M: Morning, Mary!

W: Morning. It is pouring outside. How did you get here?

M: I took a taxi.

W: How long did it take you?

M: Well, about 40 minutes. It's about the same time as I usually ride my motorcycle.

W: Why not try public transportation?

M: There is no direct bus from my home to the office, and the nearest subway station is 15 minutes' walk.

W: Pity you!

M: How about you? Do you take public transportation?

W: Me either. I often sleep in. That gives me no other option but to take a taxi for 20 minutes.

M: That saves time but costs a lot. It's time for the meeting. Hurry up!

W: Simon, can you imagine I forgot to remind the boss of the important meeting?

M: What an awkward mistake! As a secretary, you shouldn't forget to keep the boss informed of all the important schedules.

W: I certainly know it, but this morning I didn't feel very well, so...

M: That's really a silly mistake. Any small mistake may cost our company great losses.

W: I understand what you mean. It makes me look incapable. I'm afraid I will be fired. How can I fix it?

M: Apologize to him and give an explanation.

W: I hope our boss will forgive me. I really don't want to lose my job.

M: Relax. I believe he will take your condition into careful consideration.

W: You are so sweet.

M: How amazing Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics are! Do you think so, Linda?

W: You can say that again, Tom! I like the opening ceremony most. Did you go there to watch any game?

M: No, but my friend Jack Ma was a volunteer there. As the event is over, visitors are allowed to go into the stadium. He invited us to visit it and other sporting venues next weekend.

W: That doesn't appeal to me. It's freezing cold. Besides, I have just come back from a winter camp.

M: You have been expecting to learn how to ski. Now it is the perfect time.

W: But I have planned to take a local trip, which is money-saving.

M: Come on. Jack told me there is an awesome ice lake, beautiful snow, and various winter sports. He has already reserved a hotel for us nearby.

W: Well, I can't say no. But I have already agreed to do something with my friend Susan at that time.

M: She's going, too.

W: Really? Then...I guess I'll go.

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides a year into 24 solar terms. The Spring Equinox, the fourth term of the year, falls on March 20 this year. It signals the equal length of the day and night time. Here are some interesting things you can do on that day.

Standing an egg upright is a popular game across the country. It is an old custom that dates back 4,000 years. People practice this tradition to celebrate the coming of spring. It is believed that if someone can make the egg stand, he will have good luck in the future. Some believe that the Spring Equinox is the best time to practice this game because of the earth's relatively balanced position, which makes it easier to make an egg stand upright.

The Spring Equinox is also a good time to fly kites. In ancient times, people did not have good medical resources. So to pray for health, they wrote their medical issues on paper kites. When the kite was in the air, people would cut off the string to let the paper kite go with the wind, symbolizing the diseases' going away. Later flying kites developed into a popular game of spring. On this day, people write a wish on the kite, hoping that their dreams can come true.
