The Birth Of A Festival
You probably know that Christmas,the Spring Festival and Ramadan are important holidays in the world．But have you heard about Kwanzaa?Kwanzaa is a seven-day festival celebrating the culture and history of African Americans．The week following Christmas Day,many African-American families get together to greet the new year and think about the past．
African Americans have a long history and a rich culture,but Kwanzaa is a young holiday．Kwanzaa was born in 1966,when people created a new festival so that African Americans would be able to celebrate their history and culture．The people who created Kwanzaa used the word for“first fruit”in Swahili,one of the largest languages in Africa．They chose the word because there are many festivals in Africa called“first-fruit”festivals．The African first-fruit festivals had many things in common：people would get together to celebrate their harvest；they used to give thanks for their harvests and for life；they used to honour their ancestors,celebrate their past,and the group or society they lived in．The festivals were a way to celebrate history and culture,as well as the new year.

节日的起源
你可能知道世界著名的节假日,圣诞节,春节和斋月.但是你听说过宽扎节吗?宽扎节是非裔美国人的文化和历史上一个庆祝日为期7天的的节日.圣诞节接下来的一周,许多非裔美国人一起辞旧迎新.
非裔美国人有着悠久的历史和丰富的文化,但宽扎节是一个新的节日,它起源于1966年,非裔美国人为了歌颂他们的历史和文化而创造了这个节日.节日里“宽扎”这个词在非洲的一个最大的语种,斯瓦希里语里是“首次收果”的意思,他们选择这个词是因为在非洲有很多节日被称为“首次收果节”.非洲人的首次收果节日有很多共同的特点：人们会聚在一起庆祝他们的收获；他们会向他们的丰收和生活做感恩祷告,人们很尊敬他们的祖先,歌颂过去,组织一些社团,这种节日是歌颂历史和文化,也是庆祝新年的一种方式.
另外,除了上面的,这些个单词我也一点一点打上来了,累死了,这是不是人教版的?我们怎么没有这么多单元,我学的是外研版的,这都是我自己写的,放心吧,不是从别的地方抄来的
