The most important festival in China is the Spring Festival.It is said that the Spring Festival evolved from an activity known as the Winter Sacrifice.It was a custom practiced by the people of primitive society.The Spring Festival marks the beginning of the Chinese Lunar New Year,so the first meal is rather important.People usually eat Jiaozi or dumplings shaped like a crescent moon on that special day.As for recreational activities during the Sping Festival, the Dragon Dance and Lion Dance are traditionally performed.One legend goes that the beast Nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite.People were very scared.传说有一个叫“年”的怪兽,有一个大嘴,能一口吞下很多人。人们都很怕它。
