【答案】Dear friends,

I'm very proud that you take a keen interest in the dragon designs. In Western tales, dragons are considered evil and dangerous. But why did the ancestors of us Chinese people choose the dragon, an imaginary being, as our totem?

Long ago, as a developing agricultural country, China badly relied on abundant rainfall. The dragon was believed to rule the rivers and seas and dominate the clouds and rains. During the feudal period, the dragon served as the symbol of the emperors and imperial authority. Later we Chinese people use the term 'Descendants of the Dragon' as a sign of ethnic identity, hoping that we are brave and powerful enough like dragons to control our own fate.

Don't you think it fantastic that extraordinary historical and geographical elements have given rise to diverse cultures? If we respect and appreciate cultural differences, well live in a wonderful and colorful world.

第三步:連詞成句

I'm very proud that you take a keen interest in the dragon designs.

In Western culture, dragons are considered to be evil and dangerous.

However, our ancestors choose the dragon, an imaginary being, as our totem.

Long ago, as a developing agricultural country, China heavily relied on abundant rainfall to produce crops.

During the feudal period, the dragon served as the symbol of the emperors and imperial authority, which was the symbol of power.

With time passing, we Chinese people use the term 'Descendants of the Dragon' as a sign of ethnic identity.

Because we all hope that we can be brave and powerful enough like dragons to take control of our own fate.

I think it is fantastic that different historical and geographical elements cause cultural diversity.

We should respect and admire each other's culture, so that we can live in a peaceful and wonderful world.
