“追求完美的偶像万万岁，才华洋溢的偶像万万岁，十八般武艺每一样都要学，会变魔术又会耍炫。”圣诞联欢会就这样在欢声笑语中落下了帷幕。回想起冀宇童她们精心布置的场景，历历在目……那么，就让我们再在一起回味无穷吧!

这个圣诞节是珍贵的，是美丽的，更是我们在小学阶段度过的最后一个圣诞节，意义非凡!

下午，当我们每个人都走进这间别具一格的教室时，当每个人都激动万分时，当教室里变得热火朝天时，这个“圣诞联欢会”就正式拉开了帷幕。

大家摩拳擦掌，跃跃欲试。一个个搞笑、动听、令我们心情愉悦的节目都令我记忆犹新。我们共同演唱了《逆战》、《爸爸去哪儿》、《我相信》等歌曲;分别表演了形态各异的节目，而最令我喜爱的一个节目，便是吴安迪与乔欣然表演的搞笑小品——《问题不少》。这个小品令我们哄堂大笑，一句句经典台词令我们回味无穷，津津乐道!

如：徐钊一露头，观众朋友准发愁;徐钊二露头，相声从此没看头;徐钊三露头，吓死田间一头牛;徐钊四露头，全国人民齐跳楼。还有学习不突出，文艺不突出，腰肩盘突出，上课不发言，开会不发言，扁导体发严。更有网游如学习，千万不能偏科。高考中考六七门，缺一难进高校门……听着这些幽默的语言，怎能不欢乐?!

而我这位“观众”也变成了“表演者”。与吴安迪、乔欣然和冀宇童共同演唱了TimeZ的《偶像万万岁》。也成为了最后一个压轴表演!

Christmas is a Christian holiday held on December 25 which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. Eastern Orthodox Churches, which use the Julian Calendar to determine feast days, celebrate on January 7 by the Gregorian Calendar. Both dates are merely traditional and neither is thought to be the actual birthdate of Jesus. Christs birth, or nativity, is said to fulfill Old Testament prophecies concerning the coming of a messiah, or savior.

The word Christmas is derived Middle English Christemasse and from Old English Cristes m?sse.[1] It is a contraction meaning "Christs mass". The name of the holiday is often shortened to Xmas because Roman letter "X" resembles the Greek letter (chi), an abbreviation for Christ .

In Western countries, Christmas has become the most economically significant holiday of the year. The popularity of Christmas can be traced in part to its status as a winter festival. Many cultures have their most important holiday in winter because there is less agricultural work to do at this time. Examples of winter festivals that are believed by some to have influenced Christmas include the pre-Christian festivals of Yule and Saturnalia.

In Western culture, the holiday is characterized by the exchange of gifts among friends and family members, some of the gifts being attributed to Santa Claus (also known as Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, and Father Frost). However, various local and regional Christmas traditions are still practiced, despite the widespread influence of American, British and Australian Christmas motifs disseminated by film, popular literature, television, and other media.

the original santa claus, st. nicholas, was born in the ancient southeastern turkish town of lycia early in the fourth century. his generosity was legend, and he was particularly fond of children. we know this primarily through roman accounts of his patronage of youth, which eventually led to his becoming the patron saint of children. throughout the middle ages, and well beyond, he was referred to by many names none of them santa claus.

children today would not at all recognize the st. nick who brought gifts to european children hundreds of years ago except perhaps for his cascading white beard. he made his rounds in full red-and-white bishops robes, complete with twin peaked miter and crooked crozier. he was pulled by no fleet footed reindeer, but coaxed in indolent donkey. and he arrived not late on christmas eve, but on his christian feast day, december 6. the gifts he left beside the hearth were usually small: fruit, nuts, hard candies, wood and clay figurines.

during the protestant reformation of the sixteenth century, st. nicholas was banished from most european countries. replacing him were more secular figures, who in general were not at center stage at that point in history..the dutch kept the st. nicholas tradition alive. as the "protector of sailors," st. nicholas graced the prow of the first dutch ship that arrived in america. and the first church built in new york city was named after him. the dutch brought with them to the new world two christmas items that were quickly americanized.

in sixteenth century holland, children placed wooden shoes by the hearth the night of st. nicholass arrival. the shoes were filled with straw, a meal for the saints gift laden donkey. in return, nicholas would insert a small treat into each clog. in america, the shoe was replaced with the stocking, hung by the chimney.

the dutch spelled st. nicholas "saint nikolass," which in the new world became "sinterklass". later changed to "santa claus".

much of modern day santa claus lore, including the reindeer drawn sleigh, originated in america. dr. clement clarke moore composed "the night before christmas" in 1822, to read to his children on christmas eve. the poem might have remained privately in the moore family if a friend had not mailed a copy of it (without authorial attribution) to a newspaper and became part of the santa legend.

it was in america that santa put on weight. the rosy-cheeked, roly-poly santa is credited to the influential nineteenth-century cartoonist thomas nast. from 1863 until 1886, nast created a series of christmas drawings for harpers weekly. these drawings, executed over twenty years, exhibit a gradual evolution in santa from the pudgy, diminutive, elf-like creature of dr. moores immortal poem to the bearded, potbellied, life-size bell ringer familiar on street corners across america today. nasts cartoons also showed the world how santa spent his entire year constructing toys, checking on childrens behavior, reading their requests for special gifts. his images were incorporated into the santa lore.

santa is known throughout the world in many different names, such as:

saint nikolaas (sinter klaas), from the dutch father christmas, from the english kris kringle, from the germans befana, from the italians bobouschka, from the russians (a grand motherly figure instead of a male)

每年我们都会过各种各样的节日，在这些节日里，我最喜欢圣诞节，因为圣诞老人会给我们送礼物。

12月24日的晚上，我正在写作业，突然传来了妈妈的叫声：“邓卓彧，外面有个人说你写的春联的字好漂亮，你去看看是谁哦?”我慢慢地走到门口，轻轻地打开门，一看，惊讶的叫起来：“哇!圣诞老人!”原来一位穿着一身大红衣服，戴着一副眼镜的圣诞老人从天而降。圣诞老人来送礼物啦!我欣喜而又激动的看着他。只见他从一个大袋子里拿出了好多礼物，我紧张得手都有点发抖。圣诞老人温和的对我说了好多的话，要我好好学习，做一个优秀的孩子!妈妈还给我和圣诞老人照了好多相呢!圣诞老人要走了，他说还要给好多孩子送礼物。我这才知道圣诞老人是多么的辛苦啊!这么冷的冬天，下着雨，出来给那么多的孩子带去了温暖和快乐。

我希望每天都是圣诞节。

Christmas as a grand festival of the west, in addition to the Christmas tree, also cannot little taste delicious food. Before Christmas Turkey dinner is a case card main course, people might do in a microwave oven, the holidays a lot of people now is in outside restaurant to have dinner, merchants can also use the opportunity to make money out of customers, of course, there are many Christmas food, ginger bread, candy, and so on.

In addition, people also give gifts to each other, this is the childrens favorite, often can get lots of presents.

圣诞节作为西方的一个隆重庆祝节日，除了圣诞树，也不能少了好吃美味食品。圣诞节火鸡大餐就是例牌主菜了，以前的人们或许会用微波炉自己做，现在的人们过节好多就是在外面餐馆里用餐了，商家们也会利用机会赚顾客们的钱，当然还有许多圣诞节食品，姜饼、糖果等等了。

除此之外，人们还互相赠送礼物，这是孩子们最喜欢的了，常常能收到许许多多的礼物。

The night when Jesus was born， the shepherd who watched the sheep in the wilderness heard a voice from the sky and told them the news of Jesuss birth. According to the Bible， Jesus came to the world to be king of the world， so the angels passed the news to more people through these shepherds.

Later， people imitated the angels， and on the night of Christmas Eve， they spread the news of Jesuss birth. Until today， it evolved into the good news. Although Christmas Eve is a festival for foreigners， we are also excited about this day.

On Christmas Eve， each family places a Christmas tree according to tradition. That night， the family gathered in the living room， surrounded by Christmas trees singing Christmas songs， exchanging gifts， sharing the joys and sorrows of life， expressing their inner blessings and love， and praying for happiness in the coming year. But we live on campus， we cant go home.

We went back to the dormitory， took out the apple， and replaced it with someone else. Our dormitory bless each other， give us some snacks， we before bed， wash the socks on the bed in the morning found in a sock gift， I know who is on， is my head， I also gave him a gift， our dormitory exchange gifts， we are while they were sleeping when it.....

It is known to all that Christmas Day is on December 25th. It is the

biggest day in the western countries. But not so many people know about the

White Christmas in China. The day before Christmas Day, if it snows, then the

world is in white color. People are happy about that, because they think it

means the happiness and luck. So that’s the meaning of White Christmas. It

always snows a lot on Christmas Eve, because it is in winter in the western

countries. All the families get together and enjoy their moment while watching

the white snow. What an enjoyable atmosphere for a family.

Happiness in Chiristmas Day

快乐圣诞节

Christmas is the biggest festival in the western world, which people all over the Christian countries celebrate. It is on the 25th day of each December.Christians consider it as the birthday of Jesus Christ.But now many customs and habits are beyond religious meaning.The Christmas season begins five or six weeks before the exact holiday.There is always a shopping boom during this period.So its really a happy season for shop owners.

每年的12月25日，所有基督教国家的人们都欢庆圣诞节。一般认为圣诞节是耶稣诞生的日子。但是现在许多风俗和习惯都已超出了宗教意义。圣诞节季节在12月25日之前的5、6个星期就已经开始了。在这一时期总会出现一个购物潮。所以圣诞节确实是店主的快乐节日。

今天是12月25日，圣诞节。

一大早，我和爸爸、妈妈互相说：“Merry Chrismas!”爸爸说，西方国家的人过圣诞节就像我们中国人过春节那样热闹。妈妈立刻打开电脑查阅了“圣诞节”、“圣诞树”和“圣诞老人”的来历及传说。我觉得很好奇，也很有趣!

下午，妈妈带我去漕运广场买圣诞树。那里的人真多呀!妈妈给我买了许多礼物，有会唱“Jingle bell”的玩具圣诞老人，有传说中神奇的魔术棒……虽然妈妈没有给我买圣诞树，但是我已经很满足了。

回到家后，我把礼包打开，把圣诞老人放在地上，只见他边跑边唱“Jingle bell，jingle bell……”我们都被逗乐了。爸爸提醒我说：“礼物要好好珍惜哦!”我说：“好，一定!”

今天，真是一个快乐的圣诞节!

I like Christmas, it is just like our Spring Festival.

我喜欢圣诞节，它就像我们的春节。

Maybe the Spring Festival is much more important and interesting than Christmas, but I like Christmas Day better. Because we can spend time with our friends and classmates during Christmas. When it is snowy,

也许春节比圣诞节更重要和有趣，但我更喜欢圣诞节。因为我们可以花时间与我们的朋友和同学在圣诞节。当下雪的时候，

Christmas becomes much more lovely, just like in fairytales. I can imagine I am in a fairytale, the girl who sold the matches is my friend, the ugly duck becoming more and more beautiful and so on. What a beautiful place! So we can also call Christmas “Snowy Lovely Day.”

圣诞节变得更可爱，就像是童话故事。我可以想像我在一个童话，卖火柴的小女孩是我的朋友，丑小鸭变得越来越漂亮等等。多么美丽的地方!所以我们也可以把圣诞节“雪可爱的一天。”

On Christmas Day, shops are red and green. There are so many Christmas cards, Christmas hats, Christmas dolls and many colourful things. So shops look very beautiful. We can give a card or a doll to our friends and say “Merry Christmas.” By the way, I think studying can also become much more interesting.

在圣诞节，商店是红色和绿色。有许多圣诞卡，圣诞帽，圣诞娃娃和许多丰富多彩的事情。所以商店看起来很漂亮。我们可以提供信用卡或一个玩偶我们的朋友说：“圣诞快乐”。顺便说一下，我想学习也可以变得更加有趣。

Christmas is coming, it also means a new year will come. Let’s study harder to welcome the new year!

教室已经布置好了，就等着圣诞节的到来了，好期待。

"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, windowseverywhere, 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.

Christmas is the time for exchanging presents. Stephen and Niko had been thinking about their Christmas lists (a list of things they wish "Santa"to give them for Christmas) for a long time. I didnt want to ask for anything, but the Stapczynskis were so kind to "force"me make one list as well (Mr. Stapczynski told me if I didnt make one he would chop off my legs). So I wrote down a couple of things that I would like to have, and gave the list to them--sorry, my mistake--to Santa.

Finally, Christmas Eve came. There was a special Christmas service at the church at 6 p.m. It was certainly a very interesting experience for me. The priest started the service reading and sang out extractions from a holy book--The Divine Liturgy. For several times, we would stand up and pray.

Sometimes, the church choir would start singing. The atmosphere was very quiet and holy. Then there was a ceremony called "The Receiving Communion". People waited in line to "receive"a spoonful of food from the priest. It was a very special Christmas tradition. The food was made from bread and wine. The bread represents the body of Jesus, and the wine represents his blood. After this ceremony, the priest had a speech. He reminded us not to forget the true meaning of Christmas, and let Jesus really live inside us--that is, to love the people around us wholeheartedly. I think that no matter if you are a Christian or not, this principle should be part of our lives. After the priest finished his speech, the part that I enjoyed most came: Christmas carols5. Christmas carols are songs that people sing at Christmas, such as "Jingle Bells", "We Wish You a Merry Christmas", "Silent Night"and so on. Some were very merry, others sounded quite holy, but all of them were beautiful. I closed my eyes, and let all the peacefulness and happiness that were in the songs flow through me. What a feeling it was!

We went to sleep earlier that day for we had to get up early on Christmas Day to open our presents. Sure enough, when I was still half-way during a sweet dream, Stephen burst into my room and told me to get up and open presents. There were a huge pile of presents under the Christmas tree, and there was such a mysterious mist shrouding them that made me eager to see what they all were. So one by one, we went through all the presents. Mr. and Mrs. Stapczynski had bought me everything I had written on my Christmas list--and a lot more! I got music CDs, film DVDs, clothes, books I was very happy, and I didnt know how to express my appreciation for what they had done for me.

Stephen and Niko had gotten a lot of presents too, and they had already been trying out their new games!

In the afternoon, we went to Mrs. Stapczynskis brother, Uncle Stans house. They had prepared a marvelous meal for us. A lot of their friends and relatives also came. I saw Stephen and Nikos grandparents, Yiayia and Papou (words of grandma and grandpa in Greek--Mrs. Stapczynskis parents came from Greece, so they like the boys using Greek words to call them). They were very kind to me, and treated me just like one of their family members. We had a very luxurious meal, consisting of turkey, beef, pork, and all sorts of other food.

After the meal, when all the stomachs were full and everyone was feeling drowsy6 from all the food, we just sat around the table and chatted, just like what we Chinese people do at the Spring Festival. After all, Christmas, like the Spring Festival, is a time for us to get away from our busy lives, a time for family gathering, and a time to have some fun.

Ha ha ha, I finally got Christmas, today, I want to spend my five-pointed star.

Class, the teacher sent us the book, I do not know for how many days and so on and so on today, and that the integrity of the discount supermarket today, I forget again and again, a total of four times to forget, but I feel it, and then We put their cents on out, I was 228 five-pointed star, to the later, the teacher wish us a happy holiday, gave us added a 250-pointed star, when we heard the news cheered together.

Suddenly, a male teacher came over and said: Taipan has bought, should we buy, we immediately rushed past, only 20 minutes, so we have to race against time, I immediately rushed into the integrity of the supermarket, ha ha, how not, I most want to buy toilet did not, certainly was Taipan away, so sad, ah, I have nothing to buy. Suddenly, I saw a lot of fun things, finally I bought a pen, a hand clasp and a Spiderman.

Favorite things to buy, I went back to the classroom, playing up.

Although I did not get my favorite thing, but I still got happy.

哈哈哈，我终于等到了圣诞节了，在今天，我要把我的五角星给花光。

上课了，老师把本子发给了我们，我不知为了等今天等了多少天，而且，诚信超市在今天打折，我算了一遍又一遍，总共算了4遍，可是我觉的可以了，然后我们便把自己的分报了出来，我的是228个五角星，到了后来，老师祝我们节日快乐，又给我们加了250个五角星，当大家听到这个消息后，一齐欢呼起来。

突然，一个男老师走过来说：大班已经买好了，应该我们去买了，我们立马冲了过去，只有20分钟，所以我们要争分夺秒，我立马冲进了诚信超市，哈哈，怎么没有了，我最想买的马桶没了，肯定被大班拿走了，好悲哀啊，我也没什么好买了。突然，我又看到了很多好玩的东西，最后我买了一支笔，一个手扣和一个蜘蛛侠。

买了心爱的东西，我便回了教室，玩了起来。

虽然我没有买到我最喜欢的东西，但是我还是得到了快乐。

it was one of the last days before christmas, and the as sistants in the large store had their hands full serving eager christmas shoppers.

at one counter an old lady was choosing gloves red ones for her daugher in law, light blue ones for her niece, pink ones for her grand daughter, green ones for her sister and by the time she had found what she wanted, the counter was covered with pairs of all colors and sizes.

when the salesgirl had finally written out the bill and was about to turn to the next customer with a tired voice. "thank you very much, madam," the old lady suddenly cried out, "oh, i almost forgot..."——"anything else, madam?" said the girl, "yes," began the old lady, "id like to buy another pair, but i m not quite sure about what exactly i should cloose. i wonder if you could help me." "certainly, madam", was the girls reply. the old lady then went on to explain that what she was looking for was a pair of gloves for a girl of her age. she was not at ail sure what color to choose, and the design was a problem too.

the tired girl did her best to help the old lady make up her mind, showing her ail kinds of gloves.

at last the chosen pair of gloves were wrapped up and paid for as well, and as the girl was about to turn to the next customer, the old lady handed her a little parcel and said, "these now, dear, these are for you and thank you for being so patient. i do hope you have a merry christmas !"

Chritmas is the day that Jesus Christ was born. people in the world celebrate and worship this day in his honor. The santa claus will come out and send presents for children. Christmas cards and decorated trees are all over the place. The carolling of Christmas songs echo through the air. I am not a Chirstian， but I also enjoy the atmosphere of Chrismas. I wish everybody have a merry Chirismas.

Dear teacher,

Time flies, sun and moon, now I have been in the sixth grade, looking back at those who have given us care and care of the teacher, they are still as kind. [] Teacher, you are a hard gardener, tirelessly cultivating the flowers of the motherland; Teacher, you are the disseminator of knowledge, to pass new knowledge to us; Teacher, you are like chalk, sacrifice themselves, to leave us knowledge, you are how great ah!

Teacher, without your careful cultivation, I could not have become a man of knowledge. You gave me the future. You want your students to be "better than blue" and have a bright future. Teacher, you regardless of their own fatigue to give us the day class, in the evening to prepare lesson plans, correcting homework, the rest of the time is very few. We students are ashamed of ourselves. As the saying goes, the profession of a teacher lies in "burning oneself, illuminating others", which is the so called contribution of every teacher to students.

Teacher, you are like an umbrella, in our need to you, you are always fearless to stand in front of us, for us shelter; When the weather is cold, you tell us to wrap up warmly so that we wont catch cold. When we cant do a certain problem, you will patiently explain to us, until we understand; When we need comfort, you always use the kind tone to comfort us?

Teacher, you are like the star in my heart. Winter to spring, although I have grown up, but the star is still in my heart shining bright, purify my heart, help me to find the secret of confidence and success, help me to find the truth.

Ah, teacher! You were our second parent, and For those few weeks, I felt your kindness and your comfort. The teachers love, like a warm current, always warm my heart, the teachers love, like a blazing flame to illuminate my learning future, I will never forget.

advance

Salute!
