The Story of NianThis is a story from the old days in China
People say there is a monster
It has strong arms to catch people
It has a big mouth and sharp teeth to eat them
They call it Nian
Everyone is afraid of it
At night, people close all their doors and windows
这是一个来自中国古时候的故事
人们说有一只怪兽
它有强壮的胳膊来抓住人们
它有大大的嘴巴和锋利的牙齿来吃掉他们
他们称它为年
每个人都很害怕它
在晚上,人们关上所有的门和窗户
One day, a teacher says, “Listen to me
Nian is afraid of the red colour
Let’s put red paper on our doors, windows and walls
We can also make lots of firecrackers
” 一天,一位老师说,“听我说
我们把红纸贴在我们的门上,窗户上和墙上
我们还可以制造很多爆竹
”At that night, Nian comes
It sees red lanterns at every home
