Topic 52 参加过的开心的聚会

1. How do children in China celebrate birthday party?
I think children usually celebrate birthday parties by giving gifts and doing a fun activity like playing video games or visiting a zoo. At a young age, they don’t really know why birthdays are important; to them, it’s just a fun day. They can enjoy birthday cake and play the day away487. It’s a chance for them to play with each other and enjoy each other’s company.

2. What do children often do in a birthday party? / What do children love to do in a party?
I haven’t taken part in a child’s party for years. But when it comes to celebrating birthday parties, I guess children like to play party games pretty often. Besides, when I was young, we always loved opening birthday gifts. I’m sure that’s a big deal488 for a lot of children, and there’s a lots of fun in finding out what toys are in there. Young kids are always happy to have lots of new toys.

3. Should parents spend a lot of money on children’s parties?
Well, I don’t think parents should spend a lot of money on children’s parties. It’s kind of489 crazy to spend too much on a party. And the kids probably won’t even remember the party after a few years.Plus, when they’re young, kids don’t need expensive things to keep them happy. So spending lots of money on a children’s party is kind of ridiculous.

4. What are the differences between adults’ party and children’s party?
I suppose adults’ parties are a lot more serious and often have a purpose, like for a business where it’s all about building networks. Usually they just focus on conversation, and there isn’t a lot of entertainment. But when it comes to children’s parties, the atmosphere is crazier. After all, most parents just let their kids run loose490 and play with each other.

5. Do you think people can make more friends if they often join parties?
Yeah, people can definitely make more friends that way. Sometimes, it’s a great way to get to know new people by meeting them face-to-face. Nowadays, so many people just stay at home and socialize with the people they already know. It’s good to get out sometimes and make new friends.

6. Why do so many people love playing computer games at home?
Well, to be honest, I think it’s a way to forget your troubles. You know, a lot of people are really tired after a long day of work or study. So for them, playing computer games at home is a way of relieving pressure. Even though it’s not healthy sometimes, it’s important because it gives them a chance to just kick back and relax491.
