翻譯 Translation
Qingqing: Huahua, what’s wrong? Why do you look so tired? Did something happen?
Huahua: Thanks for your concern, but nothing happened. It’s just that the Lunar New Year is approaching, and I’ve been busy with the annual cleaning. It’s been exhausting!
Qingqing: Are you doing all the cleaning by yourself? That sounds really tough. Why don’t you get some help?
Huahua: My dad insists that having someone in to clean means it won’t be done as thoroughly. He believes family members should do it themselves to make the house fresh and ready for the Lunar New Year.
Qingqing: Your dad is really diligent! I believe that your whole family will have good luck and prosperity in the coming New Year!
Huahua: Thanks for your wishes. I hope the same for you. So, this weekend, you should also get moving and thoroughly clean your home to prepare for the New Year!

Like people in many other countries, Taiwanese are fond of delicious fried snacks. For example, Spain is known for its churros, and in Taiwan there is a traditional fried dessert made of sticky rice called beh teung guai. The snack consists of sticky rice flour that is mixed with water, kneaded into a dough and shaped into small pieces. Once fried, the sticky rice balls are coated in crushed peanuts and sugar mixture. 世界上有許多國家愛吃炸甜點,台灣也不例外。舉例來說,西班牙有吉拿棒,台灣人則有油炸糯米的點心──白糖粿。作法先將糯米粉和水混合揉成糰,再捏成小塊,炸好後裹上花生糖粉。 knead (v.) 揉(麵糰、黏土),捏;捏製;揉捏形成 Beh teung guai is a traditional snack that has been enjoyed by many senior citizens since
