6. D? Technically Bill Murray's character was only "Scrooge-Like" not actually Scrooge.
7. Buon Natale! I know La Befana leaves gifts in kids' shoes or stockings... Hmm. Urn of Fate?
8. A Bondi Beach picnic! It's hot down there at Christmas time. LOL
9. D. LMAO
10. Well...Irish tradition says to leave a loaf on the table to insure you have enough bread for the coming year. So I'll go with that. :-)
Hmmm. I'm only going to answer number eight, because I can. It's b. Technically I think it's more of a barbecue than a picnic for the Aussies I know, but I think that still makes b right.
For number seven, well, a is my favorite.
Number 6 is, I guess, d. That's one version I've never seen.
Number 9: d.
