题目内容
18.People in Brazil mark Carnival(狂欢节)every year and it is considered to be one of the most important national holidays.It is not about a big moment in history or a famous person,but it is important for the people because it is a time of friendship,freedom,and many days without work.People can choose between parties and rest.Most people choose parties,day after day,night after night.Carnival is celebrated forty days earlier than Easter,but it is not recognized by the church.It lasts four days and four nights.People put on their holiday clothes and go out into the streets or to clubs to enjoy themselves together.
There are also some celebration activities.For instance,samba schools make a parade showing their music and beautiful cars.They are followed by people.Every year the parade tells a different story,and each city has one or more schools like this.
In the south the celebration of Carnival comes back to normal by Wednesday.The problem is that it is not recognized by the church in the northwest where the carnival is more traditional.There,people do not respect its end and continue to party until the next Sunday.
Carnival is my favorite holiday,but I do not agree that the party should keep going.Like at othr popular parties,people drink,dance and have fun.Unfortunately,some people are not very responsible and give it a bad name,leaving a bad impression of this holiday,but it is the only national holiday that brings the whole country and its different people and cultures together.
