Mind map
A: Why should we promote traditional Chinese festivals What's your opinion
B: I think promoting traditional festivals is important for keeping our culture and history alive. When we celebrate them, we pass down knowledge about traditions to the next generation. So if they're not celebrated, all will be forgotten and lost forever!
A: That's true. Traditional festivals are also a reminder of what it means to be Chinese. Our values and pride are found at the heart of these festivals. I believe the government should support all the traditional Chinese festivals by making them public holidays.
B: It's surely a good way to promote national unity and pride. Meanwhile, as most people have access to different types of media,
it's an effective way to spread information through TV, radio and the Internet about ongoing activities locally, nationally and even internationally!
A: Yes, indeed! And in schools, festivals should be promoted with activities that draw attention to the historical importance of their symbols.
For example, during the Lantern Festival, lantern-making competitions can be held to raise students'awareness of the festival's origin and history.
B: Great idea! The joint efforts will make sure our cultural traditions, symbols and
history are carried forward many years into the future!
