圣诞节。Xmas(亦写作X-mas),是圣诞节英文Christmas的意思。最正统的写法是Xmas,而X'mas乃东亚地区误用词。Xmas是代写,并非一般人所认为的缩写。
圣诞节在世界各国被庆祝为一个重要的节日和公共假日,其中包括许多人口主要是非基督徒的国家。在一些非基督教地区,前殖民统治时期引入了庆祝活动(例如香港);在其他地区,基督教少数民族或外国文化影响导致人们庆祝节日。
像日本这样的国家,尽管基督徒人数很少,但圣诞节很受欢迎,他们采用了圣诞节的许多世俗方面,例如送礼、装饰和圣诞树。
在具有强烈基督教传统的国家中,已经发展出各种融合了地区和当地文化的圣诞节庆祝活动。
圣诞习俗数量众多,包括世俗、宗教、国家、圣诞相关,国与国之间差别很大。甚至大部分人熟悉的圣诞符号及活动,如圣诞火鸡、圣诞柴、冬青、槲寄生、圣诞花圈以及互赠礼物,都是基督教传教士从早期Asatru异教的冬至假日Yule里吸收而来,根本上是欧洲传统的异教习俗。
对冬至的庆祝早在基督教到达北欧之前就在那里广为进行了,今天圣诞节一词在斯堪的纳维亚语里依然是异教的jul(或yule)。圣诞树也不是基督教的,被认为最早在德国一带(当时德国还是分裂的城邦)被发明出来,后来为各不同地方所沿用至节日里面。
影响
因为圣诞节的焦点在于与朋友和家庭一起欢度(在香港、台湾更盛行情侣间的庆祝,变相成为情人节),故在欧美国家,常会于圣诞连假期间出现大规模、甚至全国性的返乡潮。但对没有家庭或情侣的人,以及最近遭受损失的人,在圣诞节期间更容易患上忧郁症。因此圣诞期间对心理咨询服务的需求增加。
人们发现圣诞期间自杀和谋杀率会出现一个小峰值,可能是因为假日庆祝少不了酒精助兴的缘故。但无论如何,自杀率最高的月份还是5月和6月;圣诞期间因为酒后开车相关的灾难因而也有所增加。
在基督教国家里,非基督教徒会在圣诞节感觉到没有意思,因为商店都关门了,朋友们也都去度假了,他们的唯一娱乐只是“**和中国餐馆”了,**院还会为了在假日赚钱保持开放。华人开的店铺不会在这个热闹的日子里关门。
圣诞节通常对于庆祝圣诞节的国家来说,是最大的每年一度的经济刺激。在几乎所有零售领域,销售会发生戏剧性的增长,如人们购买礼物,装饰,供应为来宾准备的派对。
Dear wangxiaomen:
Thank you for your continued help,without which,I can't do well inmy English study
lt's universally acknowledged that you're a experienced teacher,whocan make each clalovely and interesting by telling stories,singing a songand even playing some games
We are always deeply attracted in it and step foward day by day
The twentieth Teacher's Day is coming,l wish you happy andsuccein everything

一封优质的感谢信不需要太长,也不要过分宣泄自己的感激之情,简单诚挚就好。
1 问候
在多数情况下,“Hi [Name]”就够了。不过在稍微正式的语境下,比如写给你的领导、人事经理或者你的教授,用“Dear [Name]”会更合适。但如果是在非常正式的语境下,则应使用“Dear Ms/Mr [Last Name],”。
2 正文
首先说明收件人具体帮了你什么。虽然偶尔使用笼统的感谢也可以,但具体说明帮助的内容会显得更实诚。比较一下以下两种说法:
笼统感谢:Thanks for always being willing to lend a hand when I need you
具体感谢:Thanks for putting in extra time to make our presentation a success
然后列举一下帮助的相关细节,包括对方做了哪些你觉得特别有用的事,或者说哪方面的帮助是远超过普通人的。不要小看细节,这些细节的娓娓道来,将使收件人充分感受到你是多么重视他(她)的付出。
3 结尾
一般在信的末尾写上“Thanks again”,并附上你的签名就够了。
小贴士
如果你想快速将感谢信发给对方的话,使用电子邮件是个不错的选择。但如果是对于一些重要场合的帮助,比如律师事务所的面试,寄送一封亲笔手写的感谢信则会更佳。考虑一下你收到帮助的场景并做出合适的选择。

篇一:圣诞节作文英语带翻译
在美丽的圣诞节前一天,我写了一封给圣诞老人的信,请求他送我一份圣诞节礼物,最好是一件漂亮的公主裙。
信写完后,我很激动地放在阳台上。一天后,信被悄悄地拿走了,我兴奋不已,期盼着快一点收到礼物。等了漫长的两天,我果然在阳台上发现了一套包装好的公主裙。当我非常兴奋地打开包装,发现这是一件好好漂亮的衣服,它是我最喜欢的粉红色,领子上有一层软软的绒毛,腰带上系着两只毛茸茸的小线球,我迫不及待地穿上试了一下,大小非常合适,镜子里的我像一个真正的小公主。
穿着美丽的衣服,我的脑子里充满了神奇的幻想:圣诞老人一定是位非常和善可爱的老头儿,他在这个节日里,乘坐着漂亮的花车,由两只神鹿拉着,车上满载各式各样的圣诞礼物,从他的居住地——芬兰的罗瓦涅米出发,一路上为人们送发礼物,他该是多么辛苦,而又是让人感觉多么幸福啊!
我曾经抱怨圣诞老人为什么在我写信三天以后才送我礼物,后来我想,也许,可能是圣诞老人驾着车逛了三次超市都没买到礼物,第四次才发现了公主裙;也可能是他的法术不够高明,又修炼了三天的神力,才变出我希望得到的公主裙。
圣诞老人为了满足人们的愿望,不辞辛苦地奔忙,给人们带来快乐,除了要感谢他以外,我还应该好好学习,做一个快乐的好孩子。并且,从现在开始,我也要做一位快乐使者,学着帮助别人,帮助同学和朋友,帮助老师和家人,给他们带来快乐!
On the day before Christmas, I wrote a letter to Santa and asked him to give me a Christmas present, preferably a beautiful princess dress
After the letter was written, I was very excited to put it on the balcony A day later, the letter was quietly taken away I was so excited that I looked forward to receiving the gift soon After two long days, I found a wrapped princess skirt on the balcony When I was very excited to open the packing, found that it is a beautiful dress, well, it is one of my favorite pink collar with a layer of soft hairs, belt tied with two fuzzy string cable ball, I can't wait to wear test, size is very appropriate, in the mirror I like a real princess
Wearing beautiful clothes, my head is full of magical fantasy: Santa Claus must be a very kind and lovely old man, he in this festival, a beautiful float, pull, by two established car loaded with all kinds of Christmas gifts, from his residence - the ROM tile kaisaniemi of Finland, delivered gifts for people, all the way he how hard it is, and how to make people feel happy!
I used to complain about why Santa in I write three days later to send me a gift, then I thought, perhaps, may be the Santa Claus drove around the three supermarkets didn't buy gift, for the fourth time to found the princess dress; It could be that his spell was not good enough, and it took three days of magic to make the princess dress I hoped to get
In order to satisfy people's wishes, Father Christmas brings happiness to people Besides thanking him, I should study hard and be a happy boy And, from now on, I will also be a happy messenger, learn to help others, help classmates and friends, help teachers and family, bring them happiness!
篇二:圣诞节作文英语带翻译星期五下午,我们班开了一次圣诞联欢会,使我难忘。
教室里张灯结彩。联欢会场被大家装扮的格外迷人,黑板上画着圣诞老人,同学们各个喜气洋洋,欢声笑语使整个联欢会充满了浓浓的圣诞节气氛。在一片掌声中,联欢会拉开了帷幕。
联欢会开始了,那精彩的表演像磁铁般地把我吸引住了。大家热情高涨,纷纷登台献艺,施展自己的艺术才华。
首先是闫宇荣同学为我们朗诵诗歌,她用那甜美的声音为我们朗诵起来,把大家的神思带到一个雨的世界,让我们感受到妈妈的重要性。朗诵完了,下面响起热烈的掌声,是呀,她朗诵的真感人!然后是我们班的“小小舞蹈家”崔阳、杜政耀上台表演,音乐响了,他们随着音乐跳,有街舞、有倒立……崔阳和杜政耀表演完了,我们班一起唱了铃儿响叮当:“叮叮当,叮叮当,铃儿响叮当,坐在雪橇多快乐我们飞奔向前方,冲破大风雪……
联欢会结束了,但是同学们还沉浸在欢声笑语中。
On Friday afternoon, our class had a Christmas party, which made me unforgettable
The classroom is decorated with lights The hall was decorated by everyone, and there were pictures of Santa Claus on the blackboard All the students were beaming with joy The whole party was filled with the atmosphere of Christmas In a round of applause, the gala kicked off
The party began, and the wonderful performance gripped me like a magnet Everyone is enthusiastic and enthusiastic, taking the stage to perform, to display their artistic talent
First of all, yan yurong recited poetry for us, and she read it to us with that sweet voice, and brought the people's thoughts to a world of rain, so that we could feel the importance of mother After the recitation, there was a warm round of applause Yes, she read it very moving!

篇三:圣诞节作文英语带翻译今天,我们英语班开了一个圣诞晚会。我们都非常开心,还得到了许多礼品呢!
我们先围成一圈坐下,中间留了一大片,是演出的场地。晚会开始了。突然门外传来争吵的声音,主持人出去看了看,原来是圣诞老人和圣诞婆婆在为谁先进屋而争论不休。主持人把两扇门都打开,他俩就一块进来了。哇!他们带来了什么好东西呀,装了两大袋子,我猜应该是一些糖果吧。哇!他们开始发礼物了,教室立刻沸腾起来,男孩子没有了绅士风度,女孩子没有了矜持,大家都在抢,抢!生怕没有自己的份,我也在抢,猎获了许多战利品。
节目开始了,每个节目都非常好看。特别是《三只小猪》这个节目,让我们笑得前仰后合,老师也笑得直流眼泪。到我们表演了,我们演的是一个小话剧,大意是:小鸭子到奶奶家的途中帮助小猫捉到了鱼,把受伤得小山羊送回了家。因为这个话剧短,我们都背得特别熟,所以表演特别顺利。
到了最后一环节了,就是交换礼物。老师拿了两个大箱子,把我们分成两组,每一组都有一个箱子,把礼物放进去。我刚开始还以为老师要收回礼物呢?就不情愿的把礼物放进去,后来才明白过来,原来用这两个箱子来交换礼物。我们放进去多大的礼物,就可以换一个差不多大小的礼物。交换完礼物这个圣诞Party就结束了。
今天我看了好看的节目,还有许多好吃好看好玩的礼品,圣诞节真开心啊!
Today, our English class has a Christmas party We were all very happy and got a lot of presents!
We sat down in a circle, and there was a big, playing field The party has begun Suddenly there was an argument outside, and the host went out to see what it was that Santa Claus and Mrs Claus were arguing about The host opened both doors, and they entered A: wow! They brought something nice and two big bags I guess some candy A: wow! They began to send presents, and the classroom began to boil, and the boy was not gentlemanly, the girl was not reserved, and everyone was robbing and robbing! For fear of not having my share, I was also robbing, hunting a lot of spoils
The show began, and every program was very good In particular, the "three little pigs" program makes us laugh with laughter, and the teacher laughs with tears When we performed, we performed a little play, which was basically: the duckling helped the kitten catch the fish on the way to the grandmother's house, and sent the injured goat back home Because the play was short, we all knew it well, so the performance was very smooth
The last link is exchange of gifts The teacher took two large boxes and divided us into two groups Each group had a box to put in Did I just start thinking that the teacher was going to take it back Reluctantly, I put the presents in, and then I realized that I used these two boxes to exchange gifts We can get a gift that is about the size of a gift we put in After exchanging gifts, the Christmas Party is over
Today I saw a good show, and there are many delicious and interesting gifts
