二 阅读与表达
The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. In China, people created the 24 solar terms thousands of years ago to guide agricultural(农业的) production.
Rain Water is one of the 24 solar terms which stands for the increase(增加) in rainfall and rise in temperature. With its arrival, the river water melts, wild geese fly from south to north, and trees and grass turn green again.
Here are several things you may not know but can make you know about Rain Water better. Let me introduce them to you.
Rain in spring is as precious(宝贵的) as oil
According to an old Chinese saying, the rain in spring is as precious as oil. In northern China, the spring drought(旱灾) is common. And the rain of this season is only 10 to 15 per cent of yearly average(平均) rainfall. So at that time, rain is so precious and important to the crops.
Return of a cold period
A returning cold in the late spring often happens during Rain Water. The fast increase in air humidity(湿度) can result in lower temperature and wet weather. Remember not to take off your coats so early in this period.
Nutritious porridge(营养粥)
The wet weather during Rain Water is harmful to people's health according to Chinese medical practice. So a bowl of nutritious porridge is the best choice to keep the body alive and healthy.
