Lời giải tham khảo:
Đáp án đúng: D
Thông tin: Santa’s transformation began in 1823, when a New York newspaper published the poem A Visit from Saint Nicholas, which Clement Clark Moore had written to amuse his daughter. The poem introduced many Americans to the story of a kindly saint who flew over housetops in a reindeer-drawn sleigh. Portraits and drawings of Santa Claus by American illustrator Thomas Nast further strengthened the legend during the second half of the 19th century. Living at the North Pole and assisted by elves, the modern Santa produced and delivered toys to all good children.
Dịch: Sự chuyển đổi ở Santa Lau bắt đầu vào năm 1823, khi một tờ báo ở New York xuất bản bài thơ A Visit from Saint Nicholas, mà Clement Clark Moore đã viết để giải trí cho con gái mình. Bài thơ đã giới thiệu cho nhiều người Mỹ về câu chuyện về một vị thánh tốt bụng bay qua những người hầu trong chiếc xe trượt tuyết do tuần lộc vẽ. Chân dung và bản vẽ ông già Noel của họa sĩ minh họa người Mỹ Thomas Nast càng củng cố thêm huyền thoại trong nửa sau của thế kỷ 19. Sống ở Bắc Cực và được các yêu tinh giúp đỡ, ông già Noel hiện đại đã sản xuất và giao đồ chơi cho tất cả những đứa trẻ ngoan.
