Christmas is an important festival in Britain and many other parts of the world. On Christmas Eve—the night before Christmas Day–children all over Britain put a stocking at the end of their beds before they go to sleep. Their parents usually tell them that Father Christmas e during the night.
Christmas is very kind—hearted. He lands on top of each house and climbs down the chimney into the fireplace.
He fills each of the stockings with Christmas presents.
Of course, Father Christmas isn’t real. In their houses, “Father Christmas” is really their fathers. Their fathers don’t climb down the chimney. They wait until the children are asleep. Then they go into their bedrooms, and fill their stockings with small presents.
Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is a very important cultural festival in the United States. It takes place on the last Thursday of November and its purpose, as its name suggests, is to give thanks for all that we have.
在美国,感恩节是一个非常重要的节日。感恩节是在11月的最后一个星期四,它的纪念主题正如它的名字本身所提到的,感谢我们所拥有的一切。最早开始庆祝这个节日的是“五月花号”上的清教徒们。在渡过了一个难熬的严冬后,他们获得了一次大丰收,于是,他们决定举行一个盛大的宴会来表达他们的感激之情。
