The Mid-Autumn is a very important Chinese festival.It falls on the 15th day of August.A few days before the festival,everyone in the family will help to make the house clean and beautiful.Lanterns will be hung in front of the house. In the evening there will be a big family dinner.People who works far away from their homes will try to come back for the union.After dinner,people will light the lanterns which are usually red and round.Childrens will play with their own toy lanterns happily. At night the moon is usually round and bright .People can enjoy the moon while eating moon-cakes which are the special food for this festival.They can look back on the past and look forward to the future toghter.It is said that there was a dragon in the sky.The dragon wanted to swallw up the moon.To protect the frighten the dragon away. (By the way:my English is not very good.i often make mistakes in gramer.i am looking forward to your advice.)

I am a chinese and I think the Mid-Autumn Festival is a significant festival for every Chinese. On Mid-Autumn Festival day, every chinese person will think about his/her family, especially someone can't get to home on that day. In some sense, this festival strengthen our relationship of our families.
