28、你们怎么看呢？ 尊敬的编辑， 最近三年，我家都是在外面吃年夜饭的，和在家吃比起来，在外面吃一样开心。我不理解为什 么有些人拒绝接受改变。 难道他们不觉得准备年夜饭很辛苦吗？花这么长的时间准备一顿饭，然后饭后再花一个小时来 收拾，我真心觉得不值。辛苦一年了，为什么不能用这一天的时间陪陪家人，放松一下呢？ 在外面吃年夜饭是个不错的选择，而且这也谈不上丢弃传统。我们还是和同样的人一起吃饭， 只是换了地方而已。不用辛苦地做饭，用餐会更加令人愉悦，而且(饭店的)饭菜味道也更好！ 在我看来，除夕夜我们吃什么、在哪里吃并不重要。在外面的饭店吃年夜饭可能会改变这个传 统的表现形式，但是围坐在餐桌前的家人之间的
29、亲情并没有改变。 王鹏，软件工程师 尊敬的编辑， 今年我儿子在城里最好的饭店订了桌年夜饭，可我不怎么高兴。对我来说，在外面吃年夜饭感 觉不像过年。 小时候，我最期待的就是除夕的年夜饭。不仅可以吃到平时难以吃到的美食，而且全家人能有 机会团聚在一起。那时我会在家里跑来跑去，听大人们闲聊他们这一年的情况。我还会缠着在厨房 做饭的妈妈，看着她包饺子。她会在有些饺子里放一点儿“彩头”：糖果寓意生活甜美，花生寓意健 康长寿。到了晚上，我们都围坐在餐桌前，享受美食和团聚的乐趣。大家互相敬酒，谈笑风生，简 简单单的家常菜吃起来比顶级厨师做的饭菜都要美味。 我希望我的子孙后代依旧珍视全家人一起准备年夜饭的回忆。对我来说，准备的过程比年夜饭 本身更重要。 刘永辉，退休教师
