The above has said that there are many traditions for such a significant festival.Yes, it is. From the 23nd December to the end of this month, we get different tasks for each day to prepare for Spring Festival, and I will introduce them in detail.

On the 23nd December, we eat sesame candies. This is a kind of belief in old days, but the tradition has been preserved. It is said that on that day, the fairy couple, who are responsible for protecting our kitchen, will go to heaven to pay a formal visit to the Jade Emperor. We hope they could say something sweet to the Jade Emperor, so that he will bless us. We believe that candies can make their mouths sweet, so we usually consecrate sesame candies to the couple. Only after the consecration can we eat the candies. However, not all families now consecrate the fairy couple, but the tradition of eating sesame candies on the 23nd December is observed.

Onthe24th December,wecleanourhouse.ForwelcomingtheNewYear,everything should be clean and clear.Almost all family members on that day will participate in the cleaning. It may dirty, but we all enjoy the work, because it’s worth happy to work with dear family members and finally, everything is clean.

On the 25th December, we prepare meat. Meat is a must in Spring Festival no matter in old days or nowadays. Generally, we buy pork, beef, mutton, chicken, duck, fish, etc. However, some families choose to butcher them by themselves, and the festival atmosphere will be stronger.These meat are boiled or fried and are waiting to be cooked during the holiday. In addition to meat, there are also fried meatballs, vegetableballs, as well as sweet potato balls. I love this day very much, for I love eating these fried balls.

On the 26th December, we prepare steamed buns. They are not just for one day of a family, but for the whole holiday and including other relatives who will come to visit us during the holiday. Thus, it’s a large quantity. Except for steamed bun with vegetable stuffing,meatstuffingandsweetredbeanstuffing,wemakeakindofbunswithjujubes, which looks like sunflowers and are used for consecration.

On the 27th December, we go to shopping mall to purchase new clothes and other stuff.Nowadays,SpringFestivalisincreasinglybecomingaspendingholiday.Shopping malls and markets are more crowded than usual. Even so, we still happy, because it is Spring Festival. In old days, we were too poor to buy new clothes in ordinary life. Nevertheless, since Spring Festival is the first day of a year, and everything new means a good start of one year, we got new clothes only in Spring Festival. Although now we can wear new clothes casually, the tradition and the belief have been reserved.

Onthe28th December,wepasteSpringFestivalcoupletsandpictures.Somefamilies also hang red lanterns and Chinese knots. Since red in China stands for auspiciousness and propitiousness, Spring Festival is also a festival that is surrounded by red color. The couplets contain the nice wishes for the coming New Year, and the pictures are usually ancient celebrated heroes, whom we believe can protect our families and bring us blessing.

Onthe29th December,wepreparealcohol,whichisaswellamustinSpringFestival. We always believe that alcohol can help us deepen our relationships. During Spring Festival, there must be many gatherings, and alcohol is indispensable. Consequently, the probability of traffic accident is getting higher. Spring Festival is auspicious, while accidents are ominous. Thus, remember, no driving after drinking!

Here comes the last day of the year – the 30th December, which we call New Year’s Eve.ThemostimportanttwothingsonthisdayarereuniondinnerandtheannualSpring Festival Gala. For reunion dinner, jiaozi is indispensable, which is also the symbol of auspiciousness and propitiousness. The Spring Festival Gala is the largest-scale gala organized by CCTV. It has accompanied us for 32 nights. Wherever we are, we will watch it. It is just like a link, linking us with our dear families, making us feel warm and happy.

Yet, in lunar calendar, December has only 29 days in some years, and then the 29th December is the New Year’s Eve.

Well,theabovearethetraditionsofourSpringFestival,buttheorderisnotobserved strictly,exceptthe23nd December.Themostinterestingandexcitingtimesinmyopinion is the preparation time for New Year.And now you have known this, are you willing to experience it yourselves?

MIDDLE EAST

AlekD.Epstein.AndreiGromykoandSoviet-IsraeliDiplomacyintheAbsenceofDiplomatic

Relations, 1967–1985

347

Today, the Russian Federation and the State of Israel maintain solid and stable diplomatic relations. However, things have not always been like this: during the Soviet era, the USSR and Israel broke diplomatic ties twice, and while in 1953 this only lasted for a couple of months, after 1967 it took almost a quarter of a century to reestablish their relations. There are a lot of sources available to researchers regarding the Soviet-Israeli relations in 1948–1967, but there does not exist a single comprehensive piece of research dedicated to their bilateral communication in the absence diplomatic ties, and there is no collection of relevant documents either. The aim of the present article is to partially fill this gap. The story and its analysis revolves around the personality ofAndrei Gromyko (1909–1989), who served as the head of Russian diplomacy for three decades. The article is based on documents and memoirs, mostly translated from Hebrew and found in archives, that have never been used in research before. The analysis shows that at different times, A.A. Gromyko’s attitude towards the Jewish state varied dramatically, and his views cannot be presented from a single perspective. A.A. Gromyko was an outstanding expert onbilateralrelationsintheglobalcontext,whichmadeitpossibleforthetwocountriestosustain a mutually acceptable political dialog even in the absence of official diplomatic ties.

Key words: Middle East, USSR and the Arab-Israeli conflict, Cold War, Soviet-Israeli relations.

Agapov M. G. Andrei Andreyevich Gromyko – the Person, «Whose Name Every Israeli School-child Knows»

The article deals with the phenomenon of popularity of A.A. Gromyko in Israel in the late 1940s. In the discussion of the Palestine question in the United Nations in 1947–48s the Soviet Union encouraged the establishment of an independent Jewish state in the Middle East. As the Permanent Representative of the Soviet Union, A.A. Gromyko gained in renown as a staunch defender of the Jewish people. He turned into the symbol of the Soviet support to young Jewish state for first Israeli generation.At that time A.A. Gromyko perhaps was the most popular foreign political figure in Israel.

Key words: Soviet Middle East policy, the Palestine question, A.A. Gromyko, United Nations (UN), Israel.

Rumyantsev V. P. The Problem of the Palestinian Refugees in the Policy Administration JF Kennedy (1961–1962)

This paper researches the position of the administration of John F. Kennedy towards the problem of the Palestinian refugees. In early of 1960s the United States attempted to develop a plan of the solution of this problem. The idea of resettlement of Palestinian refugees inArab and non-Arab countries that were prepared to accept these refugees, constituted the basis of the socalled “Johnson’s plan”. Counting on reciprocity fromTelAviv, the United States offered guided missiles “Hawk” to Israel. When Israel received the desired missiles, the government of David Ben-Gurion, however, did everything possible to failure the “Johnson’s plan”.

Kew words: the United States, Israel, Palestinian refugees, John F. Kennedy, David Ben-Gurion.
