1. Holiday

   A holiday is a day set aside by custom or by law in which normal activities, especially business or work, are to be suspended or reduced. Generally holidays are intended to allow individuals to celebrate or commemorate something of cultural or religious significance. Holidays may be designated by governments, religious institutions, or other groups or organizations. The degree to which normal activities are reduced by a holiday may depend on local laws, customs, or even personal choices.
   The concept of holidays has most often originated as religious observances. The intention of a holiday was typically to allow individuals to tend to religious duties associated with important dates on the calendar. In most modern societies, however, holidays serve as much of a recreational function as anything else.
   In many societies there are important distinctions between holidays designated by governments and holidays designated by religious institutions. In many predominantly Christian nations, for example, government-designed holidays may center around Christian holidays though non-Christians may instead observe religious holidays associated with their faith. In some cases, a holiday may only be nominally observed. For example, many Jews in the Americas and Europe treat the relatively minor Jewish holiday of Chanukah as a working holiday, changing very little of their daily routines for this day.

Праздники и празднования в Британии
Часть 1
Кто не любит праздники? Праздники обычно означают не ходить в школу или на работу, они также означают хорошую еду, подарки и массу удовольствия.
Британцы тоже их любят.
Новый год начинается первого января. Время праздновать и начинать все сначала. Люди желают своим семьям и друзьям счастливого Нового года и отправляют специальные поздравительные открытки. В канун Нового года многие люди ходят на вечеринки со своими семьями, соседями и друзьями. Они ложатся спать после полуночи, чтобы «заглянуть в Новый год» в 12 часов. В Лондоне люди приходят на Трафальгарскую площадь праздновать. Оттуда они слышат Биг Бен, большие часы на Здании Парламента. Когда бьет Биг Бен, все они обнимаются, целуют своих друзей и кричат: «С Новым годом!». 1 января − выходной день в Великобритании и США. Для пожилых людей это день, который можно провести дома перед телевизором. Но молодые люди выходят и встречают своих друзей на вечеринках и в разных клубах.
В день Святого Валентина люди посылают специальные поздравительные открытки (Валентинки) тем, кого они любят. Это традиция не указывать имя отправителя. Некоторые люди покупают подарки для тех, кого любят, или дарят им красные розы, символ любви.
