Christmas time！
The most wonderful time of the year has arrived!Finally！It’s time to forget about your busy schedules, activities, school and other things, and it’s time to relax and enjoy the holidays with your loved ones.I have to admit I have been going crazy waiting for the Christmas season!Dreamingeveryday about good food, gifts, and laughter with family and friends.And what about you? Is the Christmas feeling in the air getting you into the Christmas spirit?
And who can blame you!Signs all around suggest that Christmas season has arrived!Crowds of shoppers are flooding the High Street, while window displays are as bright as sun on a clear day.Nativity scenes in churches and Santa at the shopping centres are all over the country.Carols are being played on the radio, while you are busy decorating your home with(probably too many)beautiful ornaments.That’s when the true magic of Christmas is unveiled.Imagine it is Christmas Eve„ after weeks of preparation, choosing and ordering Christmas gifts, deciding on the Christmas menu, everyone will go straight to bed in
anticipation of Christmas morning, but nobody will be able to
sleep that night.Children will be wondering what Santa might bring them this year, while adults will be busy wrapping last minute gifts, filling up Christmas stockings, hanging
mistletoe, and trying to make those Christmas lights work.Even Santa will be busy that night!He will have to put all those beautiful gifts under the Christmas tree without anyone
noticing him at work!Imagine doing his job, you would end up very tired and hungry travelling round the world and delivering all those gifts!So to make his night more pleasant, everyone will leave mince pies and gla of milk(red wine very often too!), so that Santa can have some rest!Even Rudolph, Santa's reindeer, will be given a carrot or two as a treat.In the very early morning of Christmas Day somebody will shout ‘He’s been!He’s been!’ in a very excited voice.We know that Santa's been because minced pies and carrots are gone!Everyone will gather round the Christmas tree and altogether will open all gifts, big and small.After the morning filled with excitement, children will probably go back to bed(lucky them!)or play with their new toys, while adults will start preparing Christmas lunch.Cooking a meal for up to 10 people(if not more!)takes a long time, and often Christmas lunch turns into Christmas dinner.But neverthele, the feast will
eventually start with pulling of a cracker and putting a Christmas crown on, and will go on for a long time, by the end of the night you will be saying ‘I will never ever eat this much again in my life!’
However, eating will continue the next day, and on Boxing Day we will tuck into roast turkey curry.When finally no more eating is poible, almost everyone will enjoy afternoon of shopping, as Boxing Day commences the start of sales and huge discounts acro all shops.All will be pleased because it simply means more gifts for everyone!But Boxing Day wouldn't be completed without a visit to a pub, where children can enjoy a mug of hot chocolate with marshmallows, while adults will drink an abundance of mulled wine.Jolly atmosphere will carry on throughout the night.Often the merrine will not finish then, as most people will be off work until New Year, and, thus, celebrations will continue for a long time!
So now you see why we love Christmas!It is difficult not to!
一年中最令人期待、最盛大的节日终于到啦！抛开繁忙的工作，忘却暂时的烦恼，把学习放在一边，好好享受这个轻松愉快的节日。我不得不承认我已经迫不及待了。日思夜想的圣诞美食，五花八门的圣诞礼品以及与家人朋友共同相处的美好时光。你们呢？有没有被浓浓的圣诞节日气氛所感染呢？
大街小巷琳琅满目的打折广告牌已经提醒你圣诞节已经来临。满街都是疯狂购物的节奏，高街上人潮涌动，商铺里挤满了“血拼”的人们，精心设计的圣诞节展示橱窗色彩明亮，吸引眼球。各大教堂精心布置耶稣诞生场景图，圣诞老人的身影也遍布全国各大商场。伴随着收音机里传来的圣诞颂歌，人们忙碌着用各种小饰品装点布置家里，营造温馨的节日气氛。这就是圣诞节的魔力。
圣诞节前夜，经过数周的忙碌准备，精心挑选的圣诞礼物，细心筹备的圣诞大餐菜单，大家应该已经迫不及待上床睡觉期待圣诞节早晨的来临，然而在这个令人兴奋的时刻无人能入睡。孩子们都忍不住想知道今年圣诞老人会为他们准备什么圣诞礼物呢？大人们则正在忙着包装礼物、往圣诞袜里放礼物、挂起槲寄生圣诞花环和用各式各样的灯饰装点。尽管今晚圣诞老人会非常忙碌，但是他还是会悄无声息地将圣诞礼物放在圣诞树下。满世界跑去送礼物可是一个又累又饿的活儿啊！所以为了犒劳圣诞老人，人们会特意为他准备果馅派、牛奶（还有红酒也是很常见），让圣诞老人可以喘口气，歇一歇。当然了，也别忘了给鲁道夫——（圣诞老人驯鹿的名字）准备一两根胡萝卜。
在圣诞节当天一大早，就会有人大喊：“圣诞老人来过我家啦！他来啦！”因为门外的果馅派和胡萝卜都被吃了！大伙儿都聚集在圣诞树下，然后分别拆开大大小小的礼物。经过了一大早的兴奋，孩子们就会睡一个回笼觉或者和他们的玩具“新宠”玩上一会，大人们则开始准备圣诞午餐。一个十人份（如果家里人不是太多）的圣诞午餐是很耗时的，有时候午餐就会变为晚餐也说不定！但是无论怎么样，圣诞拉炮（Cracker）和戴上拉炮里的皇冠（纸质的）是人们圣诞大餐里不可缺少的传统。家人朋友围坐在餐桌前，一同享用传统的圣诞大餐，并一直吃到晚上。结束时会感叹：“我再也不会吃那么多了！”
然而，大餐会一直延续到第二天——节礼日（据传英国有一传统习俗——人们向服务人士赠送盒装的节日礼物，并对其一年来的辛勤工作表示感谢。现在人们把这天变成了“大采购日”）。我们会大吃特吃咖喱火鸡。因为今天是一年中最值得血拼购物的日子，下午你会来不及吃饭的。这一天所有商铺都开始降价打折，大家都会疯狂的购买各种礼品！不过，如果在这一天没有去酒吧，那么这个节礼日就不会完整了。孩子们可以喝一杯热腾腾的巧克力加棉花糖，大人们则可以尽情品尝热圣诞香料酒（以红酒为主料，里面添加 肉桂，香草，丁香，柑橘和糖，加热饮用。香料酒已成为传统的冬季饮料，在圣诞节日摊位中频频亮相。）这种欢乐的节日气氛会一直到半夜。但是人们的欢度节日的心情不会那么快消停，各种疯狂热闹的节日庆祝活动会一直到新年，因为大多数人这段时间都是处于放假阶段，所以可以无限畅玩啊！
现在你知道圣诞节对于我们来说有多重要了吧，你说我们怎么能不爱圣诞节呢！
