　　Nowadays, people in China are increasingly interested in celebrating foreign festivals, especially those western festivals.
　　A survey conducted recently by sina.com showed that among the 18,222 people surveyed  63.90% said celebrating Christmas is just another way of enjoying life, nothing serious while 17.85% surveyed considered the festival as a fashion act, showing they were not “out”. These two parts clearly express the general opinion of the young. 10.45% people involved said the celebration of a religious western festival with so much enthusiasm is absolutely unbelievable admire of foreign goodness. Only 7.80% of people consider Christmas as a kind of festival colonization(殖民).

In my point view, Christmas and other festivals celebrated in China have difference from the origin. They have lost their religious bacnd and turned into a big occasion to have fun and enjoy life. Shop owners’ pockets are filled, the public’s hunger for happiness is filled, and that is enough. Foreign festivals in China are more like carnivals giving people pleasure and enjoyment.
　　The crisis of traditional Chinese festivals that are losing their attraction may be linked to the culture tradition and bacnd of the festivals. Most Chinese festival culture is related more or less to real life. “The country is based on its people while the people are relied on their food”.
　　But the western culture shows much of romance. Some festivals have their religious bacnd while others have much to do with culture and people. At this point, food seems to be too ordinary. Flowers and chocolates are more welcomed.
　　Foreign festivals in China are celebrated for fun. They give people opportunities to relax and celebrate, to show appreciation and gratefulness. The acceptance of foreign festivals generally depends on the openness of the public, the familiarity with the western culture, and most importantly, on people’s economic situation.
