Sugar painting is a traditional Chinese folk art that has a history of over 500 years. People mainly find the art of sugar painting in the northern part of China. In the past, people often saw it at festivals or in busy markets. People, especially children, loved to watch the artists make it. First, sugar is melted into sugar syrup (熔化为糖浆). Then the sugar syrup is gently dripped (滴) on a flat surface to make shapes like animals or flowers. When it cools down, the sweet artwork is taken off and often put on a bamboo stick for people to look at or eat.

To make sugar paintings, artists need special skills. They must be quick because the sugar syrup cools down quickly. They also need to have good ideas to create different shapes. The most popular shapes are animals.

Now, sugar painting is not as popular as before because of new kinds of snacks and people's busy lives. However, many people still love it. Some artists are trying to keep this traditional art going by teaching it to young people. They believe that sugar painting is not just about making sweets, but it is also about passing on the culture and history of China.

Sugar painting shows us how art and culture can be part of our lives. It shows us that traditional skills are like seeds (种子)—they need care to grow. But with new snacks and a busy life, how can we make sure these old arts don't disappear (消失)?

The festival came from an old custom. As time went by, the festival developed into a celebration of the tea harvest. Now, local people come together on this day to enjoy the fruits of their labor (劳动).

The main activities of the festival include tea-picking competitions, tea-making demonstrations (演示) and cultural performances. During the tea-picking competitions, people try to pick as many tea leaves as possible within a given time. The one who picks the most wins. The tea-making demonstrations show the traditional methods (方法) of tea-making. These methods have been used for many years. The cultural performances include music, dance, and other forms of activities that show the local culture.

For students, it is very meaningful to take part in the festival. That is because they can learn about the local culture. By taking part in the festival, students can get a deeper understanding of the history and traditions of Yunnan. They can also learn about the importance of sustainable agriculture (可持续农业).

In a word, the Tea-Picking Festival is a special cultural event that celebrates the harvest of tea leaves in Yunnan. Through its different kinds of activities and performances, the festival provides students with a valuable chance to learn about the local culture and the importance of tea in Chinese society.
