They remind me of being with my family in a warm sitting room, enjoying being together and eating chocolates. Here are my favorite English language Christmas films: Love，ActuallyLove, Actually is a fantastic film. It is made up of lots of different stories, various characters and their relationships with one another. Its a romantic comedy so even if some parts are a bit sad, there are plenty of funny moments and the ending is light-hearted. This film has many famous British actors, like Hugh Grant and Keira Knightley.ElfElf is an American comedy film starring Will Ferrell. Its about a man raised as an elf in Santa Clauss workshop. He leaves his life of toy making in the North Pole and travels to the United States to find himself. He gets into the real world, trying to spread the Christmas spirit to the people of New York. This film is full of silly jokes but also shows us the importance of having family around us. The holidayIn this romantic comedy, two women who are unhappy with their romantic situations decide to swap houses for Christmas. Amanda, played by Cameron Diaz, goes to England for the holiday, while Iris, Kate Winslets character, travels to Los Angeles. They both discover what winter is like on the other side of the world and both meet the man of their dreams in unexpected situations. Even if the ending is quite predictable(可预见的), this film is heart-warming and perfect for a winter afternoon.1. Why does the author enjoy the Christmas films on TV? A. They show Christmas is coming.

I almost screamed when I saw a spider on my toothpaste and had to remove it myself! I am also scared of clowns(小丑). Although they are supposed to be funny, I find their painted faces very scary!

I still enjoy the take-off and landing and going through the clouds. However, when I fly alone I often find myself feeling slightly petrified before the flight leaves.
