for us. My husband and I are both retired. We do not see our children and grandchildren very often and we miss them a lot. Weeks before Spring Festival, we start getting ready for their homecoming. Things start to get really busy. We think about what the children would like to eat, what we need to buy and what dishes need to be prepared.

Spring Festival is family time
To me, this is Spring Festival — the joy of a family gathering.
Throughout history, some of the original customs have changed, but the spirit of the festival-the spirit of family-has largely been kept. Most of the important Spring
Festival traditions are still being practised by people across the country.
Read carefully. Find out each person's
experience of Spring Festival in the three
accounts. Take notes.

What can you infer from Xu
Gang's and Li Yan's accounts
What does it mean in Chinese culture
Family reunion is the central theme of both
accounts. This shows the importance of
family in Chinese culture.
As we all know, China has a wide variety of traditional ways to celebrate Spring Festival. After watching the video, discuss with your partner about how to carry forward traditional Chinese culture as a Chinese.
Post-reading
Express Yourself
It is universally acknowledged that Chinese culture has a history of more than 5,000 years, which has a great effect on the world.
Whatever your job is, as a Chinese we have the responsibility to carry forward traditional Chinese culture.
Firstly, we should have a good knowledge of Chinese culture.
Secondly, it’s high time that we should protect and inherit it, like promoting cultural exchange, and establishing Confucius institutes all over the world. Attracting more foreigners to China to experience Chinese culture will have a far-reaching impact.
