It has __________ __________ rain in our city in spring.

People all over the world celebrate the new year. However, not all c1. celebrate it in the same way, and in some places, the new year doesn't begin on, the same date every year.

In many countries, the new year b2. on 1st January, but people start celebrating on 31st December, New Year's Eve. In New York many people go to celebrate in Times Square. While they're w3. for the New Year, they listen to music, sing songs and have fun. Just before 12 o'clock, everyone counts down from 10:10,9,8.… As soon as it's 12o'clock, everyone s4.very loudly, "Happy New Year!"

New Year's Day is often a family day. Some families get together for a s5. meal. When the weather is fine, many families go out for a walk.

On New Year's Day, many people make resolutions (下决心) for the new year. They w6.down a list of thing, such as “ I will help mother with more h7. , I will work harder at school than others” or “I won't spend so much time playing v8. games". When they have made their list, they r9. it to their family or friends and promise(承诺) to follow their resolutions.

So it doesn't matter how they celebrate, for people in countries all over the world, it's time to say good-bye to the old year, and to welcome the n10. one·

If you have a pet like many people, you care for it as if it was your child. Meeting its needs and wants is an important part of your life, because you want it to be happy. However, there is one thing that it needs but cannot tell you about: that is music. There are a few reasons why your pet should listen to music.

Many pet owners play some music for their pets, because this can help their pets to feel better when they are at work. Most people are out throughout the day, and leave their pets alone at home. To make their pets feel comfortable and safe, they try playing some music before they leave the house. This works on all pets and makes even the most relaxed pet more comfortable to be alone at home.

You might have to change the music to see what kind of music is best for your pet. If you want to calm your pet down, you will need to play soft music instead of(代替） hard rock or hip-hop music, which might make your pet excited.

Also, you need to know that different pets respond(反应) differently to music. Hard rock music has also been found to work well to calm some pets down. And piano music works well on most pets, but it works best on cats.
