In Britain. Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the 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.
The
exact
origin
(起源)
of
the
holiday
is
unclear.
One
of
the
thoughts
is
that
during
the
Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was
placed by a priest
(神父)
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 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
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 known as Boxing Day.
Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing
Day alive by donating
(捐赠)
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.
