     The Spring Festival, Chinese Lunar New Year, is China"s most significant holiday of the year, when families get together to celebrate.

countryside to celebrate the New Year,"said Li. "I feel that I can only have a

central China"s Henan Province. Interested in folk craftwork , Li bought two boxes of local products such as a special kind of mud sculpture (混塑) and
New Year paintings, only available during the Spring Festival.
   "Everything in the countryside is very traditional, just like how people
celebrated the New Year in old times, while in the city there isn"t much
holiday atmosphere," Li said. "The farmers are very down-to-earth and they
have kept all the traditions. "

     The first thing that man invented for sports was the ball.
     In ancient Egypt, everywhere, throwing stones was the game that children loved most. But it was bad
to hurt a child throwing a rock. While looking for something less dangerous to throw, the Egyptians made
the first ball.

pieces of animal skin sewed together and filled with feathers.

     From the time we were babies we have been taught manners. We are taught how to hold a knife and
fork and not to talk with our mouths full. We are taught how to shake hands and when to stand and when
to sit and the way to introduce people.
     Sometimes good manners in one place are very bad manners somewhere else. Almost everywhere
eating together means that people are very friendly to each other. But in parts of Polynesia(波利尼西亚)
it is bad manners to be seen eating beside each other. So they politely turn their backs to each other when
they are taking food.
      Some East Africans spit four times as a kind of blessing(祝福). They do it to show that they want a
sick person to get well or to bless a newborn baby. In most other places, spitting means something
completely different. It usually shows an unhealthy habit. In many countries, it may mean that you hate
someone.
     When we go to visit someone we say "Hello!"Or"How are you?" or things like that. But if you are
visiting an East African village, everyone will be very careful not to pay attention to you. The polite thing
there will be for you to go quietly, without speaking to anyone, and sit beside your friend. You should
wait until he has finished what he is doing and then he will begin talking to you.
     In a village in Arab, a visitor will walk behind all the tents until he gets to the one he wants to visit. If
he passes in front, he will be invited into each tent and asked to eat. It is rude to refuse.

     Going on holidays is best choice for the Europeans to relax themselves, especially in the UK.
However, much has changed during the past decades(几十年).
     One of the most traditional British holidays was the"seasideholiday". Families got on a train or
into a car and traveled to seaside towns nearby to sunbathe on the beach, buy ice-creams and
eatfish and ships and so on.
     In the late 1970s, more and more British people started traveling to other countries in Europe
for their summer holidays(July-August) because the weather wasn"t very good, even in summer.
The"package holiday"was particularly popular with most families.
     In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became wealthier, so many of them traveled
to countries all over the worldfor their holidays.
     These years, especially after the world financial crisis(金融危机), most British people can not
afford to spend their holidays abroad. They again begin to choose to stay in their own home and
go on a few day trips rather than spending money on hotels. Theycall this sort of vacation a"staycation".
