01. Temos como informação que o nome da autora o texto "My Colombian Christmas" se chama Daniela Franco.

02. De acordo com o texto, na Colômbia, as celebrações e preparativos do Natal começam na noite de 7 de Dezembro. A partir de 16 de Dezembro até a véspera de Natal, muitos colombianos participam de 'novenas'.

No dia 28 de dezembro pessoas celebram o Dia dos Inocentes, que é como o Dia da Mentira.

03. A autora diz não ter sido capaz de desfrutar do chamado Día de las Velitas, que serve como a 'novena' para se comemorar o Natal.

E também, a autora diz que pôde comemorar o Natal normalmente nos Estados Unidos, nos dias atuais.

No entanto, as festas na Colômbia possuem tons alegres e festivos, de acordo com a autora. Até maiores do que na América.

04. Na Colômbia é uma época de competição de sobrevivência, pois todos os lugares competem para decidir qual região está melhor decorada.

No dia 1º de dezembro, as decorações sobem em todas as partes. É como se todo mundo tivesse ficado acordado a noite anterior decorando incansavelmente, porque eles aparecem no ar.

05.

O início oficial "não oficial" da temporada de férias é em 7 de dezembro, o Día de las Velitas, um feriado nacional na Colômbia.

De acordo com o texto, em cada esquina você pode ver alguém vendendo um conjunto de velas que você veria mais tarde nas varandas, nas janelas e calçadas das pessoas.

06. As tradições natalinas mencionadas nos textos são as decorações, juntamente das comidas típicas.

Ao chegar ao dia de Natal se trata de uma jornada cheia de orações, decorações e comida. Anos depois, a autora percebe o quanto ama todas essas tradições.

07. Respondendo em inglês, temos:

In my family, we try to get together every year during Christmas, as it is a festive time when we celebrate our fraternal bonds, with great affection and adoration.

In my family, we make typical foods from the North region, which is where I came from. Among my family's traditions are some jokes like the hidden friend or the secret friend.

In our house we also have meals only after midnight, which is when Christmas is really celebrated, on December 25th.

08. According to information from the text and the author, on December 24th they eat typical foods from the Colombian region.

09.
