Festivals and celebrations
Festivals and celebrations of all kinds have been held everywhere since ancient times. Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn. Sometimes celebrations would be held after hunters had caught animals. At that time people would starve if food was difficult to find, especially during the cold winter months. Today's festivals have many origins, some religious, some seasonal, and some for special people or events.
Festivals of the dead
Day of the Dead
Some festivals are held to honour the dead or to satisfy the ancestors, who might return either to help or to do harm. In Mexico, people celebrate the Day of the Dead on November 1st (All Saints Day) and 2nd (All Souls Day). On this important feast day, people eat food in the shape of skulls and cakes with "bones" on them. They offer food, marigolds （万寿菊）and gifts to the dead. While it's strange for most of us to accept the fact that "death" and "festivities（欢宴）" can go hand-in-hand. But Mexicans have the beliefs that the souls（灵魂） of the dead return each year to visit with their living relatives - to eat, drink and be happy. Just like they did when they were living. Death is part of life. This is a representative of the Mexican spirit and tradition, which says: "Don't take anything lying down even death!"
Task: Make a poster(海报) to introduce this festival to your classmates.
Festivals to honour people

Dragon boat racing and eating Zongzi are the major customs of the festival. In some regions in China, people also wear a perfume pouch（香囊）, tie five－color silk thread（五色丝带），hang mugwort leaves（艾草叶） on their doors and drink realgar wine（雄黄酒）.

However, in the following spring, local Indians taught them how to grow corn and how to hunt fish.

Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942 and died on 14th March, 2018. He is probably the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. It was at the age of 20 that Hawking had motor neuron disease（运动神经元病）,Doctors said he would die before 23. As a matter of fact, the doctors were wrong – he didn't die. Hawking is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end) of the universe.
He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics(理论物理学). “I have had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said. “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work.”
