  今天给大家带来的是雅思口语Part2物品类题库:传统节日。希望以下内容能够为同学们的雅思备考提供帮助。  
  Describe a traditional festival.
  You should say:
  what it is
  when it is celebrated
  how it is celebrated
  and explain how you feel about this traditional festival.
  We have many traditional festivals in China, the most famous one being Spring Festival, or Chinese New Year. But I'd like to talk about a festival that occurs every year around September or early October, called Zhong Qiu Jie, or Mid-Autumn Day. It is perhaps lesser-known outside of China, but it is personally one of my favourite festivals and one that I look forward to every year.
  As the name suggests, Mid-Autumn Day should take place around the middle of autumn. The reason the date changes is because it should be the fifteenth day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar, and this changes in the Western calendar depending on the year.
  The reason it is one of my favourite festivals is because we eat moon cakes! As well as being delicious, moon cakes have a special meaning. They are round, which is a symbol of family and togetherness. They usually have a sweet filling, which represents a sweet and happy life. Moon cakes are generally only around at this time of year, so it's important to make the most of them while you can.
  As you can tell, I'm a big fan of Mid-Autumn Day. It makes me feel warm, thinking about my family, and a little nostalgic as I remember all the years I have eaten moon cakes. I think it's very important to keep these traditional festivals going as they rein-force Chinese culture and remind us to think about our families at a time when more and more people may live a long way from home.
