1. Do you think it's important to have family reunions frequently? Why?
Candidate 1: In my opinion, it is important to have family reunions frequently. We have to go school everyday and our parents have to go work, so we haven't much time to get together and communicate. If we have family reunions frequently, we can enjoy family time and feel relaxed. Communication can help us to achieve better relationship with our parents. In this way, we can get a harmonious family.
Candidate 2: Nowdays, as the pace of life is becoming faster and faster more and more people think there is no time or necessity to have family reunions. However, deep in my heart I do believe that it is important to have family reunions frequently. The reasons in my mind can be summed up in two aspects.
First of all, each of us becomes busy because of the fast speed of life. We do not have enough time to stay with our families. As a result, the emotion among family members becomes a problem. There is no doubt that frequent family reunion is the best way to build and improve our family emotion.
In the second place is the generation gap. With the change of our society the generation gap tends to be bigger and bigger. Having family reunion can help parents and children know each other better.
Such family reunions, I firmly believe, play an important role in everyone's life.

Finally, having family reunions could let family members enjoy the warmth of the family. They can love the life and appreciate it. Except that, family holidays can relieve(减轻) them from their busy work and improve their health conditions.
