La tomatina

 

 

Most countries have their unique festivals and events. I don't know exactly about festival of the world but one I know is 'La tomatina'.  It is a festival held on a Wednesday towards the end of August in the town of Bunol in the Valencia region in Spain.

What is La tomatina? La tomatina is a tomato fight festival. This festival start by sign.  A ham is places upon a pole, and someone is climb to the top and bring it down. Then People start throwing the tomatoes. In this festival we must use only mashed tomatoes. To be safe sometimes we should put on goggles and gloves.  After 1~2hours they stop throwing.

It is very big festival. Approximately 30,0.00 people come to the tomato fight. And many tourist come to Bunol to participate.

Why did it start? No one is completely certain how this event originated. One of the most popular theories is that disgruntled townspeople attacked city councilmen with tomatoes. it was enjoyed so much that it was repeated the next year, and the year after that, and so on.

La tomatima is big and loud festival. Many people attend in. the weeklong festival features music and parades. If you are going to spain, do to participate in this festival.

    1. 'La tomatina' is a festival held on a Wednesday towards the end of August in the town of Bunol in the Valencia region in Spain.

    2. There is no hook or background informations in the introduction part.

    3. The writing generally just introducts what is that festival is and its origin, but the writing present the process in one paragraph.

    4. First, a ham is placed upon a pole and as soon as someone climb up and bring it down, then the throwing is started.

    5. Body paragrahps have facts using statistics and paragraphs also have some details about the festival, but they are not just sufficient. They needs more details about the process.

    6. Conclusion just restates the introduction that what is the festival is but it does not state any of evaluation, recommendation or warning.

    1. Thesis statement
    but one I know is 'La tomatina' is a festival held on a Wednesday towards the end of August
    in the town of Bunol in the Valencia region in Spain.

    2. Hook is maybe.. Most countries have their unique festivals and events.
    However, I cannot find any background informations in the introduction.

    3. The writing does not show the process of La tomatina but it introduces about what is that festival is and its origin.

    4. First, a ham is placed upon a pole and as soon as someone climb up and bring it down, then the throwing is started.

    5. Each body paragrahps have its own details about the festival, howeever, they are too shallow.

    6. This writing's conclusion is recommendation.
