冬 至
冬至，俗称"冬节"，在古代是很隆重的节 日。在二十四节气中，冬至也最受重视。 古人认为到了冬至，虽然还处在寒冷的季节， 但春天已经不远了。这时外出的人都要回家 过冬节，表示年终有所归宿。闽台民间认为 每年冬至是全家人团聚的节日，因为这一天 要祭拜祖先，如果外出不回家，就是不认祖 宗的人。 冬至这一天是一年中最长的一夜，许多人家 利用这一夜，用糯米粉做"冬至圆"，为了区 别于后来的春节前夕的"辞岁"，冬节的前一 日叫做"添岁"或"亚岁"，表示"年"还没过完， 但大家都已经长了一岁。
随着时间的推移，元宵节的活动越来越多，不少地方节庆时增加了耍龙灯、 耍狮子、踩高跷、划旱船扭秧歌、打太平鼓等活动。
八月十五日是秋天的正中，所以被称为中 秋或仲秋。八月十五的月亮比其他几个月 的满月还要圆，要明亮，所以又叫做“月 夕”，“八月节”。中秋前夕，人们都尽 可能和家人团聚，取人月双圆的意义，八 月十五又叫“团圆节” 中秋传说： 中秋传说之一 —— 嫦娥奔月 中秋传说之二 —— 吴刚折桂 中秋传说之三 —— 朱元璋与月饼起义

按照基督教的习惯，每年的11月1 日为万圣节，是纪念所有圣徒的日子。 万圣节前夕便是万圣节的前一天，即10月31日。在中世纪的英格兰，万圣节被 叫做 All Hallow ，大家知道，“前夕”的英语是eve , 所以万圣节前夕便由 Halloween + eve 演变成 Halloween 。
Customer习俗
按照习俗，过圣诞节时人们都互赠圣诞贺卡和圣诞礼品。贺卡可以 在商店买到，也可以自制，只要写上一句祝词，写上自己的姓名就行了。 赠贺卡一般要根据对方的年兴趣爱好以及与自己的关系等。不仅同事、 同学、朋友之间互赠，家庭成员之间也有互赠贺卡和礼品的习惯。这是 一种最普通的庆祝圣诞节的活动。 圣诞餐是圣诞节当天的主餐，有的家庭把它安排在中餐，有的把它安排 在晚餐。这餐饭主要是家人聚餐，一般不邀请客人。圣诞餐主要食品为： 火鸡（turkey）或烤鹅（roast goose）、布丁（puddings）以及各类 小甜饼（如golden butter cookies，fruit cookies）等。 按照习俗，吃圣诞餐时，往往要多设一个座位，多放一份餐具， 据说 这是为了“主的使者”预备的，也有的说是为一个需要帮助的过路人而 准备的。 在圣诞夜（12月24日晚至25日晨），基督教徒们组织歌咏队到各 教徒家去唱圣诞颂歌，传报佳音。据说，这是模仿天使在基督降生的那 天夜里，在伯利恒郊外向牧羊人报告基督降生的喜讯。颂歌很多，比如 《平安夜》、《铃儿响叮当》、《小伯利恒》、《东方三贤士》等，内 容大都与耶酥的诞生有关。

Something about western families
Western families advocate equality in daily life. The husband and the wife usually have an equality voice in decision-making, and on certain matters, the children, too, have a vote. In the western, most old people do not live with their children or relatives. If they have enough money they will buy house or apartments in places where other old people live .If they do not healthy and strong enough to live alone, they would rather live in nursing houses for old people than be taken by their children. Therefore they want to stay young because youth stands for hope and energy, they do not like to grow old because they will not gain honor, respect or attention as old people .
2..Addressing
In China, the surname comes first and then the given name. While westerners names are written and spoken with the given name first and the family name last.
