Well, perhaps we shouldn’t be so selfish. Peace, happiness and friendship are important to us, to human beings, but what about the rest of the planet ? We mustn’t 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 ?

That’s a good idea, but I think we should create a Happiness Day instead. If people are happy, there won’t be any wars or fights. We should celebrate Happiness Day on the shortest, darkest day of the winter, because many people feel unhappy when it’s cold and the sun doesn’t 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 lot on Happiness Day.

Work together with your partner and describe one of your favourite festivals. I think the Spring Festival is my favourite festival because people celebrate it by visiting each other and getting together at home. It is the biggest festival in China. Families get together on New Year’s 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 year and to show their love for their family and friends.
