Dear John,

The Middle-Autumn Festival is one of the traditional Chinese festivals, which is often held in September or October. During the festival, family members get united and have mooncakes together. There are various kinds of mooncakes, such as bean paste, egg-yolk or meat. The shape of a mooncake is round as it symbolizes a big moon. Moreover, in the evening of the Middle-Autumn Festival, people get together in a vacant place, eating delicious mooncakes while appreciating the beautiful moon hanging in the dark sky. On that day，the moon kooks brighter and rounder. We call this moon the full moon.

To conclude, the Midde-Autumn Festival is a very nice festival for Chinese people. I love it very much
