It is said that Jie saved his starving lord’s life by serving a piece of his own leg.

Believing that he could force Jie out by burning the mountain, the lord ordered his men to set fire to the forest. To his disappointment, Jie chose to remain where he was and was burnt to death. 【小题5】(memorize) Jie, the lord ordered all fires in every home be put out 【小题6】 the anniversary (周年纪念日) of Jie’s death. Thus began the “cold food feast”, a day when no food could be cooked since no fire could be lit.
The “cold food” festival occurs on the eve of Qing Ming and 【小题7】(consider) as part of the Qing Ming festival. As time passes, the Qing Ming festival has replaced the “cold food” festival. Whatever practice is observed, the basic observation of Qing Ming is to re-member one’s elders by making 【小题8】 special effort to visit their graves, ashes or ancestral tablets. To make the visit even 【小题9】(meaningful), some time should be spent to remind the younger members of the family of the lives and contributions of their ancestors. One of the most important 【小题10】(activity) on this day is to sweep graves to honor ancestors, dead relatives and friends.
