五、传统文化阅读理解。
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for elderly people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month on the Chinese lunar calendar.
As the Chinese number for nine has the same sound as the Chinese character jiu, people take the Double Ninth Festival to show their wishes for long life for their loved ones.
There are many traditions for this festival. On that day, all family members get together and climb mountains for good luck and in the hope that elderly people will live much longer. They also drink chrysanthemum wine(菊花酒) and wear a plant called zhuyu to celebrate it. Both chrysanthemums and zhuyu are regarded as plants that can cure diseases.
Respecting elderly people is reflected not only on this special day but also in daily life. For example, when there are several guests at the table, the host usually introduces them from the oldest to the youngest. When a younger person is presenting something to an older person, two hands are used. And ▲.
It is a traditional virtue(美德)in China to respect elderly people. That’s because the Chinese know that elderly people have more knowledge and experience that young people can learn from.
