Fireworks–to be forbidden or not
When the Spring Festival of 20xx was around the corner, bans on fireworks frequently came out. Some citizens think it necessary to forbid setting off fireworks. For one thing, fireworks worsen air pollution and give rise to smog. For another, they often bring about fires, and even cause great loss of property in addition to severe injuries and deaths.
However, those who are opposed to banning fireworks think it the Chinese tradition to set off fireworks. It is a way of adding to atmosphere of happiness. Besides, fireworks are not set off every day, so it is absolutely not the major source of environmental problem.
Personally speaking, I think it a good idea to ban fireworks for the sake of safety. Anyway, we have many other ways of celebrating the New Year such as having parties. Above all, forbidding fireworks may well let citizens have a peaceful New Year’s Eve.

該不該禁止燃放煙花爆竹
20xx春節臨近時,煙花爆竹的禁令就頻繁地出來了。一些市民認為有必要禁止燃放煙花爆竹。一方面,煙花會加劇空氣污染並產生煙霧。另一方面,他們經常帶來火災,甚至造成重大損失的財產,除了嚴重的傷害和死亡。
然而,那些反對禁止煙火的人認為燃放煙花是中國的傳統。這是一種增加快樂氣氛的方式。此外,煙花不是每天燃放的,所以絕對不是環境問題的主要來源。
就我個人而言,我認為為了安全起見,禁止燃放煙花是個好主意。無論如何,我們還有許多慶祝新年的其他方式,比如聚會。最重要的是,禁止煙火可能會讓市民有一個和平的除夕夜。
