When the traditinal festival cmes, everybdy is excited abut it, because they will have a hliday t relax. The meaning f these festivals is remembered by the ld generatin all the time, while sme yung peple d nt knw. S when we enjy the hliday, we need t knw mre abut the traditinal culture.
The traditinal festival is an imprtant way t preserve ur culture, which is the great treasure f human beings. We are s prud f it, because it is priceless.
Every festival has its wn meaning. Labur Day，fr example，celebrates the value f hard wrk. But smehw it nw seems that while celebrating all festivals we just care abut ne thing—shpping. And that can be a big prblem.
“In a way，ver­cnsumptin(过度消费) is the mther f all ur envirnmental prblems，” Kalle Lasn nce tld CNN. Lasn is the rganizer f Buy Nthing Day，a day set up in Canada in 1992 t fight against unhealthy spending habits，and has nw becme an internatinal event. It's held n the day，which is knwn as Black Friday—a famus shpping day in the US and Canada.
Yu can see the irny(讽刺) here.
Even thugh the idea f Buy Nthing Day was brught up 27 years ag，we seem t need it nw mre than ever. It's just as Lasn said，all the different kinds f dilemmas in ur lives tday—bad air quality，the reductin f frest area，endangered animal species，and plastic bags fund in the cean—seem t be the same cause：ver­cnsumptin.
Buy Nthing Day might nly be here fr ne day a year，but it's nt just t remind us abut a break frm shpping n that day，but t change ur lifestyle cmpletely，fcusing n fun “with peple we care abut” rather than wasting mney n useless things.
