Question

　　The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West．It falls on the 1st day of the 1st lunar month, often one month later than the Gregorian calendar．It originated in the Shang Dynasty(c．1600 BC～c．1100 BC)from the people's sacrificee to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one．During the Spring Festival, people usually completely clean their houses and all their utensils．They decorated their doors with Spring Festival couplets(春聯(lián))，Also, pictures of the god of doors and wealth will be posted on front doors to ward off evil spirits and welcome peace and abundance．Jiaozi or Niangao are the traditional food eaten by people on the first of the new year．Children like to burn fireworks for fun．

　　People attach great importance to Spring Festival Eve．At that time, all family members eat dinner together．The meal is more luxurious than usual．Dishes such as chicken, fish and bean curd cannot be excluded, for in Chinese, their pronunciations, respectively“ji”,“yu”and“fu,”mean auspiciousness, abundance and richness．After the dinner, the whole family will sit together, chatting and watching TV．In recent years, the Spring Festival party broadcast on China Central Television Station(CCTV)is essential entertainment for the Chinese both at home and abroad．According to custom, each family will stay up to see the New Year in．

　　問(wèn)題導(dǎo)入：隨著人們欣賞水平的提高和娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)的豐富，許多人認(rèn)為春節(jié)聯(lián)歡晚會(huì)沒(méi)有以前那樣重要了，節(jié)目也不是特別吸引人了，但也有許多人認(rèn)為春節(jié)聯(lián)歡晚會(huì)多少年來(lái)給人們帶來(lái)許多快樂(lè)，已經(jīng)成為人們心目中不可缺少的春節(jié)大餐。你認(rèn)為還有必要繼續(xù)舉行春節(jié)聯(lián)歡晚會(huì)嗎？

　　Do you think it is still necessary to have the Spring Festival party broadcast on China Central Television Station(CCTV)?

　　A farmer from the countryside：It's necessary to have the programme because families get together at that time and have a big meal．After the meal, they watch the TV programme as it is an enjoyable way of spending time together．Family members can have a lot of fun together through watching the programme．

　　A director for CCTV：We should continue the programme．It's like a delicious taste of Chinese culture and should be enjoyed by people at home and abroad．It's also a symbol of a united China and gives the Spring Festival a special atmosphere．

　　A young student from a city：It is boring, I don't like it and the performances are just getting worse and worse．Local governments can hold other more meaningful activities．These may be more exciting and can attract more people．

　　A journalist：The Spring Festival programmed is quite important, though there are some problems here and there．It has become a custom for Chinese people now．What is the most important is to improve the show and make it appealing(吸引人的)to people at home and abroad．
