1--Today is an important day.
2--What is it?
1--Don't you know that today is the traditional Chinese Lantern Festival?
2--Sorry,I don't know. Do you like it very much?
1--Yes,of course. We Chinese people usually have rice glue balls today and children have lanterns as their toys. Would you like some rice glue balls?
2--Yes,I'd like to have some. But why are dumplings so important for the festival?
1--That's just because rice glue balls are usually round-shaped. The roundshaped rice glue balls suggest family union and good luck for the year.
2--Oh , it's so interesting.

2--是的,我想来点。但是元宵对这个节日为什么那么重要呢?
1--那是因为元宵是圆的。圆圆的元宵象征着家庭团聚和一年的好运。
