The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms(节气). The Winter Solstice is the 22nd solar term of the year. It usually falls on December 21st, 22nd or 23rd.
On the Winter Solstice, the northern hemisphere(半球) experiences the shortest day and the longest night in the year. From then on, the days become longer and the nights become shorter. It also marks the arrival of the coldest season in the year.
There was a saying in ancient China, “The Winter Solstice is as important as the Spring Festival.” The Winter Solstice became a winter festival during the Han Dynasty(206 BC-220 AD). On this day, both officials and common people would have a rest.
Here are some foods people enjoy on the Winter Solstice.
Eating dumplings and tangyuan
During the Winter Solstice in North China, people like eating dumplings. In southern China and Taiwan, people will eat tangyuan.
Eating wontons(馄饨)
People in Suzhou, Jiangsu eat wontons on the Winter Solstice. According to an old story, during the midwinter feast(冬至宴会) 2,500 years ago, the King of Wu was disgusted with all kinds of costly(昂贵的) foods and wanted to eat something different. Then, the beauty Xishi came into the kitchen to make “wontons”. The king ate a lot and liked the food very much. To remember Xishi, the people of Suzhou made wontons to celebrate the festival.
Having mutton soup
In Yinchuan, Ningxia people call midwinter the “Ghost Festival”. On that day people there eat mutton soup with dumplings in it. They give the midwinter soup a strange name—“brain”, and share it with their neighbors.
Eating rice cakes
During the Winter Solstice, people in Hangzhou traditionally eat rice cakes. In the past, before the Winter Solstice came, every family would make the cakes. Today, though fewer families eat home-made cakes, people there still buy rice cakes for the Winter Solstice.
6.Which is TRUE about the Winter Solstice in the northern hemisphere
A. It is the coldest day of a year.
B. It is the shortest day of a year.

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms(节气). The Winter Solstice is the 22nd solar term of the year. It usually falls on December 21st, 22nd or 23rd.
On the Winter Solstice, the northern hemisphere(半球) experiences the shortest day and the longest night in the year. From then on, the days become longer and the nights become shorter. It also marks the arrival of the coldest season in the year.
There was a saying in ancient China, “The Winter Solstice is as important as the Spring Festival.” The Winter Solstice became a winter festival during the Han Dynasty(206 BC-220 AD). On this day, both officials and common people would have a rest.
Here are some foods people enjoy on the Winter Solstice.
Eating dumplings and tangyuan
During the Winter Solstice in North China, people like eating dumplings. In southern China and Taiwan, people will eat tangyuan.
Eating wontons(馄饨)
People in Suzhou, Jiangsu eat wontons on the Winter Solstice. According to an old story, during the midwinter feast(冬至宴会) 2,500 years ago, the King of Wu was disgusted with all kinds of costly(昂贵的) foods and wanted to eat something different. Then, the beauty Xishi came into the kitchen to make “wontons”. The king ate a lot and liked the food very much. To remember Xishi, the people of Suzhou made wontons to celebrate the festival.
Having mutton soup
In Yinchuan, Ningxia people call midwinter the “Ghost Festival”. On that day people there eat mutton soup with dumplings in it. They give the midwinter soup a strange name—“brain”, and share it with their neighbors.
Eating rice cakes
During the Winter Solstice, people in Hangzhou traditionally eat rice cakes. In the past, before the Winter Solstice came, every family would make the cakes. Today, though fewer families eat home-made cakes, people there still buy rice cakes for the Winter Solstice.
