There are a lot of interesting customs in the west, and there are a lot of differences from country to country.
In China the spring Festival is a family get-together. And so is Christmas in many western countries. But New Year for some families is a time to get together with their friends, too. Most people often have parties to welcome New Year. At these parties, there are all kinds of food and drink, and people often sing and dance until the time nears for the coming of New Year.
On New Year Eve when midnight comes, people often say “Happy New Year” to each other. Champagne (香槟酒) is a favorite drink for New Year. In many western countries frieworks(烟火)are let off at midnight, and many people like to make a noise, maybe they want to drive away bad spirits(幽灵).

Chicago is the third most populous(人口众多的) city in the US, with a population of about 2,700,000. Its other famous name is "The Windy City". It is for a good reason. The city lies right next to Lake Michigan and heavy winds blow through the city.
Chicago is famous for its art and culture (文化). In order to know the art and culture, you must pay a visit to the Art College of Chicago. It is not only a school, but also a world- class art museum. If you don't want to visit a museum, you can take some special photos. Then your best choice is to take photos at the Cloud Gate. Chicago has lots of fun things to do. If you enjoy heights, visit the famous Willis Tower! You can go up to the top of it and walk onto a glass box. You'll be standing over the city, but don't worry— It's completely safe. Doesn't Chicago sound like a fun city?
