St. Patrick’s Day is for the memorization of the Irish patron Saint Patrick. Saint Patrick is a person who has contributed to Christianity a lot, and he’s essential to the Irish culture. He makes many people who did not believe Christianity initially, start to learn Christianity. He wants to back to Ireland, and persuade all of his friends and families to be Christians. Also, his strong desire to spread this culture, the churches and schools he built touched people’s heart. People celebrate this festival in special ways, and they have different symbols for St. Patrick, such as Shamrocks, which represents the Holy Trinity, and the Leprechauns is also an important element.
In the United States, people have huge celebration for this festival every year. Especially in Chicago, they dye the river into the color of green, to represent the Irish patron saint. In New York, there will be thousands of people, wear in green, and walk on the street every year, to show their belief and the origin of their culture.
Unluckily, this kind of western culture doesn’t successfully spread to my country, China. Most of the people in China probably know nothing about this interesting Irish culture, and we do not celebrate it there.
Please proofread and make corrections. Remember that St. Patrick died a LONG time ago! You should use past tense. 16/20
