我对圣诞节的记忆 My Memory About Christmas Day

Christmas Day is on December 25th, though it originated in the western country, now it is popular around the world. In China, people will spend that day happily, they will eat apples on Christmas Eve, the children will put the socks so that they could get the presents from Santa Claus. When I went to college, I had an unforgettable memory about my first Christmas Day.
圣诞节在12月5号，虽然圣诞节起源于西方国家，但是如今在世界都很流行。在中国，人们会高兴地过节，他们会在平安夜吃苹果，孩子们会放上袜子，以此来得到圣诞老人的礼物。当我上大学的时候，对于我的第一次过圣诞节，我印象很深刻。

As my major is English, I have many foreign teachers, so that I could have access to the local culture from them. Christmas Day is a big day for them, when the day came, they asked us to spend the day with them, because most of them left home and did not have families around. My classmates and I went to the foreign teacher’s home at that day, we brought some presents, when we arrived at his house, we found a beautiful tree with shinning lights. My teachers taught us how to cook all the cookies, we were having such great fun. I made the cookies with many favors. We talked happily and sung Christmas songs.
由于我的专业是英语，我有很多的外国老师，所以我能从他们身上学到本地文化。圣诞节对于他们来说是个大节日，当那天到来的时候，他们邀请我们去和他们过节，因为他们大部分人离家，没有家人在身边。我的同学和我在那天去了外教家里，我们带上了一些礼物，当我们到达他家里的时候，发现了一颗漂亮的树，树上有闪亮的灯。我的老师教我们如何制作饼干，我们玩得很开心。我制作了很多口味的饼干。我们愉快地聊天，唱起了圣诞歌。

I learned how the foreign people spend their big day, it was such unforgettable for me.
我了解到了外国人是如何度过他们的大节日，让我永生难忘。

圣诞节 My Christmas Day

Today is Christmas Day. It’s a western holiday, but it’s popular in our country, too. Today, our English teacher buys chocolates to us. They are very sweet. And then, she teaches us a song, Jingle Bell. It’s a lovely song and easy to sing. We learn it quickly. At night, my mother cooks some delicious western food. I love this Christmas Day.

圣诞节会代替春节吗？Will Christmas Replace Spring Festival

Spring festival is our Chinese traditional festival. It is important to us. We will celebrate it every year. But with the development of the world, Christmas Day plays a more and more important place. And there are more and more Chinese celebrate this festival. We can see that Christmas Day is noisier that spring festival in the big city, because people will go back to their hometown. The big city seems very lonely. So, some people are afraid that Christmas Day will take the place of spring festival. But I don’t think so, because spring festival is a symbol of China.  
春节是我们中国的传统节日。它对我们很重要。我们每年都会庆祝。但是，随着世界的发展，圣诞节对我们来说也越来越重要。越来越多的中国人庆祝这个节日。我们可以看到在大城市圣诞节要比春节热闹，因为大家都会家乡了。大城市就显得很冷清。所以，有些人担心圣诞节会取代春节。但我并不这么认为，因为春节是中国的一个象征。

诞节对我的意义 What Christmas Day Means to Me

Christmas Day is very popular around the world, when that day comes, we can see the Christmas products sell everywhere, though Christmas Day is not originating from China, in our country, more and more people spend that day. A foreigner pointed out that Christmas meant to be grateful for them, while for Chinese people, it was just a day for celebrating. To me, Christmas indeed means a day to have fun.
圣诞节在全世界都很流行，当那天来临的时候，我们可以看到到处都在卖圣诞产品，虽然圣诞节不是起源于中国，但是在我们国家，越来越多的人过圣诞节。有位外国人指出圣诞节对于他们来说意味着感恩，然而对于中国人来说，那仅仅只是用来庆祝的日子。对于我来说，圣诞确实意味着玩得开心。

When I was small, I did not have the concept of Christmas, because in my mind, I only knew Chinese traditional festivals, I liked Spring Festival best, I could get a lot of money from parents. When I went to high school, all of my friends would talk about Christmas Day when the day was near, so I started to know it. Almost every young people like Christmas, but if you ask them what the meaning of the day, less of them can answer.
当我还小的时候，我没有圣诞的概念，因为在我的脑海里，我只知道中国的传统节日，我最喜欢春节，我可以从父母那里得到很多钱。当我上高中，我所有的朋友都会在圣诞节临近前谈论它，所以我开始知道圣诞节。几乎所有的年轻人都喜欢圣诞，但是如果你问他们圣诞节的意义，很少人能答得上。

The meaning of Christmas Day is to remind people of Jesus’s birth, it is so important for the western people, but for me, I only want to have fun, everyone is celebrating it, so I join them, being happy, that’s enough for me.
圣诞节的意义在于提醒人们耶稣的诞辰，这对于西方人来说是很重要的，但是对于我来说，我只是想要玩得开心，大家都在庆祝它，所以我加入他们， 我很开心，这就足够了。
