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 ChristmasBox 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 the 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“Alms 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.1.If Christmas Day is on a Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on _______.A. December 25thB. December 26thC.

On this holiday, younger people usually show love and respect for older people.③Respecting older people is a tradition in China. There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person ①_______ a room, everyone stands up. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.In western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. They are called “seniors” instead of “old people”. They'd rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement (退休), they take on hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well.Westerners respect their older people, too. ②Seniors don't need to pay when they take trains or buses. They are given discounts (折扣）in stores and restaurants.But western seniors don't often live with their children—they live alone. For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents' homes. A great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for children to show their respect.1.根据短文内容，在文中①处填入恰当的词。
