Every year there is a Spring Festival in China. Usually it is in January or February. It is the most important festival in China. So before it comes， everyone has to prepare things. They buy pork， beef， chicken， fruits and many other things. And they often make a special kind of food—“dumplings”. It means “come together”. On the day before the festival， parents buy new clothes for their children. Children also buy presents for their parents. On the Spring Festival Eve（除夕）， all the family members come back to their hometown. This is a happy moment. Some sing and dance， some play cards and others get the dinner ready. When they enjoy the meal， they give each other the best wishes for the coming year. They all have a good time.

Are you interested in country music? I like it very much !It will take me away for a while after I am tired . The guitars and songs will take me to mountains and fields. Country music usually talks of everyday life and feelings. It’s the spirit（精神） of America ,easy to understand ,slow and simple.

Country music developed in the Southern United States. It was the folk music of American countryside. Many of songs tell about the lives of famers . They talk about love, crops（庄家） or death.

The life of the countryside can be hard, so the words in country music are often sad. At first, people played the music only at family parties. But it became more popular later. In the 1920s,people played country songs on the radio, and they made them into records.

When people in the countryside moved to towns and cities to look for work, they took their music with them. Country music continued to change and became popular across America.

John Denver was one of America’s most famous country singers in the 1970s. His song “Take Me Home, Country Roads” is well-known and people still play it today.
