In Britain. Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the Boxing das
following day after Christmas Day. However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first
weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. This
means it's a non-working day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a
Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday
第2页共5页(vx::jyhcc95)
The exact origin(起源) of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when
great salling ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest on each
ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. It was sealed up and
kept on board until the ship came home safely. Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for
the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing. The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents
with the poor until Christmas
One more thought is about the"Alms Box"placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshippers (做礼拜
的人) put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas, that is why that
day became know as Boxing Day.
Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by
donating their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in
need. Besides, spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now

In nature, you may see many insects and animals of different colors. Have you ever wondered why
locusts are super delicious food for birds, but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them. It is neither
because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies. The reason is
that the colors of locusts change with the colors of crops. When crops are young, locusts look green. But
when autumn comes, locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do
Brown bears, tigers and other animals move quietly through forests. They can't be seen easily by their
enemies. This is because they have colors similar to the trees. For the same reason, polar bears that live on
a land of snow and ice are white. Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers. Soil
insects are mostly dark-colored and they live under the soil in a dark and wet environment. However, insects
with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others, So in order to survive they have to
hide themselves in the daytime and appear only at night.
Have you ever noticed some even stranger acts The ink fish in the sea can send out some very black ink
when it faces danger. As the ink spreads over, its enemies will find themselves suddenly in a dark world. At
the same time the ink fish immediately swims away That is how it keeps itself safe though it is not strong at
all
