答案E Now, I’d like you to talk about something between yourselves. You should take care to share the opportunity of speaking. A In my opinion, my favorite way of spending the holiday is to be with family. After all, Chinese people are very traditional and respect ancient traditions. B I don’t agree with you. With the development of civilization, we need more friends and have to get more information from outside, so we should add a new dimension to the way of spending a holiday. A As for me, the best way of spending a holiday is shopping, because there is always a big sale during the holidays. We have no time to go shopping on working days. Shopping caters for women’s pleasure as well. B I prefer to surf the net during holidays. With the development of society, many good friends are far away from us. I can’t afford the phone bill, so we usually keep in touch with them through Internet. It makes us nearer. A That’s right. The internet is popular among young people. It’s hard to image if we depart from the web. B I think we should have a mild attitude towards holidays. Our main aim is to relax, so whatever ways we choose to get through our holidays, we shouldn’t expend too much energy, because after holiday we have many things to do. B Nowadays China traditional festivals are struck by western ones, and what’s your opinion about this phenomenon? A I think this phenomenon has something to do with the open-door policy and the popularity of English language in our country. Since the beginning of the 90’s, English seems to play a more and more important role in our society. With a good knowledge of English, you can easily find a job with a fairly high salary. And it’s a passport to most people, especially youths who are willing to go abroad to pursue further studies. Without English, you can’t even use the computer, the most widely used apparatus in modern society, and have still less chance to travel on the internet. Most advanced technology is introduced into the country originally in English. What’s more, many western countries are more powerful than China, so shouldn’t we first learn as much about it as possible before we could overtake it in economy? A Why do you like western festivals? B I like these western festivals. Just now the student above talked so much about learning the language and culture. No doubt it is reasonable. But I join the growing numbers who celebrate these festivals, not only because it’s foreign. In my o-pinion, these festivals just express more concern, more caring about individual feelings than their Chinese counterparts do. For example, for Christmas, we prepare and send gifts to friends or the older, and always give each other a surprise. On Valentine’s Day, not only young people, but people of various ages send roses, chocolates to the person he or she loves. It just expresses their bless for the person they love. Isn’t it an enjoyable thing? B Do you think what has caused this phenomenon? A Just now the student said that people celebrate the western festivals because they want to learn their culture. But it’s not always the case for every person. Some young people just think lightly of our own culture. They hold the view that foreign countries are more developed than us and we should learn from them. Certainly it’s true, but what we should learn is science and more advanced technology, and also, not just paying attention to their life style. Additionally, the advertising of the businessmen enhanced this phenomenon, a few days before the festival especially the Christmas, we can see the advertisements and decorations at the gate of restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and even little stores. In this way they have created the atmosphere of celebrating these western festivals.
