话题写作
One possible version:
Dear Paul,
I was delighted to know the UN declared the Chinese Spring Festival as a UN Floating holiday. It’s great to see more cities in the UK celebrating the festival too. Apart from the customs you mentioned, there are other significant traditions and activities. Families exchange red envelopes filled with money to bring good luck. We also have the lion and dragon dances, which are lively performances believed to scare away evil spirits and bring good fortune.
In recent years, celebrations have evolved in China. Besides traditional activities, people now enjoy watching the CCTV New Year’s Gala, a TV show filled with music, dance, and comedy performances. Additionally, many people travel domestically or internationally during the holiday, exploring new destinations and experiencing different cultures. The Chinese New Year’s global spread is due to China’s increasing influence and the world’s fascination with its rich culture. It promotes cultural understanding and exchange, fostering friendships and connections around the globe.
I hope you can come to my hometown one day to experience it and have a deeper understanding of the Chinese New Year. I will be glad to your guide to enjoy it.
Warm regards,
Li Jin

话题写作
One possible version:
Dear Paul,
I was delighted to know the UN declared the Chinese Spring Festival as a UN Floating holiday. It’s great to see more cities in the UK celebrating the festival too. Apart from the customs you mentioned, there are other significant traditions and activities. Families exchange red envelopes filled with money to bring good luck. We also have the lion and dragon dances, which are lively performances believed to scare away evil spirits and bring good fortune.
In recent years, celebrations have evolved in China. Besides traditional activities, people now enjoy watching the CCTV New Year’s Gala, a TV show filled with music, dance, and comedy performances. Additionally, many people travel domestically or internationally during the holiday, exploring new destinations and experiencing different cultures. The Chinese New Year’s global spread is due to China’s increasing influence and the world’s fascination with its rich culture. It promotes cultural understanding and exchange, fostering friendships and connections around the globe.
I hope you can come to my hometown one day to experience it and have a deeper understanding of the Chinese New Year. I will be glad to your guide to enjoy it.
Warm regards,
Li Jin
