the world, the mutual influence between China and the west makes it work. Last,

the merchants make great contribution to its popularity.

圣诞节的当天早晨我故意买了一棵圣诞树，买过圣诞树后我把它放在了我的桌兜里，下课了我把树立起来浇些怪怪水，希忘他早点开花。圣诞老人看到了茂盛的花把礼物塞到我的袜子里;下午我来到了班里看看我的圣诞树开花了吗?

我一看啊!只开了四分之二，当时信心十足的我已经成了一个漏气的皮球了。那时我的同桌田丰说‘不要那么的轻意放气要鼓起勇气，信心十足的面对每一个问题。’我说‘谢谢你，让我再一次的鼓起了勇气。’我上课的时候总是忐忑不安让老师发现了好几次;到了第三节课快下课的时候我的圣诞树终于开花了。我那时高兴极了;我坐车回家，回到家后玩了会儿电脑看了会儿电视，妈妈叫我睡觉我说‘睡不着’妈妈说‘你不睡觉圣诞老人不给你礼物了’我说‘我马上睡’;早上我一看那里有我喜欢的洋娃娃。后来我才知道是妈妈送我的洋娃娃。

Now, the new term begins. I live the life normal as before. Every morning, I get up at 6:30. After washing, I eat breakfast at home. My mother always cooks delicious and nutritious breakfast for me.

I usually have Chinese, math, English and other subjects. I go home at noon and have a short rest at home. Classes are over at 5:30. I usually play at school for a while and then go home. At night, I usually finish my homework and then watch TV. About 10:00, I go to bed. This is my all day.

雨，悄然来临。风吹着红叶在空中飘舞，似一只只迎着风翩翩起舞的羽蝶。就在这雨雪霏霏的冬日里，圣诞节到来了。

庆祝圣诞节是必不可少的事——所以今天，我们班在下午即将开展一个庆祝圣诞的活动!

十二点，一点，两点……哇，终于盼到了活动的到来。两位主持人“西瓜” 和“充充”站到了讲台上，为大家详细介绍了圣诞节的资料。我们将桌椅摆到了教室两侧，中间留出了一块空地。“西瓜”她们下台后，小茹和婷婷走上去，“接下来是游戏时间，第一个游戏——抢凳子!”小茹温文的声音萦绕耳畔。“有请……”他点了几位“嘉宾”,游戏立刻就要开始了。

音乐声响起，五人同时开始绕着四张椅子行走，第一轮压力不大，城城一直是面带笑容，其它同学也不算紧张。突然音乐声不见了，除了戴戴反应慢了半拍以外大家都早有预料了。

二、三、四轮同样很激烈，最后只剩下城城和铧铧啦。两人目光在空中碰撞在一起，仿佛已经发起了战斗，空气中弥漫着浓浓的火药味。城城在用锐利的眼神警告小铧：“胜利是我的”而小铧则是在捍卫他的尊严。

熟悉的音乐再次响起，两人都有随时坐下的准备，接下来是心理的考验，对峙着，成功则是一举成功，失败就会功亏一篑。“哈”“嘿”“嘭”最终城城以着超强的心理打败了对手。

接下来的活动也很精彩。到了换礼物的时间了。我希望能换到一个好礼物!真是让人期待啊!

恩!后来我也抽到了一个让人羡慕的礼物。

这次的圣诞节真快乐!小学的最后一个圣诞节!祝老师、同学们快快乐乐每一天!

那是圣诞前的一天，在一所大商店里，售货员都忙着为那些渴望购物的顾客服务。

在一个柜台前，一位老太太在挑选手套：红色的是买给她儿媳的;淡蓝色的是买给她侄女的;粉红色的是买给她孙女的，绿色的是买给她妹妹的，等她将所有她要买的选好的时候，柜台上已放满了各种颜色、大小不一的手套。

最后女售货员开了发票，疲乏地说了声“非常感谢，太太”，正要转向下一个顾客时，老太太突然叫了起来，“哦，我差点忘了……”“还要别的什么 吗，太太?”女售货员问道。“是的，”老太太说了起来，“我想再买一双，不过我不知道该选什么样的。不知你能不能帮我选选。”售货员的回答是“当然可以， 太太。”老太太接着解释说，她要买的是一双像女售员这样年轻的姑娘戴的手套。她一点也不知该选什么颜色。再说，选什么式样也是个问题。

疲惫的女售货员尽力地帮她选好一双手套。

最后选好的手套被包了起来，也付了钱。当女售货员正要转向另一顾客时，老太太把一个小包裹递给她说：“亲爱的，这是给你的，谢谢你这么耐心。祝你圣诞快乐。”

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.

Christmas Day

圣诞节

Most westerners always celebrate Christmas Day as their major festival, in order to memorialize Jesus.During that time, they always have several days off, so they can enjoy this festival with all their hearts.The children often get together with their friends.The adults are busy with decorating their houses.They also send the postcards with their best wishes to each other. In the streets, there are so many Fathers Christmas sending presents to the passers-by.And everything is on a discount in the supermarkets.Thus the supermarkets are the busiest places.

为了纪念耶稣大部分西方人都庆祝圣诞节作为他们的主要节日。在这段时间里，他们总是有好几天假，所以他们可以全身心的享受这个节日。小孩们经常与他们的朋友聚在一起。大人都忙着装饰他们的房子。他们还互相赠送明信片以及他们对彼此的祝福。 在街上，有很多圣诞老人在派送礼物给路人。超市里面的所有东西都在打折。所以，超市是最忙的地方。

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.

放学回家，我看到奶奶戴着一幅厚厚的老花镜，戴着一对耳机，嘴里念念有词：“A，B，C，D……。”

我放下书包，悄悄地走过去，看见录音机在播放着呢！天哪，奶奶怎么学起英语来了，前两天她还说我在学“鸟语”，怎么现在奶奶学起“鸟语”来了。

我做完作业，要听录音了，我走过去对奶奶说：“奶奶，我要听录音了！”奶奶也许听得太认真了，并没有察觉我在她身边。我大声喊：“奶奶”。这才回过头来，说：“这玩意挺好玩的，你给我买一个吧。”我听了，差点晕过去。奶奶又发话了：“孙女，banana是香蕉的英文，是吗？再借我听听呗。”我唉声叹气，真是哑巴吃黄莲——有苦说不出，只好耐心等待。

吃晚饭了，奶奶还在听录音，听出味道来了，“孙女，苹果是‘啊砰！A，P，P，啊哦，E，啊砰’！”我听了，立刻捧着肚子大笑起来，可奶奶完全不知道是怎么一回事，以为自己读得不错，还高兴地笑哩！

晚饭过后，奶奶以火箭般地速度冲向录音机旁，嘴里冒着一长串的“泡泡。”我尴尬死了，录音机被霸占了。现在又不能听了，只好等到奶奶走了后再听。

我等啊等，奶奶走的时刻终于等到了，“临走”前还对我说：“哎，人老了学什么都难。你可得好好抓紧时间，多学些知识和本领，不要像我这样，等头发白了才后悔莫及！”

她成了我学习的榜样，我也要对自己有信心。敢于设计自己的目标，朝着这个目标奋力前进，加油吧！
