9、 together at home. It is the biggest festival in China. Families get together on New Years Eve and have a big meal. During the festival, we visit friends and have fun together. Most parents give their children a red envelope with some money in it . People celebrate the festival to welcome the new ye

10、ar and to show their love for their family and friends. What is your favourite festival and why ?speakingWork in groups of four. Your group has been asked to decide what a new holiday should be about.In my opinion, we should I dont think it is necessary to I hope we can make a decision.I believe we

11、should We must decide If we do this, we can Examples:OK, I will begin. We need to decide what the new holiday will be. I think that the new holiday should be a Peace Day . On this day, no fighting or conflicts are allowed . People will learn and talk about peace. The holiday will be celebrated on th

12、e second Sunday in January. I think this is the best idea because nothing is more important than peace.Thats a good idea, but I think we should create a Happiness Day instead. If people are happy, there wont be any wars or fights. We should celebrate Happiness Day on the shortest, darkest day of the

13、 winter, because many people feel unhappy when its cold and the sun doesnt shine. People will celebrate by doing something that makes another person happy, for example helping them do something or giving them a card or a small gift . The most important thing is that people should smile and laugh a l

14、ot on Happiness Day.I like your ideas, but I would like to suggest something different. Why dont we have a Friendship Day? If people have friend and are friendly to each other, they will be happy and they wont fight . I think that we should celebrate Friendship Day the first of every month. If we do

15、 this, we will start each month in a friendly way. We can learn about how to make and keep friends and how to solve problems together. People will celebrate Friendship Day by making new friends and spending the day together with their friends.Well, perhaps we shouldnt be so selfish. Peace, happiness

16、 and friendship are important to us, to human beings, but what about the rest of the planet ? We mustnt forget about nature, the environment and the animals. On this day, which we will celebrate on the first day of spring, people will not pollute and they will learn more about nature. We should also plant trees and do something for our animal friends. I think that we will be happier and more peaceful if we learn to take better care of our planet. Why not have a Nature Day ?
