2009-04-01来源:和谐英语


The traditional Chinese Qingming festival, or Tomb Sweeping Day, falls on Sunday. It 's a day when Chinese people remember and honor their ancestors and departed loved ones at grave sites. Many have also called for public mourning, for those who fought for the independence and liberation of the Chinese nation.

An article on the Chinanews.com website, supports this appeal.(www.hXen.com)

It says that mourning national heroes publicly, helps to unite the nation.

The writer says, that some local mournings are not well organized, and the martyrs' parks are not well protected or even deserted in some places. The grave sites of some unknown heroes, have even been forgotten.
