It is celebrated on the first day of the lunar calendar, so it is also called Lunar New Year. People also call it Guo Nian. That’s because it’s said that in ancient times, a monster called Nian came out to devour people on New Year’s Eve. So people lit firecrackers to scare it away.The traditional festival is a good time for the family and friends to reunite, so on that day people try their best to go back to their families and spend the evening of the last day of the last lunar month with their family, having a New Year’s Eve dinner together and talking happily. In the following morning, people make New Year calls on friends and relatives to give best wishes and congratulations.More food is consumed during the New Year celebrations than any other time of the year. Children can get not only new clothes, but also delicious food and lucky money. Most people are on holiday for about a week, attending all kinds ofentertainment.Step IV Speaking and writingWORKBOOK中的speaking and writing,可视学生水平安排在本堂课或留做作业。
