① In some Asian countries, people celebrate the New Year in four of five day. In other countries, they celebrate Christmas and the New Year together. For example, in the UK there is a long holiday from the 24th of December to the 2nd of January. On New Year’s Eve, British people often eat, drink and go to parties. Many people go to Trafalgar Square in London or a street party in their city. Others visit friends or go to pubs and restaurants. These places are very crowded on that night. There is a great atmosphere when everyone waits for Big Ben to strike midnight. Then people kiss and hold hands to sing the traditional Scottish song Auld Lang Syne happily.

New Year’s Day is a holiday for nearly everyone in the UK. Very few trains and buses run on New Year’s Day. Most people stay at home and relax with their families.
There is an old tradition in Scotland and some other parts of the UK that the first person to enter someone’s home on New Year’s Day will bring all the luck for the coming year with them. This tradition is called first footing.
The first person to enter a house on New Year’s Day is known as the first footer. Dark-haired people are thought to be the luckiest first footers, and it is traditional to carry a lump of coal when going first footing.
People often make New Year’s resolutions at the start of the New Year. Resolutions are things that people have decided (or resolved) to do to make their lives better, such as stopping smoking or losing weight. Not everybody manages to keep their New Year’s resolutions, though!
