【1】2017年有關(guān)元旦的來歷英文版
新的開始
A new year ,a new start, when I stand on the edge of the a new year, I can't help thinking about my plan of next year. Just as the old saying:“Well began is the half of the success.”So I decide that I should be at work while the others are still relaxing ,and then ,at the beginning ,I'm quicker than the others and of course I will get better result than the others.
But ,what I really decide to do is that I must make good of anytime I can spare though it seems impossible. While,I will do my best to live up with what I have planned, and the result will prove it.
中國(guó)的元旦，據(jù)傳說起于三皇五帝之一的顓頊，距今已有3000多年的歷史。“元旦”一詞最早出現(xiàn)于《晉書》：“顓帝以孟夏正月為元，其實(shí)正朔元旦之春”的詩(shī)中。南北朝時(shí)，南朝蕭子云的《介雅》詩(shī)中也有“四季新元旦，萬(wàn)壽初春朝”的記載。
中國(guó)最早稱農(nóng)歷正月初一為“元旦”，元是“初”、“始”的意思，旦指“日子”，元旦合稱即是“初始的日子”，也就是一年的第一天。正月初一從哪日算起，在漢武帝以前也是很不統(tǒng)一的。因此，歷代的元旦月、日也并不一致。夏朝的夏歷以孟喜月(元月)為正月，商朝的殷歷以臘月(十二月)為正月，周朝的周歷以冬月(十一月)為正月。秦始皇統(tǒng)一中國(guó)后，又以陽(yáng)春月(十月)為正月，即十月初一為元旦。從漢武帝起，才規(guī)定孟喜月(元月)為正月，把孟喜月的第一天(夏歷的正月初一)稱為元旦，一直沿用到清朝末年。但這是夏歷，亦即農(nóng)歷或陰歷，還不是我們今天所說的元旦。

From great balls of fire, to possums, grape-eating and animal whispering, we reveal the world's weirdest New Year customs.
Great balls of fire, Scotland
In Stonehaven, Scotland, there is a custom of parading through the streets on New Year’s Eve while swinging blazing balls of fire around.
The tradition is part of Scotland’s Hogmanay celebrations, although its roots trace back to the Vikings.
Graveyard camp, Chile
Locals inTalca, central Chile, like to see in the new year in the company of their dead relatives. Thought to have begun when a family broke in one year to be near their dead father, the town mayor now opens the graveyard after late-night mass and thousands sit surrounded by candles while classical music plays.
Animal whispering, Romania
Farmers try to hear their animals talk in a ritual which, if successful, signifies not just a Doctor Dolittle gift for communicating with our furry relatives but good luck for the coming year.
Mass kissing, Venice
St Mark’s Square is known for holding not only a big firework display over the Basin of St. Mark but for something far more unusual, a mass kiss-in in the piazza.
Throwing furniture, South Africa
Look out below! It’s the idea of starting the new year afresh that leads residents of Johannesburg, those in Hillsboro in particular, to throw old furniture out of their windows. Italians follow a similar tradition and, not wanting to be lumbered with anything unwanted, conduct an early spring clean by way of their windows.
Underwater tree planting, Siberia
This is the Siberian custom of cutting a hole in the ice covering Lake Baikal and diving to the lake’s bottom while carrying a New Year’s tree. Note: only professional divers participate.
Bear dances, Romania
People wanting to celebrate new year in Romania put on bear costumes and furs and dance at different houses to keep evil at bay.
Possum-dropping, America
In the town of Brasstown, North Carolina, a possum in a transparent box is lowered over a noisy crowd, in the world’s only known “possum-drop”. It reflects Brasstown’s claim to be “the possum capital of the world”.
Grape eating, Spain
Revellers seeing in the new year in Spain have their mouths full when they try to stuff twelve grapes in - one for each chime of the clock during the countdown.
Having a ball, New York
In cities around the world, from Sydney to Amsterdam, the first seconds of the new year are marked by fireworks. But dropping a ball on New Year's Eve is a wholly American tradition to count down the last fleeting moments.
The first ball dropped at midnight on New Year's Eve remains the most famous: the one on top of One Times Square in New York City.
At this New Year's Eve party, 'you shut up'
Here comes 2014! Three! … Two! … Mum.
While hundreds of thousands of revelers cheer, shout and yell in the new year in Times Square, hundreds of New Yorkers will gather not far away to pass the waning hours of 2013 without a word.
