2.Which of the two opinions do you agree with? Why?
Possible version 2:
I am in favor of Wang Peng’s opinion. Our world is developing and we need to change with the times. I think eating out for the Spring Festival family dinner is a good choice, because we can get rid of the tiring cooking and we needn’t clean up after the dinner, and the dishes taste better! Besides, I believe that eating out doesn’t change the love between family members.

基础任务示例:给外国朋友写 5 句话,介绍中国家庭年夜饭的意义(如团聚、传统食物的象征)。
The New Year's Eve dinner is a big family gathering for Chinese. No matter how far they are, family members try to come back.
We eat special foods with good meanings. For example, dumplings look like gold ingots, symbolizing wealth.
Fish is also a must, as its Chinese pronunciation means "having more than enough" in the new year.
During the meal, people talk, laugh and share stories, feeling the warmth of family.
It's not just about eating; it's a time to show love and hope for the new year together.
提升任务示例:写一段短文(80 词),谈谈 “你理想的年夜饭方式”,说明理由(可结合两种观点的优点)。
My ideal New Year's Eve dinner is a warm, simple gathering with my family. First, everyone helps cook together. Mom teaches me to make dumplings, Dad fries fish, and grandma tells stories while washing vegetables. It's not just about eating, but enjoying the process of working as a team.
I hope we have fewer dishes but more favorite ones. Instead of a big table full of food, we can have dumplings, my dad's special braised pork, and grandma's sweet rice cakes. These foods remind me of my childhood and feel more meaningful than fancy dishes.
Most importantly, we put away our phones. No checking messages or taking photos all the time. We talk about the past year's happy things and make small wishes for the new year. Laughter and warm words are the best parts. This way, the dinner feels true and full of love, which is what I want most.
Thank you
for your listening
