Daniel: Can you tell me about the special characteristics of the night fair? Is that very different from other ordinary fairs?
May: Of course. You can only see the night fairs at night; it often opens at 6:00 p.m. and it lasts for 5 or 6 hours. There are various vendor stands here.
Daniel: What do they sell there?
May: Clothes, shoes, snacks and so on. You can find just about whatever you want.
Daniel: Anything else?
May: There are also some fine art crafts, including wood carving, shell ornaments and paper-cut.
Daniel: I think our foreign friends will like them. They said they were interested in the traditional culture.
May: They surely will. We can take them to this night fair next time.
Daniel: Oh, look, there are so many people over there. What are they doing?
May: Let me see. They are watching the performance of the lion dance.
Daniel: Lion dance? I want to have a look. It sounds wonderful.
May: OK. Let’s go.
Daniel: The dancers must have exercised a lot. They move so flexibly.
May: Yes, but we should go now, since the time is limited. You can see the performance next time.
Daniel: OK. Do you want to buy something here?
May: Yes, I want to buy some hair clips.
Daniel: OK, let’s hit the trinkets stand.

丹尼爾：你能給我說說夜市的特色 嗎?它和普通的市場有很大的區別嗎?
阿美：當然可以啊。你只能在晚上才能夠看到夜市。它通常是在下午6點鐘開始，持續5到6個小時。夜市上有各種各樣的小攤子。
丹尼爾：那他們賣什么呢?
阿美：衣服、鞋子和小吃等。你能在那里找到你想要的任何東西。
丹尼爾：還有其他可以介紹的嗎?
阿美：那里還賣一些非常不錯的工藝品，比如說木雕、貝殼飾品和剪紙。
丹尼爾：我認為我們的外國朋友會喜歡這些的。他們說他們對傳統文化非常感興趣。
阿美：他們會喜歡的。下次我們可以帶他們來這個夜市。
丹尼爾：噢，看，那邊有好多人啊。他們在干什么呢?
阿美：讓我看看。他們在看舞獅。
丹尼爾：舞獅?聽起來不錯，我想去看看。
阿美：好的，走吧。
丹尼爾：那些舞獅的人肯定做了很多練習。他們移動得太靈活了。
阿美：是的，但是時間有限，我們該走了。你可以下次再看表演。
丹尼爾：好的，你想在這兒買點什么東西嗎?
阿美：想啊，我想買一些發夾。
丹尼爾：好吧，我們去小飾品店看看。
Recitation 經典背誦
Daniel: May tells me that I can only see the night fairs at night; I think that is a stupid answer. Of course, night fairs open at night; everybody knows that. Oh, just ignore her. All in all, I like watching the lion dance very much. The dancers move so flexibly. They must have practiced a lot.
