When I was a child, drums were everywhere in the village on New Year's Eve. In an instant, the streets in the village were crowded with people, some beating gongs and drums, some dancing yangko, some walking on stilts and some playing with dragons. This village is very lively. Children in cotton-padded jackets are chasing and fighting in the street, and gunshots ring out from time to time. Old people get together to chat. Young guys and beautiful girls are performing for people.
In Tomb-Sweeping Day, people always put green willow branches on the door; On the Dragon Boat Festival, grandma always ties us five strings, boiled eggs, boiled garlic and wrapped zongzi ... On the Mid-Autumn Festival, my family sat in the yard and looked up. I found that it was the moonlight that bowed their heads and ate moon cakes, which was really a great pleasure on earth.
But now, the "Foreign Festival" has come, and Valentine's Day in the West has replaced Valentine's Day in China. Foreign festivals are very popular, but traditional festivals are gradually forgotten. As a China person, shouldn't you do something?
Now, whenever the New Year comes in China, people always go out for a big meal and watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. Many people lamented: "How come there are no children?" As we all know, Yangko and drumming are waving goodbye to us.
How can people in Tomb-Sweeping Day stick a tender willow tree on their doorstep? Just going to sweep the grave, that's all. Who else will wrap zongzi safely at home during the Dragon Boat Festival? Who will sit comfortably in the yard with their families and look up at the moon with moon cakes in their hands on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival?
China's excellent traditional culture is gradually forgotten by people. Traditional festivals are becoming more and more deserted in today's society. How can it not worry people? Without causing widespread concern in society?
Excellent traditional culture is the intangible wealth left by our ancestors. Traditional festivals contain Chinese excellent traditional cultural factors and are the crystallization of our nation's excellent labor achievements and wisdom.
As a middle school student, I can encourage everyone to do their bit to promote traditional culture. Excellent traditional culture does not belong to this nation, but to this world. We should do our best to publicize our traditional festivals to the world and make the world more colorful.
Defend traditional culture, carry forward national spirit and cultivate civilized family style. What are you waiting for? Let's get started!
