    Very good - remember to capitalize proper nouns such as China and so on ... also the first letter in a sentence needs to be capitalized.

    Good. Some suggestions:

    "Feb 9th is the Chinese festival of lanterns. On this day, people will hang red lanterns on their doors or eaves. In general, the lanterns on the doors are bigger than those on the eaves. In (the) villages, people will dance in Chinese tradition. Because there are so many people in the cities, people will also celebrate by burning fireworks."

    Something must be wrong with Livemocha. The question appears about comparing things and you have written a story about the Lantern Festival....

    I hope they get this fixed.
