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.

the feast of christmas
it is not easy to pin-point the origins of the christmas feast, today the more important feast of the christmas season in most western christian churches. one can only say for certain that the birth of jesus christ was being celebrated in rome by the year 336 a.d.; afterwards the feast was celebrated in other christian churches throughout the world.
why it was celebrated on december 25th is another question. no date for the birth of jesus can be found in the new testament, which is concerned more with the question "who is jesus" than the date of his birth. early christian speculation about his birth date was influenced by the symbolism of the changing seasons, then popular in religious thought, which paid careful attention to the equinoxes and solstices of the sun. christian scholars speculated that jesus was conceived at the spring equinox (march 25th) and therefore was born on december 25th, the date of the winter solstice.
in many of the christian churches, march 25th is still the feast of the annunciation, when the angel gabriel announced to mary that she was to be the mother of jesus.
possible impluse for the feast of christmas may have came too from the establishment of the pagan feast of the "unconquered sun-god" by the emperor aurelian in 274 a.d. to be celebrated on december 25, the day of the winter solstice in rome and throughout the empire. in response, christians could celebrate the feast of the "sun of righteousness" (malachi 4,2), jesus christ, who called himself " the light of the world."
father christmas
it is said that in the year of 300 ad, there was a kind old man and his name was saint nicholas. he was always ready to help the poor and often gave presents to them.
today, father christmas is an imaginary figure, but nearly all young children believe in him. they think he is a happy old man with a long white beard and a long red robe.
another name for father christmas is santa claus.
for today's christian, the origin of christmas is, and should be, the birth of jesus christ as recorded in the bible. nothing more and nothing less. however, most of what we witness on december 25th each year has absolutely nothing to do with that blessed day, which probably occurred in late summer or early fall about 2,000 years ago. in fact, most of the customs and traditions of christmas actually pre-date the birth of jesus, and many of them are dowight deceptive in their meaning and origin. anyway, who cares when christ was born
christmas day,the 25th of december,is the biggest
festival(úè)celebrated in the christian countries of the world.although everyone enjoys christmas day,it is particularly enjoyed by children,who get very excited because of the presents they know they are going to receive.small children believe that their presents are brought by father christmas(ê￥μàè).father christmas is a kind of old man who,the children are told,lives at the north pole.he travels through the sky on a sleigh() which is pulled by reindeers(±1) and loaded with(×°ú) presents.stopping on the roof of houses,he enters by climbing the chimney(ì′).when small children go to bed on christmas eve,they hang a stocking at the end of their beds.their parents warn them not to try to look at father christmas,or he will not leave them anything.when they wake,they find their stockings filled with presents.children are very excited on christmas morning and always wake up early.
christmas is also a family celebration.as any members of the family as possible gather to eat,play party games and watch the special christmas programmes on tv.

Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December. It is a very happy day for many boys and girls. Before the term ends in some schools, the children act a nativity or “birth” play, showing how Jesus was born in a stable.
12月25日是圣誕節。對許多男孩和女孩來說，這天是個非常開心的日子。在某些學校，學期結束前，孩子們會表演有關（耶穌）誕生或出生的戲劇，用來（向大家）展示耶穌是如何在馬廄里出生的。
On the twenty-fourth of December, all children are very excited. Usually they are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents ready. The younger children think that Father Christmas will come down the chimney or fireplace, so they hang up a sock for him to put presents in. The greedy ones even hang up a pillow-case or a sack to try to get more presents. Later that night, father or mother will put presents in the sock, and leave others at the side of the bed.
在12月24日這天，所有的小孩都很興奮。他們常常被（父母）早早地趕上床去睡覺，以便他們的父母能準備好禮物。年幼一點的小孩認為圣誕老人將從煙囪或壁爐里下來，所以他們掛起襪子，方便圣誕老人把禮物放進去。有些貪心的人，為了能得到更多的禮物，甚至把枕套或布袋掛起來。晚一些時候，爸爸或媽媽將禮物放進襪子，并把其他禮物放在（孩子們的）床邊。
On Christmas morning, the children wake up very early. Some even turn on the light at two o'clock, and most of them are awake by six o'clock, and the young ones play while the dinner is prepared. At about one o'clock in the afternoon, the Christmas dinner is brought in. The turkey or chicken is quickly eaten. Children search in their Christmas pudding for new coins which are hidden in it. The rest of the day is full of games and eating until the happiest of all Christmas holidays comes to an end.
圣誕節的早上，小孩們很早就醒來了。一些人甚至在凌晨兩點開燈，但大多數小孩會在六點醒來，孩子們在（大人們）準備晚餐的.時候玩耍。下午一點，圣誕大餐出爐了�；痣u或雞腿總是很快被搶光。孩子們尋找著屬于他們的圣誕布丁是為了確認金幣是否有藏在里面。在剩余的時間里，（人們）便是玩游戲和吃食物直到最開心幸福的圣誕節結束。
