╭☆╯单词天天学╰☆╮ 圣诞特别版!!
每年的12月25日,是基督教徒纪念耶稣诞生的日子,称为圣诞节。
从12月24日于翌年1月6日为圣诞节节期。节日期间,各国基督教徒都举行隆重的纪念仪式。圣诞节本来是基督教徒的节日,由于人们格外重视,它便成为一个全民性的节日,是西方国家一年中最盛大的节日,可以和新年相提并论,类似我国过春节。
The Origin of Christmas
Christmas Day-December 25-which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, the founder of the Christian religion, is the biggest and best-loved holiday in the United States.
According to the Bible, the holy book of Christians, God decided to allow his only son, Jesus Christ, to be born to a human mother and live on earth so that people could understand God better and learn to love God and each other more. "Christmas"- meaning "celebration of Christ "- honors the time when Jesus was born to a young Jewish woman Mary.
Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, a carpenter, but before they came together, she was found to be with child. Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago is not known, the calendar on the supposed date divides all time into B.C. (Before Christ )and A.D. ( a Latin phrase, Anno Domini, "in the year of our Lord.")For the first 300 years, Jesus' birthday was celebrated on different dates. Finally, in the year 354, church leaders chose December 25 as his birthday.
翻译下面划线的部分。 有100沪元啊!!!答案下期公布!
圣诞树:
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,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的圣诞树。不过,西方关于圣诞树的来历流行着另一种说法: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,以报答你们的盛情。所以,今天人们所见的圣诞树上总是挂满了小礼物。
圣诞大餐:
圣诞节作为一个隆重庆祝节日,不能少了好吃美味食品。圣诞节火鸡大餐就是例牌主菜了,以前的人们或许会用微波炉自己做,现在的人们过节好多就是在外面餐馆里用餐了,商家们也会利用机会赚顾客们的钱,当然还有许多圣诞节食品,姜饼、糖果等等了。
圣诞PARTY:
圣诞节必不可少的节目,有家庭式的,朋友式的,情人式的各种歌样PARTY。一种友情,亲情,爱情聚会的好时光。戴着圣诞帽,唱着圣诞歌,说说大家的圣诞愿望。
圣诞帽:
那是一顶红色帽子,据说晚上戴上睡觉除了睡得安稳和有点暖外,第二天你还会发现在帽子里多了点心爱的人送的礼物。在狂欢夜它更是全场的主角,无论你去到那个角落,都会看到各式各样的红帽子,有的还有帽尖发亮的,有的是金光闪闪的。
圣诞袜:
最早以前是一对红色的大袜子,多大都可以,因为圣诞袜是要用来装礼物的,小朋友最喜欢的东西,晚上他们会将自己的袜子挂在床边,等待第二天早上的收礼。要是有人圣诞节送小汽车那怎么办?那最好就叫他写张支票放进袜子里好了。
圣诞卡:
是祝贺圣诞及新年的贺卡,上面印着关于耶稣降生故事的图画,以及“庆祝圣诞、新年快乐”之类的祝愿的话。
报佳音:
圣诞夜指12月24日晚至25日晨。教会组织一些圣诗班(或由信徒自发地组成)挨门挨户地在门口或窗下唱圣诞颂歌,叫作“报佳音”,意思是再现当年天使向伯利恒郊外的牧羊人报告耶稣降生的喜讯。
报佳音的人称为Christmas Waits,这项活动往往要进行到天亮,人数越来越多,歌声越来越大,大街小巷满城尽是歌声。
颂歌:
圣诞节时唱的赞美诗称为“圣诞颂歌”。圣诞颂歌很多,曲谱多取自著名音乐家的名作。经常唱的有《普世欢腾,救主下降》、(Joy to the World!)、《天使歌唱在高天》(Angels WeHave Heard on High)、《缅想当年时方夜半》(It Cametbe Midnight Clear)、《美哉小城, 小伯利恒》(O Little Town of Bethlehem)、 《牧人闻信》(While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks)、《远远在马槽里》(Away in the Manger )、《荣耀天军》(Angels,from the Realms of Glory)、《听 啊,天使唱高声》(Hark! the Herald Angels Sing)、《圣诞钟声》 (I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day)、等等其中以《平安夜》 (Silent Night)最为有名。
据说,1818年在奥地利一个名叫奥本多夫的小镇上住着一个默默无闻的乡村牧师一摩尔。这年圣诞节,摩尔发现教堂里管风琴的管于被老鼠咬坏了,修理已经来不及了。怎么庆祝圣诞呢?摩尔为此闷闷不乐。他忽然想起《路加福音》里记载着,耶稣降生时,天使向伯利恒郊外的牧羊人报佳音后,高唱颂歌:“在至高之处荣耀归于上帝,在地上平安归于他所喜悦的人。”他灵机一动,根据这两句经文写成一首赞美诗,取名《平安夜》。
摩尔写好歌词后拿给本镇小学教师葛路伯看,请他谱曲。葛路怕读完歌词很受感动,谱好曲,第二天在教堂里演唱,大受欢迎。后来有两个商人路过这里,学会了这首歌,他们为普鲁士国王威廉四世演唱,威廉四世听后大力赞赏,下令把《平安夜》定为全国教堂过圣诞节时必唱的歌曲之一。
此外,有条件的教堂每年圣诞节时还会演唱德国著名音乐家韩德尔的《弥赛亚》(又名《救世主》)等音乐作品,通过这些音乐崇拜活动来加强节日的喜庆气氛。
圣诞老人:
圣诞老人原指公元4世纪时小亚细亚专区的主教尼古拉,他因和蔼可亲慷慨济贫万里闻名。到了6世纪,东方把他尊称为圣尼古拉。由于民间有关尼古拉的传说中,都联系到少年儿童和礼物,从此,圣诞老人便成为专门在圣诞节向孩子们送礼物的慈祥老人的形象。到了18世纪,通过文学和绘画,圣诞老人逐渐成为身穿红外衣的白胡子、白眉毛老人形象。
圣诞礼物:
据《圣经》记载,来自东方的圣人在耶稣降生的时候赠送礼物,这就是圣诞老人为儿童赠送礼品习俗的由来。英国少年儿童在圣诞前夕把长统袜子放在壁炉旁,相信圣诞老人在夜里会从大烟囱下来,给他们带来满袜子的礼物。法国的少年儿童把鞋放在门口,让“圣婴来时把礼物放在鞋里面。”

圣诞树:Christmas tree
圣诞大餐:Christmas food
圣诞PARTY:Christmas party
圣诞帽:Christmas hat
圣诞袜:Christmas stockings
圣诞卡:Christmas card
报佳音:Christmas Waits
颂歌:Christmas carol
