Christmas is one of the most beautiful holidays of all time. It is the day when God's son was born on earth. Hence, this day is sacred for all Christians around the world. The Christmas season gives rise to a number of Christmas traditions that come along. Here are a few of them that are celebrated with zest and enthusia* worldwide for centuries.
Preparation of the Christmas cake:
This was an English tradition which started centuries ago. On Christmas eve, plum porridge was served to the people. As years passed, various other things like dry fruits, honey and spices were used. Soon this porridge got replaced with the Christmas cake. Christmas cakes are made using eggs, butter, confections, fruits, etc. Today a Christmas cake is an integral part of a Christmas menu.
Sending gifts to loved ones:
This tradition comes from the story of the three wise men who got gifts for baby Jesus on Christmas. Every Christmas, gifts are exchanged among loved ones, especially children. The story of Santa Claus also comes from this tradition.
Decorating the Christmas tree:
This refers to the tradition of decorating a pine tree using lights, tinsels, garlands, ornaments, candy canes, etc. Today, a Christmas tree is an indispensable part of Christmas celebration.
Lighting up the Christmas candle:
This refers to the tradition of placing a lighted candle outside houses during the Christmas season. A candle signifies hope as it brings light even to the darkest room. In the earlier times, when Christians were persecuted, they were not allowed to practice prayers. Hence, a single candle used to be placed outside the house as a sign that Christian prayers were being conducted inside.
Singing Christmas carols:
It refers to the age-old custom of enchanting a number of traditional Christmas songs during the Christmas season. It adds to the joy and fun to the atmosphere. Different Christmas hymns or carols like The First Noel, Jingle Bells, Joy to the world, etc are sung every Christmas as a part of the Christmas celebration.
Making of Cribs:
This is yet another age-old tradition of Christmas. A crib refers to the Nativity Scene that is prepared using *all statues. The first crib ever was made outside a church of St. Francis of Assisi for children to show them how the Nativity scene was like. Since then, this tradition became very popular.
Distributing Christmas candies:
This is one of the most wonderful traditions of all. Christmas candies are distributed to neighbors during the Yuletide season. On the day of Christmas, all misunderstandings and grudges are forgotten and the community comes together to celebrate the birth of Christ.
These traditions have been carried out for decades, yet they are celebrated with more and more exuberance each year. The level of excitement has never gone down. It just keeps getting better and better with time.

昨天上午刚考完,第一件事就是回家睡大觉,晚上再出来狂玩。
我是9:40考的,结果提前一个小时就到了。其实也差不多了,因为我是的第三个考的。本来前一天笔试的时候报到迟到了,而且照片不合要求,那个女考官要我第二天口试时再给她,结果好像给她不好的印象,心里一直在想呆会见面了该怎么道歉。呵呵,结果开门叫我进去的竟然是个男考官,不是昨天那个,吓了我一跳。(早知道这样起床时就稍微打扮一下了,呵呵,而且最后补交的照片还是没用到)
进去前的一秒钟还很紧张,谁知道一进去了,跟他开始闲聊了两句,居然一下子轻松了很多,感觉完全没有原来的那么难。而且那个考官的口音是标准的英音,很容易听懂,有几道题甚至他自己还没说完,我已经知道他想问什么了,给了我多一点点的时间思考。自己感觉好像时间过得很快,但等我的朋友却说:怎么这么久?
不说废话了。
题目如下:
part 1
full name
where are you come from?(感觉如果你家离杭州比较远,他一般都会问你的家乡如何)
describe your home town
is there anything you don't like in your hometome?
some famous food in your hometome
is there any food you don't like?
where do you usually eat?
describe an animal in china
how do people usually use the animal?
part 2
a park/garden
最讨厌的topic,居然真的考到了,不过好像也不知道怎么的被我说够了时间
part 3
how often do you go to the park?
how important do you think the parks are?
should we reserve the natural scenery or pay money to build more amusement park?
还有的就忘了,呵呵
希望对大家有用。
