Some different New Year traditions.
Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some way. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar.
在西方国家，人们通常在一月一日庆祝新年。People may go to parties, dress in formal clothes—like tuxedos and evening gowns, and drink champagne at midnight. During the first minutes of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by waking up early to watch the sun rise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.
It is also a common western custom to make a New Year's promise, called a resolution. New Year's resolutions usually include promises to try something new or change a bad habit in the new year.
Many cultures also do special things to get rid of bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight, these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh. Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the first day of the new year.
Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. A widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year's Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck at New Year. In the United States, some people eat black -eyed peas for good luck-but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them!
10．When do people in western countries usually celebrate New Year
11．What do New Year's resolutions usually include
12．How many black-eyed do the people in the USA have to eat to get good luck for a whole year

"I successfully realized the dream that I've had since I was a kid. I've always dreamed about winning this gold medal before 18 years old. I made it," he said. "I also want everyone to know that I can not only be good at one thing, but I can be the best at anything I like. I've learned a lesson that hard work would never lie. Today I proved it."
Su's experience is an inspiration（激励；鼓舞）to us. Success requires much more than just talent. Hard work matters a lot.

Throughout the history of buman beings , the dialogue betveen civilizations (文明）bas served as a spiritual connection for people of different nations.　22． 　
Let's travel back to two thousand years ago - the Western Han Dynasty. A man returning from the western areas was reporting his journey to the emperor. This man was Zhang Qian. His job was actually not for cultural purposes.　23． 　Also, he brought home many kinds of plants and musical instruments.
　24． 　In a hotel in Dongiaominxiang Alley in Beijing, an elder was giving a speech in English.The specch was about the spirit of Chinese people. The man was Gu Hongming, a highly admired educator who could speak nine languages. Gu spent his life translating the Confucian（儒家的）classics into English and western poems into Chinese.
Time to look at the modern age. In a hit video on the Internet, a girl wearing common clothes is putting bef and potatos into a pot.　25． 　 Her videos have got popular at home and abroad, spreading Chinese culture through recordings of life in the countryside.
People of different dynasties, different areas and social backgrounds have used their voices as a bridge for cultural dialogue.

根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息。
As time moves forward, everything around us changes. It is technology that makes our life much better! Here are some examples.
The way people keep in touch
Then: Snail mail（邮寄信件）was a main way. I remember having pen pals in primary school and being very excited about writing letters and buying stamps. Although there's something good about the idea of snail mail, it often took a longer time and caused trouble for both the letter givers and the receivers, and even the postmen.
Now: Today, people can receive our message on social media the minute we send it.
Video chat is often made as well. Technology has successfully shortened the time from several days to minutes. But because it has become so easy, we often neglect（忽视）a face-to-face conversation with others.
The way people travel
Then: People once thought that the roads were dangerous. When cars were a new invention, a man walked in front of them with a red flag, advising and guiding other passengers to be careful. Now, of course, we are used to them.
Now: My grandparents still can't get over the fact that with a click of a button, you can have a car pick you up right to your doorstep. Besides, with the help of technology, travel can become a lot more eco-friendly. Gone are the days when you had to print out your airline or train tickets. Instead, we now have e-tickets.
The way people relax and have fun
Then: Over half a century ago, we were first introduced to the large and heavy box called a television set. Your grandparents can tell you that when they first started watching TV, pictures were black and white. Fewer TV shows were provided for us in the early years, and most of them were about family or news.
Now: Programs about almost everything can be easily found. We can read news on the Internet, read books on e-readers and watch movies online, too.
Technology has made our life easier, faster and more interesting. It seems that our dependence on technology isn't such a bad thing.
Comparison about Life in the　27． 　and at　28． 　
Then Now
　29． 　 ● People were happy about having pen pals and being very excited. ● The way of snail mail was slow and brought trouble. ● The message can be received quickly after　30． 　. ● People are short of a face-to-face conversation.
Transportation ● A helper held a red flag and others not to go near cars. ● Thanks to technology, people can travel easier and faster in an 　31． 　way.
Entertainment ● The TV was large and heavy. ● Pictures were black and white on TV. ● Only 　32． 　of shows were available on TV. ● More programs are on show on TV. ● More ways are provided to relax and have fun.
Conclusion: Modern technology really makes a lot of difference to our life.
