It is hard to calculate the number of festivals around the world because there are too many of them! People have all kinds of festivals, and some international festivals are celebrated in different ways in different countries. Have you ever wondered why people need festivals?

Some of the festivals come from religions, such as Chrismas. it originated among Christians but has now become a public holiday for everyone around the world. However, there are other reasons why we hold festivals. They tie us together as families and communities.

Festivals and holidays are fun escapes from our regular timetable. Without holidays our weeks would run into years of donkey work. What is October without children ringing our doorbells asking for candy? What is November without turkey on the table and family around it to show thanks to our dear relatives? What is February with no heart-shaped boxes decorating the kitchen counter? The answer is: boring months.

We also celebrate festivals because they are reasons to reconnect with family and long lost friends. Many people do not have much freedom to meet families and close friends at any time. Festivals and holidays give us the chance. Furthermore, festivals bring us together as a community. Many people make holidays the times they reach out to other people.

In a world where get-togethers do not happen as much as they did many years ago, in a world where no One borrows sugar from his or her neighbor any longer or bakes a cake when someone moves on to the block,festivals ties us together.

Therefore, everyone should make the most use of their festival times. Get out and decorate your home at Christmas time. Surprise your lover with a Valentine's Day gift. And have fun at Halloween. Even if you do not enjoy Halloween, I'm sure the children in your neighborhood will love you dressing up, putting a graveyard in your garden and passing out candy!

Why do people wear clothes? The answer will probably be "To make me warm and to cover my body ".

That's why people wear clothes, but people a【1】 want to look beautiful.

If people only wear clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies,most clothes will be simple and cheap.But in many countries, clothes sometimes c 【2】 a lot of money. The clothes are expensive because of fashion.

Successful businessmen, for example, often wear very expensive suits, shirts and ties. So they pay t【3】of dollars for a suit and a tie. It's still just a suit and a tie but they pay these prices because of the f【4】designer.

Some people have too many clothes, but they seldom wear some of these clothes. These clothes are not in fashion any m【7】though they are still new.
