Mặt trời lặn trong một thời gian dài. Đêm dịu dàng té ngã. Cầu nguyện sâu, lấp lánh tất cả các ngôi sao. Ở cuối làng, mặt trăng đang dần dần mọc lên từ rừng tre trong màn sương mỏng. Con ếch trống khuấy động không khí lặng lẽ ở nông thôn. Hôm nay là trăng tròn vào tháng 8, chúng tôi rất vui mừng chuẩn bị cho Lễ hội Trung thu.
Tôi cung cấp cho bạn nến để chào đón mặt trăng. Quả bưởi màu vàng được rám nắng, thân cây xanh tươi được đặt ở giữa, được bao quanh bởi hoa hồng đỏ tươi, chín muồi. Ớt chuối cay với đậu phộng. Chiếc nhẫn ngọc trai được bọc trong lá sen tươi. Các bánh nướng thịt lợn được nép mình với nhau trong cái nhìn mới buồn cười! Một mùi hương ngọt ngào lan tỏa trong không gian là tiếng cười bận rộn của tiếng trẻ con trộn lẫn với tiếng ếch trống.
Những chiếc đèn lồng nhảy múa trong đêm như kéo ra khỏi tay cầm để bay lên trời với mặt trăng. Ngôi làng tràn ngập ánh bạc lung linh cùng với tiếng nói của những đứa trẻ vang vọng vang dội. Đèn xong, chúng tôi tổ chức lễ hội. Mọi người thắp sáng và thắp đèn để nhìn nhau cười vui vẻ. Nhảy kẹo trong khay, họ cũng muốn chơi Tết Trung thu! Mọi người ngồi ở bàn, vui sướng. Không bao giờ hạnh phúc như tối nay.
Bạn và bạn bè của bạn trong làng cả năm, nhóm lại với nhau trong một hàng dọc theo con rắn rắn để lấy đèn của Lễ hội Trung thu. Ngôi sao đèn giấy, đèn cá chép ... với ngọn lửa nhấp nháy với ánh trăng tạo thành một cái. Chúng tôi đang chán, chúng tôi phá vỡ ngân hàng. Trong khay là một phần của chị Hằng và Cường. Đôi khi tôi nhìn lên, tôi cảm thấy như họ đang mỉm cười với chúng tôi và sau đó giữ một kẹo dính vào phần mà họ cung cấp cho họ.
Sông nước cũng như không khí hân hoan của đêm trăng tròn. Bầu trời trong trẻo, vậy tại sao không, lấp lánh. Trăng tròn tỏa sáng rực rỡ. Mặt trăng khi nghệ sĩ trải rộng bề mặt của bạc sáng bạc. Rồi con sông yên lặng như một giấc mơ ngắm nhìn bầu trời đêm. Con sông che giấu trăng tròn vào tận đáy lòng. Gió nghịch ngợm, liên tục lắc những gợn sóng đánh vào bờ.
Quan sát bầu trời, cây cối trong một lúc, đột nhiên ... Tôi đột nhiên nghĩ nếu không có sao trăng sao? Nó phải có màu đen, mượt, lạnh và tối, khắp nơi trên không trung. Sẽ không có những cảnh vui nhộn, những chiếc đèn lồng bận rộn, nhưng chỉ thấy sự trống rỗng kỳ lạ. Tôi càng nghĩ, mặt trăng càng nhiều. Ánh sáng lớn chỉ có một nhưng hai
The 19th century was a period of great change in the history of the USA. After the U.S. civil war, the Southerners were not happy with the situation which they were forced to face. The slaves were liberated, even the ones that wished to continue the old way of living. The economy of the South had gone down considerably and there was little opportunity for honest work. The growing number of blacks living as free men next to their former owners nourished the anger of some Southerners. The South was a wasteland both financially and psychologically. This resulted in the formation of secret societies, the Ku Klux Klan being the most infamous of them.
Six Confederate veterans, all in their twenties, founded the Klan. They also started the typical Klan clothing: a white robe and white "witches" hats with eyeholes. However, the purpose of this original form of the Ku Klux Klan was not political or even racist. The main aim of the Klan at the beginning was to play pranks and have fun. All of the Klan members had to attend the weekly gatherings, which "were held in the cellar of a deserted brick house standing on a hill ".
This secret society of bored young men started gradually enlarging. Soon the pranks of the original Klan were designated mainly towards the liberated slaves. They held particularly the Negroes in terror who had gained land and prospered. The original, fairly innocent secret society turned into a blood-thirsty group. By 1870 The Ku Klux Klan and their operation had been made known all through the States, mostly in a negative way. During the late 1950s and early 1960s there were several blacks murdered, and houses bombed. The Klansmen were dedicated to cutting this "bad weed" out of the American soil. It reacted strongly against the Civil Rights movement and opposed Martin Luther King. This form of the Ku Klux Klan was extremely political.
The Klan is still fairly active in the USA today. However, the times were changing and there was no point attacking blacks, as the Civil Rights movement could not be erased. It seems the violent Klan of the 1960s has changed into a society controlled by strict rules and honour codes. The members of the Klan are now dedicated to protecting the white race and the "proper Christian religion". They declare that they have the same right to preach for white power as the blacks have to being proud of their origins. The main form of action in today's Klan is protests, rallies and Internet shows. It seems that the modern Klan still fosters some of the main ideas of the Ku Klux Klan but in a more peaceful and rational way.

Up to about 1915, movies were shot and programs were made up of several works. Then, D.W.Griffith and others began to make longer films that provided the same powerful emotional appeal as did melodrama and presented spectacles far beyond what the theater could offer. Consequently, after World War I increasing numbers of spectators deserted the theater for the movies. This trend was accelerated in the late 1920s as a result of two new elements. In 1927 sound was added to the previously silent film, and thus one of the theater's principal claims to superiority vanished. In 1929 a serious economic depression began. Since audiences could go to the movies for a fraction of what it cost to see a play, theater going became a luxury that few could afford, especially as the depression deepened. By the end of World War II, the American theater had been reduced to about thirty theaters in New York City and a small number of touring companies originating there.
