The Christmas Broadcast 2021
He is someone who doesn't take easily to compliments but he has, quite simply, been my strength and stay all these years, and I, and his whole family, and this and many other countries, owe him a debt greater than he would ever ________(声称), or we shall ever know.
Although it's a time of great happiness and good cheer for many, Christmas can be hard for those who have lost _______(love) ones. This year, especially, I understand why.
But for me, in the months since the death of my beloved Philip, I have drawn great comfort from the warmth and affection of the many tributes to his life and work – from around the country, the Commonwealth and the world. His sense of service, intellectual _________ and capacity to squeeze fun out of any situation – were all irrepressible. That mischievous, enquiring twinkle was as bright at the end as when I first set eyes on him.
But life, of course, _________of final partings as well as first meetings; and as much as I and my family miss him, I know he would want us to enjoy Christmas.
We felt his _________(present) as we, like millions around the world, _______ (ready) ourselves for Christmas. While Covid again means we can't celebrate quite as we may have wished, we can still enjoy the many happy traditions. Be it the singing of carols (as long as the tune is well known); _________ the tree; giving and receiving presents; or watching a favourite film where we already know the ending, it's no surprise that families so often treasure their Christmas _________. We see our own children and their families embrace the roles, traditions and values that mean so much to us, as these are passed from one _________ to the next, sometimes being updated for changing times. I see it in my own family and it is a source of great happiness.
Prince Philip was always mindful of this sense of passing the baton. That's why he created The Duke of Edinburgh's Award, which offers young people throughout the Commonwealth and beyond the chance of _________(explore) and adventure. It remains an astonishing success, ________ (ground) in his faith in the future.
He was also an early champion of taking seriously our stewardship of the environment; and I am proud beyond words that his pioneering work has been taken on and magnified by our eldest son Charles and his eldest son William - _________(admire) supported by Camilla and Catherine - most recently at the COP climate change summit in Glasgow.
Next summer, we look forward to the Commonwealth Games. The baton is currently travelling the length and _________(broad) of the Commonwealth, heading towards Birmingham, a beacon of hope on its journey. It will be a chance to celebrate the achievements of _________ and the coming-together of like-minded nations.
And February, just six weeks from now, will see the start of my Platinum Jubilee year, which I hope will be an opportunity for people everywhere to enjoy a sense of _________(together); a chance to give thanks for the_________ changes of the last seventy years - social, scientific and cultural - and also to look ahead with confidence.
I am sure someone somewhere today will remark that Christmas is a time for children. It's an _________(engage) truth, but only half the story. Perhaps it's truer to say that Christmas can speak to the child within us all. Adults, when ________(weigh) down with worries, sometimes fail to see the joy in simple things, where children do not.
And for me and my family, even with one__________ laugh missing this year, there will be joy in Christmas, as we have the chance to reminisce, and see anew the wonder of the festive season through the eyes of our young children, of whom we were ________ (delight) to welcome four more this year.
They teach us all a lesson - just as the Christmas story does - that in the birth of a child, there is a new dawn with endless _________.
It is this _________(simple) of the Christmas story that makes it so _________ (普遍地) appealing: simple happenings that formed the starting point of the life of Jesus — a man whose teachings have been handed down from generation to generation, and have been the bedrock of my faith. His birth marked a new beginning. As the carol says, "The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight". I wish you all a very happy Christmas.

爱丁堡公爵国际奖（the Duke of Edinburgh International Award）创立于 1956 年，由英国女王伊丽莎白二世的丈夫菲利普亲王（即爱丁堡公爵）与德国教育家库尔特 · 哈恩（Kurt Hahn）共同发起。二人认为，年轻人在某些关键领域的发展存在缺失，因此此项计划旨在帮助年轻人在确立目标、寻找激情和获得认可的同时能够得到全面发展，成为国际化人才并拥有领袖才能。参与该计划的学生，年龄介乎 14 到 25 岁，目前已覆盖至全球 140 多个国家和地区，人数多达 800 多万。
英联邦（Commonwealth of Nations）是一个由 54 个主权国家（包括属地）所组成的国际组织，成员大多为前英国殖民地或其保护国。目前，英联邦成员国中有 15 个是英联邦王国（如加拿大、澳大利亚和新西兰），其国家元首为英国女王伊丽莎白二世，另外 5 个是拥有各自君主的君主制国家（如文莱、马来西亚等），其余 34 个国家为共和国。英联邦覆盖了全球近 1/3 的人口。在全球 79 亿人中，大约有 25 亿人生活在英联邦国家，其中大多数年龄小于 30 岁。在 2018 年举行的英联邦高峰会上， 54 个成员国领袖讨论后同意伊丽莎白二世女王的提议，决定让威尔士亲王查尔斯继任下任英联邦元首。
