Jony：Dragon Boat Festival is coming. What are you planning to do？
端午節快到了耶你打算做些什麼?

Amy：I’m going to watch dragon boat races on TV and eat rice dumplings with my family. How about you？
我要和家人邊吃肉粽邊在電視上看龍舟比賽。你呢？

Jony：I’m going to make my own fragrant sachet with some of my friends from Canada. Also, tell them the origin of the custom of Dragon Boat Festival.
我要和一些來自加拿大的國朋友一起做香包。順便告訴他們一些關於端午節習俗的由來。

Amy：Oh！That’s good！Even though I’m Taiwanese, I’m still not quite familiar with the origin of these customs. I only know the origin of eating rice dumpling is because after Qu Yuan committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, people threw rice dumplings into the river to prevent his body from being eaten by fish.
那樣很好欸！雖然我是個台灣人，但我對這些習俗的由來也不是很熟悉。我只知道吃粽子的由來是因為屈原在投汨羅江自盡後，人們為了防止他的屍體不被魚吃掉，所以將粽子投入江中。

Jony：Yes, you are right. And the reason why people make fragrant sachets and hang calamus and moxa above doors is to avoid bad luck and disease. By the way, do you know why people balance an egg at noon during the Dragon Boat Festival?
對的，你說的沒錯。人們製作香包和掛艾草菖蒲的原因則是為了避免壞運氣和疾病，順帶一提，你知道為什麼人們要在端午節的正中午立蛋嗎？

Amy：I know！It’s because people believe that those who can balance an egg at noon during the Dragon Boat Festival will have good luck the whole year.
我知道！這是因為人們相信在端午節中午成功立蛋的人一整年都會很幸運。
