Discussion
Why do the Chinese people attach so much importance to reunion during the Spring Festival
The answer to this question is deeply rooted in the traditional Chinese culture, which is characterized by a sense of family, or a sense of belonging. The concept of family has a great influence on the Chinese people, and three generations living under the same roof is good proof of a thriving family.
Discussion
All over the country, people are celebrating their
good fortune, celebrating their family’s togetherness,
and celebrating their nation’s strength. ( Para. 6 )
