Purpose of festivals and celebrationsQ: Why do you think festivals areimportant events in the working year?Answer:Yeah. It’s very important for tworeasons.For the country, it’s a time to remember our cultural origin and ourhistorical past.The whole country celebrates our root and it’s very inspiring.Webecome so proud of our past.I guess that’s why festivals are important.For theindividual, festivals give us a chance for relaxation as we often have a fewdays off. It’s a time of fun, meeting friends, entertainment.So after that wefeel like a new man.In a sense, holidays restore our balance between work andleisure.That’s also why we need festivals for China.
Q: Would you agree that the original significance of festival is often losttoday?
构思:节日的初衷: 庆祝传统, 承上启下, 结束也是开始现在的节日: 人们繁忙, 感觉不到开始和结束的意义, 过完节,马上就再次投入到工作中,有些单位甚至连节假日都加班. 人们也不在那么感动传统,倒是好好的利用节日放松了一下, 吃吃喝喝,购物,节日从tradition象consumption过渡.更像是给了人们一个借口: 1. 放下工作 2. 奢侈享受 3. 见见好久不见的重要的人.这么讲的话, 节日也挺好的.
Answer:I think the original significance for festivals are to celebrate ourtradition.It’s an end to the old year and the beginning of a new year. So it’s aconnecting day.But today, people are so busy, they’re under so much pressure andthey no longer feel the transition between the old and the new year. Somecompanies even ask their employees to come in on holidays. So many people beginto feel that festivals are just as common as the other days.People no longertake the opportunities of festivals to honor their tradition,but go shopping, goto restaurant to entertain instead.So I think tradition is out, consumption isin.Festivals provide people such an excuse to put down their work, to spendmoney and be extravagant (奢侈的), and to meet people that they don’t have time forduring the working year.So in this sense, even the original significance islost, festivals are still exciting.
