After the opening ceremony and some amazing performances , the wrestling competition began. Mongolian wresting is different from the wresting in the Olympic Games. There are no rounds, and wrestlers are not separated by weight. The wrestler loses if any part of his body above his knee touches the ground. After singing some songs, the competitors danced onto the green field, waving their arms in the air as if they were eagles. I was quite moved by their show of strength and grace.
Second Body Paragraph: Describe in detail the festival activities.

I absolutely enjoyed the archery, too, but the horse races were my favourite part. However,

At first, I was a little worried about the children's safety, but Burin said, "Don't worry. They've been riding horses all their lives. They'll be just fine." That was the moment I started to understand why people say "Horses are at the heart of Mongolian culture". ...

Fifty years of marriage marks a “gold anniversary”. And the term “diamond anniversary” is used to describe a marriage that has lasted for 60 years.(例如，庆祝结婚的第一年被称为“纸婚纪念日”。 结婚五十年标志着一个“黄金周年”。 而“钻石纪念日”一词则用来形容一段持续了60年的婚姻)”可知，除了“铂金婚”还有其他结婚纪念日的术语。由此可知，F.

4．根据下文“In Canada, couples can receive a message from the country’s governor-general (总督) on their 50th anniversary, and on every fifth anniversary after that. In the US, the president himself will send a greeting to couples that reach their 50th anniversary, and for every anniversary after that.(在加拿大，夫妻可以在结婚 50 周年时收到该国总督的信息，之后的每五周年都如此。在美国，总统本人会向结婚 50 周年的夫妇致以问候，并且包括之后的每个周年纪念日)”可知，在加拿大和美国在结婚纪念日时，人们会收到领导人的祝贺。由此可知，D.
