In some provinces of China, people use different activities to commemorate this day, for instance, spring-outing, swinging, tree planting and making special food. One special food is Ay Tsao rice balls. It looks like Tang-yuan, but its colour is green. Mix the ay tsao juice with the rice powder, then make it into small balls. The Ay Tsao rice ball is done. People believe that eating ay tsao rice balls can get rid of the bad luck and everything will go smoothly. Other activities such as spring outing, tree planting are the other ways to commemorate the forbears. For one thing, it is a sign that people should look into the future and embrace the hope; for another thing, we do hope our ancestor rest in peace.

在中国的某些省份,人们通过举行不同的活动来纪念清明节。例如,春游、荡秋千、植树以及做特殊的食物。其中一种特别的小吃叫艾粑粑。艾粑粑看起来像汤圆,但它的颜色的是绿色的。把艾草汁和糯米粉混合在一起,搓成小球,艾粑粑就做好了。人们认为吃艾粑粑能祛除邪气,让诸事顺利。其余的活动,例如春游、植树都是纪念先人的方式之一。一方面,这些活动告诉人们要展望未来,拥抱希望;另一方面,我们希望先人能安息。
