New Year is the most long-awaited (долгожданный) holiday. Many people associate it with magic and gifts. First of all it is surrounded by the wonderful smell of tangerines and Christmas trees, which helps to create a festive mood (праздничное настроение). People of all ages truly (искренне) believe that in New Year their goals (цели) and wishes will come true.
New Year is an international holiday, but in every country it is celebrated in many different ways (разными горький) food. In Spain on this day there is a tradition to swallow (глотать) one grape (виноград) for every time the bell chimes (звон курантов) and make a wish.
On New Year my family and I decorate the house and the Christmas tree and give each other gifts, wishing success (успех) in the New Year.
New Year’s Eve is my favorite holiday and I always look forward (ждать с нетерпением) to it.

Dear Kate,
How are you? You haven't written to me for such a long time! I enjoy our holiday here, in Italy. We arrived here on Saturday and have already tried the local food. I liked their special pizza a lot. But their spagetti was too spicy. We go to the beach every day. I do a lot of sunbathing. It's quite warm here. We haven't done the sightseeing yet but we have one more week for it.
Best regards,
Chloe
Дорогая Кэйт,
Как у тебя дела? Ты мне уже так долго не писала! Я наслаждаюсь отпуском здесь, в Италии. Мы приехали сюда в субботу и уже попробовали местную кухню. Мне очень понравилась их особенная пицца. Но их спагетти были слишком перченые. Мы каждый день ходим на пляж. Я много загораю. Здесь достаточно тепло. Мы пока не ходили осматривать достопримечательности, но у нас есть на это еще одна неделя.
С любовью,
Хлоя
