It's November now and Christmas is on the way. What would be a better way to spend time

with your loved ones than sitting down to watch some classic Christmas movies? 1. The Grinch (2000)

This is a Christmas must-watch. It was originally (最初) a children's book written by Dr. Seuss, which I would suggest reading! It's the story of a green monster (怪 兽) who wants to destroy Christmas but who in the end discovers the power of love. I promise it's a great film with plenty of laughs along the way. 2. Love Actually (2003)

While this is not a personal favourite of mine, people in the UK love this film. It features (由……主 演) famous actors and actresses such as Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman. It might be a little difficult to follow, but the heart-warming story makes it worth watching. 3. Home Alone (1990)

This is one of my favourite films of all time and I would watch it all year round if I could. It tells the story of a boy, Kevin, who is left alone in his house when his large family forget to take him on vacation. While the family are away, burglars (窃贼) try to break into the house and Kevin must protect his home by setting traps (圈套). The trips, falls and traps will have you laughing out loud as you watch a 10-year-old boy outsmart two grown men. 4. Miracle on 34th Street (1994)

You can't have Christmas in an English-speaking country without watching this film. It's not funny like Home Alone or The Grinch, but it is really touching. It's about a man who says he is Santa Claus, but nobody believes him except a lawyer and a little girl. The storyline may seem a little childish but you can enjoy it at any age.

21. Which movie is based on a children's book?

A. The Grinch. B. Love Actually. C. Home Alone. D. Miracle on 34th Street. 22. What does the author think of Miracle on 34 Street?

A. It is his favourite movie. B. It is funny and touching.

C. It is a little difficult to follow. D. It is suitable for people of all ages. 23. What do the four movies have in common?
