21、 Chinese celebrate Western Holidays?Each group presents their own ideas on the topic first.

First, its a good way for globalization, and we can know more about t
22、he culture in other country. Secondly, foreigners will also have a chance to know more about the Chinese culture. Thus, we could avoid some cultural misunderstandings.First，I do not think it is a bad things ,and the holiday is a good thing ,many people could celebrate not only the Chinese people but
23、 also the American, and so on. Second, many people go aboard every year, and they should adjust themselves to the aboard environment，so the must to celebrate the holiday，so I think we should celebrate it，and other people that come from union.We should not celebrate western holidaysTo begin with, the
24、re are so many meaningful traditional festivals in China, from which people could have a rest and get relax. In the festival, without the burden of work, people call on relatives, visit their respected teachers, and chat with their best friends. Though the temperature is very could in that time, the
25、 atmosphere among people is very warm and happy. Besides, there are other meaningful and instructive festivals in China, such as Autumn Day, National Day, Pure Bright Festival, etc.Furthermore, western festivals have the cultural and historical origins in the western countries, which are not known a
26、nd comprehended by Chinese people. There are so many western festivals, which are originated from or related with Christian or Catholicism which are not believed in by the majority of Chinese people. We could not gain the happy feeling since we could not understand these holidays meanings.Finally, t
27、here are negative aspects on unhealthy people in the western festivals which should not be celebrated by us.
