Good morning, everyone.My name is XXX.Today, I’d like to talk about the Christmas Day.
What we can do on the Christmas Day?
Christmas is a holiday celebrated every year on December 25.
As we know Christmas is a Christian holiday.But Christmas is also a social and family holiday.It is a festival of goodwill, a time for family, friends, food, and gift-giving.During the Christmas season friends get together and go from house to house singing Christmas songs.They do this for fun and to bring the spirit of Christmas to the people in each house.Then on Christmas Eve-the night before Christmas Day-children put stockings at the end their beds before they go to sleep.Their parents usually tell them that Father Christmas will come during the night.Some people even put up stockings for their pets as well.
Christmas Day always begins before breakfast.Children wake up very early, and can’t wait to open the presents in their stockings and under the tree.They wake up the other family members, calling,”Merry Christmas!” After all the presents are opened, the family will usually have a delicious breakfast.They spend the day playing with the new toys and visiting their
relatives and friends.They greet each other with a hug and say, “Merry Christmas!”
The origin of Christmas Day
Do you know why we celebrate the Christmas Day? Once upon a time, a man told people of the coming of a boy.He said that this boy would save his people.Every year, parents would tell their children about the boy who would save his people.They were waiting for the boy, but he didn’t come.Finally, years later, the boy’s story began.
There was a man named Joseph and his wife named Mary.It’s said that one night an angel came to Mary and told her she was to have this special boy.The angel also came to Joseph and told him the same thing.
At that time, everyone had to go back to their own hometown to be counted.Mary and Joseph had to travel before the baby was born.It was a long journey.They didn’t arrive until very late one night.They looked for a place to stay, but all the places were full.They didn’t know where to go.At last, the owner of a house said they could stay in the barn.That night Mary gave birth to this very special boy.
Soon after the baby was born, angels appeared to some shepherds in a field near the town.They said they had
something to tell them.The special boy had been born.The shepherds went to see the special boy that same night.They asked Mary and Joseph what to call the boy.Joseph said the name of the boy was Jesus.
People called him Jesus Christ because Christ means to save.Years later, people still celebrate Jesus’ birthday.They call it Christmas, which comes from the name Christ.
The different Christmas customs in different country
The Ornamental of Christmas
Westerners use red; green; white these three colors for the Christmas colors.When Christmas comes each household will be used to decorate the Christmas colors.Christmas flowers and Christmas candles are red.Green is the Christmas tree.It is one of the main Christmas ornaments.And the tree is made by redwood or cypre tree which is pyramid and evergreen.The tree is decorated with colorful lanterns, gifts and paper flowers.It also lights the Christmas candles.
Exist side by side is the red and white Santa Claus.He is the most popular Christmas activity characters.
Western children go to bed on Christmas Eve prior to the fireplace or put a pillow next to the socks, waiting for Santa Claus to fall asleep after they put on the socks in a gift.In
the West, to play Santa Claus is also a custom.
The Food of Christmas
Christmas is also Europe and the United States who focus on the family sat around the Christmas tree, the festive meal together.
The custom of eating turkey Christmas dinner began in 1620.This custom is popularly in the U.S.But the British Christmas dinner is roast goose, not turkey.Austrian Italian people like to droves to the restaurant to eat a big meal with their families on Christmas Eve.The Christmas dinner has many foods like turkeys, wax chicken, leg of pork meat and schnitzel.When they eat dinner they also drink wine.They all have a good time at that time.
Who is the Father Christmas?
Every year the parents will tell the children Father Christmas will come in the night and give them the Christmas gifts.And the children all believe it.But in fact the gifts are given by their parents.
Father Christmas is a very kind-hearted man.He lands on top of each house all over the world and climbs down the chimney.He then fills the stockings with Christmas presents.But who is Father Christmas? Can a man really climb down the
chimney of every house in the world in a single night? Of course not.
Father Christmas is based on a real person in history.In Turkey, there once was a man named Saint Nicholas.He was a very shy person.He wanted to give money to the poor.But he did not want them to know that the money came from him.He didn’t know what to do.It is said that one day he climbed to the top of a house and dropped some money down a chimney.It went into a stocking that a little girl had hung by the fireplace to dry! Even though Father Christmas is no longer living, his spirit of generosity lives on today.
Think of Christmas Day.
Christmas Day is one of the most popular festivals.It is not only celebrated in western countries.In many Asian countries, such as India, Japan and Korea, which are made this their international festival.Our Chinese also celebrates this holiday.
On Christmas Eve we will send apples as a gift to each other.The apples mean safety.And in the Christmas Day we also make many difference ways to celebrate it.For example we will make some programs as singing and dancing in the cla meeting.
At the same time some of our traditional festival is forgot by us.In my opinion, I think as we celebrate Christmas Day we should not forget our traditional festival.And the government also notes this.During these days the government should take some measures to make us celebrate the traditional festivals.
That borings us to the end of our presentation
Thank you for your listening.
