10、）family may make people think of images of all the royals gathered around the tree with mountains of presents on the morning of December 25, but it turns out that their holiday is structured in a different way than you might expect. According to their official website, the royal family hold their gi
11、ft-giving celebrations on December 24 by putting their gifts on tables and opening them after teatime.According to the Mirror，name tags （名签）indicating each member of the family are placed on the white tables in the houses red living room. The royal familys former chef Darren McGrady told Express tha
12、t this tradition followed their German descent （血统）.“The royals are of German descent so they weave German traditions into their celebrations，” he said. “After afternoon tea，they open gifts on Christmas Eve, as is the German tradition.Exchanging gifts on Christmas Eve frees up the familys Christmas
13、morning to attend the annual church service at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Sandringham Estate. McGrady told Cosmopolitan, “The service is followed by a big lunch consisting of roast chicken, salads, and traditional sides. They then regroup later for afternoon tea and fruitcake, followed by a
14、 buffet-style dinner later in the evening,”The queen also has a few special traditions of her own to ensure the holiday spirit reaches everyone around her. Each year she personally hands out gifts to members of the royal family in Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle. She also purchases about 1,500
15、Christmas puddings for the staff throughout the palaces，which she pairs with a greeting card from herself and Prince Philip.

19、hnology means that while money is still widely used, its more likely to be in a digital form than a lot of notes and a handful of small change. If cash is the king, then it may eventually be dethroned（废黜）.In 2017, the banking trade body UK Finance reported a 15% fall in the use of cash. Since their
20、first use, debit card（借记卡）payments have given cash a run for its money. Last year, for the first time ever, the use of debit cards and digital payment became the most popular method of paying. In fact, if it continues like this, the use of cold hard cash would end by 2026, says the report.Many busin

In a BBC article, its owner Mike Keen stated that, in this way， he could provide a quicker speed of service and save a lot of time as he neednt cash up each day or put money in the bank several ti
22、mes each week.However, according to the Access to Cash Review, an independent body measuring the need for cash in the UK, those living in rural areas with poor Internet connectivity and people who have physical or mental health problems are among those that find it difficult to use digital services.
23、 In addition, many service providers, such as window cleaners, are still paid cash in hand.Is cash dead?
