3.圣诞树的来历
近代圣诞树起源于德国,后来逐步在世界范围内流行起来,成为圣诞节庆祝中最有名的传统之一。据称,圣诞树最早出现在古罗马12月中旬的农神节,德国传教士尼古斯在公元8世纪用纵树供奉圣婴。随后,德国人把12月24日作为亚当和夏娃的节日,在家放上象征伊甸园的“乐园树”,上挂代表圣饼的小甜饼,象征赎罪;还点上蜡烛和球,象征基 督。到16世纪,宗教改革者马丁.路德,为求得一个满天星斗的圣诞之夜,设计出在家中布置一颗装着蜡烛和球的圣诞树。4.圣诞树的传说
对于圣诞树的由来,西方也有着另一个说法:有个善良的农民,在圣诞节那天,热情地招待了一名流浪的孩子,临别时,孩子折下一树枝插在地上,树枝立即长成大树,孩子指着这树对农民说:“每年今日,树上都长满礼物和球,以报答你们的盛情。”小孩走后,农民发现那树枝竟变成了一棵小树,他才明白自己接待的原来是一位上帝的使者。所以,今天人们所见的圣诞树上总是挂上了小礼物和球。5.圣诞树的传说
传说,有一位名叫弗乐伦亭的隐修圣人,住在德国亚尔萨斯的一个树林当中,他非常喜欢小孩子。有一年的圣诞节,他希望附近的小孩子,都能在一起快乐的玩,但是很贫穷,没有钱买孩子们喜爱的玩具和糖果,因此他为这件事很伤脑筋。一天早上,弗乐伦亭在树林中散步的时候,忽然看见一棵小杉树,树上堆满了雪,枝上挂着许多小冰条,经过太阳一照射,闪闪发光,非常的漂亮。他就把那棵树弄回来,种在盆里面。又在树林中捡一些野果子,再和上面粉,做成一些十字架,或星星形状的小饼,挂在树枝上面。又用一些小蜡烛,插在树枝上,把那棵树装扮得五光十色,非常的美观。到了圣诞夜晚,弗乐伦亭打起钟来,孩子们听到了,都跑到他的茅屋里,大家围着那棵树,手舞足蹈的唱着圣诞歌曲,然后弗乐伦亭把糕饼分给孩子们吃,让大家过了一个快乐的圣诞节。以后,这个习俗流传起来。
1837年,德国的海伦 公主,同法国的一位公爵结婚以后,圣诞树也随着她传到了巴黎。一八四一年,维多利亚的丈夫,把一棵圣诞树,放在温德莎宫门前。这种风俗由皇家传到贵族阶层,而后风行到了民间。
6.圣诞节英语作文
Today is Christmas. I went to school with an expectant heart. When I entered the classroom, the words "Merry Christmas!" came into my ears. Guan Zao"s self-study teacher Lu also smiled. Some students are still discussing the Christmas gifts they will get and guessing the surprises that the teacher will bring to everyone today.After English class, some good friends and I began to make Christmas trees. You cut paper, I painted and she pasted. We were very busy. Some skillful people are responsible for paper cutting. Be serious and be responsible for painting. Be careful and be responsible for pasting. The paper-cut also cut out beautiful snowflakes. I painted all kinds of colors: red, yellow, blue, green, very beautiful.
After lunch, the home school contact book was sent out. I saw Mr. Zhu write a Christmas message of "Merry Chris TMAs" on it. Every student should have it, I think. Sure enough, other students also happily pointed to their greetings to others. Bursts of happy laughter came from the classroom.
In the afternoon, while the host was arranging the blackboard, we started our "art paper cutting" again. Christmas trees were beautifully decorated with stars, bells, bows and gifts.
At the beginning of the class team activity, the host first let us play a few games: beating drums, passing flowers, passing them to the students, performing a program, we can add points to the large group. Li Yuhao"s performance moved his ears and made everyone laugh. Even Miss Zhu laughed at Mimi. The second game is to write "Merry Christmas" with my eyes closed. Although I don"t write as well as other groups, I"m still very happy. The third game is for you to compare and I"ll guess. The host writes a few words on the blackboard. The students who compare and draw should try their best to make the guessers guess what words are. They can speak, but they can"t say those words. In one group, Luo Yuzhen compared Luo Dongyang to guess. As a result, he only said "what is the classification of garbage?" Luo Dongyang guessed that it was environmental protection. What a surprise! The fourth game is the hug of love. Each group sends three people up. When the host says a number, just a few people hug together. Looking at many boys holding girls together in order to win their group, I wanted to laugh at the girls" embarrassed expression at that time. Later, the scores of the first group and the third group were the same. We wanted stone, scissors and paper. Whichever group won, the first in that group. Finally, our group won. Got a Christmas villain. Lovely Christmas villain, I like it very much.
The gifts Miss Zhu gave us were nougat she made and chocolate she bought. Although everyone has only one, we still understand the teacher and don"t care about anything.
After school, I came home full of harvest.
