Positive idea:
As China becomes more integrated in the global community, western customs together with western commodities are imported into the Chinese market. Western festivals, especially Christmas, gain popularities quickly among Chinese, especial the westernized new generation. The celebration of western festivals ignited heated debates.  Some argue that Christmas is overshadowing traditional festivals like the Spring Festival and it signals the destructive process of westernization among the Chinese and thus it should be condemned. However, we take a more optimistic stand on this phonomenon and the reasons as follows:
At first, Christmas has rich cultural connotations which is a Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. Meanwhile, popular Christmas themes include the promotion of goodwill, giving, compassion, and quality family time. In recent years, many of the festivities of
Christmas do not have anything to do with religion, although there are special Christmas services in Chri
stian churches all over the world. Exchanging gifts and sending Christmas cards are the modern ways of celebrating the Christmas. I think that Christmas is more attractive and interesting which compared with the serious Oriental traditional festivals such as mid-autumn. Why do we celebrite festival? I think relaxing is one of the most important reasons. With the development of society, an increasing numbers of people have great pressures from life, work and study and Christmas provides a recreational way for us adjusting our daily life. The western festival should be celebrited in China because it maks us happy. It’s crucial for us.
Next, with the development of high and new science and technology, network communication technology and rapid progress of globalization, the world has become smaller and smaller. Especially after China’s accession to the WTO, the violent collisions of western culture and eastern traditional morality have blended and influenced people’s daily life to vast extent. Celebriting Christmas signifies China’s opening up to the world and its readiness to appreciate other cultures.
Moreover, Christmas as well as other western festivals such as Valentine’s Day,
April fool’s Day, Thanksgiving Day is beneficial to maintain relationships among people and stimulates economy.关于圣诞节的英语作文
In my opinion, the inflowing of foreign holidays can promote cultural exchanges, reduce the cultural differences, conducive to mutual learning. For these reasons, we support the celebrations of Christmas and other western festivals in China.
Free Debating:
Moreover, we have our distinctive way of celebrating Christmas. Instead of going to the church like the Americans, we regard Christmas as an opportune time to shop and to enjoy ourselves, as many shopping centres offer discounts to attract customers in Christmas season. As such, our values are not deeply altered by our celebration of christmas.
Integration is an irresistible trend of history development. In fact, an army of foreigners also like Spring Festival, Why don’t you with a broad mind to accept western festivals? Celebrating Christmas is the crystallization of Chinese and western cultural exchange, is the trend of nations cultural
integration.
We shouldn’t use the excuse maintaining the Chinese traditional culture to ask someone to refuse foreign culture. We should make progress, not make traditional culture stagnated.
We should keep a right attitude to western festivals. Everyone has the freedom to choose his favorite holiday. Christmas has been widely accepted by Chinese and festal atmosphere has been formed. Besides Celebrating Christmas does not mean w
e ignore the traditional festivals, there is no contradiction between them. In the period o
f traditional festivals such as Sprin
g Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, we will still hold many colorful celebration activities. For example, in the Dragon Boat Festival, people will drink realgar wine, rowing. Social pressure is rising, in this case increasing some good holiday can relieve pressure appropriately, foreign festivals emphasize personalities, more relaxed and romantic, so it’s a good thing for us.
篇二:中国人到底要不要过圣诞节
今天走在学校里面,随处都可见到圣诞节的气息。食堂门口摆着圣诞树,超市里都是各种有关圣诞的东西。让人不得
不想起明天就是圣诞节了啊。
那我们到底该不该过这个圣诞节呢,要我说啊,我不过,我曾今也过过,那是因为年轻,不懂事,现在不一样了,长大了,也能看到很多问题的实质了,会思考了。
思绪有点乱,但很平和,一点也不激进。
我就一点一点的说说我的看法,首先圣诞节是一个宗教节日,而据我所知,大部分的中国人不信奉基督教,更不明白这个节日的真正含义。那去过它,是不是一种盲目呢。而眼下的国人,热衷庆祝的节日不仅有西方的圣诞节,还有情人节,感恩节,等等。并且再过这些节日的同时,我们却淡忘的我们自己的传统节日,这就完全是一种忘本的行为了。就完全是在受着别人的对你的精神摆布,而你自己却完全没有意识。这实质上就是一种侵略,文化,精神的侵略,是西方的软势力在我国的渗透和扩张的一种体现。我们在无意识中受着西方文化影响时间长了,我们自己的传统文化淡忘的多了,我们自然而然的就让别人在精神上统治了。我自认为,精神的统治远比领土的统治更可怕,真的到那时候,不用别人的一一炮,我们就会拱手把我们的领土给别人了,因为,我们的精神已经不是我们自己的了。从这个角度来说,我认为我们不该过圣诞节。
我今天还在和同学讨论这个问题,当然就会有人提出反驳的观点,有人说现在全球一体化不仅促进了经济的发展,而
