Jingjing
Jingjing: Hey Mark, do you know next week we'll have a holiday?
京晶：嗨，马克，你知道下周我们要放假吗？
Mark: Another one? That's cool if we'll have a day or two off.
马克：又放假？不错呢如果我们能放一两天假。
Mark
Jingjing
Jingjing: Yeah, we'll have Monday and Tuesday off. Tuesday's the actual holiday.
京晶：是呀，下周一二休息，周二是正节日。
Mark: Hold on, I'm looking it up on my phone. You're right: it's the Dragon Boat Festival May 30th.
马克：稍等，我正查手机（日历）呢。你说得对，那天是5月30日，端午节（龙舟节）。
Mark
Jingjing
Jingjing: Do you know why the holiday is celebrated?
京晶：你知道为什么要庆祝这个节日吗？
Mark: Yeah, so we can get out of the cityfor a day or two and enjoy the great outdoorsbefore it gets to be too hot every day.
马克：嗯，在天越来越热之前，我们能够有一两天的时间离开城市，去享受美好的户外吧。
Mark
Jingjing
Jingjing: Hey, are you looking that up on your phone too? I'm trying to give you the scoop on Chinese culture.
京晶：这也是你在手机上查到的吗？我这是在带你了解中国文化呢。
Mark: I found something about Qū Yuán. Isn't that the poet who killed himself more than 2000 years ago?
马克：我找到了一些关于屈原的东西。这不是那个两千多年前自杀的诗人吗？
Mark
Jingjing
Jingjing: What do you need friends for when you've got Wikipedia? But yeah, it was during the warring states period, around 300 b.c. Do you know why he killed himself?
京晶：你都有维基百科了还需要朋友干嘛。但确实，事情发生在在公园前三百年的战国时期。你知道他为什么要自杀吗？
Mark: Is there ever a good reason? Well, it says here he drowned himself in a river because he was depressed about having beenexiled. But before that, he had written a bunch of folk tales and poems.
马克：这还需要理由吗？这里说他是溺水而亡因为对流放的命运感到绝望。但在那之前，他创作了不少民歌和诗句。
Mark
Jingjing
Jingjing: Where does the tradition of dragon boats come from then? Any ideas about that one?
京晶：那赛龙舟的习俗又从何而来呢？知道吗？
Mark: Some people wanted to rescue Qū Yuán. So, it's a tradition, now, to go out on the river in dragon-shaped boats.
马克：有些人要去把他救起来，所以，这就成了一个传统。如今，人们就在水上划着龙形的小舟。
Mark
Jingjing
Jingjing: Are you going to try to find a dragon boat next weekend?
京晶：下周末你会想办法找一条龙舟吗？
Mark: Maybe I'll rent a kayakat Beidaihe—and, if not there, then just Houhai.
马克：也许我会去北戴河租一艘皮划艇吧。如果不去那儿的话，就在北京的后海吧。
