Section D<br>听力原文: "Christmas is coming, and the goose is getting fat!"<br>Christmas is the biggest festival in Britain and is celebrated on 25th December. The four weeks before Christmas are called Advent, and are traditionally celebrated in churches by lighting a candle each Sunday during this time. Nowadays, many people in Britain are not very religious, but they still celebrate Christmas, and watch out—the preparations begin long before Advent. In fact, as early as September or October, you start to see signs that Christmas is on the way.<br>The first places to tell us that we should be thinking about Christmas are the shops. People in Britain spend on average over £ 600 (around $1,000) per person on Christmas every year, and the shops encourage people to spend more and more. Shops put up Christmas decorations, play cheesy Christmas songs or carols, and some shop workers wear Christmas hats. Some big shops on Regent Street and Oxford Street in London create wonderful displays in their windows with moving characters, failing snow, colourful lights and music.<br>So what do people buy in preparation for Christmas? Well, Christmas decorations, Christmas cards to send to friends and relatives, presents for loved ones and wrapping paper to wrap them up with. And of course food ! Apart from the special Christmas dinner of roast turkey or goose, people buy lots of chocolates, nuts and snacks for everyone to enjoy.<br>Children are the people who get the most excited that Christmas is coming. They start making lists of presents they would like, and give them to their parents, or send them to Santa Claus. In December, they can also open Advent calendars, which are a way of counting down to Christmas. These calendars have a window to open for every day from the 1 st to the 24th of December (Christmas Eve).<br>A basic Advent calendar has a Christmassy picture behind each window, but most children's favourite calendars are chocolate Advent calendars, which show a chocolate for every day of the month. It's a great build-up to the overeating that goes on at Christmas!<br>In this section, you will hear a short passage. There are 10 missing words or phrases.
