关于圣诞节的英语故事一:为何要戴纸帽子
All over Britain on Christmas Day, families can be found sitting around their dining tables enjoying a traditional lunch of roast turkey with all the trimmings - and all, regardless of age, wearing coloured paper hats. It is rumoured that even the Queen wears her paper hat over lunch!
圣诞节当天,全英国的家庭都会坐在餐桌前,吃一顿传统的圣诞大餐,塞满了各种馅料的烤火鸡。无论年龄老幼,所有人都会在头上戴一顶彩色纸做成的纸帽子。据说,就连伊莉莎白女王也会戴纸帽子哦!
So why this quaint tradition? Where do these paper hats come from? The answer is the Christmas Cracker.
那为什么会有这个古怪的传统呢?戴纸帽子的传统来源于哪里?答案就在另一项圣诞传统活动——圣诞拉炮!
A Christmas Cracker is a cardboard paper tube, wrapped in brightly coloured paper and twisted at both ends. There is a banger inside the cracker, two strips of chemically impregnated paper that react with friction so that when the cracker is pulled apart by two people, the cracker makes a bang.
圣诞拉炮是用硬纸板做的纸筒,再用色彩鲜艳的彩纸包裹在外面,两端拧紧。在拉炮里会有一个爆竹,当两个人拉动拉炮两端时,拉炮里的两条浸渍纸就会发生摩擦,发出“嘣”的响声。
Inside the cracker there is a paper crown made from tissue paper, a motto or joke on a slip of paper and a little gift.
拉炮里会装有纸做的皇冠、写在纸上的名言或笑话,还会有一些小礼物。
Christmas crackers are a British tradition dating back to Victorian times when in the early 1850s, London confectioner Tom Smith started adding a motto to his sugared almond bonbons which he sold wrapped in a twisted paper package.
圣诞拉炮成为英国传统的历史可以追溯到维多利亚时期,约在19世纪50年代早期,伦敦的一个糖果商汤姆-史密斯把写有名言的纸片放在了他售卖的糖果包装里,包装方式就是在糖果外用纸将两头拧紧。
The paper hat was added to the cracker in the early 1900s. The cracker was soon adopted as a traditional festive custom and today virtually every household has at least one box of crackers to pull over Christmas.
到了20世纪初,纸帽子也被放到了圣诞拉炮里。很快,拉炮就成了英国人过圣诞节的传统习俗。现在,所有的英国家庭至少都会准备一盒拉炮留到圣诞节时来拉响。
关于圣诞节的英语故事二:Hiding the Presents 藏礼物
i had finished my christmas shopping early and had wrapped all the presents. having two curious children, i had to find a suitable hiding place. i chose an ideal spot—the furnace room. i stacked the presents and covered them with a blanket, positive they’d remain undiscovered. when i went to get the gifts to put them under the tree, i lifted the blanket and there, stacked neatly on top of my gifts, were presents addressed to "mom and dad, from the kids."
早些天我就做好圣诞购物并包装好所有的礼物了。因为有两个好奇的孩子,我需要找一个适合藏礼物的隐蔽处。我想到了一个理想的地方--炉子间。我叠好礼物,用一块毯子把它们盖起来,觉得它们肯定不会被发现。当我去拿礼物想把它们放在圣诞树下时,我掀开毯子,看到,在我准备好的礼物上面整齐地叠放着另一些礼物,上面写着“给爸爸妈妈,你们的宝贝”
关于圣诞节的英语故事三:
Chrismas Father was the descendant of a deity called Odin. It's also said that Chrismas Father comes from San Nichola, so he is also called St.Nicholas. He was the bishop of Asia Minor city of Rafah and he was called a man of God after his death. He is an old man in red clothes and he wears a red hat.He has white mustache. He comes from the north on a blowmobile every Chrismas Day. He went into people's houses by the track and he put the presents into children's socks. So in western countries,parents put the gifts to their kids in kids' socks and put them on the head of the bed on Chrismas Eve. On the second day, the first thing after kids wake up is to find the presents from Chrismas Fathers.
