21、Carnival (狂欢节) is one of the most important national holidays in Brazil. It is not held to celebrate a big historical event, but it is a time of friendship and freedom (自由). Besides this, it’s also a time when Brazilians don’t have to work. People can choose to hold parties or just have a good rest instead. Most people hold parties, day after day, night after night. There is a forty-day period called Lent (大斋期) before Easter. During that period, Christians (基督教徒) can’t eat meat or take part in any activities.

Carnival is held during the four days before the start of Lent. People put on their holiday clothes and go out to enjoy themselves. Also, some dance schools often hold activities to show their dances. Many people enjoy this festival. After Carnival, everything returns to the normal state, but this custom isn’t followed by some people. They always continue their parties. Like other parties, these people sing, dance and have fun. However, some people are not happy with this behavior and they feel it leaves a bad image of the holiday. I like Carnival. It’s a time for people from all over the world to get together and understand each other better. It’s a wonderful holiday and I hope more people will respect it.

I don’t think you understand my life. You think I should be studying all the time. I know you want me to find a good job when I grow up , but I would like to have a good time, too.

I bought some music CDs, and put them in my bag so that you wouldn’t see them. I told you I had to do my homework first. I know it was wrong to lie (说谎)to you, but you told me that Dad would talk to me later. Mom, I didn’t quite like what you did to me! I really love you, Mom, but I hope you won’t be so hard on me.

Love,
