TRUE or FLASE.
Christmas is an important Christian holiday in Europe and North America. It
is celebrated on December 25th. In the weeks before Christmas, Christmas
trees are put up in homes and offices and are beautifully decorated. People
dress up as Santa Claus and sit in shopping malls giving children presents.
Christmas carols are played and sung in the malls and on the streets.
Families and friends usually exchange presents. Families share a
Christmas meal that usually consists of roast turkey, roast potatoes and a
large choice of vegetables followed by Christmas Pudding and Mince pies.

sometimes champagne. Since shops and entertainment centers are closed,

people celebrate on Christmas Eve and the day after Christmas which is
called Boxing Day.
