A Christina from Spain
On the last day of the year, the 31st of December, people wait till 12 pm. Everybody must have 12 grapes(葡萄) to eat at midnight. At each sound of the clock, we must eat a group. But we can’t ever finish eating the grapes on time! Usually when people still have some grapes in their mouths, they look at each other and start to laugh. This tradition started in Spain long ago. One year, when there were a lot of grapes, the king of Spain decided to give grapes to everybody to eat on New Year’s Eve.
B Cordon from Britain
On New Year’s Day in Britain, people have parties. At 12 o’clock, the music stops, and we listen to the radio. On the radio we hear Big Ben, the famous clock in London. Then everybody sings a song about friendship and kisses their friends. We say “Happy New Year” to each other. It’s lucky if a tall man with dark hair is the first person to come to the house in the new year. So I go and visit as many friends as I can. They all give me a drink.
C Angela from Brazil
In all cities in Brazil, we have a big party on New Year’s Eve, especially in Rio de Janeiro. People in this city go to the beaches to watch fireworks(焰火)。We put flowers in the sea and think about things we want for ourselves or others.

阅读短文,根据要求完成下面各小题。
     Hi, my name is Christina Baum. I'm a fourteen-year-old German student. I'm writing to tell you about an
experiment we are doing at school with our science teacher. At the beginning of this school year, Frau Keller
showed us films and we read articles about problems in the environment. One day she said, "I want to know
what you think. Please don't tell me what we should do or must do. (3)Tell me what each of you will do to
protect the environment
."
     She asked us to choose a topic, make a weekly plan and tell the class about it. Then we had to do things
to be "green" and write a report about our success. Some students said that they thought it was impossible
for a single person to contribute to the protection of the environment. Someone else said that scientists should
work harder to find new ways to produce energy.
     Frau Keller said that it is everyone's job to care for the health of the planet. (4) After the first week,
everybody in class was excited about the project and wanted to continue to improve their results.
Someone
suggested telling the other classes in the school. Now all 768 students at Hermann Stein School are working
on the project. At the end of the year, our class will write a report about what we have done.
     (5)下星期我将会考虑怎样不会浪费水或者污染水。I'm planning to try and use less water every day,
and also not use so much of the things that make it dirty. Every time I turn on the tap (水龙头) I must think
about how much water and soap I use.
