Dear Linda，
I’m very happy that you are interested in
traditional Chinese festivals. There are many
traditional festivals in China, such as Spring
Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat
Festival and so on. I’d like to introduce the
Spring Festival to you. The Spring Festival is
the most important traditional holiday in China.
It usually falls in February and lasts for 15 days.
We have many wonderful activities during the
festival. These activities begin before the festival.
First, we clean our houses. We think cleaning can 写作范例sweep away any bad luck. At the same time, we
buy new clothes that we will wear during the
festival. Then, on the eve of the festival, family
members get together and have big meals happily.
The most exciting thing is that we enjoy the Spring
Festival Gala on TV. At midnight, a popular
activity is to set off fireworks to welcome the
new year. During the festival, kids get lucky
money from old people. We wear our new clothes
and visit our relatives and friends. We wish each
other a happy year and good luck. All in all, the festival is full of love and fun.
How happy and wonderful we feel!Best wishes！
Yours，
Lingling

example, I watched the sunrise and sunset on the
seaside. I had fun collecting shells along the soft
beaches. Besides, I enjoyed entertainment at the
nice hotels in the city. For example, I enjoyed hot
springs, playing golf and all kinds of water sports.
It was really fun and relaxing. What’s more, I
visited Yalong Bay and Tianya Haijiao. They are
the top two musts for each tourist in Sanya. What an interesting trip I had! Sanya is so
beautiful that I can’t forget this trip forever.
