The Most Impressive Festival in my Winter Vacation

In the winter vacation the most important festival is Chinese New Year. Chinese New Year is the traditional and hilarious festival in Taiwan. Everyone expects that Chinese New Year is coming because they can enjoy the great bonhomie. In addition, people can wear new clothes, new shoes, new hats, and so on. Moreover, they can get the big present. That is red envelope. So do I. For above reasons, I look forward to meet my favorite festival “Chinese New Year.”

In Chinese New Year I had a lot of interesting memories. My family and I ate hearty and warm family reunion dinner in New Year’ Eve. We all had a good time. My parents and my elder brother gave me red envelopes. I was so delighted. Also, we enjoyed family happiness. In the first day of Chinese New Year, we went to my grandmother’s home. I met many relations that day so I was very happy. We chatted about our recent or current situation. And, the elders played the mahjong. We had a good day! In addition, in the second day of Chinese New Year, my father took us to every big temple to pray for blessings. We hope that we can be safe and well in this year. We also went to temples to pray in remaining days. I had a substantial and happy Chinese New Year in my winter vacation.

Chinese New Year is really a great festival for most Taiwanese. Also, Chinese New Year is a symbolic festival in Taiwan. People can enjoy the great atmosphere and eat a lot of delicious food. We can enjoy the festival mood everywhere, too. All in all, Chinese New Year plays an important role in my winter vacation and I like this festival very much!

Compare and contrast: Final

Compare and Contrast Between Two Different Kinds of Stores

Both small grocery stores and large supermarket stores have the same purpose, that is, they all sell goods to buyers. Yet, the way and the attitudes of sale in grocery stores are quite different from large supermarket stores, such as the prices, service, and food. According to these following facts, you will know the differences between these two stores.

The prices of grocery stores are different from those of large supermarket stores. For instance, the prices of grocery stores are high because the fewer goods are on sale. Yet, the prices of large supermarket stores are lower than those of grocery stores due to the fact that large supermarket stores sell a good deal of goods.

In addition, the service of small grocery stores is worse than that of large supermarket stores. In small grocery stores the seller’s attitude toward the customs is impatient and abominable; in contrast, in large supermarket stores the seller’s attitude toward the customs is patient and genial.

Furthermore, the food in large supermarket stores is fresher than that in small grocery stores. The food in large supermarket stores will be changed and checked every day. However, if the food in grocery stores is not bought by buyer, it will continue to be sold by seller whether the food is fresh or not.

Although these two stores both sell goods for customs, their ways and attitudes of sale are quite different, including the prices, service, and food. In my opinion, I prefer the large supermarket stores to the small grocery stores because of the above facts between two stores.
