There are a lot of kinds of folk music in China, because China has 56 nationalities and every group has its own style of music. There is a lot of poetry(诗意)in Chinese folk songs, including ideas, feelings and images. But in pop songs, there is no poetry. Each Chinese folk song has its own personality, for example, Jasmine(茉莉花), Dancing of Youth(青春舞曲)or My youth has gone away like a bird and never comes back.

Folk songs are from the people. Folk songs are like a way of serving the people, although folk songs express the feelings of the people. Chinese folk songs express the feelings, the emotions(感受)and the hopes of people about being in love or how hard it is.

“The more national, the more international.” In order to spread Chinese folk music, a forum(论坛)of folk songs called “Nanning International Festival of Folk Songs Art” is held every year. Chinese and overseas art groups and artists often perform at the opening ceremony, such as Chinese minority singers-Han Hong, Teng Ge'er and A'lilangs. The more widely it spreads, the more attention the music attracts.

Mother's Day

When I was in the third grade, Mother’s Day came around much too quickly; I found myself empty-handed with nothing to give my ____ on her special day. So I was ______ when an announcement over the loud speaker said that one of the older graders would be selling pins that said “No.1 Mom”. It may not sound like much, but to an 8-year-old, it’s perfect.

So each day I told myself that the following day I would______ the money to buy the pin, but I always forgot. And I was very disappointed when the principal and a few of the older kids selling pins came into my classroom and announced that it was the_____________day to buy them.

I was always afraid of my principal. If you stepped out of line, she was quick to set you straight. On this day, however, my principal was in a good mood. And she must have heard me tell my classmates I’d forgotten my______again. I wasn’t__________, but she knew I really wanted to buy a pin.

After she left, I got called to her office. I’d never been there – ever – so I was terrified. When I arrived, she told me to come to her desk, and she pulled out the pin I’d had my eye on for ___________. “The kids gave me this to give to my mother,” she began, “but my mom passed away, so I want you to have it.”

Taking the pin, I didn’t know what to say. I probably thanked her. I proudly presented this free luxury to my mother.

I don’t know if my mom still has the pin, and I don’t know if the principal remembers giving it to me. But I will never forget that act of__________from someone I’d never expected it from.
