汉字 #

今天是2026年4月5日，清明节。小明和丽丽跟着爸爸妈妈一起去山上扫墓。天气很好，天空是蓝色的，春风轻轻地吹着。

他们带了鲜花和食物去祭祖。妈妈把花放在墓前，爸爸点上了香。小明和丽丽站在旁边，安静地看着。小明心里有一点难过，因为他觉得这是一件很重要的事情。

扫完墓以后，他们走下山。路边有很多绿色的草和黄色的小花。丽丽看见了一大片空地，突然很高兴。

丽丽说：“小明，我们去放风筝吧！我带了一个大风筝！”

小明说：“真的吗？太好了！我也很想放风筝。你的风筝是什么颜色的？”

丽丽说：“是红色和黄色的，很漂亮！你看，就在我的包里。”

小明说：“哇，真漂亮！我们快去吧！风很大，今天一定可以放得很高！”

丽丽说：“对！我们比一比，看谁的风筝放得更高！”

小明笑着说：“好啊！不过你要小心，上次我放风筝放得比你高多了！”

丽丽笑着说：“哈哈，这次我会赢的！走吧走吧！”

爸爸妈妈也笑了，他们一起走向那片空地。风筝很快就飞起来了。小明的风筝飞得很高，丽丽的风筝也飞得很高。两个风筝在蓝色的天空里一起飞着，非常好看。

爸爸看着天空说：“你们两个都放得很好。”

妈妈说：“今天天气真好，空气也很新鲜。”

小明深深地吸了一口气，说：“是啊，春天的空气真好闻。”

丽丽说：“我很喜欢清明节。我们可以来祭祖，也可以出来玩。”

爸爸点点头说：“清明节让我们记住家人，也让我们感受春天。这两件事都很重要。”

大家都觉得爸爸说得很对。太阳慢慢地往西边走，天色开始变暗。他们收起风筝，一起走回家。小明和丽丽手里还拿着风筝的线，心里感到很快乐、很满足。这是一个很特别的清明节。

English Translation #

Today is April 5th, 2026, Qingming Festival. Xiao Ming and Lili follow their mum and dad up the mountain to sweep the ancestral graves. The weather is very nice, the sky is blue, and the spring breeze blows gently.

They brought flowers and food to offer to their ancestors. Mum placed the flowers in front of the grave, and Dad lit incense. Xiao Ming and Lili stood quietly to the side, watching. Xiao Ming felt a little sad inside, because he felt this was a very important thing.

After finishing sweeping the grave, they walked down the mountain. Along the road there was lots of green grass and small yellow flowers. Lili noticed a large open field and was suddenly very happy.

Lili said: “Xiao Ming, let’s go fly kites! I brought a big kite!”

Xiao Ming said: “Really? That’s great! I really want to fly kites too. What colour is your kite?”

Lili said: “It’s red and yellow, very pretty! Look, it’s right in my bag.”

Xiao Ming said: “Wow, it really is pretty! Let’s go quickly! The wind is strong, today we can definitely fly them very high!”

Lili said: “That’s right! Let’s compete and see whose kite flies higher!”

Xiao Ming said with a smile: “Sure! But be careful — last time I flew my kite much higher than yours!”

Lili said laughing: “Haha, this time I’ll win! Let’s go, let’s go!”

Mum and Dad laughed too, and they all walked toward the open field together. The kites flew up quickly. Xiao Ming’s kite flew very high, and Lili’s kite flew very high too. The two kites flew together in the blue sky, looking wonderful.

Dad looked up at the sky and said: “You two both flew them very well.”

Mum said: “The weather is really nice today, and the air is very fresh.”

Xiao Ming took a deep breath and said: “Yes, the spring air really smells wonderful.”

Lili said: “I really like Qingming Festival. We can come to pay respects to our ancestors, and also come out to play.”

Dad nodded and said: “Qingming Festival helps us remember our family, and also lets us feel the spring. Both of these things are very important.”

Everyone felt that what Dad said was very right. The sun slowly moved toward the west, and the sky began to grow dark. They packed up the kites and walked home together. Xiao Ming and Lili still held the kite strings in their hands, feeling very happy and satisfied inside. It was a very special Qingming Festival.

Grammatical Points and Analysis #

Verb-Object Phrases #

• 扫墓 (sǎo mù) — “sweep the grave”; a fixed verb-object phrase used as a traditional Qingming activity
• 放风筝 (fàng fēngzhēng) — “fly a kite”; another common verb-object phrase where 放 means “to release/let go”
• 点香 (diǎn xiāng) — “light incense”; 点 here means “to light/ignite”
• 吸气 (xī qì) — “to breathe in/inhale”; 吸 is the verb, 气 is the object (air/breath)

The 把 (bǎ) Construction #

• 妈妈把花放在墓前 (māma bǎ huā fàng zài mù qián) — “Mum placed the flowers in front of the grave.” The 把 construction moves the object (花) before the verb (放) to emphasize the result or disposal of the object. Pattern: Subject + 把 + Object + Verb + Result/Location.

Resultative Complements #

• 扫完墓以后 (sǎo wán mù yǐhòu) — 完 is a resultative complement indicating the action of sweeping the grave is completed. 以后 then marks “after” that completion.
• 飞起来了 (fēi qǐlái le) — 起来 is a directional resultative complement meaning the kite rose up into the air. 了 marks the change of state.
• 收起风筝 (shōu qǐ fēngzhēng) — 起 indicates the action of gathering/packing the kite up and away.

Degree Complements with 得 (de) #

• 放得很高 (fàng de hěn gāo) — “flew (it) very high.” The complement after 得 describes the degree or result of the action.
• 说得很对 (shuō de hěn duì) — “said (it) very correctly / was very right in what was said.” A common pattern to evaluate how well something was done.
• 飞得很高 (fēi de hěn gāo) — “flew very high.” Same structure applied to the kite’s own movement.

Comparison with 比 (bǐ) #

• 我放风筝放得比你高多了 (wǒ fàng fēngzhēng fàng de bǐ nǐ gāo duō le) — “I flew my kite much higher than you.” Pattern: A + 比 + B + Adjective. Adding 多了 after the adjective intensifies the comparison, meaning “by a lot.”
• 看谁的风筝放得更高 (kàn shéi de fēngzhēng fàng de gèng gāo) — 更 (gèng) means “even more” and is used in comparisons to mean “higher than the other.”

The 让 (ràng) Causative Structure #

• 清明节让我们记住家人 (Qīngmíng Jié ràng wǒmen jìzhù jiārén) — “Qingming Festival makes us remember our family.” Pattern: Subject + 让 + Person + Verb. 让 here means “to cause/make someone do something.”

Adverbs of Sudden Change: 突然 (tūrán) #

• 突然很高兴 (tūrán hěn gāoxìng) — “suddenly very happy.” 突然 is placed before the adjective or verb to express that something happened unexpectedly or all of a sudden.

Time Expressions with 以后 (yǐhòu) #

• 扫完墓以后 (sǎo wán mù yǐhòu) — “after finishing sweeping the grave.” 以后 follows a verb phrase or noun to indicate “after (doing something).” It is a very common connector for sequencing events in a narrative.
