Sample Answer
Over the years, parties and celebrations in my country have undergone significant transformations, primarily influenced by globalization and technological advancements. Traditionally, festivities were deeply rooted in cultural customs and community involvement, often featuring local food, hand-made decorations, and traditional music. However, in contemporary society, there has been a marked shift towards more commercialized and standardized events. For instance, birthday parties now frequently resemble elaborate productions with themes and professional event planners, rather than simple, family-oriented gatherings.
Furthermore, the role of social media has revolutionized how celebrations are organized and shared; events are now often publicized online, leading to larger participation but sometimes detracting from their intimate nature. This evolution reflects broader societal changes, wherein individualism and digital connectivity play an increasingly pivotal role in shaping our communal experiences.
