圣诞节手抄报内容（英语的,）

It is interesting to see how different countries celebrate Christmas．We asked some of our friends and this is what they told us about their Christmas celebrations：
Belgium On Christmas Eve,it starts with a drink and “nibbles1)”,followed by a “starter” course such as seafood,and then stuffed turkey．The dessert is a kind of cake made with cream．Father Christmas is called “Saint Nicholas” and he brings presents to children on Dec ember 6th,“St．Nicholas Day,” a long time before Christmas．
Brazil Father Christmas is called Papai Noel．Many Christmas customs are similar to those in the USA or UK．For those who have enough money,a special Christmas meal will be chicken,turkey,ham,rice,salad,pork,fresh and dried fruits,often with beer．Poorer people will just have chicken and rice．
Finland Finnish people believe that Father Christmas（Santa Claus）lives in the north part of Finland called Korvatunturi,north of the Arctic Circle．People from all over the world send letters to Santa Claus in Finland．There is a even big tourist theme park called “Christmas Land” in the north of Finland,near to where they say that Father Christmas lives．Everyone cleans their houses ready for the three holy days of Christmas－－Christmas Eve,Christmas Day,and Boxing Day2)．Christmas Eve is very special,when people eat rice porridge3) and plum4) fruit juice in the morning．They will then decorate a spruce5) tree in the home．Many families will visit cemeteries and graveyards to place a candle onto the burial graves of family members．Cemeteries are very beautiful at Christmas－time．
France In France,everyone has a Christmas tree,sometimes decorated in the old way with red ribbons and real white wax candles．Fir6) trees in the garden are often decorated too,with lights on all night．Father Christmas is called Père Noel．The Christmas meal is an important family gathering with good meat and the best wine．Not everyone sends Christmas cards．
Germany Germans love to decorate their house sat Christmas．Many houses will have little wooden frames holding electric candles in their windows,and coloured pictures of paper or plastic which look beautiful from the outside at night．Father Christmas brings presents in the late afternoon of Christmas Eve（December 24th）,after people have been to a church meeting．The presents are then found under the Christmas tree．One person in the family will ring a bell and call everyone to come to the room．On Christmas Day,fish（carp7））or goose will be cooked．
Latvia Latvians believe that Father Christmas brings presents on each of the 12days of Christmas starting on Christmas Eve．Usually the presents are put under the family Christmas tree．The special Latvian Christmas Day meal is cooked brown peas with bacon（pork）sauce,small pies,cabbage and sausage．
Portugal People pretend that Father Christmas brings presents to children on Christmas Eve．The presents are left under the Christmas tree or in shoes by the fireplace．A special Christmas meal of salted dry cod－fish8) with boiled potatoes is eaten at midnight on Christmas Eve．
Russia In the days of the Soviet Union,Christmas was not celebrated very much．New Year was the important time－－when “Father Frost” brought presents to children．Now Christmas can be openly celebrated－－either on December25th；or more often on January 7th．This unusual date is because the Russian Orthodox church uses the old“Julian”calendar9) for religious celebration days．Special Christmas food includes cakes,pies and “meat dumplings．”
Sweden The most important day is Christmas Eve．A special Christmas meal is eaten on Christmas Eve－－ham（pork）,herring10) fish,and brown beans－－and this is the time when families give presents to each other．Many people attend a church meeting early on Christmas Day．随便摘点,开头结尾一定要.

圣诞节的作文（手抄报用）

　　难忘的圣诞节
　　印象中的圣诞节总是如此舒适怡人.印象中的12月全然没有冬日的凛冽,只存在春天的温暖.小学最后一束梅花开放,开放在梅花应当开的节日——圣诞.
　　每到这天降临,不论你是谁,桌上总会横七竖八地摆满贺卡,写满祝福的语句.远方被色彩的蜡笔涂抹,配上纷纷扬扬的大雪,献出圣诞节的纯真无邪.放学后,同学们莫不在小摊买彩带、买气球,冒着鹅毛大雪点缀教室和走过的每处路段.学校丧失往日的尊严,取而代之的是圣诞节浓郁的气氛,还有那久违了的安谧恬静,优雅芳香……
　　在那梅花开的季节中,无处不存在欢乐,把平日里激烈的竞争甩在脑后.小学洁白无瑕的圣诞节,大家齐心协力,在教室里外插满彩带鲜花,前来上学的伙伴也总会被欢笑声掩埋的.这笑不是愚人节的嘲笑,这笑不是儿童节的微笑,更不是胜利时惟我独尊的骄傲.再看看课桌上堆积如山的贺卡和同伴不厌其烦的“圣诞快乐”,一种如家般的暖流涌入心窝,令人倍觉温馨.这西方鲜花绽放的节日,估计传进东亚,也没什么两样罢!
　　圣诞节在记忆的波涛中总是弥撒着迷人的幽香,永远都是这样.刚刚玩完雪仗的我们,稚气十足,给圣诞节丰盛的佳肴再添一道美味.漫步街头,沉吟着“雪却输梅一段香”的名句里,踩着脚下未肯融化的寒雪,我们在领略大自然和历史带来的礼物.社区内圣诞树巍然屹立,五彩缤纷；霓虹灯闪烁不断.夜幕降临,城市被雪和绚丽的色彩所笼罩,月光也黯淡了.欣赏这难得的圣诞日的京城,我的思绪仿佛重回远古,同样是大雪纷飞的12月……
　　哦,圣诞,你这西方的移民者,曾有多少欢笑寄托在我们新一代年轻人身上?你是雪,腊梅开的时候默默地来,默默地去.你是风,无影无踪却引爆节日的笑声.你还是纯洁的心,在日益肮脏的角落越显越亮.你在雪地里掷下童稚的笑,融化片片雪花,融化人们内心深处的碎片.她的名字叫圣诞,她曾有的辉煌灿烂镌刻在我心底.记住了她的模样,更记住了她的微笑.在以往圣诞节幽雅的气氛中,谁不会受感染呢?依稀记得那笑声随腊梅开,随腊梅落.
　　那圣诞节的笑,现在我已经找不到了.
　　2009圣诞节作文：在国外的第一个圣诞节
　　到美国以前看过很多讲中国留学生在美国生活的书,其中印象最深刻,也是一般人心目中最典型的一个场景是,一个中国女孩在圣诞夜站在无人的街头,一面流泪,一面握着话筒给大洋彼岸的亲人打电话.我本来以为这也会发生在我的身上的,因为我的两个roommate都要到别的城市看望她们的亲戚,大大的apartment只留下我一个人.结果在平安夜那天中午,我的友好家庭开车过来接我到他们家里过节.
　　于是,我的平安夜就在我的友好家庭家里度过了,这真正是我第一个在国外的圣诞节,也是到美国以后第一次在老外家里住,真正是从头到尾看了老美怎么过圣诞节的.感觉呢,嗯,好玩是非常好玩,有几个年龄相仿的美国年轻人一起玩游戏,看录象(哎呀呀,他们家的basement有一个"家庭影院",效果比起当年我在华工的时候在计算机上看道班碟子是没有办法比的啦).唯一觉得受不了的是他们的圣诞食品.平安夜的晚餐除了一碗非常非常鲜的海鲜汤以外就只有烤面包.我正奇怪,我都吃不饱,他们家那个牛高马大的儿子是怎么吃出来的?紧接着就是圣诞的service,一家人来来回回唱了几首圣诞赞美诗(我当时感觉好饿,忍不住就四下张望!),然后好不容易结束了,就是全家每人念一段圣经,也是好长好长,我都不知道走神走到哪里去了.
　　好不容易结束了,我心想这下总该开桌了吧?结果是一桌子的cookie和shrimp,shrimp还不错,这个得承认.撤了cookie以后,还是dissert,那么甜,又不能吃多,吃的时候我都可以预料到,晚上我肯定会饿肚子的.本来今天还有turkeymeal的,我昨天晚上实在忍无可忍,就非闹着要人家开车送我回家住,理由是不习惯住在别人家里,实际上是赶紧回家吃点中国菜.
　　2009圣诞节作文：圣诞节
　　12月25日是圣诞节,妈妈告诉我：圣诞节并不是中国传统的节日,它是西方国家一年中最盛大的一个节日,相当于我国的春节.
　　来到大街上,每个角落都让人感受到过节的气氛.几乎所有的商场都摆着圣诞树,有的放在门口,有的摆在大厅.圣诞树呈塔形,穿着一件绿衣裳,身上挂着的一个个小铃铛,轻轻一碰,叮当、叮当发出动听的声音；金色的小灯,好像天上眨眼的星星；五颜六色的小灯笼,一闪一闪的,美丽极了!
　　快瞧!银行门口站着一位神气活现的“雪娃娃”.头戴一顶蓝帽子,身穿一件蓝马甲,手套和鞋也是蓝色的,胖乎乎的脸,弯弯的眉,圆溜溜的眼睛,像两颗晶莹的紫葡萄,尖尖的鼻子,是桔黄色,呈三角形,可掬的笑容,真是太可爱喽!我家小妹溜溜忍不住伸出她胖乎乎的小手,握住雪娃娃,还嫩声嫩气的说：“你好!你好!”
　　不过,最引人注目的还是依蝶商场大厅的一旁,用白色泡沫搭成的一个大台子上面所展示的一幅美丽图画,似乎在向人们讲述一个童话故事：在一栋漂亮的红房子里,七个小矮人快活的生活在一起.圣诞节到了,他们蹦蹦跳跳跑出家门,在雪地里滚雪球、打雪仗、堆雪人……,装饰了三棵圣诞树,其中有一棵高约四米,穿着金色的外衣,浑身缀满了“蓝宝石”,璀灿夺目.这时,只听蹄嗒、蹄嗒……,由远而近,圣诞老爷爷满载礼物而来,他们高兴得手舞足蹈.
　　好多人都在此留影,我也不例外,一不小心还被弄得满身是“雪”!

篇六:圣诞节板报

关于圣诞节的英语手抄报

圣诞节的由来2.
据说有一位农民在一个风雪交加的圣诞夜里接待了一个饥寒交迫的小孩,让他吃了一顿丰盛的圣诞晚餐,这个孩子告别时折了一根杉树枝插在地上并祝福说：“年年此日,礼物满枝,留此美丽的杉村,报答你的好意.”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.这个故事就成为圣诞树的来源.在西方,不论是否基督徒,过圣诞节时都要准备一棵圣诞树,以增加节日的欢乐气氛.圣诞树一般是用杉柏之类的常绿树做成,象征生命长存.树上装饰着各种灯烛、彩花、玩具、星星,挂上各种圣诞礼物.圣诞之夜,人们围着圣诞树唱歌跳舞,尽情欢乐

So much in love we weep as angels might.

What is Christmas?
The word Christmas comes from the words Cristes maesse,or "Christ"s Mass." Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus for members of the Christian religion.Most historians peg the first celebration of Christmas to Rome in 336 A.D.
Christmas is both a holiday and a holy day.In America it is one of the biggest event of the year (especially for kids),and for members of the Christian religions it is an important day on the religious calendar.
The federal government,all state governments,all schools/colleges/universities and the vast majority of businesses in America give employees one or two days off at Christmas,making it an important holiday (other federal holidays are:New Year"s Day,Martin Luther King Day,Washington"s Birthday,Memorial Day,Independence Day,Labor Day,Columbus Day,Veterans Day,Thanksgiving).In the Roman Catholic calendar,Christmas is one of six holy feast days celebrated in America,the others being:Circumcision (New Year"s Day),Ascension,Assumption (Mary"s assumption into heaven,August 15),All Saints (November 1),and the Immaculate Conception (December 8).

圣诞节的来历（中英文版）
Christmas is a Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. No one knows the exact date of Christ"s birth, but most Christians observe Christmas on December 25. On this day, many go to church, where they take part in special religious services. During the Christmas season, they also exchange gifts and decorate their homes with holly, mistletoe, and Christmas trees. The word Christmas comes from Cristes maesse, an early English phrase that means Mass of Christ. The story of Christmas comes chiefly from the Gospels of Saint Luke and Saint Matthew in the New Testament.
The history of Christmas dates back over 4000 years. Many of our Christmas traditions were celebrated centuries before the Christ child was born. The 12 days of Christmas, the bright fires, the yule log, the giving of gifts, carnivals(parades) with floats, carolers who sing while going from house to house, the holiday feasts, and the church processions can all be traced back to the early Mesopotamians.
Many of these traditions began with the Mesopotamian celebration of New Years. The Mesopotamians believed in many gods, and as their chief god-Marduk. Each year as winter arrived it was believed that Marduk would do battle with the monsters of chaos. To assist Marduk in his struggle the Mesopotamians held a festival for the New Year. This was Zagmuk, the New Year"s festival that lasted for 12 days.
The Persians and the Babylonians celebrated a similar festival called the Sacaea. Part of that celebration included the exchanging of places, the slaves would become the masters and the masters were to obey. The ancient Greeks held a festival similar to that of the Zagmuk/Sacaea festivals to assist their god Kronos who would battle the god Zeus and his Titans.
The Roman"s celebrated their god Saturn. Their festival was called Saturnalia which began the middle of December and ended January 1st. With cries of "Jo Saturnalia!" the celebration would include masquerades in the streets, big festive meals, visiting friends, and the exchange of good-luck gifts called Strenae (lucky fruits). The Romans decked their halls with garlands of laurel and green trees lit with candles. Again the masters and slaves would exchange places.
"Jo Saturnalia!" was a fun and festive time for the Romans, but the Christians thought it an abomination to honor the pagan god. The early Christians wanted to keep the birthday of their Christ child a solemn and religious holiday, not one of cheer and merriment as was the pagan Saturnalia.
Some legends claim that the Christian "Christmas" celebration was invented to compete against the pagan celebrations of December. The 25th was not only sacred to the Romans but also the Persians whose religion Mithraism was one of Christianity"s main rivals at that time. The Church eventually was successful in taking the merriment, lights, and gifts from the Saturanilia festival and bringing them to the celebration of Christmas.
The exact day of the Christ child"s birth has never been pinpointed. Traditions say that it has been celebrated since the year 98 AD. In 137 AD the Bishop of Rome ordered the birthday of the Christ Child celebrated as a solemn feast. In 350 AD another Bishop of Rome, Julius I, choose December 25th as the observance of Christmas.
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 be delivered. 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 knows 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.
The custom of giving gifts to relatives and friends on a special day in winter probably began in ancient Rome and northern Europe. In these regions, people gave each other small presents as part of their year-end celebrations.
In the 1800"s, two more Christmas customs became popular--decorating Christmas trees and sending Christmas cards to relatives and friends. Many well-known Christmas carols, including ``Silent Night" and ``Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," were composed during this period. In the United States and other countries, Santa Claus replaced Saint Nicholas as the symbol of gift giving.
The word Xmas is sometimes used instead of Christmas. This tradition began in the early Christian church. In Greek, X is the first letter of Christ"s name. It was frequently used as a holy symbol.
“圣诞节”这个名称是“基督弥撒”的缩写.弥撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式.耶诞节是一个宗教节.我们把它当作耶稣的诞辰来庆祝,因而又名耶诞节.这一天,世界所有的基督教会都举行特别的礼拜仪式.但是有很多圣诞节的欢庆活动和宗教并无半点关联.交换礼物,寄圣诞卡,这都使圣诞节成为一个普天同庆的日子.
圣诞节是基督教世界最大的节日.4世纪初,1月6日是罗马帝国东部各教会纪念耶稣降生和受洗的双重节日、称为“主显节”Epiphany,亦称“显现节”即上帝通过耶稣向世人显示自己.当时只有耶路撒冷的教会例外,那里只纪念耶稣的诞生而不纪念耶稣的受洗.
后来历史学家们在罗马基督徒习用的日历中发现公元 354年12月25日页内记录着：“基督降生在犹大的伯利恒.”经过研究,一般认为12月25日作为圣诞节可能开始于公元336年的罗马教会.12月25日原来是波斯太阳神（即光明之神）密特拉（Mithra）的诞辰,是一个异教徒节日,同时太阳神也是罗马国教众神之一.这一天又是罗马历书的冬至节,崇拜太阳神的异教徒都把这一天当作春天的希望,万物复苏的开始.可能由于这个原因,罗马教会才选择这一天作为圣诞节.这是教会初期力图把异教徒的风俗习惯基督教化的措施之一.后来,虽然大多数教会都接受12月25日为圣诞节,但又因为各地教会使用的历书不同,具体日期不能统一,于是就把12月24日到第二年的1月6日定为圣诞节节期（Christmas Tide）,各地教会可以根据当地具体情况在这段节期之内庆祝圣诞节.
