春节愿望口语段子

1) In most cases, I tend to celebrate the new year by going out for dinner with my family. It’s really relaxing to spend the night with your intimate beloved ones. But sometimes, I would hang out with my best friends or go to an open-air event like fireworks show with them.

2) Yes, I do believe the new year celebration is of great importance to me. When I celebrate the new year, I vividly feel that a new beginning comes. And I can set new goals, make resolutions to improve myself, and spend the precious time with my loved ones.

3) Well, I was living in London in 2018 and I held a small New Year party with three friends in my small flat. My friends and I were good at cooking, so we spent hours in the kitchen, making an extravagant feast for us. Since it was the first time that I had celebrated the new year in an exotic country, those memories are still fresh until now.
