the name christmas is short for "christ's mass". a mass is a kind of church service. christmas is a religious festival. it is the day we celebrate as the birthday of jesus. there are special christmas services in christian churches all over the world. but many of the festivities of christmas do not have anything to do with religion. exchanging gifts and sending christmas cards are the modern ways of celebrating the christmas in the world. ??the birth of jesus had a story: in nazareth, a city of galilee. the virgin's name was mary was betrothed to joseph. before they came together, she was found with child of the holy spirit. joseph her husband was minded to put her away secretly. while he thought about these things, gabriel, an angel of the lord appeared to him in a dream and told him did not be afraid to take mary as wife. and mary will bring forth a son, and he shall call his name, jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. ??before jesus births, joseph and mary came to quirnius was governing syria. so all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. joseph also went up out of galilee, out of the city of nazareth, into judea, to the city of david, which is called bethlehem, because he was of the house and of the lineage of david, to be registered with mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. so it was that while they were there, the days were completed for her to bedelivered. and she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. ??and that, christmas is the feast of the nativity of jesus, is on 25th, december every year. but nobody know the actual birthday of jesus. and the christmas has become popular when christmas cards appeared in 1846 and the concept of a jolly santa claus was first made popular in nineteenth century.

Angelo　Gil先生

　　How　ever　if　there　is　one　holiday　that　is　almost　universal　especially　in　the　west; it's　Christmas.　Celebrating　it　in　China　is　not　very　easy, as　some　of　the　usual　foods are　not　readily　available.　While　walking　down　the　street　you　are　not　bombarded　by　a　Santa　Claus　and　his　elves at　every　store, and　there　are　no　crazy　holiday　shoppers　that　I　have　seen.　Being　in　China reminds us　what　a　holiday　like　Christmas is about. It's　not　about　the　gift　sand　the　crowds　not　even　about　the　liquor…well　maybe　it's　a　little　bit　about　the　liquor. Seriously　though　it　reminds　us　that　beyond　the　great　consumerism　extravaganza　it　has　become　at home　Christmas　is　about　coming　together　with　the　people　who　are　close　to　you　and　celebrating　all　that　is　good　in　life. This　year　a　few　friends　and　I　will　try　to　acquire　all　the　ingredients　for　a　proper　Christmas　dinner; Turkey, Roast　Potatoes, Gravy, Wine. Invite people, gather　round　a　table　with　a nice meal, and　remember　what　the　true　meaning　of　Christmas is. Of　course　it　wouldn't　be　Christmas　without　going　to　the　pub after dinner!

    译文：如果有一个节日几乎是全球都在庆祝，尤其是在西方，那一定是圣诞节。在中国庆祝圣诞节不是一件容易的事，因为有一些看似很普通的地道美食在中国不一定买得到。尽管走在街上门上能够看到一些圣诞装饰，但是看不到为圣诞节疯狂购物的人群。圣诞节在中国会让我想起在家和亲朋好友聚在一起庆祝圣诞的情景。今年圣诞，我会和朋友准备一顿传统的圣诞节大餐，例如火鸡、烤土豆、红酒，邀请朋友们一起坐在圆桌旁边一起享用一顿美食。当然，晚餐之后不去酒吧庆祝，就一定不是圣诞节！

Stravo先生

　　Christmas　for us　is　like　spring　festival　for　Chinese. It　is　a　big　day　that　all　the　family　members　will　sit　together　and　have　a nice meal. I　am　going　to　celebrate　it　in　one　of　my　friends'　family　this　year.　If　you　want　you　can　try　a　traditional　Christmas　game　called　"secrets　anta　"which　is　good　to　families　and friends.　Everyone　needs　to　buy　a　gift,　write　your　name　on　a　small　card　and　put　all　the　cards　in a box,　take　out　a　card　one　by　one　and　give　your　gift　to　the person whose　name　is　on　the　card, give　him　or her　a　big　hug　and　say　merry　Christmas, have　fun!

    译文：对我们来说圣诞节好像中国的春节一样，是全家人要坐在一起享受圣诞大餐的大日子。今年我会和我的一个朋友的家人一起庆祝。如果喜欢你可以和家人或者朋友玩一下这个传统的圣诞游戏叫做“圣诞老人的秘密”。每个人要准备一份礼物，把自己的名字写在卡片上然后把所有的卡片放在一个盒子里，轮流抽取卡片，把自己的礼物送给你抽到的那个人，拥抱和告诉他圣诞快乐，希望你们开心!

中国人怎么过圣诞

People around the world are celebrating Christmas.

On Christmas Eve in Beijing, more than 15-hundred people packed into the 407-year old Church of the Immaculate Conception in Beijing to celebrate midnight mass - while many more stood outside watching services on two big TV monitors.

Ma Shuncai, a Beijing resident said Christmas has become a popular festival in in China.

"I think the Christmas Festival is very suitable for the Chinese. Although it is a foreign festival, but we can learn something from the religion."

According to statistics, there are more than 21 million Christian church members in China, and more than 50 million Bibles have been printed.

Elsewhere around the world, Europeans are cutting back on Christmas expenses as they try to keep the fires of festive cheer burning in tough economic times.

And the situation in the United States is similar.

圣诞节的趣事
christmas day christmas day falls on the twenty-fifth of december. it is a very happy day for many boys and girls . before the term ends in some schools , the children act a nativity① or birth” play, showing how jesus② was born in a stable③. on the twenty-fourth of december, all children are very excited. usually they are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents ready. the younger children think that father christmas will come down the chimney or fireplace , so they hang up a sock for him to put presents in. the greedy ones even hang up a pillow-case④ or a sack⑤ to try to get more presents. later that night, father or mother will put presents in the sock, and leave others at the side of the bed. on christmas morning, the children wake up very early. some even turn on the light at two o'clock, and most of them are awake by six o'clock although it is not light in england for another hour or two at this time of the year.

The Christmas Broadcast 2009
One of the features of growing old is a heightened awareness of change.  To remember what happened 50 years ago means that it is possible to appreciate what has changed in the meantime.  It also makes you aware of what has remained constant.

In my experience, the positive value of a happy family is one of the factors of human existence that has not changed.  The immediate family of grandparents, parents and children, together with their extended family, is still the core of a thriving community.

When Prince Philip and I celebrated our Diamond Wedding last month, we were much aware of the affection and support of our own family as they gathered round us for the occasion.
 
Now today, of course, marks the birth of Jesus Christ.  Among other things, it is a reminder that it is the story of a family; but of a family in very distressed circumstances.  Mary and Joseph found no room at the inn; they had to make do in a stable, and the new-born Jesus had to be laid in a manger.  This was a family which had been shut out.

Perhaps it was because of this early experience that, throughout his ministry, Jesus of Nazareth reached out and made friends with people whom others ignored or despised.  It was in this way that he proclaimed his belief that, in the end, we are all brothers and sisters in one human family.

The Christmas story also draws attention to all those people who are on the edge of society - people who feel cut off and disadvantaged; people who, for one reason or another, are not able to enjoy the full benefits of living in a civilised and law-abiding community.  For these people the modern world can seem a distant and hostile place.

It is all too easy to 'turn a blind eye', 'to pass by on the other side', and leave it to experts and professionals.  All the great religious teachings of the world press home the message that everyone has a responsibility to care for the vulnerable.  Fortunately, there are many groups and individuals, often unsung and unrewarded, who are dedicated to ensuring that the 'outsiders' are given a chance to be recognised and respected.  However, each one of us can also help by offering a little time, a talent or a possession, and taking a share in the responsibility for the well-being of those who feel excluded.

And also today I want to draw attention to another group of people who deserve our thoughts this Christmas.  We have all been conscious of those who have given their lives, or who have been severely wounded, while serving with the Armed Forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.  The dedication of the National Armed Forces Memorial was also an occasion to remember those who have suffered while serving in these and every other place of unrest  since the end of the Second World War.

For their families, Christmas will bring back sad memories, and I pray that all of you, who are missing those who are dear to you, will find strength and comfort in your families and friends.
 
A familiar introduction to an annual Christmas Carol Service contains the words: 'Because this would most rejoice his heart, let us remember, in his name, the poor and the helpless, the cold, the hungry, and the oppressed; the sick and those who mourn, the lonely and the unloved.' joozone.com

Wherever these words find you, and in whatever circumstances, I want to wish you all a blessed Christmas.add text here.
