2. Translation:<

China has a history of more than 5,000 years, and we are proud of this long-established culture. Every year, we look forward to vacationing at traditional festivals; they are an important part of traditional Chinese culture. But for young people, the significance of these festivals is fading.

When young people are asked about the significance of traditional festivals, some simply don't know. For example, some young people think the Mid-Autumn Festival is to honor their ancestors or a day for eating mooncakes. As a matter of fact, most festivals are promoted by commercial advertisements who ask people to buy more products to celebrate the festivals. Some ads also try to implant people's misconceptions about the meaning of the festival just to attract more customers.

The lack of meaning of traditional festivals has brought negative impact on the inheritance of traditional culture. The mass media should promote the essence of the festival so that the younger generation can learn more about our culture and be proud of it.
