Beginning of Summer 立夏

When spring is over, the summer begins. Chinese ancestors found the regular rule and they treated the fifth or sixth of May as the Beginning of Summer. From that day, the weather will become hot and most people start to wash their winter clothes. Beginning of Summer is not an official day that will be celebrated by the public. It is just a sign to show the coming of hot weather, so as to let people pay attention to keep away from hot weather. The old people trend to make some food to keep their body from getting hot, while the young people don’t have much action, and they just get used to it, or when they feel bad, they will take a break. Our body changes with the weather, so we need to make some changes to stay healthy. 
春天结束了，夏天就开始了。中国的祖先们发现了规律，他们把5月5日或6日视为夏季的开始。从那天起，天气就会变得越来越热，大多数人都会去洗冬衣。立夏不是大众庆祝的官方日子，只是一个显示炎热天气来临的标志，以便让人们注意防晒。老年人倾向于做一些食物来吃以达到防止身体变热的功效，而年轻人却是没有过多的行动，他们就单纯的习惯这样的日子，或者当他们感觉不舒服的时候，就休息一下。我们的身体随着天气的变化而变化，所以我们需要做一些改变来保持健康。
