Week-long Holidays,Good or Bad?Whats Your Opinion?

Our National Day is coming. We shall have days of rest,presumably weeklong holidays again just like the weeklong May Day holidays. Many people welcome weeklong holidays and are busy planning where and how to spend the seven days;whereas many other people do not applaud. As to me, weeklong holidays mean a span of dullness, boredom, melancholy and helplessness, and I think anyone who had experienced the holiday sufferings in May would share my feelings.

I well remember that from May Day, to be more exact, a few days earlier than May Day, the shopping season shops extended their shopping hours to respond to their overwhelmingly enthusiastic customers. There were special sales with discount coupons and instant lucky draws and various sales promotions in nearly every big store to lure po tential customers into spending more. Crowds of shoppers flocked towards department stores, enjoying their high purchasing power.

There were traffic jams almost everywhere, people waited in long queues at bus-stops:and taxi-stands? looking entirely ers flared when people gotpushed or if someone else cut the tient drivers honked at each other every now and then.
