Unit 2 Festivals and holidays
1 Read the passage and answer the questions.
Different people celebrate the New Year in different ways. Here are some special and fun New Year’s traditions from around the world.
China
On Chinese New Year's Day, the whole family gets together for a reunion dinner. The elders give the children lucky money, wishing them safety and health.
现在分词短语作伴随状语，表示长辈给孩子们压岁钱的同时，
“祝愿他们平安健康”。
Thailand
Thai people call their new year Songkran. It is on the 13th of April. This is one of the hottest months in Thailand! People celebrate the New Year with street parties and even giant water fights.
Spain
When the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve, the Spanish eat 12 grapes, one for each month of the year.
one of + 可数名词复数 ……之一
v. 敲；鸣；报时
Eating all 12 grapes is believed to bring good luck.
长难句分析：这是一个简单句。动名词短语Eating all 12 grapes 作主语，谓语为is believed, 是被动语态，to bring good luck表示“带来好运”这一结果。
Ecuador
Some people walk around the block with an empty suitcase on New Year's Eve. This shows that the next year will be full of adventures.
思考：If you have the chance to experience it, which New Year celebration would you prefer Why
I would prefer the Spanish celebration. Eating 12 grapes for good luck at midnight sounds fun and meaningful. And I think it’s a sweet way to welcome the New Year. （答案不唯一）

分析结构 本句是一个倒装句，用于强调或突出句子的内容。本句中，谓语are 被放在了主语some special and fun New Year’s traditions 之前用于强调；from around the world 是对主语的修饰或补充，说明了这些新年传统的来源。
· Here comes the bus. 公交车来了。
· Here is the book you asked for. 这是你要的书。
· There lies the problem. 问题就在这里。

公园前面矗立着一座高楼。

句型结构：倒装结构+ 主语+ 介词短语。
在以here、there、out、in、down、away 等表示方位的副词开头的句子中，当主语是名词时要用倒装，谓语动词的形式由位于倒装句句尾的主语决定。如果主语是代词，则不用倒装。
