选项
答案                         The Dragon Boat Festival
    The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the 5 th day of the 5 th lunar month, a calendar used for agriculture purpose in China.
    The festival is celebrated especially in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, but people of several ethnic groups throughout China and the world are also having celebrations on this day. The heroes we celebrate this festival for vary from region to region, but the best known reason is to commemorate the death of Qu Yuan, an upright and honest poet and governmental official in the State of Chu, who committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.
    Eating Zongzi, dumplings made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves, and racing dragon boats are the most commonly observed customs for this festival. While for people around me and myself, the Dragon Boat Festival is usually observed by eating Zongzi in our university cafeteria, and only some of us would opt to enjoy the boat racing on television. It seems that traditional Chinese festivals, such as the Dragon Boat Festival, are gradually fading away from our horizon. The foods we eat on those holidays have become a more important reminder for us.
    Since they are an important ingredient in our tradition and culture, we surely should attach more importance to the understanding and celebration of our own festivals.
解析     本题是一篇自由发挥型题目，和以往的试题在写作思路上有较大差异。提纲要求主要从两个角度进行写作，分别是对端午节的介绍和对自己以及身边的人们如何庆祝端午节的介绍。在写作过程中，考生需要注意两个部分的衔接和区分，对于端午节的介绍，我们可以更多地集中在日期、历史和意义等层面，同时要注意关于庆祝方式的介绍，避免出现雷同或相似的信息。对于端午节了解有限的同学，可以从节日意义、庆祝方式等角度更多地借鉴节日的一般描述，比如，人们越来越多地关注和过节有关的某种特色食物，而忽略了节日最重要的文化价值和对家庭的凝聚力作用，这些角度用来讨论包括端午节在内的各种节日都是恰当的。而作为英语专业的学生，在平时的学习过程中，注重文化常识的积累也是一门不可忽视的功课。
