Although New Year's Eve involves drinking alcohol for many people, New Year's Day signals the start of a healthier life, as some people make New Year's resolutions. Often these are connected with fitness and health, for example giving up smoking or drinking, taking more exercise or losing weight.
虽然新年除夕对许多人来说还包括去喝酒，但由于一些人会许‘新年愿望'，许的愿望经常和健康有关，例如戒烟，戒酒，多运动，或是减肥。所以新年第一天却标志这一个更加健康的开始。

Other people make a resolution to improve their life in other ways, such as spending more time with family, learning something new, or getting out of debt.
另一些人决定从另外的途径改善他们的生活，例如多陪陪家人，学习新知识，或还清债务。

Unfortunately, it's not always easy to stick to your resolutions, especially if they are related to saving money. The January sales can provide shopaholics with far too much temptation.
可是，要坚持自己的做出的决定通常不那么容易，尤其如果是和储蓄有关的决定。一月份的购物对一些购物狂来说简直具有太大的诱惑了。

Almost every shop is full of special offers and bargains,which can make it hard to just go window shopping.
几乎每家商店都有特价，打折活动，这使得要做到光看不买的去逛商店变得太难了。
