Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some way. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar.

In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31 st-January 1st. People may go to parties，sometimes dressed in formal (正式的） clothes, and they may drink champagne (香槟）at midnight. During the first minutes of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by waking up early to watch the sun rise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.

Many cultures also do special things to get rid of (摆脱）bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example，in Ecuador，families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight，these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh (重新)。 Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean，or saying special things on the first day of the new year. Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year’s Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck at New Year.
