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.
In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st—January 1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal(正式的) clothes, and they may drink champagne(香槟)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.
Many cultures also do special things to get rid of(摆脱) 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(重新). 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. One 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!

Have you heard about “Survival Holidays” 12 Now about 1, 100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.
The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games.
13
Is it a wonderful idea Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing(干扰) them. 14 They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled(控制) by adults, which causes many problems. Children don't know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even slight danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.
Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in dangerous times. 15
Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.
根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. “Survival Holidays” gives them an important change. B. Children depend on their parents too much. C. Some have learned how to keep safe. D. It is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities. E. Parents care too much about their children.

One possible version:
Hi Teresa,
I’m glad to hear from you. My favourite festival is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is one of the most important traditional Chinese festivals. We have celebrated it for more than 1,000 years. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a public holiday, and we have one day off. Every year, we celebrate it on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month with our family. That night, the moon looks not only round but also bright. We share moon cakes and enjoy the full moon.
Hey, why don’t you come to China and spend the festival with us this year It will be great fun. Yours,
Li Lei
