Laura: Aunt Shirley, I heard the Yuan Xiao Festival is the name for the festival. Why did it get its name?

Shirley: Well, the first lunar month is called Yuan-month, and in ancient times people called night Xiao. And you know the festival is just in the middle of the month.

Laura: Oh, I see. I also heard today is the last day for the street fair. Can’t wait to sample all the snacks.

Shirley: Sure. It’s indeed a culinary heaven which offers a wide range of delicious snacks to satisfy all tastes. Then, which one would you like?

Laura: Can you recommend some must-try?

Shirley: OK. Let’s go over there. For the Lantern Festival, you should never omit the Yuanxiao.

Laura: What’s that? It gets the name from the festival itself. That’s really funny!

Shirley: Actually, they are small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour. They are like Tangyun.

Laura: Oh, I know Tangyuan. It’s a sweet snack, good for dessert.

Shirley: Yes. And also, we can find Yuanxiao with both sweet and salty fillings.

Laura: I’d like to try the salty ones. Where does that strange smell come from?

Shirley: Oh, the smelly bean curd. My favorite!

Laura: What? You love smelly food?

Shirley: Well, the smell of it may be unpleasant, but it’s really delicious.

Laura: Really? You made me curious. I’d love to have a try now.

Shirley: Wise decision! I’m pretty sure that you will get addicted to it as soon as you try one bite.

Laura: Are you sure?

羅拉：雪莉阿姨，我聽說這個節(jié)日的名字是元宵節(jié)。這個名字是怎么來的呢？

雪莉：這個啊，農(nóng)歷的第一個月叫做元月，在中國古代人們把晚上叫做宵，而且你知道的，這個節(jié)目剛好是元月中間的那天。

羅拉：哦，我知道了。我還聽說過今天是廟會的最后一天呢。都等不及想吃那些小吃了。

雪莉：好啊。這絕對是一個美食的天堂，有滿足所有口味的格式美味小吃。對了，你想吃什么？

羅拉：你能推薦一些一定得嘗嘗的小吃嗎？

雪莉：好的，我們?nèi)ツ沁?。在元宵?jié)，你當然不可以錯過元宵啦。

羅拉：元宵是什么呢？它和節(jié)日是同一個名字哦。這可真有趣啊！

雪莉：其實呢，它們是用糯米粉做的小圓球，有點像湯圓。

羅拉：哦，湯圓我知道。它是一種甜的小吃，用來做甜點很好。

雪莉：是啊。不過我們的元宵有甜的還有咸的呢。

羅拉：我想嘗一下咸的。那奇怪的味道是從哪里來的??？

雪莉：哦，臭豆腐。我的最愛！

羅拉：什么？您喜歡臭的食物？

雪莉：這個啊，它的味道可能不好聞，但是它真的很美味。

羅拉：真的嗎？你勾起我的好奇心了。我現(xiàn)在很想嘗一下。

雪莉：聰明的決定！我敢肯定你只要嘗一口就會迷上它的。

羅拉：是嗎？
