Dear Cindy,

       How are you? I had a great time last Tuesday May 30th, 2020. It was a traditional Chinese festival 【1】 Dragon Boat Festival that day.

This festival is in memory of Qu Yuan, one of the 【2】 Chinese poets. He killed himself by 【3】 into the Miluo River on May 5th of the lunar calendar, 278 BC. People there rowed the boats 【4】 him. But it was too late. They were very sad and then 【5】 rice into the river to feed the fishes so that they would stay away from his body.

From then on, every year on this day, people enjoy 【6】 zongzi which is made of rice with meat, eggs and so on. In the past we ate it only once a year, but now we regard it as our everyday food. We can have it at any time we like.

Have you ever 【7】 the dragon boat race on TV? It is another important part of this festival. Several teams row their dragon-shaped boats as 【8】 as they can. The first team to reach the finish line 【9】.

If you have a plan to visit China next year, would you like 【10】 this festival with us?

Best wishes!

Yours,

Shen

21、"I never knew before, Cecil, that you were so fond of drawing," said Aunt Sophia, as she looked over the shoulder of her nephew, who was busy with his pencil. "You really have made great progress."

"I need to do so," cried Cecil, "if I am to carry off the prize for drawing, as I am determined to do this term."

"I should have thought," said the aunt, "that you had little chance against Lee. He is an artist's son, and has used the pencil from his cradle.(摇篮) "

"That will double the pleasure of beating him!" cried Cecil, "I'm working now at this four hours a day; he never draws more than two."

"You are not neglecting(忽视) your Latin for it, I hope? You have had the Latin prize every term for these three years past," said Aunt Sophia.

"Yes," replied Cecil, with a proud smile; "there is no boy in our class who can match me in that, though Russell is now working hard. But I am not content with one prize: I cannot rest till I have won the paint-box for drawing, of which Tom Lee makes so sure. It would be glorious to beat the son of an artist on his own ground!"

"Take care," said his aunt, "that you do not lose the Latin prize in trying for what you are not likely to gain.”

On the evening of the day on which the names of the prize-winners were read out, Cecil came home from school long-faced. His looks told his aunt enough to make her spare him the pain of questions; but his little sister Rosey was not so thoughtful.

"Cecil," she cried, "tell me, are you to get the two prizes?"

"No, not even one. I was so busy trying to beat Lee that I could not hold my ground against Russell." Cecil threw himself into a sofa in an angry mood.

Their aunt silently hoped that the lesson might prove worth the pain which it cost.
