Lesson 14
New Year
New Year
• There are many holidays in our country.
They are New Year Day, Victory Day,
Christmas and others. I'd like to tell you
about my favorite holiday - New Year's
Day. Peter the First changed the Rus-sian
calendar. The first of January 1700
became New Year Day. The weather is
usually fine and there is a lot of snow
everywhere. Children don't go to school
because winter holidays. We usually have
got very interesting party at school.
• Our family prepares for this holiday before hand.
My father buys and brings home a beautiful New
Year's Tree. I like to decorate the Tree with toys,
little colored lights, sweets and stars. My mother
and grandmother prepare our holidays supper. I
make a cake. We like to see the New Year in at
home with our relatives. At 12 o'clock we are
sitting at the table and say "Best wishes for the
New Year". The New Year is always connected
with our new plans and dreams. It is a pleasant
moment to get presents on the New Year. At
night we watch TV, dance, make jokes and go for
a walk with my friends. I enjoy this holiday very
much.
Words:
New Year‘s tree-новогодняя елка
relative- родственник
New Year‘s Eve-канун Нового года
