2、产生这种现象的原因
3、这种现象可能带来的影响
考试范文
Now people in growing numbers are beginning to realize that they prefer enjoying western festivals, such as the coming X’mas. There is a general discussion today about this issue. Certainly, this is a delicious sign of diversity in the life.
A lot of reasons are responsible for it. To begin with, the young men are exposed to the international minds or trends, and they are partly influenced. What’s more, the western views have been spread widely, naturally, and culturally. Moreover, nowadays people have their rights to have a taste of various cultures. In other words, they may celebrate festivals they like besides the conventional days, like the Spring Festival.
Obviously, this does some effects in our life. For example, it will arouse anxiety among so-called protectors of tradition. They unnecessarily worries that the western days are to replace the Chinese convention. Personally speaking, the policy of “let it be” will do more good that harm in this field. However, it is necessary that effective actions should be taken to prevent the negative effects of both traditional and western days.

The Importance of Reading Classics
It is widely acknowledged that reading the classics is both important and beneficial to the character development and personal growth of the young people. To me, nothing can bring more joy and happiness than reading those masterpieces created by great figures like Confucius and Cao Xueqin. I believe works like The Dream in the Red Chamber and The Legend of Three Kingdoms can drastically elevate one’s aesthetic taste and deepen the understanding of the glorious history of Chinese culture.
However, the modern society is full of temptations. Compared with TV soap operas, sport events, and video games, classical literary works are old fashioned and time consuming. In bookstores, “Fast-food” reading materials are replacing classics, and young writers with sensational and “cool” remarks win the support of a large number of fans.
As the salt of this world, we college students should be fully aware of the important role the classics play in broadening one’s vision. Therefore, we should start reading and studying the treasuries our ancestors left and absorbing the essence of those classical works. We should also advocate to the public the importance of classics so that an increasing number of general people can enjoy the pleasure of reading.
