答案 Have Traditional Chinese Festivals Been Highly Valued? Nowadays we have been celebrating traditional Chinese festivals more frequently than ever before. Each year there are regular traditional holidays and glamorous and magnificent, grand galas to value such festivals. However, can we say proudly that our traditional Chinese festivals have been highly valued? I doubt it. First, it is apparent that the celebration of such festivals is not voluntarily carried out by our government, but they are performed with pressure abroad where some countries have registered seemingly our traditional festivals as their own world heritages. Celebrating grandly our Chinese traditional festivals is a declaration that some so called controversial holidays are definitely ours. Second, nowadays, children and adults are seemingly not well-informed about the rituals of our traditional festivals with the invasion of western cultures. They do not care about and are less enthusiastic about our own traditions. Third, holidays for traditional Chinese festivals are often spent with lot of drinks, food and travels, thus promoting economic thriving. You will be well-informed about the consumptions of goods and travelers flowing in scenic spots and resorts during and after the holidays; however, educational programs for these festivals are rarely seen. Therefore, it is natural to draw a conclusion that traditional Chinese festivals have not been highly valued. It won’t be so until our people young and old are well-educated about these festivals.

解析     这篇作文的话题比较新颖:中国的传统节日是否已经得到高度重视?面对西方文化不断冲击我们的传统文化的现状,这一话题值得探讨。我们所看到的现象是:现在每年都有节假日,举行各种盛大的晚会和活动,看似传统节日得到高度重视。考生可以根据自己的经历和体验来表达自己的观点。以下的否定观点可作为参考。
    这方面的论点有:传统节日的大型庆祝并不是出于自愿,而是迫于外国政府将我们的节日用来申报世界遗产的这种压力,所以公开正式地庆祝传统节日,是一种官方宣示;小孩和大人似乎并不很了解传统文化,对传统文化和节日的热情还不如国外的圣诞节和情人节等等;中国的传统节日随处可见吃喝玩乐的景象,推动了经济的发展,但有教育意义的节目和活动甚少,到处都是消费和游客的宣传报道。最后,很自然地得出结论,我们的传统节日并未得到高度重视,只有人们接受传统节日的教育多了,我们才会重视传统节日。
