你最喜欢的中国节日是哪一个？What is your favorite Chinese holiday?

中秋节，因为中秋节的月亮非常圆, 圆圆的月亮是团圆的象征。“但愿人长久，千里共婵娟”这句诗也寄托了人们的美好愿望。

My favorite Chinese holiday is the Mid-Autumn festival because the moon on that night is very round, and a round moon is a symbol of reunion. There is a Chinese poem: “May we all be blessed with longevity. Though far apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together.” This poem expresses feelings of hope and good wishes.
