ListeningListeningListening(Page41)Pre-listening香港百名小学生为熊猫保育装饰巨型复活蛋多彩的蛋寻找复活节彩蛋的习俗，据民间传说，是由一位德国公爵夫人兴起的。据说，五彩缤纷的彩蛋是复活节兔子为乡村的孩子们留下的。孩子们把找蛋作为一种游戏。最精心制作的复活节彩蛋甚至不是真蛋。一个叫卡尔·费伯奇的俄国珠宝商曾用金、银和珠宝做成彩蛋。打开蛋还可以看到小小的人、动物、植物和房子。俄国皇帝以此作为礼物送人。复活节兔子是非常古老的复活节象征的现代说法。野兔是兔子的大个子亲戚，它是专供厄俄斯特女神用的圣物。在复活节穿新衣服的习俗是在公元后300年左右开始的，大约在第一个基督徒皇帝康斯坦丁的时代。他下令在复活节那天朝臣们都得穿最好的衣服。ListentothisconversationbetweenChenBinandhisAmericanfriend,Joey.Whatisthemaintopicoftheirconversation.ThemaintopicoftheconversationisaboutthemeaningofEasterandsomeofitstraditionalcustoms.EasteristheChristianfestivalthatcelebratesJesus'comingbacktolifefromthedead.Eastercustomsincludemakingandeatinghotcrossbuns,colouringandsearchingforeggssupposedlyhiddenbytheEasterBunnyanddecoratingwithlilies.Inwhichseason?Whocelebrates?Thereasonforthefestival?Onwhichdayoftheweek?WhatthingsrepresentEaster?Listentotheconversationagainandtakenotestofillinthefollowingchart.Inwhichseason?springWhocelebrates?ChristianaroundtheworldThereasonforthefestival?storyaboutJesuscomingbacktolifeOnwhichdayoftheweek?SundayWhatthingsrepresentEaster?hotcrossbuns,eggs,bunnies,liliesEasterCHENBIN：Hey，Joey!IwaswatchingamovielastnightthatshowedsomepeoplecelebratingEaster.WhatisEaster？JOEY:Oh,EasteristheholidayeveryspringwhenChristiansaroundtheworldcelebrateJesuscomingbacktolifefromthedead.ListeningtextCHENBIN:Comingbacktolife?JOEY:Yes,it’safamousstoryintheBibleaboutJesus.EasterisalwayscelebratedonaSunday.It’ssaidthatJesusrosefromthedeadonaSunday.PeoplewilloftengotochurchonEasterSundaytosingsongsandhearaboutJesus.CHENBIN:IsawinthemoviethatamotherwasmakinglittlecakeswithXsonthem.JOEY:OhYes.Thoseare“hotcrossbuns”.ThecrossonthebunistoremindpeoplehowJesusdied.CHENBIN:IrememberlastyearonEasteryougavemeaneggthatwaspaintedmanydifferentcolours.WhydoyoucoloureggsonEater?JOEY:That’smostlyanAmericantradition.ChildrenwillcolourtheeggsbeforeEaster.EarlyonEastermorning,parentswillhidetheeggsinsidethehouseoroutsideinthegarden.Thenwhenthechildrenwakeup,theytrytofindtheeggs.TheparentsoftensaythattheeggswereleftbytheEasterbunny.CHENBIN:TheEasterbunny?WhatdoeggsandbunnieshavetodowithJesus?JOEY:Iguessitisbecausepeoplethinktheyrepresentlife.WealsooftenhaveliliesatEastertorepresentlifethatisnewandclean.CHENBIN:SoEasterisaboutJesus,hotcrossbuns,eggs,bunniesandlilies?JOEY:Well,it’ssupposedtobeaboutJesus.Buttodaymanypeopleforgetthestoryandjustrememberthehotcrossbunsortheeggsandbunnies!SpeakingNowyouhavethechancetocreateanewfestival.Talkwithyourpartnerandmakeanameforyourfestival.Prepareashortreportaboutyournewfestivalandpresentittotheclass.Pointtodiscuss:•whenthefestivaltakesplace•whatthefestivalisfor•whatpeopledoatthefestival•whatpeopleeatatthefestivalWriteabrochureforthenewfestivalthatyouhavecreated,includingitandgivingadvicetothosewhowanttocome.Besuretoinclude：whereitwilltakeplacehowpeoplecangettherewhatkindofweatherpeopleshouldexpectwhatthingspeopleshouldbringthreethingsthatvisitorsshouldseehowmuchitwillcostYoumust...Youshould...Youcould…Youcan...Youmight…Youwould…Youwouldhaveto...Youneed…Usethefollowi...
