Irina's submission: Average Rating:
Many great holidays and anniversaries are celebrated in our country. But my favorite holiday is New Year's Day, of course. It is a really wonderful holiday. People get ready for this holiday long before it. They buy New Year trees and decorate them. Every year a fairy-tale comes to every house and every family on New Year's Eve. Children and even grown-ups wait for this day because they believe that all their wishes and desires come true and different wonderful miracles happen on that day. On New Year’s Eve people get together to see “the old year out and the new year in”. They eat tasty food, drink champagne, dance and have a good time together. They wish each other happiness and good luck in the New Year and put the presents under the New Year tree. Children like this holiday very much. They wait for New Year presents, which, they believe, Father Frost brings to them. Everybody is merry on that day and wishes the next year to be good and happy and all one's troubles and disappointments to remain in the past

    Very, very good. Some minor corrections. Excellent description of New Years.

    Many great holidays and anniversaries are celebrated in our country. But my favorite holiday is New Year's Day, of course. It is a really a wonderful holiday.

Children and even grown-ups wait for this day because they believe that all their wishes and desires will come true and different wonderful miracles will happen on that day. On New Year’s Eve people get together to see “the old year out and the new year in.” They eat tasty food, drink champagne, dance and have a good time together. They wish each other happiness and good luck in the New Year and put the presents under the New Year tree. Children like this holiday very much.

    Excellent text. I have one doubt about the sentence "Every year a fairy-tale comes to every house". A 'fairy-tale' is a story. Do you mean a 'fairy'?
