原文及翻译

On New Year's Day, people start a New Year. Many people make resolutions. They resolve to be better people. Some people decide that they will lose weight, so that they can be healthier. Some people decide to give up smoking. They also want to be healthier. 

元旦那天，人们开始新的一年。许多人都会立下新年决心。他们决心要成为更好的人。有些人决定减肥，这样他们才能更健康。有些人决定戒烟。他们也想变得更健康。

There are all kinds of resolutions that people make. Some people try not to lose their tempers. Some people say that they will work harder. There are people who try to give up bad habits every year. My brother says that he will stop biting his nails. He stops biting his nails in January, but by February he always starts again. 

人们会立下各种各样的决心。有些人试图不发脾气。有些人说他们会更加努力。有些人每年都试图戒掉坏习惯。我哥哥说他会停止咬指甲。他在一月份停止咬指甲，但到了二月份他总是会重新开始。

That is the thing about New Year's resolutions. People seldom keep them. Everybody starts out with good intentions, but it is very hard to stick with them. I don't make New Year's resolutions. I find that I just break them. I just work day by day to break my bad habits. I know that I eat too many sweets every day. I just try to resist them. 

这就是新年决心的问题所在。人们很少能坚持下去。每个人一开始都怀有良好的意愿，但很难坚持下去。我不立新年决心。我发现我只是打破了它们。我只是日复一日地努力戒掉我的坏习惯。我知道我每天吃太多糖果。我只是试着抵制它们。

I think that every day is a new day, regardless of whether it is New Year's Day or not. Bad habits are hard to break. The best thing is never to start any bad habits. I don't know if my brother will ever stop biting his nails, but I know that each January he intends to stop. Maybe one of these New Year's Days, he'll get over that habit.

我认为每一天都是新的一天，无论是否是新年。坏习惯很难改掉。最好的办法就是永远不要养成坏习惯。我不知道我弟弟是否会停止咬指甲，但我知道每年一月他都打算停止。也许在某一年的新年，他会改掉这个习惯。
