Yesterday Channel 1 showed the programme “We Travel around the World”. It was devoted to New Zealand. New Zealand is a small country. It’s about the same size as California, but it has white beaches, volcanoes, deserts, rainforests, mountains and farmland too. Some people call New Zealand a natural park because of its amazing geography. Some part of the programme was devoted to the kiwi bird, which is New Zealand’s national symbol. By the way kiwi is the nickname for someone who is from New Zealand. Unfortunately the bird has become an endangered species. Animals like dogs and cats are killing one kiwi every two hours. Now the government is planning to make ten special areas in New Zealand to keep animals away from the kiwi.
Channel 2 showed the programme about an Afro-American festival. Its name is Kwanzaa. It is celebrated in December when Europeans celebrate Christmas and New Year. Thousands of families celebrate this festival. It started in the sixties of the previous century when many black people who lived in America wanted a special way to celebrate their culture. “Kwanzaa” means “first fruit” in the African language Swahili. It isn’t a religious festival, but it is about helping other people and working together.
Channel 3 prepared a programme devoted to celebrating spring. A lot of Europeans celebrate Easter in spring. A lot of British people give chocolate eggs and rabbits to their family and friends. Rabbits and eggs are symbols of new life in spring. But in eastern countries there is a different way to celebrate spring. Eastern church men walk barefoot on fire during the Nagatoro Fire Festival. The ceremony happens every year. The church people celebrate spring and hope for good luck and protection during the coming year.
