What is Chinese New Year?
In many parts of Asia, nations follow the lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar used by the rest of the world.【B1】______Many nations including Vietnam and Korea celebrate the lunar New Year with festivals and special foods. The Chinese, however, have turned the celebration into an art form:a 15 day festival called the Spring Festival in China, although it is known to the rest of the world as Chinese New Year.
【B2】______which is considered to be a particularly auspicious day. Children are given hong bao, lucky red envelopes full of money, and households exchange visits and gifts. Most celebrants at Chinese New Year wear red, which is a lucky color, and also refrain from reflecting on the past year and uttering unlucky words, as it is believed that the first day of the new year will determine your fortune in the months to come.
Chinese New Year continues with 15 days of celebration and auspicious days, including a day to welcome the god of wealth, a day to celebrate farming and produce, and days to celebrate friends and family. Friendships and family relationships are a very important part of Chinese New Year, 【B3】______Numerous lucky foods are served throughout the Chinese New Year festival , and after all that rich dining, the 13th day of the festival is set aside for eating rice and bitter greens to cleanse the palate.

During the Lantern Festival, hundreds of citizens flood the street with lanterns representing wealth, animals, historical figures, plants, and a variety of other things.【B4】______The Lantern Festival ends with a burst of fireworks to celebrate the upcoming year while celebrants eat special round dumplings to celebrate unity.

Much like Chinese New Year, Tet is believed to be an especially auspicious period in Vietnam which will establish the fortunes of celebrants for the coming year.【B5】______In Korea, the one day festival is known as Sol-nal, and is a time to reflect on ancestors and family.
