At first glance, the boom in celebrating foreign festivals is indeed suggestive of a better understanding of foreign culture and customs as well as a mean to communicate with foreigners. But a deeper and critical look into the phenomenon can reveal something worthy of careful consideration. To the best of my knowledge, the boom is a kind of multicultural diffusion or even something like a cultural invasion. Compared with the foreign festivals especially those in western countries, featured in heavy religious considerations and widely spread in both east and west, ours, distinguished by pure traditional form of celebration, is required to prevent the traditional elements from vanishing. With the tendency of cultural invasion becoming stronger, we should absorb and maintain at the same time. As a growing body of evidence shows, people are becoming more easily to receive the western style of festival celebration as they are abandoning the traditional ones unconsciously. They consider those western culture as a fashion and pursue blindly, under the false feeling that they are getting tired of the joy and festivity of traditional occasions. Equally we Chinese are losing our festivals in that the government and society just have them marked on the calender and never legislate as official holidays or vigorously publicize before. And above all, it is a side-effect in holding blind celebration of foreign festivals. We should know how to balance the trend sensibly, make it a shortcut that contributes to our knowledge of foreign culture and enlightenment of the reservation of our precious traditional culture.

Learning to write and speak a foreign language correctly requires having somebody to correct your grammar and usage errors. Otherwise you may learn a substandard version of the language with deep-rooter mistakes and incorrect usages that are hard to get rid of.

A popular and tried-and-true way to learn languages involves writing texts in a foreign language on a daily basis and reading them aloud to a native speaker, who will correct any mistakes.

Native speakers or language professionals will review your text and correct all errors of style or grammar free of charge. You can also request a sound recording of the spoken version of your corrected text that will let you hear the subtleties of pronunciation by a native speaker.
