the name christmas is short for "christs mass". a mass is a kind of church service. christmas is a religious festival. it is the day we cele

ate as the birthday of jesus. there are special christmas services in christian churches all over the world. but many of the festivities of christmas do not have anything to do with religion. exchanging gifts and sending christmas cards are the modern ways of celeating the christmas in the world.

before jesus births, joseph and mary came to quirnius was governing syria. so all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. joseph also went up out of galilee, out of the city of nazareth, into judea, to the city of david, which is called bethlehem, because he was of the house and of the lineage of david, to be registered with mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. so it was that while they were there, the days were completed for her to bedelivered. and sheought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

尊敬的老师，亲爱的同学们：

大家好！我今天走上讲台参加竞选英语代表职务，我相信凭着我的勇气我一定可以的，因为我已经下了这个决心勇于拼搏的决心，这次演讲可能也就是下次就职演说。

我叫孟家玥，是一个有耐心的学生，这里的耐心是指有一次文哲在训练老师给我吩咐我一个任务让我给他们说一下作业。文哲突然让我给想起了一个事情，让我去帮她值班我就去了我一直等到六点半我才走了，这就是我比较有耐心的学生，对于我来说英语这方面我比我们班里的每一个人都了解，我还知道在国际音标里的元音有多少个，辅音有多少个……这些我都已经会背了。假如这次我竞选英语课代表竞选成功的话，我都会用一颗平常的心，温柔的心来对待。有了“宽容之心”，我才使胸怀宽广，虚怀若谷，虚心接受同学的意见乐于帮助他人，只有把英语搞好这才是最关键的。如果我这次竞选能成功的话我一定要把我以前坏的毛病去改一改，无论竞选成功还是没有成功我都会去改的。我要给同学们做一个好的榜样。

对待英语课上的说话，跑坐位。我又该如何做呢？首先，我认为上英语课必须要做到每个人管好自己，这是大关键，我觉得我制定的实施方案是可以的。  也许有时候我的胆子可能小了点，但是我相信有了同学们对我的信任，我一定会改掉自己的缺点，从而完善我以前的面目。

希望大家支持我！

Is there anyway.

Remember one night, I was in a language the basic training, stumped by a question and she ran and asked my father: "dad, this topic in the flesh in the text said what mean?" After dad thought for a long time said: "this is not very clear to me, you still to look at the computer!" Then I thought to myself: this topic how so difficult? Even give up my dad. "And then, I will go online to find, as a result, let me check the best answer," flesh "is" the human body. In this way, my problem is solved.

In addition, I also like playing computer games, so, after I finish my homework every day, I can play for a while, but I have to remind everybody is, playing computer games, but dont be hidden, it can only be as a relaxation after the completion of a job, playing on the computer at the same time should pay attention to: protect good vision; Computer disease prevention...

我有许许多多的爱好，其中，我最喜欢的爱好是玩电脑。

玩电脑其实有许多的好处，不仅在学习上给了我很多帮助，而且在生活当中也给我很多帮助。你瞧：不会的问题可以在电脑上查找;最近几天的天气情况可以在电脑上查看;可以在电脑上订购物品，既便宜也省事;可以在电脑上看电视、看电影;还可以在电脑上打游戏……反正是举不胜举。

记得有一天晚上，我在做语文《基础训练》时，被一道题目给难倒了，就跑去问爸爸：“爸爸，这个题目里的‘血肉’在课文中表示什么意思?”爸爸想了很久之后说：“这我也不是很清楚，你还是去查看一下电脑吧!”当时我心里想：这题目怎么这么难啊?居然都把我老爸给难倒了。”然后，我就上网去查找，结果让我查到了最佳答案，“血肉”表示的是“人的身躯”。这样一来，我的问题就迎刃而解了。

另外，我还喜欢玩电脑游戏，所以，每天我做完作业之后，我可以小玩一会儿，不过，我得提醒大家的是，玩电脑游戏时，可千万不能上隐，那只能是作为在作业完成之后的一种放松，同时玩电脑时要注意：保护好视力;预防电脑病……

这就是我的爱好??玩电脑。

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)

The westerners send each other christmas cards for greetings while the chinese people pay a call on each other。

nowadays, some of the chinese youth has begun to celebrate christmas, following the example of the westerners. Perhaps they do so just for fun and out of curiosity。

Although it is generally agreed that the Christmas tree in its current form came from Germany in the early 19th century, the tradition of decorating a tree to mark winter celebrations dates back hundreds of years to Roman times, when they used to decorate evergreen trees with small pieces of metal to celebrate Saturnalia.

In medieval times the Paradise Play was performed every year on 24 December. This depicted the creation of Man and the fall of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden and always included an evergreen hung with apples which represented the apple tree of temptation.

There is a legend that St Boniface, an English monk, came upon a group of pagans gathered around an oak tree who were preparing to sacrifice a child to the God Thor. In order to stop the sacrifice, and save the childs life, St Boniface is said to have felled the tree with one blow of his fist. Later on, a fir tree grew in place of the oak and this, St Boniface told the pagans, was the Tree of Life and represented the Christ Child.

Legend also suggests that, in the late 16th century, Martin Luther (the founder of the Protestant religion) was the first to decorate an indoor tree with candles when he attempted to recreate the stars shining over a forest of evergreens.

The first mention of decorated trees being taken indoors came in 1605 in Germany - a country with a long Christmas tree history! The trees were initially decorated with fruit and sweets together with hand made objects such as quilled snowflakes and stars. German Christmas Markets began to sell shaped gingerbreads and wax ornaments which people bought as souvenirs of the fair and took home to hang on their tree.

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 many experiments took place 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!

This all changed following the war, and large trees were erected in many public places to celebrate Christmas. The most famous of these is the tree in Trafalgar Square, London which is an annual gift from the Norwegian government to give thanks for the help they received from Britain during the war.

A month ago, the golden child English cram school held a Christmas activities.

圣诞老人的传说在数千年前的斯堪的纳维亚半岛即出现。北欧神话中司智慧，艺术，诗词，战争的奥丁神，寒冬时节，骑上他那八脚马坐骑驰骋于天涯海角，惩恶扬善，分发礼物。与此同时，其子雷神着红衣以闪电为武器与冰雪诸神昏天黑地恶战一场，最终战胜寒冷。据异教传说，圣诞老人为奥丁神后裔。也有传说称圣诞老人由圣·尼古拉而来，所以圣诞老人也称St.Nicholas.因这些故事大多弘扬基督精神，其出处，故事情节大多被淡忘，然而圣诞老人却永驻人们精神世界。

每年圣诞日，圣诞老人骑在白羊星座上，圣童手持圣诞树降临人间，随着世事变迁，作家和艺术家开始把圣诞老人描述成我们今日熟悉的着红装，留白胡子的形象。同时不同的国度和文化对圣诞老人也有了不同的解释。在德国，传说他扮成圣童把坚果和苹果放在孩子们鞋里。他乘双轮马车四处漫游，观察人们的行为，尤其是小孩，如果表现好，将会得到苹果、坚果、糖等诸多奖品。坏孩子则得一鞭子。家长们灵机一动纷纷采用此传说来鼓励孩子们听话。大大超过了新年，成为一个全民的节日。圣诞老人已经成为圣诞节最受喜爱的象征和传统。他赶 着驯鹿，拉着装满玩具和礼物的雪橇挨家挨户给每个孩子送礼物的快乐老精灵的形象已深深地留在人们的记忆中。

11世纪末来自意大利的宗教士兵将Nicholas圣人的遗物带回意大利，并在港口城市Bari建造了一座教堂来纪念他。很快世界各地的基督教徒纷至沓来朝圣这位圣人。这些朝圣者将圣人Nicholas的故事带回他们的本土，所以有关圣诞老人的传说在各个国家都各具特色。

12世纪欧洲出现了圣人Nicholas纪念日，以互赠礼物和慈善活动为主。德国、法国、荷兰则将12月6日作为宗教纪念日，给孩子和穷人们赠送礼物。

荷兰殖民者来到美洲时，将他们的Sintirklass主教也带了去，Sintirklass身着红袈裟，骑着一匹白马。Sintirklass的美国形象后来逐渐演变成一个快乐的老精灵。起初美国作家华盛顿.欧文在他的喜剧《纽约的历史》中将他描述成一个又圆又胖的荷兰老人。1823年，诗人Clement Moore在他的诗歌《St.Nicholas印象》中继续将Sintirklass/Saint Nicholas的形象戏剧化，这就是各位在本篇开头看到的圣诞老人。

19世纪60年代卡通制作者Thomas Nash画了一幅胖胖的、慈祥的圣诞老人作为《Harper的一周》的插图。这个圣诞老人的形象开始深深地扎根于美国人民的脑海中。随着时间的推移，圣诞老人的形象传回欧洲，传到南美洲，传遍世界各地。

许多国家都保存了他们自己有关圣诞老人的风俗和传说。在荷兰的传说中，圣诞老人Sintirklass还带了一个叫Black Peter的助手，乘着一艘船于12月6日来到。他带着一本大书，书中描述了所有荷兰小孩在过去一年中的表现。表现好的小孩就送礼物给他们，不好的小孩便让他的助手带走。

德国的圣诞老人也带着一个叫做Knecht Ruprecht、Krampus或Pelzebock的助手，肩上背着个装着礼物的大袋子，手上拿着一根棍子。好孩子可收到他的礼物，顽皮的孩子却要给教训几棍子。

意大利的圣诞老人叫La Befana ;法国的圣诞老人叫Father Christmas或Pere Noel ;瑞士的圣诞老人叫Christkindl或Christ Child;斯勘的纳维亚地区的圣诞人叫julenisse 或 juletomte ;而英国的圣诞老人和法国一样也叫Father Christmas(圣诞之父)，他的形象比其它圣诞老人更庄严，更清瘦一些。北美的圣诞老人便是乘着驯鹿拉的雪橇来给孩子们送礼物的。

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!
