Should Firecrackers Be Banned?
范文：
People have different opinions on whether firecrackers should be banned or not.
Some people think that it’s a good thing to let off firecrackers. To them, letting off firecrackers is a traditional means to celebrate some special days, such as National Day and the Spring Festival. It can add much to the festival atmosphere. If firecrackers were banned, the festivals would become too quite to enjoy. While other people hold that firecrackers should be banned. They list many facts to support their argument. For instance, many big fires are caused by firecrackers. Some children are seriously hurt. Letting off firecrackers also makes much noise and causes air pollution.
As far as I am concerned, firecrackers should be banned. It is true that firecrackers make our festivals more enjoyable, but we can come up with other entertainments. In short, firecrackers should be banned for the benefit of all people.
