  31. People all know that December 25th is Christmas Day for American and other westerners. Yet not all the people know Boxing Day. Boxing Day is a holiday celebrated on December 26 which is not a Sunday, or the first weekday after Christmas. And it is a festival only for those service persons such as postmen, newspaper boys, milkmen and so on. On that day families traditionally give Christmas boxes to those service workers. It is a custom, but nobody knows how it was originated.(起源) A popular legend(传奇) tells the story. There was once a rich lady called Chatter in England. One morning many, many years ago, it snowed heavily. Chatter was waiting anxiously(焦急的) for a very important letter from her boyfriend. Then a post boy came and gave her the letter. She was so pleased that she gave him a box with presents. Later on, more and more people followed her example. As time went by, giving boxes with presents to service persons became a custom in Great Britain. Later the custom spread to the British Commonwealth(英联邦) and America. In the United States, some people give their employees (雇员) money instead of boxes nowadays.
