Since graduation，I have been working far away from home.I am so occupied that I could only come back home on some specific occasions.This year I was fortunate enough to go home earlier to spend Spring Festival with my family.Spring Festival is one of the most important festivals in China，which marks the end of the last year and the beginning of the new year.When I arrived home，my parents were decorating our house and my sister was cleaning the house thoroughly，sweeping away the dirt of the past year.Seeing me come back，they came up to me immediately.First，I extended my congratulations to my sister on her progress in her study.Then I gave a brief description of my life in my city.The traditional food on that special day is dumplings，also called jiaozi in Chinese.We usually have a family dinner on New Year’s Eve.As far as I am concerned，being surrounded by family is the most joyful thing.After all，it is the reunion with the whole family that makes the festival so attractive.
畢業(yè)后，我一直在離家很遠的地方工作。我太忙了，只能在特定時間回家。今年我很幸運能早點回家和家人一起過春節(jié)。春節(jié)是中國最重要的節(jié)日之一，標志著去年的結(jié)束和新年的開始。當我回到家時，我父母正在裝飾我們的房子，我妹妹正在徹底打掃房子，掃除過去一年的灰塵。看到我回來了，他們立刻向我走來。首先，我祝賀我妹妹在學習上取得的進步。然后，我簡要描述了我在我的城市的生活。那個特殊日子的傳統(tǒng)食物是餃子。我們通常在除夕吃年夜飯。在我看來，被家人包圍是最快樂的事情。畢竟，正是與全家團聚讓這個節(jié)日如此吸引人。

Diwali is a festival of lights observed in October or November each year in Canada.During the festival，various community groups，businesses，schools and associations celebrate it in different ways.Some companies have Diwali dinners and some communities organize gatherings that feature firework displays，dances，street lighting，and plays.
Many women wear fine jewelry and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali.Some women and girls use Mehendi，a dye decoration which can last a limited time，on their palms，and then they will finally get colorful hand paintings.Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets，salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs(香料)．Various lights，candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes，particularly in courtyards，on Diwali.Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities.There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali.Some Indian businesses may close early on Diwali.
Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honor Rama，a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons(惡魔)．In the past，people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons.At the same time，every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance.It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune，Lakshmi travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure，clean，and bright.
Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”．As the word “Diwali” means “a row or cluster of light”，the festival symbolizes the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness.

Many women wear fine jewelry and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali.Some women and girls use Mehendi，a dye decoration which can last a limited time，on their palms，and then they will finally get colorful hand paintings.Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets，salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs(香料).Various lights，candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes，particularly in courtyards，on Diwali.Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities.There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali.Some Indian businesses may close early on Diwali.
Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honor Rama，a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons(惡魔).In the past，people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons.At the same time，every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance.It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune，Lakshmi travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure，clean，and bright.
