Respuesta : capitulo 1 resumenExplicación : The protagonist is Ebenezer Scrooge, a greedy and stingy person who does not celebrate the Christmas party because of his lonely life and his addiction to work.

He doesn't care about others, not even his dedicated employee Bob Cratchit, he only imports himself.

One day, at home, Scrooge receives a visit from a mysterious spirit that turns out to be that of his best friend and partner Jacob Marley, who at the beginning of the story dies and later, announces a dark prophecy about the future of the miser and the arrival of the three Christmas spirits.

Scrooge is not frightened and defies prediction.

Over time the three Christmas spirits appear : that of the Past, which reminds Scrooge of his childhood and youthful life full of melancholy and longing before his work addiction ; as well as his excessive desire to enrich himself.

The present presents to the miser the current situation of the family of his employee Bob Cratchit, who despite his poverty and the illness of his son Tim, celebrates Christmas.

Then the Spirit shows him how all people celebrate Christmas ; even Scrooge's nephew, Fred, celebrates Christmas in an ironic but cheerful way (because the guests don't want the presence of the miser).

In the end the spirit shows a couple of children of tragically human origin : Ignorance and Need ; later the spirit disappears immediately at midnight.

The Spirit of the Future, dumb and gloomy, shows him the most heartbreaking : the fate of the greedy : his house ransacked by the poor, the sober memory of his friends from the Stock Exchange, the death of Tim Cratchit and the most frightening : his own grave, to which Scrooge is finally horrified and tries to convince the spirit that he is willing to change if destiny reverses him.

In the end, the miser wakes up from his nightmare and becomes a generous and kind man.

The change is experienced by Scrooge himself when he finally celebrates Christmas, makes a youngster buy him the turkey and send it to his Cratchit employee without disclosing who sent it.

Later he goes out to greet the people with a Merry Christmas and enters the house of his nephew Fred to celebrate, causing amazement among the guests.

With regard to Cratchit, he pretends to reprimand him for his late arrival at work ; he gives him a raise and goes with him to help the family and especially Tim in his treatment of the disease, which in the end causes happiness in them making memorable the phrase of little Tiny Tim.
