Different countries celebrate NewYear in different ways – (1) ! The Chinese New

Year is in late January or February, the Jewish NewYear is in the autumn, and most Indian people

celebrate NewYear in the spring. But in many parts of the world, 1 January is NewYear’s Day.This

is the original date (2) . Although the new year starts on 1 January in many countries,

it starts at different times because of international time zones; for example, the new year in

Australia starts ten hours earlier than in Britain.

People all over the world have parties on 31 December, NewYear’s Eve.At midnight, they hold

hands and sing Auld Lang Syne.This famous song, by the Scottish poet, Robert Burns, says we

should remember the past (3) .

The Scottish have the best NewYear celebrations in Britain, and NewYear’s Eve has a special

name in Scotland: Hogmanay. People celebrate with bonfires and fireworks, and in some towns

they burn an old boat to say (4) . Many people in Scotland go and visit their friends

after midnight, early on 1 January.They believe that the first person to enter the home on New

Year’s Day can bring good luck.This person should carry presents: (5) , so the family

are not hungry, poor or cold in the new year.

People everywhere have hopes for the new year, and some make a list of NewYear resolutions:

things they want to do better in future. For example, they promise to be tidier, to work harder,

(6) . But sometimes their resolutions don’t last very long!

The carnival in New Orleans, Louisiana is one of the most famous

carnival celebrations in the world. It starts on 6th January, just after

the Christmas season, lasts for about three weeks and finishes on

Shrove Tuesday.

It’s the time of parades, balls and parties. The largest ones take

place during the last five days of the festival. The parades are

organised by Krewes, groups of people who create floats –

beautifully decorated platforms. When the parades move along the

streets, people on floats called float riders throw small toys to the

crowd.

On the last day of the carnival, the Mardi Gras (‘Fat Tuesday’),

nobody in the city of New Orleans goes to work. Many people wear

costumes and masks. Local high school bands join the parades and

march through the streets playing loud music.

The Carnival is a time of joy and happiness. Even the terrible

Hurricane Katrina in 2005 did not stop the custom. The festival still

takes place every year. Let’s hope it will stay that way!
