4．The Dragon Boat festival is on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month．It's a time for zongzi and racing dragon boats．Zongzi is sticky （粘的） rice cooked in leaves．People enjoy different kinds of zongzi．There are different things inside each one，such as meat，chestnut and even egg yolk（蛋黃）!
Dragon boat racing is，of course，a big part of the festival．These boats look like dragons．They race in rivers and lakes．Teams row their boat as fast as they can to try to finish first．A drummer often stands at the front of the boat to set the pace．
On this day，families put felon herb （艾草） on their front door．Some also eat salted duck eggs or drink some rice wine．
There is a sad story behind this day．Qu Yuan was a poet．He lived in the state of Chu during the Warring States Period （戰(zhàn)國時期，475-221BC）．He loved his country，but he lost hope for it．So Qu threw himself into the Miluo River in Hunan．It was on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277BC．People threw rice into the river and drove boats to try to scare fish away from his body．
