Interesting Knowledge About Time
What is a time zone?
A time zone exists when you move from east to west on the earth.
| Place | Time |
| Beijing,China | 4 p.m. |

| New York,the USA | 3 a.m. |
| Tokyo,Japan | 5 p.m. |

We just learned how time zones work in different places. Now let’s talk about a special Chinese way to follow time—the 24 Solar Terms(节气).
For thousands of years,Chinese farmers have used these terms like a nature calendar. They tell us when seasons change and help people know the best time to plant crops or prepare for weather changes.
