They show changes in crop growth, temperature and other weather conditions.Today many farmers still use the 24 Solar Terms to help decide what to do in their fields. The terms also have important cultural meanings beyond farming. Some of them are connected with traditional festivals. They have had a positive effect on Chinese culture for thousands of years.divide...into... 把... ...分成... ...be connected with/to sb./sth. 与... ...有关，和... ...相联系prep.超出，除... ...之外a.正面的；积极的；肯定的n.影响，结果；效果vi.&vt. 结束，终止1 What are the uses of the 24 Solar Terms?2 Do you know any Solar Terms related to traditional festivals?Give one example.The 24 Solar Terms can help farmers decide what to do in their fields (guide farming work).
