Read the following passage and choose the correct answer.
As Christmas evolved in the United States, new customs were adopted and many
old ones were reworked. The legend of Santa Claus, for example, had origins in Europe
and was brought by Dutch settlers to New York in the early 18th century. Traditionally,
Santa Claus – from the Dutch Sinter Klas – was depicted as a tall, dignified, religious
figure riding a white horse through the air. Known as Saint Nicholas in Germany, he was
usually accompanied by Black Peter, an elf who punished disobedient children. In North
America he eventually developed into a fat, jolly old gentleman who had neither the
religious attributes of Saint Nicholas nor the strict disciplinarian character of Black Peter.
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. By the late 19 th century he had become
such a prominent figure of American folklore that in 1897, when Virginia O’Hanlon wrote
to the New York Sun newspaper asking if Santa was real, she received a direct answer:
“Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus”.
