听力原文: Christmas is a day for family members to get together. People who live away try to get back home. The roads and railways are full of people traveling long distances in order to spend Christmas at home. Everyone wants to spend this day with their family. And above all, it's the children's holiday. They like to be happy at this day.

The children count the weeks, then the days to Christmas. They're wondering what presents they are going to have; they are very happy about this. They keep trying to find something out from their mother, but the only thing the mother will tell them is stories about Father Christmas, who brings presents to good children.

Christmas Eve comes at last. When the children go to bed they hang up their socks and on Christmas morning they wake to find them full of presents. Of course it's really their parents who fill the socks, but even the older children often pretend not to know this.

Everybody likes to be happy at Christmas time. The theatre puts on special shows for children. The circle is another thing that parents may take their children to see. Here, the audiences sit in a circle and the performance takes place in the center. The main attraction is the performing animals. Elephants, lions and tigers are trained to do astonishing tricks. Every circle has many funny persons who make people laugh.

Where do people want to spend Christmas?

A.In the park.

B.At home.

C.In a store.
