13. Christmas Traditions 圣诞节传统 [00:02.38]There are many ways to celebrate Christmas, [00:06.68]and some British people like to go on holiday, [00:09.92]go out for lunch to a restaurant, [00:12.15]or spend the day with friends. [00:14.68]But most people's idea of a traditional Christmas [00:18.47]involves spending a few days with their family [00:21.87]- sometimes their extended family. [00:24.45]The day is the most exciting for the children. [00:28.30]They may have spent weeks or even months [00:31.48]dreaming of the presents they want most. [00:34.22]Since the beginning of December, [00:36.55]they may have opened their advent calendars, [00:39.49]finding a new festive picture, chocolate, or small gift, [00:44.09]to count down each day until 25th December. [00:47.58]On Christmas Eve, they hang up stockings, [00:51.43]ready to be filled with presents by Santa Claus. [00:54.71]Often a thank you gift of a mince pie [00:58.66]and a glass of sherry will be left, [01:00.78]as well as a carrot for those hungry reindeer. [01:04.14]
