[00:00.00]Exercise 2.2
[00:08.87]So tell me more about your New Year.
[00:12.02]Well, on the day before New Year's Day ...
[00:15.48]You mean New Year's Eve 1?
[00:17.20]Yes, on New Year's Eve,
[00:19.19]in the evening,
[00:20.58]we always have a big meal 2 with all the family.
[00:24.23]It is a very special meal.
[00:26.61]Do you always eat at home?
[00:28.71]Yes, always.
[00:30.51]We never go out for our New Year's meal.
[00:34.08]And what do you eat at this meal?
[00:36.35]Oh, we eat many different things.
[00:39.44]We usually have some soup
[00:41.81]and we always have some dumplings 3
[00:44.22]that have a little coin 4 hidden 5 inside 6.
[00:47.36]This is a special tradition 7 for New Year.
[00:51.26]I see.
[00:52.54]And we usually eat meatballs and chicken
[00:55.87]and fish.
[00:57.16]You know,
[00:58.53]there is also a tradition about the fish.
[01:01.26]Really?
[01:02.51]Yes. You see, the Chinese word of "fish"
[01:06.83]sounds like the word that means 8 "extra food".
[01:10.14]I see.
[01:11.20]And so at the New Year's dinner,
[01:14.37]families often put some fish
[01:16.45]in the middle of the table-
[01:18.33]but they usually don't eat it!
[01:20.54]No?
[01:21.92]No.They leave the fish and this means that
[01:25.65]there are always some food left over
[01:28.13]during the year to come.
[01:30.46]I see. That's a nice idea.
[01:33.24]And what else do you eat?
[01:34.94]We eat special food called "Nian Gao".
[01:37.93]It's delicious 9!
