different ways to make money besides snatching(抢)red envelops.For example,they can wash cars,clean gardens,look after babies and so on.Sit down with children and talk with them about some ways they

Shi,a poet during the Song Dynasty,in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe.The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar(阴历).On this day,people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country.In ancient China,that day was a harvest(收获) festival because crops(庄稼) were harvested during that period.It was a time for relaxation and celebration.Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries,families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China.Usually,no matter how far away or how busy they are,people will try to return home for the celebration.The Mid-Autumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays.People eat moon cakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs.The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon.The full moon and moon cakes stand for family reunion(团聚).With the beautiful moon up in the sky,people sit together,enjoy the full moon,eat moon cakes and fruits,share the stories,and express the best wishes for the family members and friends.18.Who did Su Shi write the poem for in Paragraph 1?(不超过5个词)His younger brother
