Unit 4 Traditions.. .traditions..... Holidays I think all people like holidays, because they don't work and have a good time. They can visit their friends and relatives, invite guests and have a lot of fun. There are many different holidays. On the first of January we celebrate New Year. On the twenty-fifth of December we have Christmas. On the eighth of March we congratulate our mothers, grandmothers, sisters and all the women with their holiday. The twenty-fourth of August is Independence Day. But our favourite holidays are Christmas and New Year. They are full of magic, presents and hopes. Every year we have a New Year tree and decorate it with toys, tinsel and coloured lights. We send and get many greeting cards. We buy and give presents to our dearest and nearest. I like to get presents. Last year my parents gave me a wonderful game and many tasty things as a present. Next year I would like to get a puppy, because I like pets and I want to take care of somebody. Puppies are so charming. I'm going to make something with my own hands for my Mum, Dad, Granddad and Granny. We usually have a holiday supper with many tasty things.
