The summer heat hit me as soon as I got off the flight.No wonder people from Rio take a week off for this happy occasion.I could feel it already—the Carnival was in the air!
To experience the spirit of the Carnival for myself, I went to a street party.Luckily, I arrived just in time—the show was about to begin as I took my place in the merry crowd.I could see a group of around 20 Brazilian dancers and a band in fancy costumes standing in the street.Some of them carried flags, which blew in the wind.The crowd waited with excitement.
Then there was an explosion of bright colours and lively music, and the group jumped into action.The band started playing an energetic samba beat, the dancers twisted and turned, and the crowd began to cheer，clap and sing.The whole group started marching down the street.The Carnival current carried us through the ever-growing sea of people, dancing all the way.Iceboxes of soft drinks and beer lined the narrow streets, and the smell of roasted meat filled the air as we passed wave after wave of street stands.I was so caught up in the party fever that I hardly noticed five hours fly by!
Even as I lay in bed that evening, the bright colours and lively music were still swimming all around me.What an amazing first day in Rio!

(2024·温州环大罗山联盟高一期中)St.Patrick's Day, Ireland's National Day, is celebrated on 17th March every year, marking the anniversary of the day on which Saint Patrick passed away.St.Patrick is the most famous saint of Ireland.Born in Roman Britain, he was enslaved in Ireland at the age of 16, but he successfully escaped.Later, he returned to Ireland and brought his religious beliefs to its people.
On St. Patrick's Day, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon.People would dance, drink, and feast on traditional meals of Irish bacon and cabbage.The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for over 1，000 years.
Interestingly, however, the first parade held to celebrate St. Patrick's Day took place not in Ireland but in the United States.On 17th March 1762, Irish soldiers serving in the English army marched through New York City.Along with their music, the parade helped the soldiers reconnect with their Irish roots, as well as with fellow Irishmen serving in the English army.
Over 100 St.Patrick's Day parades happen across the U.S., with New York City and Boston hosting the biggest.In 1848, New York Irish Aid societies joined to create the official New York City St.Patrick's Day Parade, the world's oldest civilian (平民的) parade and the largest in the U.S. It draws over 150，000 participants and nearly 3 million spectators (观众), lasting over five hours.Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Savannah also celebrate the day with major parades.
Today, people of all backgrounds celebrate St. Patrick's Day, especially throughout the United States, Canada and Australia.It is also celebrated in many other locations far from Ireland, including Japan, Singapore, and Russia.
