圣诞节活动英语作文：美国怎么过圣诞？


Christmas
…

you
heard
that
song?
Yup!
It's
Christmas
time!
This Christmas, I stayed with my
amazing experience to see how a typical American family would
celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.
Christmas,
like
our
Spring
Festival,
has
a
meaning
in
itself.
Christmas
Day,
which
is
on
December
25,
is
the
birthday
of
Jesus
Christ--the son of God. That's why it is called Christmas. On
that
day,
Christians
would
get
together
with
their
families
to
celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious
meaning
of
Christmas
has
bee
less
emphasized.
To
many
families,
it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting
present- giving.
Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11.
I
stayed
at
my
friend,
Stephen
Stapczynski's
house--his
family
was my
ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming
everywhere.
The
Christmas
tree
had
already
been
set
up,
and
on
every
windowsill,
there
were
Christmas
lights.
On
the
first
day
I
arrived
at
their
house,
Stephen
and
I
helped
Mrs.
Stapczynski
put
decorations
on
the
Christmas
tree.
The
tree
looked
so
nice
with
all
the
lights
on
and
the
beautiful
ornaments
dangling
from
its branches.
As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made
preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their
houses, inviting all their neighbors to e. So every night, if
you
went
out,
you
would
see
a
long
line
of
cars
parked
in
front
of some house--a party's on!
What's
more,
the
Christmas
decorations
that
some
people
put
on
their
windows
and
in
gardens
were
just
amazing
。
On
one
night,
we went out in our car for a
。
There was one
street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way
into
the
local
paper
。
We
had
a
hard
time
finding
the
well-hidden
street,
but
it
turned
out
to
be
worth
the
effort
。
Lights
shone
brightly
in
front
of
nearly
every
house,
on
trees,
bushes,
doors,
windows
…
everywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem
almost like daytime
。

Huge
inflatable
figures
in
the
front
gardens
were
waving
to
us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily
away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like
Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer --with his red nose gleaming
ever
so
brightly;
even
Bart
Simpson--a
character
in
the
famous
edy
The
Simpsons--had
joined
the
jolly
party,
wearing
a
Santa's
hat
。
The street set
off
a
lot
of

and

inside
the
car
。
4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street,
all there to see the lights
。

Christmas is the time for exchanging presents. Stephen and
Niko had been thinking about their Christmas lists (a list of
things
they
wish

give
them
for
Christmas)
for
a
long
time. I didn't want to ask for anything, but the Stapczynskis
were
so
kind
to

make
one
list
as
well
(Mr.
Stapczynski
told me if I didn't make one he would chop off my legs). So I
wrote down a couple of things that I would like to have, and
gave the list to them-- sorry, my mistake--to Santa.
Finally, Christmas Eve came. There was a special Christmas
service at the church at 6 p.m. It was certainly a very
interesting experience for me. The priest started the service
reading and sang out extractions from a holy book--The Divine
Liturgy. For several times, we would stand up and pray.
I think that no matter if you are a Christian or not, this
principle should be part of our lives
。
After the priest
finished his speech, the part that I enjoyed most came:
Christmas
carols5
。
Christmas
carols
are
songs
that
people
sing
at Christmas, such as
