Christmas
Christmas
is the main public holiday in Britain and the US. This day is held on December
25th in honour of the birth of Jesus Christ. People often see it as
a time of merry-making and present giving.
Christmas
is a religious holiday, when Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.
The Christmas story comes from the Bible. An Angel appeared to shepherds and
told them that a Savior had been born to Mary and Joseph in a stable in Bethlehem.
The Wise Men followed a star until it led them to
Jesus. The Wise Men gave
Jesus many gifts. So
it is a tradition to give presents on Christmas Day. Another
tradition is to put a star on the top of Christmas tree.
On
Christmas families are usually spend the day opening their presents which are
often piled around the Christmas tree decorated with tinsel, candles, baubles, and
fairy lights. The most beautiful Christmas tree is in the centre of London
in Trafalgar Square. This is a present from the people of Norway
to people of Great Britain.
All
houses are beautifully decorated. Holly and mistletoe are used to decorate the
house. They put branches of holly and mistletoe over the doors.
The
most important meal is Christmas dinner. At the start of the meal, British
people often pull a cracker, which contains a small toy, a paper bat, and a
joke. The typical meal nowadays consists of turkey with potatoes and other
vegetables such as carrots and sprouts.
In
Britain the dinner is followed by Christmas pudding – a sweet pudding
containing a lot of dried fruit and often covered with burning brandy. Other
traditional foods in Britain include Christmas cake – a cake containing a lot
of dried fruit and usually having a covering of icing (hard sugar) made to be
eaten at Christmas, and mince pies. Traditionally a coin is put into the
pudding. It brings luck to a person who finds it.
People
sometimes go carol singing, which means singing carols in the street,
outside people’s houses.
There
is a tradition that children should put a long sock called a Christmas stocking
at the end of their bed or by the chimney or hang it by the fireplace so that
Santa Claus will fill it with presents. Tangerines or nuts are often put into
the stockings. Santa Claus is supposed to visit each house on Christmas Eve by
climbing down the chimney.
Santa
Claus, also called Santa, Father Christmas (in Britain), or Kriss Kringle (in America)
is an imaginary old man in red clothes and with a long white beard. He is
supposed to fly about the sky in a sleigh, pulled by reindeer.
In
Britain, the day after Christmas is called Boxing Day and is also a public
holiday. A lot of sports take place on Boxing Day and many people now spend
time watching sport on television. In the US many stores hold special sales,
where things can be bought cheaply, on the day after Christmas.
2.
The
second task we will do with the help of our Lab System. Put on your earphones.
The
first task here is to match if the statements are true or false?
Учащиеся

The
second task here is to make the right choice. You will hear the questions and
three variants of answers to them. Your task is to choose the right one.
Учащиеся

Now you will work in groups of four. Your task is to make up three questions to
the text. After it each group will ask another one. You are to answer all the
questions.
Учащиеся
составляют
вопросы
в
группах.
После
этого задают вопросы друг другу. В это время двум ученикам раздаются
индивидуальные задания по тексту. Они выполняют их письменно.
4. Well,
you will work in pairs. Your task is to complete short texts about celebrating
Christmas in different countries. You will have them, but you are to put the
sentences into a logical order and then you’ll read them to all of us.
Задание
для учащихся – в парах поставить предложения по порядку и прочитать получившийся
текст вслух.
The
Netherlands
In
the Netherlands, holiday tradition centers on the arrival of St. Nicholas.
The
saint is said to come on horseback, bearing gifts for the children.
Before
going to bed, the children leave out their shoes.
They
hope to find them filled with goodies when they awake.
Venezuela
In
Venezuela, the week leading up to Christmas is a time of great celebration.
It
is the custom in Caracas to roller skate to church at this time.
Many
neighborhoods even close busy streets to traffic so that skaters can get
around.
After
attending church, Venezuelans dine on coffee and tostados.
Poland
Right
after Christmas, people travel in horse-drawn sleighs for the Kulig – the
winter sleigh party.
Families
gather in the forest, light fires, and prepare festive meals.
Later
in the evening, they celebrate with dancing and fireworks.
Germany
In
rural parts of southern Germany, the three Thursday evenings before Christmas
are known as Knocking nights.
Children
dress in masks and travel from house to house chanting rhymes beginning with
the word knock.
Along
the way, the children crack whips, ring cowbells, and clatter dish covers to
drive away evil spirits.
