Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some way. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways， and at different times on the calendar.

In Western countries， people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st-January 1st. People may go to parties， sometimes dressed in formal （正式的） clothes， and they may drink champagne （香檳） at midnight. During the first minutes of the new year， people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by waking up early to watch the sun rise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.

Many cultures also do special things to get rid of （擺脫） bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example， in Ecuador， families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight， these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh （重新）. Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean， or saying special things on the first day of the new year.

Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Years Day. The more grapes a person eats， the more good luck the person will have in the year. In France， people eat pancakes for good luck at New Year. In the United States， some people eat black-eyed peas for good luck—but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them！

A new camera made by a company named Netatmo has facial recognition software （識別系統(tǒng)） that can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school， or that a package has been taken to their home. It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home.

Janina Mattausch is a product marketing manager for Netatmo.

“The common security （安全） cameras at present are not that smart. So， they can tell you if something is moving but they dont necessarily know if its a human being or， ah， if its your kid—they dont know the difference， so they will warn you all the time.”

When family members enter a home，the new camera “recognizes （識別 ）” them and sends information to the owners smartphone. The owner can choose to see the video then or later. But if an unknown person enters a home， the camera will send the owner a warning that will cause an alarm to sound on the owners smartphone.

That is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Damien. He lives in Paris.

“On a Friday I was at work， attending a big monthly meeting when my phone warned. At first I told myself， ‘Oh， it must be a mistake. Maybe I have to set the system again. But the notice on my phone was telling me that there was a movement in my flat and also a face that the software did not recognize.”

He watched the video and was very surprised by what he saw.

“I saw a person I did not know with his shoes on. I was watching it live on video. So I felt totally unbelievable， frozen. I asked a workmate to take me back home as fast as possible and I called the police on the way. ”

With the help of the video， the police found the intruder later that day.

A 17 year old Tibetan boy climbs 40 meters up a tall tree only to get some honey as an ingredient for a traditional local drink. The money he makes from selling the honey will be used to pay for his younger brothers tuition fee （學費）.

This is only a scene from the first episode （集） of CCTVs new documentary， A Bite of China 2， which appeared on April 18， 2014. But there are enough reasons for viewers to spend an hour every Friday until June 6 enjoying in front of their television sets. Viewers have had to wait a long time since A Bite of China first came out in 2012.

Back then， the seven-episode documentary was considered the best one ever produced by CCTV， with its good effects and rich food culture. A famous foreigner praised it， saying， “Its the best TV show Ive ever seen about food. Im sure its the best one ever made.”

The new season includes eight episodes， covering 300 types of food. According to CCTV， every minute of the show was edited （編輯） out of 150 minutes of footage （連續(xù)鏡頭）. Finding their subjects was often the hardest part of the film teams job. It took them six months to film a beekeeping couple， which included a journey of more than 2， 000 kilometers.

Food is a personal thing， in that no dish suits all tastes. However， the program has still managed to move all sorts of viewers.

“Compared with A Bite of China， the new season has a more human touch， which makes viewers cover some tears while their mouths are watering，” said Sina Entertainment.

As always， the people are the most interesting part. A Bite of China 2 shows a greater dream—through home-made food， it tells the joys and sorrows of common Chinese in changing times， according to director Chen Xiaoqing of the documentary series.

“I was moved by the people in each simple story，” said Li Weifang， 17， of Beijing No. 3 High School. “Their work helps enrich （豐富） Chinas food culture.”

“In fact， that is exactly what the new season hopes to deliver. Through the program， the listeners will see the characteristics of the Chinese people： Saving and tenacity （堅韌），” Chen told Xinhua.
