英语节日作文 篇1
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.

due to the heavy influence of western cultures, more and more modern chinese people prefer western holidays to traditional ones. when christmas or valentine day comes, youngsters flood into bars, restaurants, and department stores to celebrate these festivals which their ancestors know little about.
the reason behind this social phenomenon is obvious: in a society dominated by mass media and consumerism, festivals and holidays from abroad are labeled as “fashionable and new”, while traditional ones as something “out of date or old”. young people all over the world have regarded western life style depicted in hollywood films as their ultimate goal of life. therefore it’s no wonder that chinese young people love christmas much more than spring festival.
the influence of such a social phenomenon should be carefully studied. in my opinion, the wide spread and recognition of western holidays will definitely harm our traditional value. if we don’t take some measure, in years to come, chinese cultural heritage may be alien to our offspring. it’s high time that the government took some action.

Tzung Tzu A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat festival is tzung tzu. This tasty dish consists of rice dumplings with meat, peanut, egg yolk, or other fillings wrapped in bamboo leaves.
