Friday morning, during the large break.
Students were originally resting in the classroom, but as class was about to start, they were shocked by a message from the class monitor, Huang Zhongfei.
"The Dragon Boat Festival is coming up, and they're going to cancel our two afternoon classes today," Huang Zhongfei announced standing on the podium.
"Damn, doesn't that mean, after classes this morning, we can go straight home?" Guo Kunnan exclaimed excitedly, an early holiday, how cool!
Huang Zhongfei quickly explained, "No, no, this afternoon our school is organizing a dragon boat race."
Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished, and the entire classroom erupted with voices, full of enthusiastic fervor!
To celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival with a dragon boat race, they had of course heard of it, but such events only existed in their imaginations or they had watched them on TV.
