LESSON 3　MEMORIES OF CHRISTMAS

I still remember the last Christmas Granny spent with us.[1]It began in the middle of November on a cold, windy day.I remember the wind because Granny's grey hair was a mess① when she arrived.That was also the day Granny moved in②.Somehow③， at the time, I didn't know she was sick.Maybe I was too young, maybe she hid it too well, or maybe I was just too excited that Christmas was on the way④.

After Granny moved in, she spent most of her time on the brown sofa by the fire⑤.Sometimes she was quiet, but she seemed happy.When I wrote a letter to Father Christmas telling him about the presents I wanted, Granny made an effort to⑥ help me.[2]Her hand was slightly⑦ shaky, but she wrote “Father Christmas, the North Pole⑧” on the envelope⑨.

In December, our excitement grew each day — lights appeared in the streets, Christmas cards arrived, and there was snow everywhere.Granny and I made sugar biscuits, stuffed⑩ the turkey and then I sat on my granny's lap⑪ and we sang Christmas songs.My favourite song was Frosty⑫ the Snowman and I loved the bit that went “Thumpety­thump­thump, thumpety­thump­thump, look at Frosty go！” Granny had patience⑬ to sing it over and over⑭ again.

On Christmas Eve⑮， Granny took a seat⑯ by the fire as we put up⑰ the Christmas tree.[3]I hung most of the decorations on the branches⑱.

 “That's the most beautiful tree I've ever seen，[4]”Granny said.

Then she started singing, “Oh, Christmas tree, oh, Christmas tree, you fill my heart with music...”

Before bed, Granny and I left a plate⑲ of sugar biscuits out for Father Christmas, and put a stocking at the end of my bed.I remember Granny sitting on my bed and singing softly until I fell asleep.

[1]Granny spent with us为定语从句，修饰先行词Christmas，省略了关系代词which/that。

[2]句中When引导时间状语从句，从句中telling him about the presents I wanted为动词的­ing形式作状语，其中I wanted为省略了关系代词的定语从句，修饰先行词the presents，关系代词在从句中作宾语时可省略。

[3] as we put up the Christmas tree为as引导的时间状语从句。

[4] I've ever seen为省略了that/which的定语从句，先行词被最高级所修饰，定语从句一般用现在完成时。

我仍记得奶奶和我们一起度过的最后一个圣诞节。 它开始于11月中旬的一个寒风刺骨的日子。 我记得那天的风，因为奶奶到达时她的灰头发乱作一团。 那天也是奶奶搬进来的日子。 不知道为什么，当时我并不知道她病了。 或许是因为我太小了，或许是她隐藏得太好了，或许可能是我对圣诞节的到来太兴奋了。

奶奶搬过来以后，大多数时间都待在炉火旁棕色的沙发上。 有时她很安静，但她看起来很高兴。当我写信给圣诞老人，告诉他我想要的礼物时，奶奶尽力帮助我。 她的手有点发抖，但她在信封上写上了“圣诞老人，北极”。

到了12月，我们的兴奋与日俱增——街上的彩灯都亮起来了，圣诞卡片也都收到了，当然还有随处可见的雪景。 奶奶和我做了糖饼干，给火鸡填了馅，然后我坐在奶奶的腿上，我们一起唱圣诞歌。 我最喜欢的歌是《雪人雪孩子》，我喜欢那伴随着“砰砰砰，砰砰砰砰，看弗罗斯蒂走！”的节拍。奶奶耐心地一遍又一遍地唱。

在平安夜，奶奶靠着炉火坐着，我们把圣诞树立起来。 我把大部分的装饰品都挂在树枝上。

“那是我见过的最漂亮的树，”奶奶说。

然后她开始唱：“哦，圣诞树，哦，圣诞树，你用音乐填满了我的心……”

睡前，奶奶和我为圣诞老人准备了一盘糖饼干，并在我床头放了一只长袜。我记得奶奶坐在我的床边，轻轻地唱着歌直到我睡着。

My stocking was full of small toys and sweets on Christmas morning, and there were presents under the tree.I was on my best behaviour⑳ as we opened the presents.Later, Granny called me over.

“I have something special for you，” Granny whispered.“It's for all your treasures.Merry Christmas.”

It was a music box with a ballet dancer inside.

After breakfast, Auntie Kath and my cousin David arrived.While Mum, Dad and Auntie Kath got lunch ready, David and I played outside.We raced around the garden and rolled a big snowball to make a lovely snowman.Granny stayed inside by the fire.I remember catching her eye through the window.

“Come outside, Granny，” I called, but she just waved.

⑳behaviour n．行为，举止

on one's best behaviour 尽可能好的表现

whisper vi.& vt.低声说，低语

merry adj.快乐的

ballet n．芭蕾舞剧，芭蕾舞表演

roll vt.使成筒形(球形)

n．一卷；面包卷

catch sb's eye 遇到某人的目光；吸引某人的注意

wave vi.& vt.挥手；招手

[译文参考]

圣诞节早上，我的袜子里装满了小玩具和糖果，而且树下也有礼物。 拆礼物时，我表现得特别好。 后来，奶奶叫我过来。

“我有个特别的东西给你，”奶奶小声说道，“是送给你的礼物。 圣诞快乐！”

那是一个音乐盒，里面有一个芭蕾舞演员。

早饭后，凯斯姑妈和我的表弟大卫来了。 当妈妈、爸爸和凯斯姑妈准备午饭时，我和大卫在外面玩。我们在花园里跑来跑去，还滚了一个大雪球堆了一个可爱的雪人。 奶奶待在炉火旁边。我记得当时从窗户里看到她的眼睛。

“到外面来，奶奶，”我叫她，但她只是挥了挥手。

Lunch was late, but it was a loud and exciting affair.We put on silly paper hats and had a big turkey with potatoes, followed by Christmas pudding.[5]David put so much pudding in his mouth that he couldn't swallow.[6]

 “How's the pudding？” Granny asked.

“Mmmph, mmmph, mmmph，” said David.

Auntie Kath didn't think it was funny, but the rest of us did.Granny laughed so much that her paper hat fell off.

A few weeks after that Christmas, Granny passed away.I think of her often though, especially at Christmas.Each year，I take out the music box she gave me.[7]Inside I keep Granny's paper hat and the letter she helped me write that Christmas. [8]Mum gave the letter back to me some years ago when I no longer believed in Father Christmas.When I think about what makes Christmas so magical, it's not just gifts and Father Christmas that come to mind.[9]It's also my memory of Granny.Now I'm the one who makes sugar biscuits each year, and I always make one in a G­shape — G for Granny.

[5]followed by Christmas pudding为过去分词短语作状语。

[6]本句为so ...that ...(如此……以至于……)结构。

[7]she gave me 为定语从句，修饰先行词the music box，定语从句中省略了关系代词that/which.

[8]she helped me write that Christmas为定语从句，修饰先行词the letter；定语从句中省略了关系代词that/which。

[9]本句为主从复合句，其中when引导时间状语从句，what引导宾语从句，主句it's not just ...that come to mind为强调句型，强调主语not just gifts and Father Christmas。

affair n．事件

put on 戴上，穿上

pass away去世

think of 记起，想起；考虑

no longer不再

no longer＝not ... longer

believe in相信……存在

come to mind 想到，记起

memory n. 记忆，回忆

[译文参考]

午餐晚了，但这是一件吵闹而又令人兴奋的大事。 我们戴上傻傻的纸帽子，吃塞有土豆的大火鸡，随后又吃圣诞布丁。大卫在嘴里塞了太多布丁，以至于都吞不下去了。

“布丁怎么样？”奶奶问。

“唔，唔，唔，”大卫说。

凯斯姑妈不觉得有趣，但我们其他人都觉得有趣。 奶奶开怀大笑，连纸帽子都掉了下来。

那个圣诞节后的几个星期，奶奶去世了。 但我经常想起她，尤其是在圣诞节。 每年，我都会拿出她送给我的音乐盒。在里面我保存着奶奶的纸帽子和她在那个圣诞节帮我写的信。 几年前，当我不再相信圣诞老人的存在时，妈妈把这封信还给了我。当我思考着是什么让圣诞节如此吸引人时，脑海中浮现的不仅仅是圣诞礼物和圣诞老人，还有我对奶奶的追忆。 现在我每年都做糖饼干，而且我总是做一个G形的饼干——G代表奶奶。
