1 Buckingham Palace: This is the right answer. The Queen officially resides at Buckingham Palace: a rather attractive and large house in central London.
1 Big Ben: This isn't the best choice: Big Ben is the name given to a bell in the tower of the Houses of Parliament. The Queen doesn't live there.
1 The Ministry of Sound: This isn't the best choice: the Ministry of Sound is a dance music club in South London, but the Queen doesn't live there.
2 for citizens of Britain and the Commonwealth: This is the correct choice here. The Queen delivers her Christmas message or speech on December 25th, directed at British subjects and people living in Commonwealth countries. "The Commonwealth" is a group made up mostly of nations which are former British colonies. Commonwealth nations include India, Jamaica, Kenya, and Australia.
2 delivered by the British Prime Minister: This isn't the right choice. The Queen's speech, as its name suggests, is delivered by the Queen!
2 in a bottle: The Queen's speech, as its name suggests, is delivered by the Queen! A message in a bottle might be useful on a desert island, but it's not the best choice here.
3 carols: "Carols" is the best choice here. Christmas carols are songs sung at Christmas time, like "Jingle Bells", "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", and "O Christmas Tree".
3 jennys: Sorry, but there's no such thing as a "Christmas jenny". Unless you're thinking of my friend Jenny on December 25th.
3 lauras: Sorry, but there's no such thing as a "Christmas laura". Unless you're thinking of my friend Laura on December 25th.
4 Boxing Day: "Boxing Day" is the right answer. In many English-speaking countries, December 26th is a public holiday, meaning that you don't have to go to work! The origins of the name "Boxing Day" are uncertain, but it's probably related to putting money in a box for charity. Most people eat cold turkey and watch hours of television on Boxing Day.
4 Thanksgiving Day: This isn't the best choice. Thanksgiving is an American celebration which commemorates a shared meal between Native Americans and European settlers. In the US, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November.
4 Hangover Day: Although lots of people are hungover on December 26th, this isn't the name given to that day. When you "have a hangover" or "are hungover", it means that you drank too much alcohol the night before. Hic!
