Different people have different opinions about the length of vacations. In China, the short vacation usually last for three days which is not long enough for people to do the things they really want. And the long vacation is usually a week, which is called “the golden week”. Some people prefer short vacations, for they don’t know what to do when they don’t need to work. Others love long vacations better, for they can spend their precious time on different kinds of activities. As for me, I prefer long vacations for the following reasons.

不同的人對假期的長度有不同的看法。在中國，短期假日一般持續(xù)三天，對那些想要做些什么的人來說明顯時(shí)間不夠長，而長假一般為一個(gè)星期，所以也被稱之為“黃金周”。一些人喜歡短假，因?yàn)樗麄儾恢啦挥蒙习鄷r(shí)應(yīng)該做些什么。另一些人則更喜歡長假，他們可以在長假中進(jìn)行自己喜愛的各種活動。對我來說，我更喜歡長假，有如下的幾個(gè)原因：

First, long vacations provide people enough time to travel remote. We can go to Yunnan, Beijing, even Thailand on the long vacations. But short vacation can not do this, for the time is not enough. The days you spend on the roads will cost at least two days. The long vacations will solve this problem. Second, the long vacation is a perfect time for us to meet old friends from primary and high school. We haven’t seen each other for a while, it’s time that we can get together and have some fun. Third, we can do various activities on the long vacations. Such as barbecue, go to KTV, sleeping all day long without being disturb by phone calls. What’s more, I can reread lots of my favorite books on long vacations. Especially I still haven’t finish reading the series of A Song of Ice and Fire.

首先，長假可以讓人們有充足的時(shí)間去遠(yuǎn)方旅游。我們可以去云南，北京，甚至泰國。但是短假就不行了，你光是花在路上的時(shí)間就要兩天了。而長假則不會有這樣的問題出現(xiàn)。其次，長假是我們與小學(xué)同學(xué)、高初中同學(xué)聚會的好時(shí)候。我們很久都沒有看見彼此了，是時(shí)候聚在一起找些樂子了。第三，我們可以在長假進(jìn)行各種活動：燒烤、去KTV唱歌、睡一整天而不會被電話打擾。更好的是，我可以在長假中把自己喜歡的書在閱讀一次。特別是我還沒有讀完《冰與火之歌》系列。

Long vacations are so good, I hope it will last. For me, it’s the most relaxing time for me to do the things I want and forget all about my problems. I think the government should arrange more long vacations for people.

長假真的太棒了，我希望能永遠(yuǎn)放假。對于我來說，這是能讓我忘記自己的煩惱盡情的去做自己喜歡做的事情。我想政府應(yīng)該多多安排一些長假給我們才好。
