I'm going to Paris next week.

    Usually, a family has parents and children. But the structure varies in different (culture).

    In many Asian countries, extended families (大家庭) are common. Families usually have three generations (live) together. When parents are busy with work, grandparents help do the housework and take care the children.

    While in most (west) countries, many people prefer a nuclear family (核心家庭): families only parents and children. During the daytime, working parents send their children grandparents' house or daycare centres. And after work, they take the children back home. Some families are even (describe) as DINK—double income, no kids. According to 2010 Pew Research report, one in five (America) couples don't want a child.

    Although families may (different) in the East and West, every family is a warm place to teach us important values of love and care.

    Busy parents and growing children are spending less family time together. According to the latest picture of family life in Britain, the average (平均的) family get together for Just 45 minutes a day, And most of that time is spent either in front of the TV or eating.

    The findings, from a survey (调查) of 3,000 children and parents, signal a worrying breakdown of the family unit due to a "family-unfriendly culture".

    One in three said they spent most of their time with the family eating and one in six said watching TV or playing computer games was their family time.

    Traditional pastimes (娱乐) for parents and children seem to be on the decline. Just 5 per cent said they spent family time doing sports, 3 per cent read stories and only 2 per cent helped with homework.

    The erosion (日渐减少) of family life leaves parents less time to teach key social skills such as listening to others, saying "please" and "thank you" and taking turns (按顺序), the survey shows.

    The Duanwu Festival in China, also called Dragon Boat Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month every year according to the Chinese lunar calendar. For thousands of years, this festival has been marked by people's eating Zongzi and racing dragon boats. (A) To hold the dragon boat races is in memory of Qu Yuan. He was one of the greatest poets in ancient China.

    Qu Yuan was born in Zigui of Hubei Province over 2,200 years ago. Qu Yuan was an honest minister (大臣) of the State of Chu during the Warring States Period (475—22l BC) . He was upright, patriotic (爱国的) and wise. (B) 屈原想给自己的祖国带来和平并让它变得更强大。But the country was in the hands of bad officials, he could do nothing to change it. (C) He was very discouraged. At last, Qu Yuan ended his life by throwing himself into the Miluo River. It is said that people tried to save him by jumping into the river. But it was too late and all their efforts were in vain. Also, they were so sad and they threw rice into the water to feed Qu Yuan's spirit.

    Now we read his poem Li Sao which is filled with deep love for his country. We can see the dragon boat races and have a kind of Chinese food named Zongzi to eat during the Dragon boat Festival.
