    Yoko在日本過(guò)節(jié)日,她過(guò)的是什么節(jié)又有什么風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣呢?
    Todd: OK, Yoko we were just at a festival.
    Yoko: Yeah!
    Todd: Do you want to talk about festivals in Japan?
    Yoko: Yes, OK. So, I think in Fall we have lots of kind of festivals, but it depends on the places so...
    Todd: What are some things that most festivals have, like, what can you see if you go to a Japanese festival?
    Yoko: Omikoshi.
    Todd: Omikoshi.
    Yoko: Yes. Do you know the word?
    Todd: I think so. What is Omikoshi?
    Yoko: Ah, it's really difficult for me to explain in English, but Omokishi looks like a big box, lots of people, adult people try to carry together, and they usually go to temples, and they kind of celebrate a harvest or our happiness or those kind of things.
    Todd: OK. Have you ever carried the Omikoshi?
    Yoko: Ah, you know, I'm not a strong guy so, I've never tried it.
    Todd: OK. What about foods? What kind of foods do people like to eat?
    Yoko: We can see lots of small shops along the street and we can buy really Japanese food, like watagashi, it's a really sweet candy but it looks like, how do you say that?
    Todd: I don't know.
    Yoko: I don't know. I don't know either. White small stuff.
    Todd: White small stuff.
    Yoko: Yeah. Sorry. You should see it. So it's watagashi or watame. It's really popular food in a matsuri, and we can see okonomiyaki. Yeah, it's, some people say Japanese pancake, or something, but tastes different.
    Yoko: It's not sweet.
    Todd: It's not sweet.
    Yoko: It's not sweet. So vegetables, meat, and some sauce.
    Todd: Oh, wow! Sounds good.
    Yoko: Yeah, I think so too. You should try it.
    Todd: Oh, I will! Thanks a lot Yoko.
