At this time, the school began to have a holiday. This holiday is a cold winter in China, and it is called winter vacation. Winter vacation usually ends on the fifteenth day of the first month.

The next semester begins in mid-February in spring (the 16th day of the first lunar month) and ends in early or mid-July, and the school begins to have a holiday again. This holiday coincides with the hottest summer in China, and the heat is pressing, so it is called summer vacation.
