DIALOGUE

A: Have you heard about the Dragon Boat Races to be held this afternoon?

A: 你知道今天下午有龍舟比賽嗎?

B: Yes, it is part of a holiday, right?

B: 知道啊，是為了慶祝什么節日對吧?

A: Yup, Duan Wu Festival, but it’s also just simply called the Dragon Boat Festival. It’s among the three major traditional holidays celebrated by Chinese.

A: 是的，是端午節，不過(英文中)通常叫做龍舟節。它是中國三大傳統節日之一。

B: Other than the Dragon Boat Races, what’s special about this day?

B: 除了龍舟賽，這一天還有什么特別的活動嗎?

A: Traditionally, it was thought to be a time for warding off evil spirits, but now it’s just thought of a time to remind family members to take care of their health.

A: 在傳統上，這一天一直被視為是驅兇避邪的日子，不過現在它的意義已經只是提醒家人注意身體健康了。

B: Sounds great! I think I’ll join in on the boat competitions.

B: 聽起來不賴!我想我會去參加龍舟比賽。

A: After you’ve worked up an appetite, you can eat Zongzi. Everyone eats them during the Dragon Boat Festival.

A: 等你劃船累到肚子餓的時候，就可以吃粽子。端午節的時候大家都會吃粽子。

B: Eating is a really important part of Chinese culture, huh?

B: 吃真是中國文化中很重要的一部分，對吧?

A: Yes, perhaps one of the most important aspect. Don’t worry though; there are no surprises in Zongzi. They are just rice with either meat or sweet red bean paste wrapped inside. They are quite yummy!

A: 沒錯，或許是最重要的之一。不過別擔心，粽子里面沒什么特別的東西，只是米飯包著肉或豆沙而已。好吃極了!
