Section One Around the topic

Step 1 Topic introduction:

Many Chinese students find it very difficult to introduce Chinese culture to foreign friends.

The biggest problem is that they don’t know how to express their understanding about

Chinese culture or how to explain some typical concepts in Chinese culture. Chinese learners

of English as a foreign language should not only study western cultures, but also deepen their

understanding of Chinese culture, so that they can introduce it to the outside word.

Step 2 Your ideas

Work in groups or pairs and discuss the following questions

1) Why is spring Festival so important for the Chinese people?

2) What do you usually do during the Spring Festival

3) Are there any special celebration activities in your hometown during Spring Festival?

4) In what ways do you think the Spring Festival has Changed?

How much do you know about the Chinese New Year?

A. Which day in the 15-day celebration is for the sons-in-laws to pay a visit to their

parents-in-law?

The third and fourth days.

B. What is the fifth day called?

Po Woo.

C. How many kinds of traditional New Year food do you know?

Dumplings, a whole fish, chicken, New Year cake…

D. Do we use knives or scissors on New Year's Day?

NO. They may cut off fortune.

E. What fruit do we usually use as a decoration during the Spring Festival?

Oranges and Tangerines. They are symbols for abundant happiness.
