Festivals
Most people have forgotten(Body2)the meaning behind traditional or religious festivals;
during festival periods,Statement people nowadays only want to enjoy(body1) themselves.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
Some people argue that we no longer remember the original meaning of festivals, and that most of us treat them as a opportunities to have fun. While I agree that enjoyment seems to be the priority during the festival times (Body 1) , I do not agree that people have forgotten what these festivals mean. (Body 2)
On the one hand, religious and traditional festivals have certainly become times for celebration.”Umbrella sentence” In the UK, Christmas is a good example of a festival period when people are most concerned with shopping, giving and recieving presents, decorating their home and enjoying traditional meals with their families.”Example for what celebration” Most people look forward to Christmas as a holiday period, rather than to practise religion.”Support sentence” Similar behavior can be seen during non-religious festivals such as Bonfire night.”Another example” People associate this occasion with making fires, watching firework displays, and perhaps going to events in local parksSupport sentence ; other words, injoyment poeople’s primary goal.Conclusion sentence
However, I disagree with the idea that the underlying meaning of such festivals has been forgotten.”umbrella”. In UK primary schools, children learn in detail about the religious reasons for celebrating Christmas songs which have religious content, and they may even perform nativity plays telling the story of Jesus’ birth.”Example”. Families also play a role in passing knowledge of religious festivals’ deeper significance on to the next generation.”Another example”.The same is true for festivals that have a historical background, such as Bonfire Night or Halloween, in the sense that people generally learn the stories behind these occasions at an early age.Support sentence
In conclusion, although people mainly want to enjoy themselves during festivals, I believe that they are still aware of the reasons for these celebrations.
