What to learn about festivals around the world.-----How festivals began-----How people celebrate festivalsFunctionFestivals, of many types, serve to meet specific needs, as well as to provide entertainment. These times of celebration offer a sense of belonging for religious, social, or geographical groups. Modern festivals that focus on cultural or ethnic topics seek to inform members of their traditions. In past times, festivals were times when the elderly shared stories and transferred certain knowledge to the next generation. Historic feasts often provided a means for unity among families and for people to find mates. Select anniversaries have annual festivals to commemorate previous significant occurrences.*What’s the function of festivals?Festivals serve to meet_________, as well as to provide________. These times of celebration offer a sense of ___________________.Types of festivalsThere are numerous types of festivals in the world. Though many have religious origins, others involve seasonal change or have some cultural significance. Also certain institutions celebrate their own festival (often called "fests") to mark some significant occasions in their history. These occasions could be the day these institutions were founded or any other event which they decide to commemorate periodically, usually annually.*How many types of festivals are there? ______________________________Seasonal festivalsSeasonal festivals are determined by the solar and the lunar calendars and by the cycle of the seasons. The changing of the season was celebrated because of its effect on food supply. Ancient Egyptians would celebrate the seasonal inundation caused by the Nile River, a form of irrigation, which provided fertile land for crops. In the Alps, in autumn the return of the cattle from the mountain pastures to the stables in the valley is celebrated as Almabtrieb.

Love doesn't kill or break up the barrier between them. They just wait patiently on the riverbank, believing that their love can withstand their time apart.It is faith and emotional liaison instead of physical attraction and desire that is emphasized in the story as well as in many other Chinese folk-tales （民间故事） about love.In only a few Chinese folk love stories can be found a description of the physical appearances of the hero and heroine.In the "Butterfly Lovers", the heroine, dressed as a boy to attend school, falls in love with a classmate. After they have lived together as classmates for years, the hero did not have the slightest clue that his best friend is actually a girl!1. what do you find about the story of Niulang and Zhi Nu, compared with lovestories in Western legends?2. What is it that is emphasized in the story of Niulang and Zhi Nu?3. Can a description of the physical appearances of the hero and heroine be found in all the Chinese folk love stories?BChinese CeremoniesThe seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the only Chinese festival devoted to love in the Lunar calendar.Unlike St. Valentine's Day in Western countries there is not so much emphasis on giving chocolates, flowers and kisses. Instead, Chinese girls prepare fruits, melons and incense（熏香）as offerings to ZhiNu, the weaving maiden, praying to acquire high skills in needle-craft（裁缝），as well as hoping to find satisfactory husbands.In the evening, people sit outdoors to observe the stars.
