描述圣誕節的作文[4]

On the night before Christmas, all across the world, millions of children will be tucked in their beds while visions of sugarplums dance in their heads. When they awake they will check their stockings to see if Santa Claus has come.

Santa Claus has become the most beloved of Christmas symbols and traditions. The image of the jolly old elf flying in a sleigh pulled by reindeers and leaving toys and gifts for every child is know worldwide.

Just like the season of Christmas, the history of the origins of Santa Claus is influenced by the customs and cultures of many countries, beginning in Asia Minor sometime around the 4th century AD. It was here that Bishop Nicholas became renowned for his exceptional generosity, especially to the very young. Many years later he became known as Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of children.

As time went on, adults began to dress in the manner of Saint Nicholas, dressed in Bishops vestments and carrying a staff., to re-enact the kindness of the saint. They went from house to house, asking if the children who lived there had been well behaved. In response to these visits, the children left their shoes outside the doors of their houses so that next morning they might find them filled with sweets and trinkets.

An Anglo-Saxon version eventually evolved and was known as Father Christmas. His character was a mixture of the Saint Nicholas and earthly perceptions of the gods Thor and Saturn. He wore robes decorated with ivy and holly and carried a switch to threaten unruly children, as well as a bag of toys to reward the well behaved.

圣誕節前夕，世界上數百萬的孩子會躲在床上，在頭上跳糖果舞。當他們醒來時，他們會檢查他們的長襪，看看圣誕老人是否來了。

圣誕老人已經成為圣誕節最受歡迎的象征和傳統。老精靈像馴鹿一樣坐在雪橇上，給每個孩子帶來玩具和禮物。

就像圣誕節一樣，圣誕老人起源的歷史受到許多國家的習俗和文化的影響。從公元前四世紀左右的亞洲小調開始，尼古拉斯主教以其非凡的慷慨而聞名，尤其是對非常年輕的人來說。許多年后，他被稱為圣尼古拉斯，孩子們的守護神。

隨著時間的推移，成年人開始給圣尼古拉斯一種穿著主教法衣和執行人員重新制定的圣善方式。他們從一個家庭到另一個家庭，問住在那里的孩子們是否表現得很好。針對這些訪問，孩子們把鞋子放在房子的門上，以便第二天早上他們可能會發現它們裝滿了糖果和小飾品。

盎格魯撒克遜版本最終演變成了圣誕老人。他的性格是圣尼古拉斯和世界對神托爾和薩圖恩的看法的混合體。他穿著常春藤和冬青樹裝飾的長袍，用開關威脅無法無天的孩子，用一袋玩具獎勵行為端正的孩子。
