听一分钟英文：Golden Week-黄金周

Golden¹ Week is such² a lovely time to be in Japan. The weather is great and everyone is relaxed³. There’s a real⁴ holiday feeling⁵ all over the country. It’s one of my favorite⁶ times of the year. The only down side⁷ is that the roads are full of traffic⁸. You can spend hours stuck⁹ in traffic jams. So I usually stay at home and do things near my house. I love going¹⁰ on picnics in local¹¹ parks. I’m English so I find it really interesting to see how Japanese¹² people have picnics. Very different from picnics in England. Many people have the whole¹³ week off¹⁴ work to celebrate¹⁵ the different holidays. The Emperor’s birthday and Constitution¹⁶ Day are important¹⁷ and so is Greenery Day, but I like Children’s Day. This is when Japanese parents do special things for their kids¹⁸.
