Samples1) Sample 1The Spring FestivalThe Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. It is on the first day of lunar year, people celebrate to each other. In the evening before the Spring Festival, families get together and have a big meal, dumplings are the most traditional food. Then they stay up late or all night on New Year's Eve. In many places people like to set off firecrackers. Children like the festival very much, because they can have delicious food and wear new clothes. They can also get some lucky money from their parents and relatives. This money is given to children for good luck. The Spring Festival lasts about 15 days long. People visit relatives and friends and exchange their bestgreetings. People enjoy the Spring Festival, during this time they can have a good rest.2)Sample 2Christmas Is ComingI like Christmas, it is just like our Spring Festival. Maybe the Spring Festival is much more important and interesting than Christmas, but I like Christmas Day better. Because we can spend time with our friends and classmates during Christmas. When it is snowy, Christmas becomes much more lovely, just like in fairy tales. I can imagine I am in a fairy tale, the girl who sold the matches is my friend, the ugly duck becoming more and more beautiful and so on. What a beautiful place! So we can also call Christmas “Snowy Lovely Day.”On Christmas Day, shops are red and green. There are so many Christmas cards, Christmas hats, Christmas dolls and many colorful things. So shops look very beautiful. We can give a card or a doll to our friends and say “Merry Christmas”. By the way, I think studying can also become much more interesting.Christmas is coming, it also means a new year will come. Let’s study harder to welcome the New Year!V. Homework1.Finish off the Workbook exercises.2. Review the contents of the unit and complete Summing Up on Page 8.。
