III) True or false?
One of the greatest holidays in Britain is Christmas. People pay great attention to its symbols. Starting from the front door till the food on the table you can find a lot of evidence of their love.
Who has not heard about Christmas stockings? It is said that one night Santa flew over the chimney and dropped some gold coins into the socks hung to get dry. So now every year people put stockings above the fireplace and wait for surprises.
The Christmas tree is also a part of this holiday. We can see a star on the top of it symbolizing Bethlehem star which revealed the birth of Jesus.
Today almost everyone knows «Jingle Bells» or «Merry Christmas» songs. The word «carol» means «songs of joy». So, singing some joyful carols at Christmas night can bring you a lot of happiness.
One of the sweet symbols is a candy cane. It is a caramel cane-shaped stick, white and red. It reminds the letter «J» according to the name of Jesus Christ.
Thus, the British give a special meaning to many things to celebrate this holiday.
