writen by liu kai from China
In Chinese May 1 to May 7 is a holiday. It calls Labour Day. In order to let the workers have a good rest.During the holiday people don't need to work,they all go out of home.Some body go shopping,some body to travalling...... Every body are relax and with smile during this seven days. People cost a lot of money to pass their holiday.So every factory calls this holiday golden week |

| There is a Labor Day in America as well,but what I like best about the Chinese Labor Day is that we get 7 days off. |

7-day holiday is just a piece of cake, compared with my summer holiday (45 days  ) . BTW, I am a medicine teacher. |

I just finished my work as a volunteer for blindmen hospital(amount to 10 days), and now I have other 35 days off. so recently, I just wanna surf internet to learn english. On August 15, I am gonna go to HuangShan (a famous Chinese showplace) to participate in a medicine conference.
Toe, I guess you are an english teacher, right? how are you gonna spend your summer vacation? |

The most wonderful thing about being a teacher is that you take a long summar vacation  . I didn't know that there was a Labour Day in both China and America. We don't have here in the UAE. |
