New Year`s Eve in Tines Square
You may have seen this on television. (41) … the chilly winter weather, thousands of people head for Times Square in New York City on the evening of December 31. They stand for hours in the cold night air watching the clock. The crowd grows larger as the hours tick by. People walk around distributing balloons, flags, and confetti. Soon music begins playing, and everyone sings along. Midnight approaches,

Happy New Year! Thousands of voices cheer as the ball reaches the bottom of the pole and fireworks light up the sky. People hug and kiss each other and wave at the TV cameras. Confetti and balloons fill the air.
The New Year`s (43) in Times Square is an old tradition. The first one occurred in 1904.
Nowadays, TV has also become part of the tradition. Many families across the United States gather in their living rooms to watch the lighted ball descend the flagpole at midnight. The first New Year`s ball was
lowered down a flagpole in 1907. That ball was (44) iron and wood and weighed over 300 kilos. It
was decorated with 100 light bulbs. The ball that is used now is covered with glass, mirrors, and hundreds
of colored lights. It sparkles and shines spectacularly as it goes down the pole to (45) the New Year.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, 8, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the questions from 46 to 50.
BODY LANGUAGE
Sometimes people add to what they say, even when they don`t talk. Gestures are the "silent language" of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood. In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction`. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand oil the other`s arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.
Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly.. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, ".Pardon me." or "Excuse me." Americans like to look the other person in the eyes when they are talking-.` If you don`t do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you are staring at someone, it is not polite. For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger. Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them. Learning a culture`s body language is sometimes confusing. If you don`t know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.
