2. Read the text and choose the correct word.
Food around the world
New Year In China people eat eight, ten or twelve dishes of food at New
Year. This is because an even number means double the luck. A lot of the food at
New Year has a special meaning. Seaweed means good luck and long noodles
mean long life. They eat whole vegetables and don't use knives to cut things,
because this means the end of your good luck. In Russia there is lots of food on the
table so the next year will be happy and plentiful. At 11.59 people open
champagne and wait for the clock to strike twelve. Then they make a toast for the
New Year. They wish everybody good luck and happiness.In Spain people eat
twelve grapes - one with each chime of the clock at midnight. This brings good
luck for the next twelve months. But it is difficult to eat twelve grapes in twelve
seconds, so people usually have a mouth full of grapes at the end!
Weddings: Italians cat doughnuts in the shape of bowties for good luck.
They also eat sugared almonds when they hope for a baby.Many years ago, in
Britain the father of the bride gave the groom 'honey mead' (a honey drink) for a
whole month. In this way the couple had a month of sweetness and happiness. We
have now changed the word to 'honeymoon' - the holiday a couple goes on after
their wedding
Birthdays: When a child is born in China, the father gives red eggs to his
friends and family - an even number for a girl and an odd number for a boy. The
birthday party started in Europe in the Middle Ages. People were afraid of ghosts
and bad spirits on their birthdays. Friends and family came to visit you with
presents to stop them. In Mexico people fill a paper animal with sweets. Children
close their eyes and hit the animal until the sweets fall out. Then everybody eats
the sweets.
