Hi Teenmag,
On Christmas Eve in England, we usually a)............... carols with my friends outside people’s houses. We always have a Christmas tree in the house. My brother and I b)............... the tree a month before Christmas. Some children c)............... a letter to Santa asking for presents, but I don’t. Christmas Eve is on December 24th. Christmas Day, December 25th, is a holiday. We always d)............... our presents on this day. We eat and drink a lot for lunch. After lunch, we usually e)............... games with our family. On December 26th, we f)............... Boxing Day. It is also a holiday. There are sports played on this day, especially horse racing and football matches! Shops traditionally have big sales, but we don’t go shopping. We usually g)............... sports on TV or spend time with friends. I would like to learn about other celebrations around the world.
Merry Christmas.
