    【解析】短文描述了世界各地人们过新年的情景。虽然庆祝的时间不定相同、方式各异，但它是家庭团圆的节日，是辞旧迎新之时，也是为新的一年做计划的时候。

    1.根据句意，并不是所有国家用同种方式庆祝新的一年，有些国家新年还不在同一日期开始。 连词and连接两个并列句，后句中所缺的词要与前一句中的the same 相呼应。

    2.句意是：人们在等待新年的时候，还做着其他的事情。这是一个时间状语从句，

    后面动词是延续性的，用连词while。

    3.迎接新年时，人们在最后几秒钟倒着数数，count down from 10 to 1。

    4.在同一秒时间，众人齐呼，喊声应该很大，而且欢快，loudly最佳。

    5.根据句意，好天气的时候，一家人出门做的最可能是walk。go out for a walk意思是“去散步”。

    6.此处意思是：把下决心的清单写下来。write down意思是“写下来、记下来”。

    7.句中有than，是比较级，用hard的比较级形式。

    8.此句的主语是they，后面的形容词性物主代词应该用their，与之匹配。

    9.此处是向家人和朋友作出承诺。通过上下文可知，是怎样追随所下的决心。

    10.本句运用了此结构，“It is a time (for) sb to do sth”，其中for sb前置。
