Question 1:

Question 2:
Fill in the blank with an animal: A New Year's day tradition is the __ plunge, where participants wade into a body of water despite low temperatures and icy conditions.
Perhaps the largest polar bear plunge is the Nieuwjaarsduik, or "New Year's Dive," in the Netherlands seaside town of Scheveningen. It is estimated that more than 10,000 people participate.
Question 3:
In Roman times, New Year's Day was dedicated to this god of beginnings, gates, transitions and time. He is often depicted with two faces.
The month of January is also named for Janus.
Question 4:
This dish, made with black-eyed peas, rice and pork, is traditionally eaten in the southern United States on New Year's Day.
One possible etymology is that the name is a corruption of the Haitian Creole term for black-eyed peas: pwa pijon. The peas are symbolic of pennies or coins, and are believed to bring good fortune and prosperity.
Question 5:
How many times are bells struck at midnight on December 31 in the Japanese Buddhist tradition known as Joya no Kane (midnight bell)?
