People all over the world celebrate the new year. However, not all countries celebrate in the same way, and in some countries, the new year doesn’t begin on the      day every year.

In many countries, the New Year begins on 1st January, but people start celebrating on 31st December, New Year’s Eve. In New York many people go to celebrate in Times Square.       they’re waiting for the New Year, they listen to music, sing traditional songs and have fun. Just before 12 o’clock, everyone      down from 10: 10, 9, 8… As soon as it’s 12 o’clock, everyone shouts very     , “Happy New Year!”

New Year’s Day is often a family day. Some families get together for a special meal. When the weather is fine, many families go out for a     .

On New Year’s Day, many people make resolutions for the new year. They      a list of things, such as “I will help out more with  housework. I will work      at school than others.” or “I won’t spend so much time playing video games.” When they have made 8 list, they read it to their family or friends and promise to     their resolutions.

So it doesn’t matter how they celebrate,       people in countries all over the world, it’s a time to say goodbye to the old year, and to welcome the new.
