So, I consider it one of China’s great contributions to international communication. Use it and be proud of your English and your Chinese culture at the same time!据我所知，中国的一些英文学习书籍劝诫大家不要使用这个问候语。书上说这句话是“中国式英语”，它起源于中国，而不是美国或英国。对此我完全反对！我从小到大在美国各个角落都听到人们使用这句问候语。因此我认为这是中国对国际语言交流的一个重大贡献。使用这句问候语吧！为你的流利英语而骄傲！为你的中国文化而骄傲！（2）How have you been? 你近来怎么样？（3）Nice to see you again. 很高兴又见到你。（4）It’s been a long time. 好久不见了。典型回应：It sure has. （的确是。）（5）I haven’t seen you in ages/for a long timB词义辨析。know&知道；recognize承认，认出；remember记得；realize意识到。句意：hi，皮特，好久不见。是你。抱歉刚开始没有认出你。所以选B。

Li Ming: It is good to return to the family home at the Spring Festival and meet parents, grandparents and as many aunts, uncles and cousins as possible. Susan: That’s a good opportunity for family reunion. Li Ming: Yeah, in the past, on New Year’s Eve, family members will stay at home making dumplings together.

Pre-reading ActivitiesA Chinese student is trying to introduce what he/she knows about the Spring Festival to his/her foreign friend. Work in pairs. One plays as a Chinese student and the other plays as a foreigner. Switch the roles in the next round.2. Reading ComprehensionThe Spring Festival in China1 The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people. It is the time for all family members to get together, just like Christmas in the West. All people living away from home go back and it becomes the busiest time for transportation systems. 2 The Spring Festival falls on the first day of the first lunar month, often one month later than the Gregorian calendar. It originated in the Shang Dynasty (BC) from people’s sacrifice to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one.listening Chinese version2. Reading Comprehension3 Many customs accompany the Spring Festival. Some are still followed today, but others have weakened. 4 On the 8th day of the 12th lunar month, many families make laba porridge, a kind of delicious porridge made with at least eight type of corn and fruit. 5 The 23rd day of the 12th lunar month is called Preliminary Eve. At this time, people offer sacrifice to the Kitchen God. Now however, most families make delicious food to enjoy themselves. After Preliminary Eve, people begin preparing for the coming New Year. This is called “Seeing the New Year in”.listening Chinese version2. Reading Comprehension6 Before the New Year comes, people clean the indoors and outdoors of their homes completely as well as their clothes, bedrooms and all their utensils. 7 Then people begin decorating their clean rooms featuring an atmosphere of rejoicing and festivity. All the doors will be pasted with Spring Festival couplets, highlighting Chinese calligraphy with black characters on red paper. The content varies from wishes for a bright future to good luck for the New Year. Also, pictures of door gods and Gods of Wealth will be posted on the front door to ward off evil spirits and welcome peace and abundance.listening Chinese version2. Reading Comprehension8 The Chinese character fu (meaning blessing or happiness) is a must. The character put on paper can be pasted normally or upside down, for in Chinese the reversed fu is similar to “fu comes”, both being pronounced as fudaole. What’s more, two big red lanterns cam be raised on both sides of the front door. Chinese paper cuttings can be seen on windows and brightly coloured New Year pictures with auspicious meanings may be put on the wall.listeningChinese version2. Reading Comprehension9 People attach great importance to New Year’s Eve. At that time, all family members eat dinner together. The meal is more luxurious than usual. Dishes such as chicken, fish and bean curd cannot be excluded, for in Chinese, the pronunciation of the names , ji, yu, and doufu, respectively mean auspicious, abundance and richness. After dinner, the whole family will sit together, chatting and watching TV. In recent years, the Spring Festival Gala broadcast on China Central Television Station (CCTV) is essential entertainment for the Chinese both at home and abroad. According to the custom, each family will stay up to see the New Year in.listening Chinese version2. Reading Comprehension10 After waking up on New Year’s Day, everybody dresses up. First they extend greetings to their parents. Then each child will get money as a New Year gift, contained in a red envelope. People in northern China will eat jiaozi, or dumplings, for breakfast, as they think the name jiaozi sounds like “bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new”. Also, the shape of the dumpling is like gold ingot from ancient China. So people eat them and wish for money and treasure. Southern Chinese eat niangao (New Year’s cake made of glutinous rice flour) on this occasion, because niangao means “higher and higher, one year after another”.listening Chinese version2. Reading Comprehension11 Setting the fireworks is the most typical custom at Spring Festival. People think the exploding sound can help drive away evil spirits. However, in big cities such an activity is limited nowadays to certain areas and time as the government takes security, noise and pollution factors into consideration. 12 The lively atmosphere not only fills every household, but permeates the streets and lanes. A series of activities such as lion dances, dragon lantern dances, and temple fairs will be held for days.listeningChinese version2. Reading Comprehension13 The Lantern Festival on the 15th of the first lunar month marks the last day of the Spring Festival. On this day, decorative lanterns are hung out for people to appreciate. Guessing lantern riddles is an essential part of the festival. Besides entertainment and beautiful lanterns, another important part of the Lantern Festival is eating yuanxiao. Yuanxiao is round in shape and symbolises family togetherness.listeningChinese version2. Reading ComprehensionWords & Expressions1. lunar adj. relating to the moon e.g. The studies of the lunar surface have achieved interesting results.BACK2. Reading ComprehensionWords & Expressions2. paste v. to stick paper to a surface using glue e.g. A notice has been pasted to the door. She pasted the pictures into a scrapbook.BACK2.

Reading Comprehension中国春节1 正如西方的圣诞节一样，对于中国人来说，春节是最重要的节日并已然成为家人团聚的重要时刻。所有远离家乡的人都会回家，而春节也成为交通运输系统最为繁忙的时间。2 春节适逢正月初一，通常要比阳历晚一个月。它起源于商朝（约公元前1600年―公元前1046年）时人们在年末岁初对神和祖先的献祭。BACK2. Reading Comprehension 3 春节有很多习俗。其中一些习俗沿用至今，有些习俗则逐渐弱化。4 在腊月初八这一天，很多家庭都会做腊八粥，这是一种至少由八种谷物蔬果做成的美味可口的粥。5 腊月23日叫做小年。在这一天，人们要准备祭品祭祀灶神。然而现在，多数家庭都只是做顿美味佳肴，犒劳一下自己。过了小年，人们就开始为即将到来的新年作准备了，这就是所谓的“迎新年”。BACK2. Reading Comprehension6 在新年到来之前，人们要将屋里屋外彻底打扫 一遍，还要清洗衣服、床单和各种器皿。 7 然后人们装饰打扫一新的房子，营造欢乐的气 氛。所有的门上都会贴上春联，红纸黑字的中国书 法异常显眼。春联的内容根据主人对美好未来的憧憬以及对来年好运的期盼而有所变化。同样，前门上还会贴上门神与财神来辟邪和迎接平安与富足。BACK2. Reading Comprehension8 汉语的“福”字（意味着祝 福、幸福）是必不可少的。印在 纸上的这个字可以正着贴也可以倒着贴，因为在汉语中，“福倒了”和“福到了”同音，它们的读音都是fudaole。此外，可以将两个大红灯笼挂在前门两边。窗 户玻璃上可以贴上红色的剪纸， 墙壁上也可以贴上颜色鲜艳、内 容吉祥的年画。BACK2. Reading Comprehension9 人们非常重视除夕夜。这天晚上，所有的家庭成 员一起吃晚饭。这顿饭比起以往要更丰盛。像鸡、鱼和 豆腐这些菜是必不可少的，因为它们的中文发音分别是 ji、yu和doufu，寓意为吉祥、充裕和富有。饭后，全家 人会坐在一起，聊天、看电视。近年来，中国中央电视 台（CCTV）播出的春节联欢晚会已经成为国内外中国人必不可少的娱乐节目。根据习俗，每个家庭都会熬夜迎接新的一年的到来。BACK2. Reading Comprehension10 初一早上醒来，每个人都会精心打扮。首先，他 们会给父母拜年。然后每个孩子将会得到包在红纸里 的压岁钱作为新年礼物。中国北方人早餐会吃饺子， 因为他们认为“饺子”听起来意味着“辞旧迎新”。此外，饺子的形状像古代中国的金元宝，所以人们吃饺子期盼获得金钱和财富。中国南方人在这一场合下会吃年糕（用糯米粉做成），因为年糕意味着“年复一年，步步高升”。BACK2. Reading Comprehension 11 放鞭炮是春节最典型的风俗。人们认为噼里啪啦的声音能够辟邪。然而，因为政府考虑到安全、噪音以及污染等因素，现在在大城市里，放鞭炮有特定区域和指定时间段的限制。12 热闹的气氛不仅充溢着每家每户，还遍布街头巷尾。一系列的活动像舞狮、龙灯舞和庙会将举办好多天。BACK2. Reading Comprehension13 正月十五日的元宵节标志着春节的最后一天。这一 天，人们可以观赏到装饰一新的花灯。猜灯谜也是元宵节不可或缺的活动。除了娱乐活动和欣赏花灯，元宵节另外一个重要的部分就是吃元宵。元宵是圆形的，象征 着合家团圆。BACK2. Reading comprehensionA. Answer the following questions. 1. What is the origin of the Spring Festival in China? It originated in the Shang Dynasty from people’s sacrifice to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one. 2. What do people do on the 23rd of the 12th lunar month? People offer sacrifice to the Kitchen God. 3. Why is the character fu sometimes pasted upside down? Because in Chinese the reversed fu is similar to “fu comes”, both being pronounced as fudaole. 4. What is the meal on New Year’s Eve like? The meal is more luxurious than usual. Dishes such as chicken, fish and bean curd cannot be excluded.BACK2. Reading comprehensionA. Answer the following questions.5. What do people do first upon waking up on New Year’s Day? Waking up on New Year’s Day, people extend greetings to their parents. 6. Why must people in northern Chain eat dumplings on New Year’s Day? Because jiaozi in sound means “bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new”. Also, the shape of the dumpling is like gold ingot from ancient China. So people eat them and wish for money and treasure. 7. Why do people set off fireworks at the Spring Festival? Because people think the spluttering sound could help drive away evil spirits. 8. What is the tradition of the Lantern Festival? On the Lantern Festival, people will appreciate decorative lanterns and guess lantern riddles. Besides entertainment and lanterns, people will eat yuanxiao.BACK2. Reading comprehensionB. What is the significance of the following things during the Spring Festival?
