They were then told to carry this bag with them everywhere they went for a week. They would put it inside their quilts 34 , on the seats when sitting in a car or on a bus, and next to their desks at school.

B
Wang Xingyue, 14, from Shanghai: I don’t think we should set off firecrackers (爆竹) during holidays. It is really noisy. Some people fire them during midnight. People around cannot sleep well. Besides, it brings air pollution and lots of rubbish. Most people do not clean the rubbish after they set off firecrackers. So I think there is no need to set them off anymore during holidays.
Liu Ran, 14, from Shandong: Setting off firecrackers is a tradition during Chinese festivals. They set them off to celebrate or wish a happy new year. The ceremony (仪式) is very important in Chinese people’s lives. And it also reminds us of one of the four great inventions of China, gunpowder (火药). We cannot give it up. It is good to have this ceremony during holidays. Do you agree with me?
Lin Yisong, 15, from Zhejiang: I think we should control the setting off of firecrackers. During holidays, the government could get people together in a place. They can set off some firecrackers or fireworks and people can watch. It is safer to do this and people can also enjoy their holiday tradition.
Zhang Qi, 14, from Guangxi: Firecrackers are dangerous and bad for the air. But it is really an important tradition in Chinese festivals. So I think we can use something else to replace them. For example, we can use LED fireworks instead. It is also beautiful and attractive. And it is much safer. Even kids can play with them.
Li Qing, 14, from Jiangsu: I think we can improve the technology of firecrackers. The firecrackers we use now are dangerous. That’s why we cannot fire them anytime or anywhere we want. But if we can make them much safer and good for the air, we don’t have to give up the interesting tradition during Chinese festivals.
