  Christmas is a holiday filled with happiness and pretty decorations，and it is great for kids to spend it with family and friends.Whether you celebrate it，it is a day for fun，love，and joy.To Celebrate Christmas，many families decorate their homes and get together to enjoy big meals.Just like us，Santa-Father Christmas loves to taste the local delicious food wherever he travels.What kids prepare for Santa varies from country to country.

  DenmarkSanta is known in Denmark as the Yule Man.He is treated to a bowl of rice pudding（布?。?called risengrod.Danes also leave him a cup of coffee.It gives him caffeine to help him work too late in the evening. China    Santa is known as Sheng dan lao ren in China.On Christmas Eve，which the Chinese call Peaceful Evening，there is no food or drink for the old man.Instead，people exchange apples—because of the Mandarin word for apple and peace rhyme. Italy    Children leave Santa a glass of wine and tangerines.Santa is known here as Baba Natale，but most gifts come from La Befana—a Christmas witch—on the night of January 5.It is a festival named Epiphany. Australia    Because of the season，Santa can be a little hot in his fur-trimmed （毛邊） red suit.So in Australia many homes leave a cold tinny of beer for Father Christmas，as well as a piece of fruit cake and cookies. Japan    Christmas is considered a romantic holiday by the Japanese.Santa gets no special treats，but if he's lucky，he might get some of the food and drink that the Japanese like to celebrate Christmas with KFC and a special Pepsi that tastes of strawberry cake.

四、信息摘錄

• 8．A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally，while a bad memory is always seen as something that cannot be changed.In fact，you can do something to improve your memory.Here is some advice to you.
      First of all，we all remember the things we are interested in and always forget the ones that bore us.This explains the reason why schoolboys remember football results easily but struggle with the dates from their history lessons!Develop an active interest in what you want to remember，and focus on it consciously.One way to make yourself more interested is to ask questions—the more，the better!
      Second，repeat things in chucks（塊）.Repeating things in chucks is the best way to remember things for a short time.For example，remember a phone number for a few seconds.Grouping numbers helps you to remember jye.aim.jye.ai following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember in a very short time：13736109912.But if you look at them in "chunks"，it will be much easier：13736109912.
      To remember long lists，try making up a story which includes all the things you want to memorize.In a text，people were asked to remember 100 words in this way and when they were tested later，they could remember ninety percent of them!
      Physical exercise is also important for your memory，it increases your heart rate（心率）.And O₂ sends more oxygen to your brain.Those make your memory work better.Exercise also reduces stress，which is very bad for the memory.
