Western festivals gain ever—increasing popularity in China. A growing number of people in China are immersed in the thrilling atmosphere of the upcoming Christmas. In comparison with the Spring Festival, the equally high status is given to Christmas by some of them.
There are a variety of factors contributing to this craze (trend). First, younger age groups are exposed to western culture and lifestyles through learning English. And festivals are regarded as the highlight of western culture. For example, Valentine's Day provides a vehicle for young adults to show their love. Second, the advancement of economy enables Chinese people to possess increased purchasing power. They are heavily targeted by businessmen, who view foreign festivals as golden opportunities to make money. So they desperately try to boost the atmosphere of foreign festivals.
The necessity of celebrating these foreign festivals is widely questioned. People involved are to blame for their loose traditional values. Our home—grown festivals play crucial roles in Chinese traditional culture. However, their foreign counterparts are exerting strong influence on people's values and thoughts. There is no doubt that we should give our priority to Chinese traditional festivals.

With rapid spreading of western cultures, there is a growing number of Chinese people prefer western holidays to traditional ones. When Christmas or Valentine Day comes, youngsters flood into bars, restaurants, or department stores to celebrate these festivals, while they know little about Chinese traditional festivals.
The reason behind such kind social phenomenon is obvious: in a society dominated by mass media and consumerism, festivals and holidays from abroad are labeled as fashionable, new and unique, while traditional ones are something out of date and old. Young people all over the world have regarded western life style especially the life depicted in Hollywood films as their ultimate goal of life. As a consequence it is no wonder that Chinese young people have much more passion on Christmas than China’s Spring Festival.
We should think about the influence of such a social phenomenon carefully. As far as I am concerned, it is obvious that the wide spread and recognition of western holidays is definitely doing harm to our traditional value. If we don’t take some measures right now, some day in future, Chinese cultural heritage may be alien to our offspring. It is high time for the government and all people to take some action to protect our traditional culture.

Every December 25 is the day when most Christians around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus. The church began to have no Christmas, about ten days after Jesus ascended to heaven. It is said that the first Christmas was held in the year 138 by the Roman bishop of St. Clermont. While the church history contained the first Christmas in 336 AD. Since the Bible did not remember when Jesus was born, the dates were different.
When the Christmas night, the foreign people of many poor bb have called to "Christmas gift room" to the so-called Santa Claus to call, to Santa Claus to gift, who knows? Not to Christmas, greeting cards have been circulated in our class crazy, and I went to hold the job, the teacher's table is no longer a criss-cross the operation of this, wrinkled and prepared for the neutral pen, But some are not expensive but has a beautiful gift of the gift, there are peace fruit, greeting cards, small Christmas tree such things, god! Teacher bribe!
We also send each student greeting cards, even the usual "enemies" also presented gifts to each other, but the way different finished.
每年12月25日是全世界大多数__纪念耶稣诞生的日子。教会开始并无圣诞节,约在耶稣升天后百余年内才有。据说:第一个圣诞节是在公元138年,由罗马主教圣克里门倡议举行。而教会史载第一个圣诞节则在公元336年。由于圣经未明记耶稣生于何时,故各地圣诞节日期各异。
每当耶诞夜里,外国的许多穷人家的小bb都纷纷打电话到“圣诞礼物取物处”给所谓的圣诞老人打电话,向圣诞老人要礼物,谁知?还未到圣诞节,贺卡已在我们班里疯狂流传了,我去抱作业时,老师的桌上已不再是纵横交错的作业本、皱皱巴巴的备课本和来不及换的中性笔,而是一些并不华贵却有着美丽的包装的礼物,有平安果、贺卡、小圣诞树这类的东西,god!老师受贿了!
我们同学也互赠贺卡,就连平时的“仇人”也互相赠送礼物,只是方式不同完了。

It is noticeable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while Chinese traditional holidays are being somewhat neglected. Old people often complain that Chinese New Year has lost its real meaning. To their astonishment, young people in China who are ignorant about Chinese traditional holidays are crazy about Christmas or Valentine s Day.
There are several possible reasons for this phenomenon. First, western nations, such as the United States and Britain, are powerful and dominant in every aspect. Everything in these countries is assumed to be superior and adored by some modern young people. Second, the prevalence of English as a world language and the development of globalization enable western culture to prevail in China. Overwhelmed by such a trend, Chinese unconsciously get involved in western culture. Last but not least, some Chinese people have blind faith in foreign things while miss our own possessions with contempt.
I am critical of this trend. China boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. In modern times, Chinese tradition should be preserved and promoted. But it seems that young people no longer treasure the traditions. On the contrary, they turn to pursue enthusiastically a supposedly more modern culture. If this trend is allowed to continue, the priceless heritage of our ancestors will be replaced by western traditions. Nobody expects such a consequence. So let s join hand in hand to protect Chinese tradition, especially traditional holidays.

Today, more and more young people are crazy about western festivals. When western festivals come, they usually go to restaurants or shopping malls to have fun.
如今,越来越多的年轻人都对西方的节日着迷。当西方节日到来的时候,他们常常去餐厅或是商场娱乐。
Why do the young enjoy western festivals so much? Since they worship everything new, and they can’t resist the temptation. In their opinions, western festivals symbolize the fashion, while our Chinese traditional festivals are out of date. No wonder we always feel so boring during our traditional holidays. If we still turn a blind eye to our traditional festivals, our culture and civilization will disappear someday. Accordingly, it is high time for us to pay close attention to our Chinese festivals.
为什么年轻人这么喜爱西方节日呢?大抵是因为他们喜爱新鲜事物,抗拒不了诱惑。在他们看来,西方节日代表着时尚,而中国传统节日则太土了。这也难怪我们也觉得我们的传统节日太过无聊了。如果我们对传统节日漠然置之,那么某天我们的文化文明终会消失。因此,我们该多多关注我们中国自己的节日了。
As a Chinese, we have the obligation to protect our culture and custom. So I think we should celebrate our Chinese festivals by doing some traditional activities. As for western festivals, we needn’t to be too excited about them. We can just send our best wishes to our best friends during those festivals.
作为一名中国人,我们有责任保护自己的文化习俗。所以我认为应当在庆祝中国传统节日时候举办一些传统活动。而对于西方节日,我们不需要太过激动。在这些节日里我们应该只需简单的送上祝福就好。

Ah! Christmas morning! Children like to wake up early while it’s still dark and sneak(蹑手蹑脚) into the living room to check the presents—find any with their names on it, shake them to guess what’s inside, and then maybe they’ll go back to bed and pretend they are still asleep when their parents come to wake them with a “Merry Christmas!”
But almost no one I know gets completely dressed or eats a regular breakfast on Christmas morning。 They just put on robes(长袍) or wear their pajamas(睡衣) and go to see what’s under the Christmas tree。 Some Christian families have a tradition of reading the Bible story of Jesus’ birth。 Maybe it’s to remind(提醒) the children that Christmas is Jesus’ birthday。
Someone will begin to take the presents out from under the tree, see whose name is on the package, and then pass them around。 Some families wait until all the presents have been given out before opening any of them, while others open each one as it comes to them。 There are many “thank you” to the ones who gave the gifts。 New clothes are tried on to see if they are fit, and of course the most interesting toys will immediately be played with。
Usually among the Christmas gifts will be some especially delicious candy or cake or cookies which everyone tastes。 These sweet things may be the only breakfast many people eat on Christmas morning。 After the gifts have been opened, the room will be tidied up except where the children are playing with their toys。 Everyone will wash and get dressed for the day。
Excellent! I"m expecting greater progress from you in writing。

Nowadays,western festivals become more and more popular in China, especially among us college students. But whether we should celebrate these festivals has aroused a heated discussion.
Some regard it a precious opportunity for the Chinese to learn more about western cultures. On the other hand, more and more Chinese people view it oppositely. Since more and more young people have lost their interest in our traditional festivals, such as Mid-autumn Festival, Dragon-boat Festival, and even Spring Festival. They seem to be more willing to celebrate Christmas.
In my opinion, every coin has two sides. Since the globalization is impossible to avoid this mix of cultures and traditions. We should preserve the traditional Chinese culture as well as welcome Western ones. We students undertake the responsibility to carry on our traditions, therefore, we have to respect them and cherish them.

In recent years, western festivals have increasingly aroused a great attention among Chinese people, especially the young.Concerning the phenomenon of Chinese people’s interest in celebrating the western festivals, different people have divergent views.
近年来,在中国人中西方节日激起了越来越大的关注,尤其是年轻人。关于中国人喜欢庆祝西方节日这一现象,不同的人有不同的看法。
For one thing, some people hold that the celebration of western festivals has added more fresh and joys to our lives. For example, on Valentine’s Day, many young people will give their gifts to each other to extend their love and strengthen their relationship or express their admiration. From this aspect, the celebration of western festivals provides a chance for us to communicate with others and develop our relationships. In addition, the celebration of western festivals has also added some fresh blood to our traditional Chinese cultures.
一方面,有些人认为庆祝西方节日给我们的生活增添了更多的新鲜和快乐。例如,在情人节当天,很多年轻人会通过互赠礼物来表达自己的爱,加强他们的关系或表达自己的爱慕之情。从这一方面来看,庆祝西方节日为我们提供了一个与他人交流或发展关系的机会。此外,庆祝西方节日还为我们中国传统文化添加了一些新鲜的血液。
For another, others point out that people’s too much attention to the western festivals will result in less attention to our traditional ones. And in the long term, more and more people in the next generation will have no knowledge about our traditional culture.
另一方面,有些人指出人们过于注重西方节日会导致对自身传统的忽略。从长远来看,越来越多的人下一代对我们的传统文化一无所知。
As far as I am concerned, I am inclined to favor the former one because I think the celebration of western festivals is necessary and important for us to keep our traditional culture fresh and active.
我觉得我倾向于第一个观点,因为我认为庆祝西方节日对于保持我们自身的传统节日的新鲜和活力是有必要的和重要的。
