The running of the bulls is a nine-day traditional Spanish festival in honor of Saint Fermin in Pamplona. Every year, at midday on July 6th, the Mayor of Pamplona shoots a rocket. 【小题1】 The participants are usually dressed in white and wear red neckchiefs and belts. They open champagne(香槟酒) mostly used for sprinkling(撒) other people.

【小题2】 It starts every day at eight in the morning and the runners run, sometimes wildly, sometimes less. As a sign that the run has begun they shoot the first rocket. Then they shoot the second one when the bulls are out in the streets. Six bulls which are trying to attack the participants from behind run down the 900-meter-long street to the bullring with a lot of spectators. 【小题3】 All of the six bulls are going to be killed at the bullfight in the stadium.

The bullfight in the stadium begins at half past six in the afternoon. First, there comes the first bull. There is also a person called “picador”.【小题4】That makes the bull very wild and it starts to run all over the stadium. Later when the bull is tired, there comes another person----a “matador” who kills it with an arrow. 【小题5】 At the end of the celebration, another rocket is shot as a sign that the bullfight is finished.
