试题详情

Why do Chinese people refuse to cut their hair during the first month of the lunar (阴历) year?

1.. Tradition says that doing so will cause your mother’s brother die. Although it’s not true, some people still believe it.

So, after a month’s wait, people usually flock (蜂拥而至) to cut their hair on Dragon Head-Raising Day – the second lunar month. 2.. People always had to wait for a long time to get their hair cut.

Dragon Head-Raising Day fells on Feb 24 this year. 3.. Ancient people believed that after this day, rainfall would increase because the rain-bringing Dragon King would wake up from his winter sleep. So that day is the start of spring and farming.

A well-known saying goes, “On the second day of the second month, the dragon lifts his head.”

4.. For example, people eat food with “dragon names”. People call noodles dragon’s beard. (龙须). Dumplings are dragon’s ears and spring rolls (春卷) are dragon’s scales (龙鳞).

A.It is an important traditional Chinese holiday

B.Because people believe that it is the best to cut hair on Dragon Head-Raising Day

C.It was once tradition to line up outside of barber shops (理发店) on this day

D.Besides cutting their hair, there are also other ways to celebrate this holiday

E.This is because people believe that getting a haircut during the first lunar month is not a good idea

During their lives, many people experience difficulties and struggle (努力) to do something. When I lived in China, it was a hard struggle for me to learn Chinese and get used to Chinese customs.

The first day I went to school, I didn’t understand what my teachers and my classmates said. I just sat in my seat without doing anything, but when I went back home, I cried and told my mom that I wanted to leave for my homeland.

Later, however, I decided I had to study Chinese very hard, but it was very difficult to learn the language. Every day at school, I tried to talk to the Chinese students and make friends with them. When school was over, I studied Chinese at home by watching Chinese TV programs. That turned out to be a very good way to improve my Chinese. Little by little, I began to speak Chinese in school and I began to make many friends. Finally, I got a very high grade in the Chinese exam and naturally I became used to Chinese customs.

Now, I like to talk with Chinese people and I like Chinese food too. The experience of struggling to learn Chinese in China was unforgettable, and I’ll never forget the time when I learned so much.
