具体如下:
你猜怎么了?我两周后要去清迈(泰国城市)。
哇,听起来好玩极了!但是我觉得在那里四月是最热的月啊。
是的,你说的没错。但在那里从四月13日到15日有一个泼水节。
我想知道它是否跟云南傣族泼水节一样。
恩,我想是的。这个时间是泰国新年。人们上街,把水泼向彼此。
但是为什么他们要这样做呢?
因为新年是洗去坏东西的时候。然后你在新的一年会获得幸运。
原文:
Guess what? I'm going to Chiang Mai in two weeks.
Wow, that sounds fun! But I think April is the hottest month there.
Yes, you're right. But there is a water sprinkling Festival from April 13 to 15.
I wonder if it is the same as the Dai water sprinkling festival in Yunnan.
Well, I think so. This time is the Thai new year. People took to the streets and poured water on each other.
But why did they do that?
Because the new year is the time to wash away bad things. Then you will be lucky in the new year.
