　　The spring Festival

　　Dear Jon :

　　The Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. It is on January 1st according to the Chinese lunar calendar(中国的农历). It’s China’s New Year’s Day. So usually a month before the festival people begin to buy food clothes and decorations(装饰) for houses.

　　About a week before the festival housewives are busy preparing the new year dinner. And they will do a lot of washing and cleaning in the houses. People who are far away on business are hurrying to return home for the new year’s family reunion(团聚).

　　On New Year Eve each family will gather tighter eating talking and watching TV for almost the whole night. And there will be some interesting programmers on TV. The children are the happiest of all because they can get presents from parents or grandparents.

　　On Lunar New Year’s Day after getting up people will eat dumplings. When they meet their neighbors or friends they’ll say: “Happy New Year!”

　　I am ready to spend with together my family on the Spring Festival I’ am going to see my grandparents and friends . I ’m going to Disneyland in HONGKONG with my parents I will revise lessons do exercise every day help the old and children .Welcome to China.

　　Waiting for your e -mail .

　　Yours Lingling

　　Happy new year to everyone!
