Will, will, he will put the present on you of that smelly socks, Christmas will see as soon as you wake up!

I want a car, I want the Ottoman and ice-sugar gourd!

Well, there are! Santa Claus will satisfy you. Mother always says so.

Then, with a hidden desire, quietly waiting for the Santa Claus gift. On Christmas Eve that day evening, mother came to my bed, said to me, as long as my darling sleep, Santa Claus will come for my gifts. Then, the mother would say: ok, darling, darling to sleep. Mother put your dirty clothes to wash, clean tomorrow. Christmas day opened his sleepy eyes, will see a small socks hanging in my bed, it looks heavy. That containing all kinds of gifts, although not the same every year, but is in line with my desire.

Every time I received a Christmas present, always found with all kinds of labels on it. Im sure that is Santa Claus, know what I like, go to the store to buy me.

记得每到12月，我总会拉着爸爸妈妈的手，问：爸爸妈妈，今年圣诞老人会来吗?

会的，一定会的，他会把礼物放在你那只臭烘烘的袜子里，圣诞节你一醒来就会看到拉!

我要小汽车，我要奥特曼，还有冰糖葫芦!

好好，都有!圣诞老人都会满足你的。妈妈总是这么说。

于是，怀着一个隐秘的愿望，静静地等待着圣诞老人的礼物。到了平安夜那一天晚上，妈妈来到我的床边，对我说，只要我乖乖睡觉，圣诞老人一定会来给我送礼物的。随后，妈妈就会说：好了，宝贝，乖乖睡。妈妈把你的脏衣服拿去洗洗，明天就干干净净的了。圣诞节那一天睁开惺忪的双眼，总会看见一只小袜子挂在我的床头，看起来沉甸甸的。那里面装着各种各样的礼物，虽然每年都不一样，但都是符合我心愿的。

每次收到圣诞礼物时，总会发现上面贴着各种标签。我想，肯定是圣诞老人知道我喜欢什么，特地到商店给我买的吧。

春节一般指正月初一，是一年的第一天，又叫阴历年，俗称“过年”;但在民间，传统意义上的春节是指从腊月的腊祭或腊月二十三或二十四的祭灶，一直到正月十九，其中以除夕和正月初一为高潮。在春节期间，中国的汉族和一些少数民族都要举行各种活动以示庆祝。

圣诞节(Christmas)又称耶诞节，译名为“基督弥撒”，西方传统节日，在每年12月25日。弥撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式。圣诞节是一个宗教节，因为把它当作耶稣的诞辰来庆祝，故名“耶诞节”。

大部分的天主教教堂都会先在24日的平安夜，亦即12月25日凌晨举行子夜弥撒，而一些基督教会则会举行报佳音，然后在12月25日庆祝圣诞节;基督教的另一大分支——东正教的圣诞节庆则在每年的1月7日。

圣诞节也是西方世界以及其他很多地区的公共假日，例如：在亚洲的香港、澳门、马来西亚和新加坡。圣经实际上并无记载耶稣诞生日期，圣诞节是后人公定的。

翻译：

很小很小的时候，是妈妈给我讲圣诞节的故事：妈妈说，过圣诞节那天，只要把圣诞袜挂到房门口，就会有圣诞爷爷发礼物到袜子里，后来我知道发礼物的圣诞爷爷就是我的爸爸。

上幼儿园的时候，过圣诞节那天老师让小朋友们都带上圣诞帽，小朋友们带上圣诞帽做早操真好看啊!然后老师还会给我们发些糖果。

我每年都盼着过圣诞节，走到大街小巷都能感受到圣诞节日的气氛。听到好听的圣诞歌，看到美丽的圣诞树和圣诞爷爷，也能收到礼物。

今年圣诞节我有一个想法，我要自己学会唱那首圣诞歌，并把它当作礼物唱给我的老师、同学，还有身边所有关心我的人听。我想对大家说：“朋友们，圣诞节快乐!”

圣诞节的晚上，我做了一个美丽的梦。

我梦见我到了雪人村庄。那里有许多的大雪人在向我招手。我看见那里有许多非常漂亮的小房子。房子里有很多圣诞精灵。精灵们对我很友好，他们带我去见了圣诞老人。圣诞老人说：“我正要去给大家送礼物，你就和我一起去吧。”说罢，圣诞老人一吹口哨，驯鹿们拉着车，嘎哒，嘎哒的跑过来，我和圣诞老人坐上车，圣诞老人背上礼物，我拿着礼物的名单。鹿车飞了起来，我拉开名单，发现这个名单简直太长了，我用两臂使劲把名单伸展开，可还是不够长。我一边念着名单，圣诞老人一边发着礼物。街道上到处都洋溢着孩子们的笑声，他们有的唱歌，有的跳舞，都很高兴。

礼物终于发完了。我和圣诞老人回到了雪人村庄。我正要和他们道别时，圣诞老人叫住了我，老人从他的口袋里拿出了最后一份礼物，送给了我。我谢过圣诞老人后回家了。 我觉得这是我最快乐的一次圣诞节。

Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December. It is a very happy day for many boys and girls . Before the term ends in some schools , the children act a nativity① or “birth” play, showing how Jesus② was born in a stable③.

On the twenty-fourth of December, all children are very excited. Usually they are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents ready. The younger children think that Father Christmas will come down the chimney or fireplace , so they hang up a sock for him to put presents in. The greedy ones even hang up a pillow-case④ or a sack⑤ to try to get more presents. Later that night, Father or Mother will put presents in the sock, and leave others at the side of the bed.

On Christmas morning, the children wake up very early. Some even turn on the light at two oclock, and most of them are awake by six oclock although it is not light in England for another hour or two at this time of the year.

Children look for their presents , and the young ones play while the dinner is prepared. At about one oclock in the afternoon, the Christmas dinner is brought in . The turkey or chicken is quickly eaten . Children search in their Christmas pudding for new coins which are hidden in it . The rest of the day is full of games and eating until the happiest of all Christmas hollidays comes to an end.

"We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas…"Have you heard that song? Yup! Its Christmas time! This Christmas, I stayed with my "host family"1. It was an amazing experience to see how a typical American family would celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.

Christmas, like our Spring Festival, has a meaning in itself. Christmas Day, which is on December 25, is the birthday of Jesus Christ--the son of God. Thats why it is called Christmas. On that day, Christians would get together with their families to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious meaning of Christmas has become less emphasized. To many families, it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting present-giving.

Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11. I stayed at my friend, Stephen Stapczynskis house--his family was my "host family". Although Christmas was still more than ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming everywhere. The Christmas tree had already been set up, and on every windowsill, there were Christmas lights. On the first day I arrived at their house, Stephen and I helped Mrs. Stapczynski put decorations on the Christmas tree. The tree looked so nice with all the lights on and the beautiful ornaments dangling from its branches.

As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their houses, inviting all their neighbors to come. So every night, if you went out, you would see a long line of cars parked in front of some house--a partys on!

Whats more, the Christmas decorations that some people put on their windows and in gardens were just amazing. On one night, we went out in our car for a "tour of lights". There was one street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way into the local paper. We had a hard time finding the well-hidden street, but it turned out to be worth the effort. Lights shone brightly in front of nearly every house, on trees, bushes, doors, windows…everywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem almost like daytime. Huge inflatable figures in the front gardens were waving to us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer--with his red nose gleaming ever so brightly; even Bart Simpson--a character in the famous comedy The Simpsons--had joined the jolly party, wearing a Santas hat. The street set off a lot of "ooh"s and "aah"s inside the car.4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street, all there to see the lights.

The origin of the Christmas

Christmas Day-December 25-which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, the founder of the Christian religion, is the biggest and best-loved holiday in the Christian World.

According to the Bible, the holy book of Christians, God decided to allow his only son, Jesus Christ, to be born to a human mother and live on earth so that people could understand God better and learn to love God and each other more. "Christmas"- meaning "celebration of Christ "- honors the time when Jesus was born to a young Jewish woman Mary.

Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, a carpenter, but before they came together, she was found to be with child. Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago is not known, the calendar on the supposed date divides all time into B.C. (Before Christ )and A.D. ( a Latin phrase, Anno Domini, "in the year of our Lord.") For the first 300 years, Jesus birthday was celebrated on different dates. Finally, in the year 354, church leaders chose December 25 as his birthday.

译文：圣诞节的由来

十二月二十五日圣诞节庆祝耶稣基督的诞生,基督教的创始人,基督教世界最大和最受人喜爱的节日。

根据圣经,圣经的基督徒,上帝决定让他唯一的儿子,耶稣基督,出生,母亲是人类,生活在地球上,这样人们能更好地了解上帝,学习热爱上帝和彼此更多。“圣诞节”——意思是“庆祝基督”——纪念耶稣诞生的时候,一个年轻的犹太妇女玛丽。

玛丽约瑟夫订婚,一个木匠,但他们同居之前,约瑟夫发现了她和孩子。约瑟夫,因为她的丈夫是一个正派的人,又不想把这件事说出去让她丢脸,所以他想悄悄地和她分手。

但他认为这后,耶和华的使者在梦中向他显现,说,“不要害怕把玛丽带回家作为你的妻子,因为她怀孕是圣灵。她将生下一个儿子,你要给他起名叫耶稣,因为他将从罪恶中拯救他的人。”

虽然耶稣诞生的确切日期将近2000年前不知道,应该上的日历日期时间分为公元前公元(公元前)和(拉丁短语,老年,“我们的主。”)300年第一,庆祝耶稣的生日是在不同的日期。最后,在354年,教会领袖选择12月25日定为耶稣基督的生日。

Tinsel was also invented in Germany in about 1610. Up until fairly recently real silver was used, which was pulled into wafer thin strips by special machines. This was durable but tarnished quickly and mmany experiments took plaace to try and find an alternative - including a mix of lead and tin, which was too heavy and kept breaking. It was only in the mid 20th century that a viable alternative was found.

Artificial trees were invented in the 1880s in a bid to try and stop some of the damage being caused to real trees due to people lopping the tip off large trees, thus preventing the trees from growing any further. It got so bad in Germany that laws had to be brought in to prevent people having more than one tree.

Prince Albert, husband of Queen Victoria, is credited with being responsible for introducing the custom of the Christmas tree to the British public by decorating the first English Christmas tree at Windsor Castle in 1841 using candles, sweets, fruit and gingerbread.

The popularity of the Christmas tree grew in Britain during the first half of the 20th century, with trees becoming bigger and more elaborately decorated with bells, baubles and tinsel. However, the onset of the Second World War resulted in a ban on cutting down trees for decoration and people resorted to having small, artificial tabletop trees bearing home made decorations. These were often taken down into the air raid shelters when the sirens sounded to provide a bit of Christmas cheer!

Christmas， annual Christian holiday commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ。 Most members of the Roman Catholic Church and followers of Protestantism celebrate Christmas on December 25， and many celebrate on the evening of December 24 as well。 Members of the Eastern Orthodox Church usually delay their most important seasonal ceremonies until January 6， when they celebrate Epiphany， a commemoration of the baptism of Jesus。 Epiphany also traditionally commemorates the arrival of the Three Wise Men of the East in Bethlehem （near Jerusalem， Israel）， where they adored the infant Jesus and presented him with gifts of gold， frankincense， and myrrh。 The official Christmas season， popularly known as either Christmastide or the Twelve Days of Christmas， extends from the anniversary of Christ’s birth on December 25 to the feast of Epiphany on January 6。  Christmas is based on the story of Jesus’ birth as described in the Gospel according to Matthew （see Matthew 1：18—2：12） and the Gospel according to Luke （see Luke 1：26—56）。 Roman Catholics first celebrated Christmas， then known as the Feast of the Nativity， as early as 336 ad。 The word Christmas entered the English language sometime around 1050 as the Old English phrase Christes maesse， meaning festival of Christ。 Scholars believe the frequently used shortened form of Christmas—Xmas—may have come into use in the 13th century。 The X stands for the Greek letter chi， an abbreviation of Khristos （Christ）， and also represents the cross on which Jesus was crucified。

12月25日，是基督教徒纪念耶稣诞生的日子，称为圣诞节。从12月24日于翌年1月6日为圣诞节节期。节日期间，各国基督教徒都举行隆重的纪念仪式。圣诞节本来是基督教徒的节日，由于人们格外重视，它便成为一个全民性的节日，是西方国家一年中最盛大的节日，可以和新年相提并论，类似我国过春节。西方人以红、绿、白三色为圣诞色，圣诞节来临时家家户户都要用圣诞色来装饰。红色的有圣诞花和圣诞蜡烛。绿色的是圣诞树。它是圣诞节的主要装饰品，用砍伐来的杉、柏一类呈塔形的常青树装饰而成。上面悬挂着五颜六色的彩灯、礼物和纸花，还点燃着圣诞蜡烛。红色与白色相映成趣的是圣诞老人，他是圣诞节活动中最受欢迎的人物。西方儿童在圣诞夜临睡之前，要在壁炉前或枕头旁放上一只袜子，等候圣诞老人在他们入睡后把礼物放在袜子内。在西方，扮演圣诞老人也是一种习俗。

Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December. It is a very happy day for many boys and girls. Before the term ends in some schools, the children act a nativity or “birth” play, showing how Jesus was born in a stable.

12月25日是圣诞节。对许多男孩和女孩来说，这天是个非常开心的日子。在某些学校，学期结束前，孩子们会表演有关（耶稣）诞生或出生的戏剧，用来（向大家）展示耶稣是如何在马厩里出生的。

The greedy ones even hang up a pillow-case or a sack to try to get more presents. Later that night, father or mother will put presents in the sock, and leave others at the side of the bed.

在12月24日这天，所有的小孩都很兴奋。他们常常被（父母）早早地赶上床去睡觉，以便他们的父母能准备好礼物。年幼一点的小孩认为圣诞老人将从烟囱或壁炉里下来，所以他们挂起袜子，方便圣诞老人把礼物放进去。有些贪心的人，为了能得到更多的礼物，甚至把枕套或布袋挂起来。晚一些时候，爸爸或妈妈将礼物放进袜子，并把其他礼物放在（孩子们的）床边。

On Christmas morning, the children wake up very early. Some even turn on the light at two oclock, and most of them are awake by six oclock, and the young ones play while the dinner is prepared. At about one oclock in the afternoon, the Christmas dinner is brought in. The turkey or chicken is quickly eaten. Children search in their Christmas pudding for new coins which are hidden in it. The rest of the day is full of games and eating until the happiest of all Christmas holidays comes to an end.

圣诞节的早上，小孩们很早就醒来了。一些人甚至在凌晨两点开灯，但大多数小孩会在六点醒来，孩子们在（大人们）准备晚餐的时候玩耍。下午一点，圣诞大餐出炉了。火鸡或鸡腿总是很快被抢光。孩子们寻找着属于他们的圣诞布丁是为了确认金币是否有藏在里面。在剩余的时间里，（人们）便是玩游戏和吃食物直到最开心幸福的圣诞节结束。

Christmas is a time for miracles

Christmas is a time for miracles.It is also a time when the dull things of daily life and the forecast of human hature gives way to a spiritual awakening.Allow me to share with you one truly wonder of Christmas.

Our miracle story comes from an incident that occurred in Flanders, Belgium, at the dawn of World War I. On December 24th ,1914, German and English troops faced each other from the relative safety of their ditches across which no mans land lying between them. Suddenly, the silence was broken, not by gunfire, but by the strains of Silent Night arising from the German position. It wasnt long before the English troops responded with a Yuletide hymn of their own. Then an amazing sight surprised the eyes of the English soldiers. A German soldier holding a small tree arranged with lighted candles began to walk across the land toward the English lines. This miraculous scene occasioned the declaration of a truce followed by English and German troops greeting one another, exchanging small gifts and singing songs of Christmas. Word of this incredible phenomenon reached the High Command of both sides.

On Christmas Day, both armies moved from their positions to engage in the killing of war at other battlefields. However, on Christmas Eve 1914 on a field in Flanders, there was Peace on Earth.

Christmas is a truly amazing phenomenon. The day and season perpetuate a miraculous, historical event as an annual presence that challenges an often rough, cruel, and egotistical creature -- the human being -- to become open and amenable to their Creators vision. The great miracle of Christmas continues in the performance of humane acts, moral honesty, and in the spiritual awareness of millions struggling to lead a life of grace.
