Dragons are not real animals, but they look like a combination(结合体) of many animals, such as snakes, fish, and deer. They have two horns and a long mustache(胡子). With fantastic power, they fly in the sky or swim in the sea. They can make rain, too. The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and good luck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.

We are proud to call ourselves the "descendants(传人) of the dragons". In China, "excel-lent" people are often called "dragons". A number of Chinese sayings and idioms talk about dragons, for example, "Hoping, one's child will become a dragon", which means hoping one's child will be successful.

It is said that people born in the Year of the Dragon have certain characters(性格). They are creative, confident, brave and quick-tempered. There are some famous "dragons" who have done excellent things, like the great man Deng Xiaoping who was born on August 22nd in 1904, the famous businessman Li Jiacheng and the movie star Zhao Wei. They are all successful.

There are also some traditional festivals in China, such as the Dragon Head-Raising Day and the Dragon Boat Festival. We have different kinds of activities to celebrate them. These two festivals come every year, but the year of the Dragon comes every twelve years.

The dragon is very important in Chinese culture. As the" descendants of the dragons", it is necessary for us to know the views on dragons in our culture. It can help us understand why our parents always want us to be "dragons".

Lanterns have been part of Chinese culture for centuries and play an important part in many celebrations. In ancient times, there were mainly three kinds of lanterns:

Palace lantern(宫灯)

When making palace lanterns, fine wood was used. The palace lanterns were covered with silk or glass. Different kinds of pictures were drawn on the covers. These lanterns were not only used as lights but also as decorations(装饰)in palaces.

Gauze lantern(纱灯)

Less expensive bamboo and gauze were used to cover the lantern. Red gauze was used when making them. So red lanterns are always hung on important festivals such as Lantern Festival, Spring Festival and National Day in parks or along main streets. In some famous Chinatowns(唐人街)abroad, you can see red lanterns all the year round.

Shadow-picture lantern(走马灯)

It was usually used for amusement. There were two layers(层) of covers and pictures were drawn on the inside layer. When the candle was lit(被点燃), the heat caused a paper wheel inside the lantern to turn around, so that moving pictures appeared on the outside cover.

Now more kinds of lanterns appear in festivals besides the traditional ones. More modern technology is used on making lanterns.

A. In Chinese culture, red lanterns are symbols of happiness.

B. The shapes of the modern lanterns have changed a lot too.
