总把新桃换旧符。

My New Year
新年新气象。新的一年,让我们一起制订自己的新年计划吧!
New Year for me is a new beginning. Every time, on New Year's Eve, I would write down a list of a few resolutions for the coming year. I would review them a year later, before the beginning of the next new year, to see if those goals were achieved.
However, my plans would rarely come to life—no wonder! With the New Year celebration, holidays and family outings, it was hard to remember about them after holidays. It is like making a wish and hoping it will come true. This year I've decided to take a different approach to my New Year's resolutions.
I have noted down a few resolutions that I would like to take this year and stick to them. The most important of all is to be organized. I never have the habit of organizing my work and therefore end up with incomplete homework and projects. So this year I plan to be more systematic and organized, so that I finish my work on time and do not put off the works assigned to me.
Secondly, I would like to be a good reader, which must come first before any other resolution. I have been fully aware that reading makes a full man, but I hardly take the time to read, even if I have time. So this time I have decided that I would spent some time in a day reading a book that would enrich my knowledge and develop my interest in reading.
Another area that I would like to improve myself is dealing with the excess time spent on the Internet. Hours together I sit in front of the system, though I know it is just wasting my time. I have decided to cut down the time I use for surfing and make it more productive, rather than just visiting social networking sites and chatting.
Along with the Internet, the other electronic item that has addicted me is the cell phone. I spent hours talking over the phone not realizing the harmful effects it causes, and it wastes my time and money. I have decided to cut it down only for essentials like my poor mathematics and to spend more quality time with my classmates.
This time, I am determined to stick to my resolutions and get myself corrected to be a much better person, both for myself and to the society.

我们为什么要庆祝新年?
新年代表著新的希望、新的起点。不管过去的一年是成功或是艰辛,新的一年即将到来,这是新的希望与憧憬,我们要加油鼓气,对未来充满信心。
The New Year is itself new which brings new light on the face of people, birds, and plants. Everything looks new in the New Year, when people throughout the world spread happiness and love. They join hands for consistency of peace and hope on the earth.
The first reason for celebrating the New Year is to make planning chart for the year. As the New Year comes with lots of fun and entertainment, a person also thinks for the whole year in the New Year. The 365 days is not a minor thing that can be spent without making planning. Setting new goals helps to reach yourself in your destiny. So it will be your big deal and right opportunity to make plans for the year according to your goal or target.
The second reason for celebrating the New Year is to get more fun and entertainment. The New Year will also be the boring day if there is not entertainment in first January. Every person wants to make this day special and the New Year memorable. Days of the life can't be wasted.
Another reason for celebrating the New Year is to forget about the past. People take part in the celebration of the New Year to forget about the past and make the present hopeful and enjoyable. They forget all the past bad memory and events that have recurred and make the new year more special and memorable. This is one of the best reasons why we celebrate the New Year's day.
The final reason is to greet a new start of year and life. As we know, the first impression is the last impression. People celebrating the New Year hope to make a change and a difference just from the very beginning.
There're also some other reasons for celebrating the New Year. We celebrate it to remember our ancestors, to inherit our culture and to get together with our family. So wherever you go around the world, the celebration of the New Year is just with you.

难忘的中国春节
Mitchell Blat
The day I arrived in China for the first time was the Lantern Festival 2011. Firecrackers exploded in alleyways, lighting up the night and adding to the already great excitement of exploring a large city with a diverse culture.
Now I am getting ready to celebrate my second Spring Festival in China (not including my 2011celebration). The Spring Festival is sometimes referred to by Chinese people speaking to foreigners as “the Christmas of China”. Both holidays usually involve people eating and drinking together as a family and there are some similarities, but the Spring Festival has its own characteristics and meaning.
In my view as an American in China, the Spring Festival is a beautiful two-week-long celebration when family and friends get together, which begins with Chinese New Year and ends with the Lantern Festival. It is celebrated with various Chinese cultural activities, which makes it all the more exciting for me to observe some things I do not see every day. In contrast to Christmas, the Spring Festival is a holiday that includes almost everyone in China.
During the Spring Festival in Shanghai in 2013, a friend invited me to dinner with his family on the eve of the traditional Chinese New Year. Three generations, children, fathers and mothers, uncles and cousins, and grandparents were there. Before the dinner, the youngest generation were asked to give short speeches wishing a prosperous new year. After a long procession of dishes, no one could say they were hungry.
After dinner, we went out to the street, and my friend taught me how to launch fireworks the Chinese way—lighting them with a cigarette. The fireworks exploded over the streetlights and passed cars on the road. I can't imagine doing that in America. It isn't allowed in many states to even launch fireworks in the countryside, let alone in a crowded city like Shanghai.
One year later I was celebrating the Lantern Festival in Beijing with some Chinese friends. We purchased fireworks and set off to Houhai, a crowded bar district by Houhai lake. The area was already raucous with explosions on every corner. We only added to the crack. Luckily, setting off fireworks has been strictly prohibited in many cities so far!

A. Preparing so many dishes.

Cultural Background
燃放鞭炮的历史渊源
《荆楚岁时记》中记载到:“正月一日,是三元之日也。谓之端月,鸡鸣而起,先于庭前爆竹、燃草,以辟山魈恶鬼。” 这也是后来人们在春节燃放鞭炮的由来。由此可见,“爆竹”一词的本意是焚竹而爆。放鞭炮有着辞旧迎新之说,寓意着对新的一年的美好向往。
相传在远古时代,有一种凶猛的怪兽叫“年”,它一年四季都待在深海里,但每逢新旧岁之交,便出来糟蹋庄稼,伤害人畜,百姓叫苦连天。有一次它又跑到村庄里为非作歹,但被一户人家门口晾的大红衣服吓跑了。到了另一处,又被灯光吓得抱头鼠窜。于是人们掌握了“年”怕声音、怕红色、怕火光的弱点。每至年末岁首,人们就在家门口贴红联、放鞭炮、挂红灯,院子里烧柴禾、拢旺火,用菜刀剁菜、剁肉,发出声音。
