What do you think of celebrating Christmas Day in China? Christmas Day is very popular in China, especially for young people. Should Chinese people celebrate Christmas Day? 60% people think that we should not take Christmas so seriously, 10% think everyone should celebrate Christmas.
Some people think celebrating Christmas Day can help them understand western culture better. Some people think it is a great holiday to have a good time with their families and
friends. During Christmas Day, they can meet friends, go shopping, watch movies and go to different parties.

China has its own holidays, such as the Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Day, so we don’t have to celebrate holidays from other countries. Some people spend a lot of money celebrating Christmas Day. People buy lots of gifts for their friends and families, but this is not the best way to show their love.

“Dreams may be mo re important than sleep. We all need dreams.” Some scientist s say.
Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams are like short films. They are usually in color. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over again. That may be because the dreamer is worried about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.

Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling fro m a dream. But often we can’t remember the dream. Dreams can go away quickly.
