（本题10分）The Mid -Autumn Festival has a history of about 2,000 years. During these years lots of Mid Autumn traditions have been thought up by Chinese people. All the celebrations show the happiness and excitement of people.
The main celebrations during the Mid -Autumn Festival are admiring the moon, eating mooncakes together and making Chinese Mid -Autumn Festival lanterns.
