history tells us that the origin of santa claus begins in the 4th century with saint nicholas, bishop of myra (an area in present day turkey). one of the legends tells about that he acquired a fortune when his parents died while he was still in his teens. by nature st.nicholas was a generous and honest man, particularly devoted to children. he also cared deeply for the poor. he brought various gifts, money and other useful items to the houses of the poor. he did this at night, and in secrecy, so that no one knew, as he wanted no glory, he just wanted to help people. he became widely known for his generosity.
there is one famous legend about saint nicholas. the story tells of nicholas hearing one day of three beautiful sisters who lived in a miserable hut on the edge of myra. the three sisters were very poor. they could barely earn enough to keep themselves and their old mother from starving to death. when nicholas heard of their plight, he was very concerned. he decided to do something to help them.
one night, when everyone was asleep, nicholas crept through the streets to the edge of town. quietly, he tiptoed up to the hut where the three sisters lived. he climbed onto the roof and dropped three bags of gold through the hole in the roof where the smoke from the fire came out. now it so happened that the three sisters has washed their stockings before they went to bed. the stockings has been hung by the fire to dry. when nicholas dropped the gold through the smoke hole, each bag of gold fell into a stocking.
the three sisters were overjoyed to find three bags of gold in their stockings when they woke up the next morning. soon, the story began to spread. other people began to hang up stockings in the hope of finding bags of gold when they woke up in the morning. from this legend sprang the custom of hanging stockings up by the chimney on christmas eve. over the years, saint nicholas became associated with christmas.
after his death around 350 a.d. he was buried in myra, but in 1087 italian sailors purportedly stole his remains and removed them to bari, italy, greatly increasing st. nicholas popularity throughout europe. his kindness and reputation for generosity and love for children gave rise to claims that he could perform miracles and devotion to him increased. st. nicholas became the patron saint of russia, where he was famous for his red cape, flowing white beard, and bishops mitre. in greece, he is the patron saint of sailors; in france he was the patron of lawyers, and in belgium the patron of children and travelers. the dutch kept the legend of st. nicholas alive. in 16th century holland, dutch children would place their wooden shoes by the hearth in hopes that they would be filled with a treat and goodies.

Around Christmas every year, Chinese people in the vast land of China seem to be very excited. They paste Santa Claus, dress up Christmas trees, send Christmas cards and spray snow... People say that this is the performance of young peoples pursuit of fashion, but we might as well think about it carefully. Is that all? Whos Christmas? This question is thought-provoking.
In the process of Chinas development, due to the closed door policy of feudal rulers, such a great country gradually could not keep up with the pace of world progress, so that China could not keep pace with the world. Gradually, the Western powers saw the fat meat of China, forcibly entered China and occupied the north and south of China. People gradually woke up, learned a lesson and said: we should learn from advanced countries. Learn from their advanced culture and advanced scientific and technological level. So, what exactly does "culture" mean? Many people dont know. Therefore, foreign countries launched cultural aggression against the ignorant Chinese people and forced us to accept their beliefs together. However, how many people really understand the origin of Christmas? Christmas is the day when most Christians around the world commemorate the birth of Jesus, but many Christmas celebrations have nothing to do with religion. Exchanging gifts and sending Christmas cards make Christmas a day of universal celebration.
What is the biggest festival for the Chinese people? You will not hesitate to answer: Spring Festival! Everyone thinks so. However, looking ahead, how many people are reveling for the arrival of the Spring Festival?? Not many, even very few, but what about people crazy about Christmas?? beyond count. Seeing this tragedy, lets think: whose holiday is Christmas? Is it celebrated in other countries during our Spring Festival? Why do we celebrate the festival? This is because we dont know enough about the splendid culture of the motherland. If we deeply understand the motherland, we will be proud of the motherland, we will stand up, carry forward our own traditional culture, and say to the world, "I am the descendant of the dragon, I love China. I want to celebrate our own traditional festivals!"

Memories of Christmas, it is very good.
Remember when I was a child, when my father told me the story of the Santa Claus, I still some dubious, but I am still on Christmas night, my favorite one with the little bear style cotton socks in under the pillow, and then to sleep with aflame mood.
The second day early in the morning, I cant wait to touch touch the sock. Yi? How hard? A gift? I took out the contents, is a lovely small Christmas card and a copy of my favorite "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck" picture books! Still in bed, I opened the card with excitement, it is fine if the font of spider silk, write: merry Christmas! It was signed Santa Claus. At that moment, surprise and ecstasy woven into a beautiful music ripples in my heart.
Came to the school, naive I tell it to all the kids, they all stared at me with eyes and envy, classmate month also told me: "you are lucky oh! I didnt get what gift from Santa Claus!" "Father speak only very good, very lovely child is a gift!" Im proud to say that sweet as honey in my heart.

Until the third grade, the secret was finally I found out that my dad was "Santa Claus", I got the gift is not the old man ride a deer to things, but the father of my infinite love!

They are all dressed up in the festival, and they are playing with merry Christmas songs. Its so busy!
To walk street, we see in front of a stage, there are a lot of people under the platform, people on the platform to throw down the safe fruit, people under the platform quickly to grab, I also grab. The first time I did not grab, the second time I grabbed one, the third time I grabbed one, I and my mother one person as a souvenir.
We went to the department store again and first saw a tall Christmas tree and a glowing wall". Its a sea of people here, and there are lots of funny toys. I cant move my eyes so fast.

Every year December 25th is Christmas day, on this day, most people think of gifts, elk, Christmas tree and Santa Claus, but few people think about the real meaning of Christmas: bring love and joy to others.
Written by Charles Dickens a Christmas carol is a good example: one old man called scrooge, he didnt smile, and very stingy, just want to himself, he is not friendly to anyone. He only CARES about how he makes more money, and he hates Christmas very much. On a Christmas Eve, he saw the dead of Jacob marley, the lost business partner, who was the same man as scrooge, so he was punished after his death. He warned scrooge to change himself or be punished. He also told scrooge to be ready for three spirits to visit him. That night, three elves actually visited scrooge. In the first place, the spirit of Christmas past brought scrooge back to his childhood, and made him look back on the happy days of his childhood. Then, the spirit of Christmas now takes him to see how other people celebrate Christmas, even the poor, happy and happy. Finally, the spirit of the future of Christmas brings him into the future. Scrooge sees himself dead, but everyone doesnt care. Scrooge was so frightened that he awoke from his sleep to discover that it was the morning of Christmas. Scruzzi decided to change himself and promised to be a good man. He happily celebrates Christmas with his relatives and presents gifts to the people who need them. Now he was kind and warm to everyone, bringing love and joy to every place he visited.
This is the spirit of Christmas!

I like Christmas, it is just like our Spring Festival.
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, 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.”
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.
Christmas is coming, it also means a new year will come. Let’s study harder to welcome the new year!

"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 bee 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 e. 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 edy 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.

There are many festivals in a year. There are Chinese traditional festivals, which belong to our festival - childrens day, may, eleven, and other legal holidays. But what I like most is not the holidays, but Christmas.
Christmas is a festival for all the Christian countries in the world to commemorate the birth of the Lord of the Lord. Although it is not valued by the Chinese, we can still see the changes that Christmas brings to life. First of all, some businesses began to sell Christmas products. Shops were full of Christmas related products: reindeer, Santa Claus toys! They became popular products and loved by consumers. Secondly, the school has also carried out a lot of Christmas activities, what to guess gifts, Christmas party, give people a strong holiday atmosphere. Christmas is coming in so slowly.
It seems to me that Christmas is such an atmosphere and a mysterious holiday. And it also inspires me to cherish the time, only once a year. Once every time, we have grown up one year old again.

A friend told me that Christmas was coming.
Really, Im a little surprised. It seems that I dont remember the date for a long time. I only know that after today, tomorrow will arrive. Christmas sounds like a world dressed up with snow. Its really a word that has been far away from me. I just remember that on Christmas Eve of one year, my friends and I went crazy friendly. That should be the most worry free day! The mood at that time has been forgotten, and the faces of those people have been blurred. Later, they just sent greeting cards to each other. Now, they dont even bother to send greeting cards.
The more people grow up, the more boring they will really be. I feel it from the bottom of my heart.
The street has been filled with the smell of Christmas. The picture of Santa Claus is hanging everywhere. Unfortunately, there is no snow. I remember that in those fairy tales, the most fascinating scene is snow. Think about it. In such a small town, Santa wont come either. Because wont he be very busy? I really want to know how he feels when he drives a sleigh and sings when Im busy. Well, it should be very interesting.
The more lonely people are, the more they like fantasy. They always hope to fill it.
A good friend said that this will be the last Christmas she spent with us. Just the words written with a pen make me sad. I hate the plot in the novel taking place in reality. I hate those separations, but why do they happen again and again? Santa Claus, if you can, can you realize my wish and make each others path clearer, but isnt the reality a big circle of separation and meeting?
How many angels do people meet when they travel around the world?
December 25, Christmas. Im afraid Ill forget, and I hope I forget. This contradiction makes me at a loss. Today is the winter solstice, with the shortest day and the longest night. I triggered the association of this Christmas in the light of the night. Really, if I forget. So, I wish everyone a happy Christmas first!
