ответ:1. The first documentary evidence of the tradition of decorating a Christmas tree dates back to the beginning of the 17th century. According to historians, the first trees decorated in honor of Christmas appeared in Alsace (then it was part of Germany, now France). For felled firs, pines and beeches, festive decorations were colored paper roses, apples, cookies, sugar cubes and tinsel.
Первые документальные свидетельства о традиции наряжать елку относятся к началу XVII века. Как утверждают историки, первые наряженные в честь Рождества деревья появились в Эльзасе (тогда это была часть Германии, в настоящее время – Франция). Для срубленных елей, сосен и буков праздничными украшениями служили розы из цветной бумаги, яблоки, печенье, кусочки сахара и мишура.
New Year’s in Russia is celebrated on December 31 and it is probably the most exciting holiday of the year. Russian New Year’s traditions are quite specific and differ from most of the world because in our country New Years is more popular than Christmas. Christmas, on the other hand, is celebrated on January 7, not on the 25th of December. Russian Orthodox Church uses the 'Julian' calendar for religious celebration days, which is why the date is different.In our country, New Year is a public holiday, during which most companies and offices are closed. Also, every city has special New Year’s celebratory events - concerts for kids, performances, different holiday fairs. The streets are decorated with fir trees and lights.

here's a short one, hope this helps:
my favorite singer is cesaria evora. she was born in 1941 in cape verde, a small country located off the coast of africa. her career really took off after she recorded her first album, "la diva aux pied nus" in the 80s. she quickly became the grand dame of mornas, a specific creole genre of music and dancing. her voice is easily recognizable, her appearance is memorable. cesaria, while singing in the native language of her little island-nation is beloved around the world. she has a marvelous stage presence, often dancing barefoot, smoking between the songs, and chit chatting with her musicians.
ms. evora recorded 9 disks, her latest one in 2009. she has stopped touring lately, after she suffered from a heartattack.
