文都小编推荐：
农历五月初五是端午节。两千多年来，端午节一直是一个多民族的全民健身、防疫祛病、避瘟驱毒、祈求健康的民俗佳节。
端午节又名端阳节、重午节，据传是中国古代伟大诗人、世界四大文化名人之一的屈原投汩罗江殉国的日子。两千多年来，每年的农历五月初五就成为了纪念屈原的传统节日。史料记载，公元前278年农历五月初五，楚国大夫、爱国诗人屈原听到秦军攻破楚国都城的消息后，悲愤交加，心如刀割，毅然写下绝笔作《怀沙》，抱石投入汨罗江，以身殉国。沿江百姓纷纷引舟竞渡前去打捞，沿水招魂，并将粽子投入江中，以免鱼虾蚕食他的身体。这一习俗绵延至今，已有两千多年。
---What is your favorite holiday? (reference: Spring Festival ,Mid-autumn Festival, Thanksgiving Day, Easter , Christmas, etc.)
---Dragon Boat Festival is my favorite festival. The Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar holiday, occurring on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival has been declared a “world intangible cultural heritage” by UNESCO. On that day, Chinese people always eat rice dumplings and watch dragon boat races to celebrate it. The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes. Along the bank is the hustle and bustle of large crowds. The rice dumpling is made of glutinous rice, meat and so on. You can eat different kinds of rice dumplings, which are very delicious. And Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan, a righteous and brilliant poet in Warring States Period who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in MiLuo River of Hunan Province. Overall, the Dragon Boat Festival is very interesting!
