英语作文 篇1
China's Valentine's Day, the Double Seventh Festival is the most romantic festival among China's traditional celebrations. The festival was the day valued most by girls in the past and remains a favorite today, managing to evolve along traditional lines.
On this day, girls once used to pray to the Weaver Maid goddess, asking for great skills in needlecraft as well as satisfactory husbands. But for many Chinese young people, these old traditions have been forgotten over the years.
This year, on the streets of big cities, many stores selling cross-stitch artworks have found more young lovers taking up this traditional habit. Manager Wang Kai runs such a store in Shanghai.
"The embroidery artworks sell really well in my store, and most of the customers are young lovers this year."
But the goddess in heaven doesn't answer the young girls' prayers unless they are able to show their sincerity, often demonstrated with offerings of delicious food. The food which is usually offered at this time is home-made and propitious in nature, just like dumplings, noodles, wontons and deep-fried twisted dough sticks. However, the most famous offering is the Qiaoguo, a kind of cake with a thin fried paste inside. Daoxiangcun, a renowned Chinese traditional bakery chain has introduced the traditional Qiaoguo for years into the Chinese market. A manager surnamed Liu from a chain store based in Shijingshan District of Beijing says more and more customers are recognizing the traditional food compared with years previously.
"Qiaoguo has sold very well in the store this year since we've changed it slightly, adding new flavors like blueberry and lychee. Several years ago, only a small amount of young people were interested in buying Qiaoguo, but now more young people and elderly customers have started to purchase it because of soft and delicious flavors. These kinds of cake can be priced much higher than other more common ones, but the price doesn't deter the customers from buying them".
Gold jewelry has also seen sales increase as it helps to express sentimental wishes, and acts as a good hedge against inflation. Many jewelry stores have promoted their Qixi sales by offering more products suitable for lovers. Manager Li Mei says certain products prove very popular for this occasion.
"Jewelry with traditional Chinese designs is very popular among those customers looking to buy necklaces, bracelets, and eternity rings. Gold jewelry suitable for wearing with traditional Chinese clothing, such as the cheong-sams, is proving extremely popular right now".
This year has also seen traditional bamboo slips become a new favorite among young lovers. Couples can use the bamboo books to express their heart-felt love to one another, engraving words upon the book to give a special message to their loved ones. The price of these traditional romance letters has garnered great attention from customers visiting online stores. The bamboo slips are usually priced at 48 yuan up to 150 yuan each.

The approach of the Chinese Lunar New Year poses a national issue concerning the necessity of holding the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
Its established status is being challenged by a growing number of people, especially by younger generations. It's increasingly difficult to cater for all tastes.
Some individuals deem that it should be canceled or replaced by other programs. These young people focus their attention on other forms of celebration instead of immersing themselves in TV.
Despite that, the majority of mid-aged people and senior citizens uphold the importance of the traditional performance. The most striking feature of this gala is its traditionally close link with ordinary people's lives.
Most of people view this gala as an annual staple on the traditional Chinese Spring Festival Eve. They all have a restless night and glue their eyes on the television.
I'm not supportive of the view that the grand gala should be abandoned. Undoubtedly, it plays a vital role in the celebration of Chinese New Year.
To increase its appeal and meet young adults' need, the upcoming performance should invite some big names including super stars from Hongkong and Taiwan.
We are all eagerly anticipating this unforgettable evening show.

英语作文 篇8
With the development of IT, online chatting is becoming increasingly popular with many people.
However, people’s opinions about it vary from person to person. Some think that it has more problems than benefits. First, it is a waste of time, energy and money as it doesn’t produce any useful information and products. Second, it is misleading to its users because cyberspace is actually an imaginary space where things are unreal or fictional.
But the advocates of online chatting support it because it is another way of recreation which is both exciting and relaxing. Besides, it helps them release their emotions and worries freely and safely. To them, it is very useful and wonderful.
As far as I am concerned, whether online chatting is good or bad depends on the person who does it.
