Chinese Festivals and Western Festivals in China

　　Outline: 1. 越来越多的中国人庆祝西方的节日

　　2. 有人认为中国人就应该庆祝中国自己的节日3. 你对此的看法

　　Western festivals have gained greater popularity than before in China. More and more people are willing to ceremoniously celebrate western festivals, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving day, etc.

　　On the contrary, other people believe that we Chinese should celebrate our own festivals only, like Spring Festival and Dragon-boat Festival.

　　In my opinion, both Chinese festivals and western festivals are opportunities for people’s reunion. Due to the fast pace of life, neither family members nor friends have much spare time to get together. Western festivals provide more opportunities for people to reunite besides Chinese festivals. It is true that not all the people who celebrate western festivals know the true meaning of the festivals they celebrate, but the happy feeling when they are with family and friends could be more significant. In a word, there’s nothing wrong with the celebration of western festivals, but just don’t forget our own traditional festivals.
