老师答疑

沅老师:

下面这篇短文是关于Boxing Day (节礼日) 的,不知是否是你需要的:
People all know that December 25th is the Christmas Day for Americans and other westerners. Yet not all the people know Boxing Day.
Boxing Day is a holiday observed on December 26, or the first weekday after Christmas. And it is a festival only for those service persons such as postmen, newspaper boys, milkmen, etc. On that day, families traditionally give Christmas boxes to those service workers. It is a custom, but nobody is certain how it was originated.
A popular legend tells the story. There was once a rich lady called Chatter in England. One morning many, many years ago, it snowed very heavily. Chatter was waiting anxiously for a very important letter from her boyfriend. Then a post boy came and gave her the letter. She was so pleased that she gave him a box with presents. Later on, more and more people followed her example. As time went by, giving boxes with presents to service persons became a custom in Great Britain. Later the custom spread to the British Commonwealth and America. In the United States, some people give their employees money instead of boxes nowadays.
