Read the text «Independence Day». independence-day-parade.jpg

One of my favourite celebrations is Fourth of July. This is American Independence Day when we celebrate being independent from Britain. Last year’s Fourth of July was fantastic. The weather was great and I helped Dad with the barbecue. We cooked lots of burgers and chicken wings. My sister Louise made a special potato salad. It was delicious! In the evening we went to a huge firework display at our local park. The colours were amazing. I really enjoyed myself. I think that traditional celebrations like this one are great. I can’t wait for the next Forth of July.

Every year, between 21 January and 20 February, millions of people around the world celebrate Chinese New Year. During this festival we welcome the new year and celebrate health, wealth and happiness. There are lots of colourful street parades. People wear dragon and lion costumes and dance through the streets. It’s fantastic! After the parade, I always go to my uncle’s house for a traditional Chinese New Year’s meal. We have some delicious fish dishes and Chinese vegetables. We also have sesame seed balls called Gum Tzin. People say these bring luck for the year ahead. I’ve had a very good year, so I think that last year’s celebrations really were lucky for me!

I’ll never forget the May Day Festival we had every year when I was a little girl. On 1st May, everyone in our village used to celebrate the start of Spring with dancing, food and fun!

One of the things I liked best was the maypole dance. The children from my school made a circle around the maypole, and we covered the pole with pretty ribbons as we danced around it.

After the dancing we always had delicious food. There was a huge buffet in the village hall, with mountains of sandwiches, cakes and biscuits. At the end of the day, there was never any food or drink left, because we were so hungry after all the dancing and party games.

Today, not many English villages celebrate May day in the traditional way we used to. I always had a great time though, and I feel happy when I remember that.
