Presentation
Dear Jim,
I’m very glad to tell you something about the Chinese Spring Festival. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It’s a traditional festival in China. It is celebrated on the first day of the Chinese lunar calendar..
Before the Spring Festival, people usually clean and decorate their houses carefully. They put on Spring Festival couplets on their doors. On New Year’s Eve, people set off fireworks and light candles to wait for the New Year to come.
During the Spring Festival, everyone goes home to get together with their
families. They eat Niangao, dumplings and family dinner. They visit relatives and
have dinner together, too. When the kids greet their grandparents, they can get
lucky money. That’s one of my favorite parts of the festival.
That’s one of the most interesting festivals! I hope you can come to celebrate it with us some day!
Yours,
Li Hua

Hens lay eggs, giving birth to life, so an egg is a symbol of new life. （教材P16）
symbol n. 象征
e.g. Do you know the symbol of China
你知道中国的象征吗？
What’s the chemical symbol for copper

e.g. Not only did I go to Beijing but ( also) Linda went there.
不仅我去了北京，Linda也去了。
not only ... but also ... 也可连接句子中的两个并列成分，当其连接两个主语时谓语动词的数与邻近的主语保持一致。（就近原则）
e.g. Shakespeare is not only a writer but ( also) an actor.
莎士比亚不仅是一个作家还是一个演员。
Not only I but also Tom and Mary are fond of reading novels.
不仅是我，Tom和Mary也喜欢读小说。
give out 分发；散发
give out相当于hand out, 为“动词+副词”型短语。其后所接宾语为名词, 放在give与out之间或out之后均可; 其后所接宾语为代词时则要放在give与out之间。
e.g. The teacher gave out the examination papers to the students.
