托福口說範文 Task 1~2 (11)
Q. Describe a social or politics celebration event in your culture. Specific examples and details are necessary in your statement.
Speaking of social celebration in my culture, there is one day of the year that is second to none, the Chinese New Year, which is also called the Spring Festival by most Chinese People. Even if you are indifferent with festive events, you cannot resist the charm of a family reunion dinner which marks the defining feature of the Spring Festival. And family members make toasts for each other in order to wish for joy, peace, health and fortune for the next year.
A type of social event celebrated in my culture is the flag-raising ceremony on National Day. Oceans of people from all across the country come to Beijing the day before. They are very excited to see the ceremony with their own eyes instead of on TV. Some even have been planting this dream in their mind for years. They arrive around 6:00 early in the morning, waiting for the special moment. I guess they are all overwhelmed and thrilled by the wonderful scene at the time. On the other hand, the view of the honor guard parade is fantastic, the guards all wearing the green military uniform and marching to Tian'anmen Square with a high spirit. Each birthday celebration of the great country always begins with such a solemn flag-raising ceremony, which strengthens the unity and motivation of its people.
