Essa é a primeira postagem de 2013! O mundo não acabou! Hoje vamos ler um texto com algumas palavras relacionadas à essa época do ano. Você pode dizer o que as palavras coloridas significam? Preste atenção:
"Everything starts when we are setting the Christmas Tree. It's a very good moment because we know Christmas is coming! We choose the best decoration for our house, like the socks at the fireplace, the lights hanging on the walls and bright star on the top of the Christmas Tree. Here in Brazil, as the day draws nearer, people go to the supermaket and buy the things they will eat at dinner of the 24th of December. Some time after the dinner, people give gifts one to another. Everybody gets happy! Then they wait until midnight, when you can see a lot of fireworks in the sky. But sometimes people forget why we celebrate Christmas. Jesus was sent from Heaven, he is the son of God, and He came to this earth and lived the perfect life and died for our sins, because God doesn't allow sin into his Heaven, and when we die, if we had accepted Jesus as our Savior, we are going to Heaven. He was born about 2012 years ago, and that's why we celebrate Christmas. We give gifts because Jesus and his family got gifts from three kings who came to see the new born baby, in the city of Bethlehem. But there is also a funny person in Christmas, his name is Santa Claus. He is a very old and fat man who wears red and white clothes and gives gifts to every children in the world if they had been good children throughout the year.
After Christmas, comes the New Year. In Brazil, people like to wear white clothes. They also say that you can have good luck in the next year if you eat lentils. If you are at the beach, you will see people jumping over seven waves, that brings good luck. And finally the countdown. Lots of firework in the sky, people hugging each other, happiness! They like to make plans for the next year, to achieve goals, like buying their new house, having a car, going on a trip... Some people can achieve their dreams, some can't... But if you want to reach a goal, you have to fight for it, not literally, but you have to work hard to make your dream come true. You can't give up! Say it: "I won't give up!".
After these days, people go back to work or continue on vacation and everything goes on like it was..."
