exactly do pirates do?” Tom was the first to answer: “Well, Huck. They steal treasure from ships and kill the sailors, except for the women.”
Soon they all became tired, but the only person to really sleep was Huckleberry. The other two pirates were feeling a little guilty about having stolen the meat, the boat, and the firewood. They agreed never to take anything of anybody else's in the future.

Knowing that you are interested in the Lantern Festival, I am writing to tell you something about it.
The Lantern Festival is regarded as the most recreational among all the Chinese festivals and a day for appreciating the bright full moon and family reunion.It falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month.There is a wide range of activities people usually do on the day, including watching lanterns and fireworks, guessing lantern riddles, performing folk dances, and eating yuanxiao,etc.Of all the activities, I am interested in the Lion Dance most, which focuses on skills and is always amusing.
As far as I am concerned, the Lantern Festival is a special occasion for people to return home and gratefully reunite with family members. We should cherish this festival.

“冲突解决原则”“协同原则”“正能量原则”是完成读后续写的三大原则。遵循这三个原则,可以恰当地把握创造性的“度”,构建合情合理且和原文连贯一致的续写。
1.冲突解决原则
跌宕起伏的情节是记叙文的一大特点,但是在续写部分,故事趋于结局,即记叙文的冲突趋于解决,而不是悬而未决。
为了遵循“冲突解决原则”,需特别注意以下两点:
(1)不增加人物。由近年高考真题可知,续写部分的故事情节发展都是由原文的人物来推进,因此,强行增加人物有可能会偏离冲突的解决。
(2)不增加旁支情节。续写题目要求“考生根据所给情节进行续写”,旨在延续原文的故事情节,即冲突解决的情节,并不是要发展新情节。
2.协同原则
读后续写要求续写部分与原文达成协同。协同效应下的续写部分应在主题、情节、衔接、情感、语言方面与原文保持高度协同。
3.正能量原则
续写部分的内容一定要遵循正能量原则,弘扬社会主义核心价值观;应该积极向上,能增长知识、见识或传播正能量。
如果遭遇不幸,最终会有人施以援手,皆大欢喜;如果遇到困难,最终一定会克服困难,获得成功;如果产生矛盾,最终一定会言归于好;如果出现负面形象,最终一定会战胜自我,实现成长。

[2]“Yes, it is going to be celebrated on June 16 this year. Yesterday my friend and I talked about it.” Mano replied.
[3]“Do you have any idea how we should celebrate this day and make it memorable for Dad?” Ali asked.
[4]“Hmm...I was thinking about it too and have some ideas.” Mano answered excitedly. “What are you kids talking about?” their mum asked, entering the living room.
[5]“Mum, we were wondering how to celebrate Father's Day.” Mano said.
[6]“Oh, I am surprised you kids remembered! Well, I am thinking of cooking some favourite dishes for your dad. You both should think of ways to decorate the house beautifully.” Mum said.
[7]“That would be great!” said Mano and Ali together. Both of them got up smiling, thinking of hundreds of ways to celebrate Father's Day. Mum went to the kitchen, and Mano and Ali started doing their homework. But soon Ali noticed Mano deep in thought, so he asked what the matter was. “Ali, I was thinking that our parents do everything for us and in return they want nothing. Isn't it bad that we never think about them and are always concerned about our needs?” Mano replied. “Sometimes we are so busy with our lives that we don't pay proper attention to our parents. We should listen to whatever they say properly and answer them. We must also study hard to get good grades.” Ali nodded.
[8]The next day, all three of them, Mano, Ali and their mum, got busy preparing their surprise celebration for Father's Day. Mano drew a family picture with her crayons; Ali bought balloons and candles and began writing a poem which he planned to read that day. In short, a lot of things were being planned and prepared.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Finally, when Father's Day came, both Ali and Mano came home from school early and started decorating the house.________________________________

Ali and Mano cried out together, “Happy Father's Day!” Hearing the words, Dad laughed happily. “We have a surprise for you!” added Ali, pointing at the decorations and the well-prepared meal. The whole house decorated beautifully and elegantly, Dad was so surprised and touched that he could hardly utter a single word. When he saw the dinner, his eyes widened and twinkled with excitement.

I've Been to Almost Every Caribbean Carnival①
Adapted from Travel+Leisure 202401
Every year around this time, I get a steady anticipation—an excitement so tangible that I can close my eyes and instantly be transported② to electric moments in Trinidad (特立尼达拉岛), Barbados (巴巴多斯), Grenada (格林纳达), Anguilla (安圭拉岛), and all the way over the pond to Notting Hill. Covered in paint, powder③, sweat, and splashes④ of rum wine, I've gotten the closest I'll ever get to completely letting go at Carnival celebrations in the Caribbean. I looked into crowds and found that I'm not the only one experiencing this infinitude⑤ of joy, buoyed⑥ by music, dancing, and chants—and I've learned this sense of freedom is deliberate⑦, having been passed on and preserved for nearly 200 years.
Carnival in the Caribbean is a long-standing tradition rooted in Black rebellion⑧. In 18th-century Trinidad, enslaved Africans who were not allowed to participate in the masquerade balls⑨ by European colonizers⑩ created their own celebrations. Centuries later, my hope is that the importance of these traditions is not lost in the rising commercialization of Carnival. Caribbean people have always proudly crafted costumes, attended lively music and colour-filled costume competitions, and produced the sounds of soca (索卡乐)—the soundtrack of Carnival derived from calypso (卡利普索民歌) that combines East Indian and African instrumentation.
I've been lucky enough to be immersed in these traditions for more than a decade now. The spellbinding glow of the Jab Jab's painted Black skin in Grenada; the symphony of feathers crisscrossing down Port of Spain in Trinidad on Carnival Tuesday; the crowning of the Pic-O-De-Crop Monarch in Barbados, a competition showcasing the island's best calypso musicians. These connective fibers have brought me back to the Caribbean to be free and honor the legacy of a people whose ingenuity has sparked Carnival celebrations in countries as far as Japan and Sweden.
This year, I'll be heading to one of my favourite Caribbean islands, Dominica (多米尼加), to experience Mas Domnik for the first time. One of the great things about Carnival is that you not only get to attend so many events, but you also get to admire the beauty of the location. Weaving through Dominica—aptly called Nature Island thanks to its teeming marine life, cloaked rain forests, bubbling hot springs, and black-sand beaches—will be no exception. I'll play with the popular band Amnesia, set my alarm clock early for J'ouvert celebrations. I'll have dinner in the quaint courtyard of Lacou, where the fruit marlin fish and rum punch (朗姆潘趣酒) offer the perfect pairing. And I'll check into the newly renovated Fort Young Hotel and celebrated cliffside retreat , Secret Bay, voted by Travel+Leisure readers as their favourite Caribbean hotel.
There are a handful of other Carnivals I still want to experience, like St. Lucia. And I'm always ready to join the celebrations.

Have you ever experienced any festival celebration in China Please describe one.
One possible version:
I participate in the Lantern Festival Celebration on every 15th day of the first lunar month. In the daytime, performances such as dragon lantern dances, lion dances, land boat performances and the Yangge are staged. At night, apart from magnificent lantern shows, firework show is another beautiful scene. There are also activities, including lantern riddle guessing and a variety of cultural performances. It's a wonderful opportunity to experience traditional Chinese culture and festivities.
