New Words&ExpressionsThe Lantern Festival 元宵节The Tonb-Sweeping Day 清明节The Dragon Boat Festival 端午节The Mid-Autumn Festival 中秋节scrap v. 废弃adjacent adj. 邻近的netizen n. 网民deprive v. 夺去entitle vt. 给……权利heritage n. 遗产revise v. 修订revision n. 修订F：the Chinese government announced the scrapping of one of country’s three “gol d en week” holidays. Does it mean that you are going to have fewer holidays?C: Not really. The government at the same time added three traditional festivals——the Tomb-Sweeping Day, the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival——to the list of public holidays. Each of the three traditional festivals will be a one-day holiday。

F: Then you will have fewer days for holiday.C: No. The government actually increased the total number of national holidays from 10 to 11 days.F: Would you please give me some detailed information about the revision?C: All right. The Spring Festival remains a three-day public holiday, but it will start one day earlier from the eve of the Lunar New Year, China’s most important traditional festival. The May Day holiday is shortened from three days to one day, while the three-day National Day holiday and one-day New Year holiday remain unchanged. The government will continue to move the weekend days adjacent to a national holiday to form a longer holiday period so that people will have three days or seven days off in a row. The New Year Day, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, May Day, and Mid-Autumn Day then become holidays of three days each. The Spring Festival holiday and National Day holiday remain seven-day holidays.F: What’s the purpose of making the revision?C: Because hundreds of millions of Chinese traveling at the same time made transport and tourist destinations very crowded, making these holidays far from an enjoyable experience. An official said the change would uphold Chinese traditions, make public holidays better distributed and, with more people traveling on new public and paid holidays, ease overcrowding on the golden weeks.F: I’ve heard that some people dislike the revision.C: Yes. Some netizens have complained that the revised May Day holiday will make the remaining two golden weeks even more crowded and that deprives people working far from theirhometowns of the chance to go back home for family gatherings. They have even voiced their worry that a lot of company employees will not be off on the newly-added traditional festival holidays.F: Does the government know that?C: Yes. The spokesman said the revision could not satisfy all the people, whose interests might vary, but did respect the opinion of a majority. He said that 75 percent of the people were in favor of the change and that 60 percent of the netizens agreed to the way the May Day holiday was revised.F: I had paid holidays when I worked in my country. Do people have paid holidays in China? C: Yes. All employees of government agencies, enterprise and public-service institutions are entitled to take paid holidays after serving the same employer for one year. Employees who have worked for ten to 19 years will have ten days and those who have worked for 20 years and above would have 15 days.F: That’s wonderful.。
