The Chinese Lantern Festival ended a few days ago, marking the last day of the Chinese Spring Festival or the lunar New Year celebration. However this year's celebration became a hot topic in the world. People in many countries were discussing whether this year is the Year of the Ram, of the Goat, or of the Sheep. Several New Yorkers expressed their point of view on this interesting subject. They also expressed their views on the Chinese Spring Festival celebration here in America and the differences between the Festival and the Christmas in the States, as well as their knowledge of the Chinese New Year.
