How I Saw the New Year in

New Year is my favourite holiday.We celebrate it on the 31st of December.

This year I celebrated New Year with my family. On New Year Eve we bought a New Year tree and decorated it with coloured balls and bright lights. We bought presents for our friends and relatives. My mother and I cooked a holiday supper. We made tasty salads, chicken, potatoes and mushrooms. We made a holiday cake, too. We bought a lot of fruit and sweets. We decorated our house with flakes and toys and put beautiful candles on the fireplace. We put a nice tablecloth, place and cups on the table.

Our guests came to visit us in the evening. They gave me wonderful presents. My aunt gave me a teddy bear as a present. My uncle`s present for me was a beautiful doll.

Then Father Frost came to our place. He was so funny! He had a big bag of presents.I told him a poem about winter, and he gave me a computer game as a present.

At last New Year came! We congratulated our dearest and nearest and wished them a Happy New Year! We enjoyed food and drinks. We danced, sang songs and played. I played the guitar. We had a good time together.

New Year was a merry and a happy holiday. I liked it very much.

 

Новый год - мой любимый праздник. Мы отмечаем его 31 декабря.

В этом году я отмечала Новый год со своей семьей. В канун Нового года мы купили ёлку и украсили её разноцветными шарами и яркими огнями. Мы купили подарки нашим друзьям и родственникам. Мы с мамой приготовили праздничный ужин. Мы сделали вкусные салаты, курицу с картошкой и грибами. Мы также испекли праздничный торт. Мы купили много фруктов и конфет. Мы украсили наш дом снежинками и игрушками, и поставили красивые свечи на камин. Мы постелили красивую скатерть и поставили тарелки и чашки на стол.

Наши гости пришли к нам вечером. Они подарили мне чудесные подарки. Моя тетя подарила мне плюшевого медведя.В подарок от дяди я получила красивую куклу

Потом пришел Дед Мороз. Он был такой забавный! У него был большой мешок с подарками. Я рассказала ему стишок про зиму, и он подарил мне компьютерную игру.

Наконец, наступил Новый год! Мы поздравили наших самых близких и дорогих и пожелали им счастливого нового дома. Мы наслаждались едой и напитками. Мы танцевали, пели песни и играли. Я играла на гитаре. Мы хорошо провели время вместе.

Новый год был весёлый и счастливый праздник. Мне он очень понравился.

Big Ben is one of the most popular places of interest in London and symbols of England. Every year many people visit the capital of Great Britain to see it and take some photos with it in the background. It is thought that Big Ben is a high tower with a very big clock, but that’s not really true.

Рассказ на английском языке

In fact, this tower is called Saint Stephens Tower, but people, even those who live in the UK, are used to calling it "Big Ben." Actually, Big Ben is the huge bell inside the building. Its weight is about thirteen tons and it rings every hour daily: once at one o'clock, twice at two o'clock and so on. However, people who live near the tower can hear at New Year’s Night how the bell strikes thirteen. It’s considered to be the biggest bell ever made in the country. The bell was firstly used in 1859 and was cracked soon because of the heavy hammer, which struck too strong. After this situation the hammer was changed, but that crack is still there.
