写作背景
《圣诞颂歌》是英国大作家狄更斯创作的一系列圣诞故事中最著名的一篇，被称为“有史以来第二个最伟大 的圣诞故事”（第一个最伟大的圣诞故事无疑是指福音书中记载的耶稣基督诞生的故事）。《圣诞颂歌》问世 160年来，千百万人为之陶醉，受其鼓舞。许许多多的版本和译本以及根据它改编的舞台、电视、电影剧本层出 不穷。然而鲜为人知的是，这个“欢快、辉煌的”的圣诞故事竟产生于作家创作生涯的一个阴郁时期。狄更斯当 时濒临破产，情绪极为低落，他写作此书原是为了摆脱债务（他称之为“一个小小的图谋”），但很快便发生了 不可思议的变化。当他在写自己喜爱的圣诞故事时，沮丧的情绪一扫而光。《圣诞颂歌》成了作家一项出自爱心 的劳作。狄更斯曾谈到他是怎样在创作时“哭泣、大笑、又哭泣”的，他从未怀疑过，《圣诞颂歌》会受人喜爱， 但此书带来的压倒一切的轰动效应，却是他和出版商都始料未及的。狄更斯后来回忆道，第一版的6000册在圣诞 节前夜销售一空，后来不断重印，仍供不应求，一时颇有“英伦纸贵”之势。这种现象在维多利亚时代的图书市 场上是极为罕见的。在某种意义上，《圣诞颂歌》永远地改变了作家的一生。1843年以后，在短短几年间，狄更 斯又发表了若干与圣诞节有关的中篇小说，如《古教堂的钟声》等。
1843年的伦敦是个相当肮脏的城市。房屋拥挤，人们用煤火取暖(斯克鲁奇在办公室就是这样取暖的)。煤烟 同低空的云混在一起，所产生的浓雾远远比今天的要严重。但如果没有雾，而烟尘能够上升的话，寒冷的天气带 来的是更洁净的空气——当时没有小汽车、卡车和以燃油为动力的引擎——雪也是洁白而干净的。

Yet something seemed different that day when I entered it for the first time. My job was to make classroom visits and encourage implementing a training program focusing on language arts， ideas that would empower students to feel good about themselves and take charge of their lives.Donna was one of the volunteer teachers in this project.I sat in the back and watched. All the students were working on the task，filling their notebook paper with thoughts and ideas. A student next to me was filling her page with "I can’t kick the soccer ball." "I can't do long division with more than three numerals." Her page was half full and she showed no signs of letting up. I walked down the row glancing at students ’papers. Everyone was writing down things they couldn't do.By this time the activity engaged my curiosity. I decided to check with the teacher to see what was going on but I noticed she too was busy writing "I can't get John’s mother to come for a teacher conference." "I can't get my daughter to put gas in the car." "I can't…”Curious and puzzled about what they were doing， I returned to my seat and continued my observations.Students wrote for another ten minutes. They were then instructed to fold the papers in half and bring them to the front. They placed their “I Can’t”statements into all empty shoe boxes. Then Donna added hers. She put the lid on the box， tucked it under her arm and headed out the door and down the hall.Students followed her. I followed the students. Half way down the hall way， Donna entered the custodian’s room， came out with a shovel， and marched the students out to the farthest corner of the playground. There they began to dig. They were going to bury their "I Cants"!The digging took over then minutes with dirt. The box of "I Cants" was placed at the bottom of the hole and then quickly covered with dirt. Students stood around the freshly dug grave. At this point Donna announced， "Boys and girls， please join hands and bow your heads." They quickly formed a circle around the grave.They lowered their heads and waited. Donna delivered the eulogy."Friends， we gathered here today to honor the memory of“I Can't”.While he was with us on earth， he touched the lives of everyone， some more than others. We have provided “I Can't”with a final resting place and a headstone that contains his epitaph. He is survived by his brothers and sisters，‘I Can’，‘I Will’，and‘I'm Going to’.They are not as well known as their famous relative and are certainly not as strong and powerful. Perhaps some day， with your help， they will make an even bigger mark on the world. May ‘I Can't’ rest in peace and may everyone present pick up their lives and move forward in his absence. Amen."According to the passage， which of the following statements is INCORRECT?A. Donna was a volunteer teacher of the training program.B. The author knew what was going to happen when he/she entered the classroom.C. Donna＇s fourth grade classroom appeared to be traditional， resembling many others the author had seen in the past.D. Everyone， regardless of gender， age， and occupation， may encounter many "I cants" in life.二、简答题1、用四种方法引入Christmas的课文，并举例。
The story of Santa Claus
然而，可能有许多人会有点疑惑，圣诞节的代表人物竟是圣诞老人，而不是耶稣。事实上，这样说也不为过：在世界上许多地方，圣诞老人要比赋予该节日名称的基督还更出名。
But how did the fat man in the Coca-Cola red-and-white suit become the symbol of Christmas? The truth is that like the Christmas story itself, the story of Saint Nicholas is a composite of history, myth, and legend.
16世纪宗教改革运动以后，对尼古拉的膜拜便在多数欧洲新教国家销声匿迹了。但是有关他的传说却跟一个北欧民间故事结合了起来，故事中有位魔术师，他爱惩罚顽皮的孩子，并送礼物奖励好孩子。在英格兰，尼古拉成为家喻户晓的圣诞节之父。而在荷兰，圣人尼古拉的名声依旧以“Sinterklaas”的名字流传。
In the 17th century, Dutch colonists took this tradition with them to America. Later, Sinterklaas was adopted by the English-speaking majority as “Santa Claus.” The resulting image of a “jolly old elf” driving a sleigh with “eight tiny reindeer” crystallized in the 19th century. That was when Clement Moore wrote the now-famous poem “A Visit From Saint Nick.” And the red-and-white suit? That was created by a Coca-Cola adman in the 1930s.
圣诞老人 英文作文
圣诞老人英文作文英文：As Christmas is approaching, the figure of Santa Claus becomes more and more prominent. Many people believe in Santa Claus and look forward to his arrival on Christmas Eve. But who is Santa Claus? Where did he come from? Let me tell you the story of Santa Claus in both English and Chinese.According to the legend, Santa Claus is a jolly old man who lives at the North Pole with his wife and a group of elves who help him make toys. He wears a red suit and hat with white fur trim, and he has a long white beard. On Christmas Eve, he loads his sleigh with toys and flies around the world delivering them to children. He enters houses through the chimney and leaves presents under the Christmas tree.But where did this legend come from? The story of SantaClaus is based on the life of Saint Nicholas, a Christian bishop who lived in the fourth century in what is now Turkey. Saint Nicholas was known for his generosity and kindness, and he became the patron saint of children. Over time, his story was adapted and embellished, and he became the figure we know today as Santa Claus.中文：随着圣诞节的临近，圣诞老人的形象变得越来越突出。

小学英语安徒生童话系列二TheStorks阅读素材
the Storksby Hans Christian Andersen（1838）ON the last house in a little village the storks hadbuilt a nest，and the mother stork sat in it with herfour young ones，who stre tched out their necksand pointed their black beaks，which had not y etturned red like those of the parent birds. A little wayoff，on t he edge of the roof，stood the fatherstork，quite upright and stif f；not liking to bequite idle，he drew up one leg，and stood on theother，so still that it seemed almost as if he were carved in wood. “It must look very grand，”thought he，“for my wife to have a sentry guarding her nest. They do not know that I am herhusband；they will think I have been commanded to s tand here，which is quite aristocratic；”and so he continued standin g on one leg.In the street below were a number of children at play，and when t hey caught sight of thestorks，one of the boldest amongst the boys began to sing a song about them，and verysoon he was joined by the rest. These are the words of the song，but each only sang wha t hecould remember of them in his own way.“S tork，stork，fly away，Stand not on one leg，I pray，See your wife is in her nest，Withher little ones at rest. they will hang one，And fry another；They will shoot a third，And roasthis brother.”“Just hear what those boys are singing，”said the young storks；“they say we shall behanged and roasted.”“Never mind what they say；you need not listen，”said the mother. “They can do noharm.”But the boys went on singing and pointing at the storks，and mocki ng at them，excepting one of the boys whose name was Peter；he said it was a shame to make fun ofanimals，and would not join with them at all . The mother stork comforted her young ones，and told them not to mind. “See，”she said，“How quiet your father stands，although he isonly on one leg.”“But we are very much frightened，”said the young storks，and th ey drew back theirheads into the nests.the next day when the children were playing together，and saw the storks，they sang thesong again—“they will hang one，And roast another.”“Shall we be hanged and roasted？”asked the young storks.“No，certainly not，”said the mother. “I will teach you to fly，and when you have learnt，we will fly into the meadows，and pay a visit to the frogs，who will bow themselves to us inthe water，and cry 'Croak，croak，' and then we shall eat them up；that will be fun.”“And what next？”asked the young storks.“then，”replied the mother，“all the storks in the country will assemble together，and gothroug h their autumn manoeuvres，so that it is very important for every one to know how tofly properly. If they do not，the general will thrust them through with his beak，and kill them.Therefore you musttake pains and learn，so as to be ready when the drilling begins .”“then we may be killed after all，as the boys say；and hark！t hey are singing again.”“Listen to me，and not to them，”said the mother stork. “After the GREat review is over，we shall fly away to warm countries far from hence，where there ar e mountains and forests. ToEgypt，where we shall see three-cornered houses built of stone，with pointed tops that reachnearly to the cl ouds. They are called Pyramids，and are older than a stork could i magine；andin that country，there is a river that overflows its ba nks，and then goes back，leavingnothing but mire；there we can wa lk about，and eat frogs in abundance.”“Oh，o—h！”cried the young storks.“Yes，it is a delightful place；there is nothing to do all d ay long but eat，and while weare so well off out there，in this country there will not be a single GREen leaf on the trees，and the weather will be so cold that the clouds will freeze，and fall on the earth in little whiterags.”The stork meant snow，but she could not explain it in any other way.“Will the naughty boys freeze and fall in pieces？” asked the young storks.“No， they will not freeze and fall into pieces，” said the mother，“but they will be very cold， and be obliged to sit all day in a dark， gloomy room，while we shall be flying about in foreign lands， where there are blooming flowers and warm sunshine.”Time passed on， and the young storks GREw so large that they could stand upright in the nest and look about them. The father brought them， every day，beautiful frogs， little snakes， and all kinds of stork-dainties that he could find. And then， how funny it was to see the tricks he would perform to amuse them. Hewould lay his head quite round over his tail， and clatter with his beak， as if it had been a rattle； and then he would tell them stories all about the marshes and fens.“Come，” said the mother one day，“Now you must learn to fly.” And all the four young ones were obliged to come out on the top of the roof. Oh， how they tottered at first， and were obliged to balance themselves with their wings， or they would have fallen to the ground below.“Look a t me，” said the mother，“you must hold your heads in this way，and place your feet so. Once， twice， once， twice—that is it. Now you will be able to take care of yourselves in the world.”then she flew a little distance from them， and the young ones made a spring to follow her； but down they fell plump， for their bodies were still too heavy.“I don't want to fly，” said one of the young storks， creeping back into the nest. “I don't care about going to warm countries.”“Would you like to stay here and freeze when the winter comes？” said the mother，“or till the boys comes to hang you， or to roast you？—Well then， I'll call them.”“Oh no， no，” said the young stork， jumping out on the roof with the others； and now they were all attentive， and by the third day could fly a little. Then they began to fancy they could soar， so they tried to do so， resting on their wings， but they soon found themselves falling， and had to flap their wings as quickly as possible. The boys came again in the street singing their song：—“Stork， stork，fly away.”“Shall we fly down， and pick their eyes out？” asked the young storks.“No； leave them alone，” said the mother. “Listen to me； that is much more important. Now then. One-two-three. Now to the right. One-two-three. Now to the left， round the chimney. There now， that was very good. That last flap of the wings was so easy and graceful， that I shall give you permission to fly with me to-morrow to the marshes. There will be a number of very superior storks there with their families， and I expect you to show them that my children are the best broughtup of any who may be present. You must strut about proudly—it will look well and make you respected.”“But may we not punish those naughty boys？” asked the young storks.“No； let them scream away as much as they like. You can fly from them now up high amid the clouds， and will be in the land of the pyramids when they are freezing，and have not a GREen leaf on the trees or an apple to eat.”“We will revenge ourselves，” whisper ed the young storks to each other，as they again joined the exercising.Of all the boys in the street who sang the mocking song about the storks，not one was so determined to go on with it as he who first began it. Yet he was a little fellow not more than six years old. To the young storks he appeared at least a hundred， for he was so much bigger than their father and mother. To be sure，storks cannot be expected to know how old children and grown-up people are. So they determined to have their revenge on this boy， because he began the song first and would keep on with it. The young storks were very angry， and GREw worse as they grew older； so at last their mother was obliged to promise that they should be revenged， but not until the day of their departure.“We must see first， how you acquit yourselves at the grand review，” said she. “If you get on badly there， the general will thrust his beak through you，and you will be killed， as the boys said， though not exactly in the same manner. So we must wait and see.”“You shall see，” said the young birds， and then they took such pains and practised so well every day， that at last it was quite a pleasure to see them fly so lightly and prettily. As soon as the autumn arrived， all the storks began to assemble together before taking their departure for warm countries during the winter. Then the review commenced. They flew over forests and villages to show what they could do， for they had a long journey before them. The young storks performed their part so well that they received a mark of honor， with frogs and snakes as a present. These presents were the best part of the affair， for they could eat the frogs and snakes， which they very quickly did.“Now let us have our revenge，” they cried.“Yes， certainly，” cried the mother stork. “I have thought upon the best way to be revenged. I know the pond in which all the little children lie， waiting till the storks come to take them to their parents. The prettiest little babies lie there dreaming more sweetly than they will ever dream in the time to come. All parents are glad to have a little child， and children are so pleased with a little brother or sister. Now we will fly to the pond and fetch a little baby for each of the children who did not sing that naughty song to make game of the storks.”“But the naughty boy， who began the song first， what shall we do to him？” cried the young storks.“there lies in the pond a little dead baby who has dreamed itself to death，” said the mother. “We will take it to the naughty bo y， and he will cry because we have brought him a little dead brother. But you have not forgotten the good boy who said it was a shame to laugh at animals： we will take him a little brother and sister too， because he was good. He is called Peter， and you shall all be called Peter in future.”So they all did what their mother had arranged， and from that day， even till now， all the storks have been called Peter.。

The young storks were very angry， and GREw worse as they grew older； so at last their mother was obliged to promise that they should be revenged， but not until the day of their departure.“We must see first， how you acquit yourselves at the grand review，”said she. “If you get on badly there， the general will thrust his beak through you，and you will be killed， as the boys said， though not exactly in the same manner. So we must wait and see.”“You shall see，” said the young birds， and then they took such pains and practised so well every day， that at last it was quite a pleasure to see them fly so lightly and prettily. As soon as the autumn arrived， all the storks began to assemble together before taking their departure for warm countries during the winter. Then the review commenced. They flew over forests and villages to show what they could do， for they had a long journey before them. The young storks performed their part so well that they received a mark of honor， with frogs and snakes as a present. These presents were the best part of the affair， for they could eat the frogs and snakes， which they very quickly did.“Now let us have our revenge，” they cried.“Yes， certainly，”cried the mother stork. “I have thought upon the best way to be revenged. I know the pond in which all the little children lie， waiting till the storks come to take them to their parents. The prettiest little babies lie there dreaming more sweetly than they will ever dream in the time to come. All parents are glad to have a little child， and children are so pleased with a little brother or sister. Now we will fly to the pond and fetch a little baby for each of the children who did not sing that naughty song to make game of the storks.”“But the naughty boy， who began the song first， what shall we do to him？”cried the young storks.“there lies in the pond a little dead baby who has dreamed itself to death，”said the mother. “We will take it to the naughty boy， and he will cry because we have brought him a little dead brother. But you have not forgotten the good boy who said it was a shame to laugh at animals： we will take him a little brother and sister too， because he was good. He is called Peter， and you shall all be called Peter in future.”So they all did what their mother had arranged， and from that day， even till now， all the storks have been called Peter.。
圣诞节老人讲故事英语作文
圣诞节老人讲故事英语作文The children eagerly awaited this special night, as they could hardly contain their excitement to hear the tales of Santa Claus and the wonders of the holiday season. On the evening of Christmas Eve, they would gather in the village square, holding hands and singing carols under the twinkling lights that adorned the trees. The air was filled with anticipation and the sweet aroma of roasted chestnuts.As the sun set and the stars began to shine brightly in the sky, the children hurriedly made their way to Nicholas's cozy cottage. The windows were adorned with colorful wreaths, and the door was always open, welcoming the little ones with its warm glow.Nicholas greeted each child with a smile and a twinkle in his eye. He knew how much they longed to hear his stories, and he was always ready to share the magic of Christmas with them."All right, my little friends," Nicholas would say, as the children gathered around him on cushions in front of the fire. "Are you ready for a story that will transport you to a world of wonder and joy?"The children nodded eagerly, their eyes shining with anticipation.Nicholas took a deep breath and began one of his favorite tales. "Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was a small village much like ours. The villagers were hardworking and kind, but they had forgotten the true meaning of Christmas."He went on to tell the story of a humble woodcutter named Thomas, who lived in the village. Thomas was a kind-hearted man who would give his last loaf of bread to a hungry stranger and his last blanket to a homeless child. He believed in the power of love and kindness, and he knew that the true magic of Christmas lay in giving, not receiving.One cold winter's night, as Thomas was walking through the snow-covered forest, he came across an injured bird with a broken wing. Without hesitation, he gently lifted the bird into his hands and carried it back to his warm cottage. There, he made a cozy nest and tended to the bird's injuries.Weeks passed, and the bird slowly regained its strength. Every day, Thomas would feed it and care for it, never expecting anything in return. On Christmas Eve, just as the clock struck midnight, the bird suddenly began to glow with a soft, golden light. It transformed into a beautiful angel, with radiant wings and a halo above its head.The angel smiled at Thomas and said, "Thank you, kind-hearted woodcutter, for your selfless love and care. As a token of my gratitude, I will grant you three wishes."Thomas was taken aback by this unexpected gift. He thought for a moment and then replied, "Dear angel, I wish for everyone in this village to remember the true spirit of Christmas, for no child to go to bed hungry, and for peace and harmony to prevail in our world."The angel nodded, granting Thomas's wishes. The next morning, as the villagers woke up to find their homes filled with warmth and love, they realized the magic of Christmas had returned to their hearts. They came together as a community, helping one another and spreading joy wherever they went.From that day forward, the village celebrated Christmas with a newfound understanding of its true essence. The spirit of giving and love filled the air, transforming the little village into a place of wonders.The children listened to Nicholas's story with wide-eyed wonder, imagining themselves in the village, surrounded by love and kindness. They were inspired by Thomas's selflessness and vowed to carry the spirit of Christmas with them all year long.As the story came to an end, Nicholas glanced at the clock and saw that it was nearly midnight. The children thanked him for the magical tale and hurriedly put on their coats and scarves. They waved goodbye to Nicholas, promising to spread love and kindness in their own lives.Nicholas watched as the children disappeared into the snowy night, their laughter floating on the crisp winter air. He knew that he had touched their hearts and reminded them of the true magic of Christmas. Although Nicholas was just an old man, he believed that stories had the power to change the world and ignite the spirit of goodness in all who listened.As he closed the door to his cozy cottage, Nicholas smiled, knowing that he would continue to tell stories and bring joy to the children of the village for many more Christmases to come. And so, the tradition of the Santa Claus of Christmas and his enchanting stories lived on, filling the hearts of children with wonder and reminding them of the true magic that lies in the spirit of giving and love.And thus, the legacy of Nicholas, the Santa Claus of Christmas, lives on, touching the lives of countless children and reminding them that the true magic of Christmas lies not in the presents under the tree, but in the love and kindness we share with one another.。

圣诞老人英文故事_
圣诞老人英文故事On the night before Christmas, all across the world, millions of children will be tucked in their beds while visions of sugarplums dance in their heads. When they awake they will check their stockings to see if Santa Claus has come.Santa Claus has become the most beloved of Christmas symbols and traditions. The image of the jolly old elf flying in a sleigh pulled by reindeers and leaving toys and gifts for every child is know worldwide. Just like the season of Christmas, the history of the origins of Santa Claus is influenced by the customs and cultures of many countries, beginning in Asia Minor sometime around the 4th century AD. It was here that Bishop Nicholas became renowned for his exceptional generosity, especially to the very young. Many years later he became known as Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of children.As time went on, adults began to dress in the manner of Saint Nicholas, dressed in Bishops vestments and carrying a staff., to re-enact the kindness of the saint. They went from house to house, asking if the children who lived there had been well behaved. In response to these visits, the children left their shoes outside the doors of their houses so that next morning they might find them filled with sweets and trinkets.An Anglo-Saxon version eventually evolved and was known as Father Christmas. His character was a mixture of the Saint Nicholas and earthly perceptions of the gods Thor and Saturn. He wore robes decorated with ivy and holly and carried a switch to threaten unruly children, as well as a bag of toys to reward the well behaved.--来源网络整理，仅供学习参考。
