Solution

The correct option is A Australia

Christmas is celebrated in the summer in Australia because it is located in the southern hemisphere. In December, the Tropic of Capricorn receives direct sun rays as the South Pole tilts towards the Sun. Therefore, a larger portion of the southern hemisphere gets sunlight, with longer days and shorter nights. Thus, in Australia, people make "sandmen" and not snowmen.
