Answer 1

The report narrates that during the “golden week” in 2008, the number of tourists in cities like Beijing increased dramatically, which contributed to a higher tourism revenue and heavier traffic.
Recently, the government announced that the “golden week” would be suspended, which caused different reactions. Some people think although the long “golden week” will be cancelled, we will have other traditional holidays like Mid-autumn holiday in return. Our time for relaxation is just divided into several parts while the total is not less than before. Besides, the traditional holidays can improve our sense of traditional culture and shorter holiday can ease the reception stress of tourist attractions and increase the chance of family reunion. Other people argue that “golden week” shouldn’t be suspended, for shorter holidays can make the traffic worse, which can decrease the chance of reunion of distant family members.
From my point of view, such change will do more good than harm for the simple reason that enjoying our traditional holiday can help us have a better understanding of our customs and thus rebuild our confidence in our own culture.
