一、聖誕節的發展
眾所周知，聖誕節是為了慶祝耶穌的出生而設立的，但《聖經》中卻從未提及耶穌出生在這一天，甚至很多歷史學家認為耶穌是出生在春天。直到3世紀，12月25日才被官方定為聖誕節。盡管如此，還是有一些東正教把1月6日、7日定為聖誕節。
聖誕節本是宗教節日。十九世紀，聖誕卡的流行、聖誕老人的出現，使聖誕節開始漸漸流行起來。聖誕慶祝習俗在北歐流行後，結合著北半球冬季的聖誕裝飾也出現了。
十九世紀初發展至中葉，整個歐洲、美洲開始過起了聖誕節。並衍生出了相應的聖誕文化。
二、聖誕節對中國的影響
聖誕節對於沒有基督文化背景的中國人來說，只是提供了購物或是又一個出國遊玩的時間點罷了。中國國內眾多城市都有了聖誕狂歡，商場、超市等在聖誕前後都有大型促銷活動。也催生出了一個現象：「浙江義烏，號稱世界聖誕飾品之都。」全球70%的聖誕飾品都來自這里。
2011年聖誕前後，眾多中國人紛涌至英國各大城市購物，英國國內所售奢侈品的近三分之一都被中國人買走。在這種令人乍舌的購買力引導之下，不少國家在聖誕節專門推出針對中國人的有消費優惠的旅遊計劃。
而英國倫敦更是有不少商家在聖誕節前後，專門僱傭會說普通話的店員，幫助中國顧客選購商品。2010年，中國內地遊客在英國消費總量超過10億英鎊，英國本國居民的奢侈品消費需求則不足中國遊客的一半。

聖誕節的傳說：童貞女受孕上帝之子
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 Christian World.
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.
參考譯文（來自互聯網）
12月25日的聖誕節是慶祝基督教創始人耶穌基督生日的日子，是基督教世界最大的、人們最喜愛的節日。
據基督教徒的聖書《聖經》說，上帝決定讓他的獨生子耶穌基督投生人間，找個母親，然後就在人間生活，以便人們能更好地了解上帝、學習熱愛上帝和更好地相互熱愛。「聖誕節」的意思是「慶祝基督」，慶祝一個年輕的猶太婦女瑪麗婭生下耶穌的時刻。
瑪麗婭已和木匠約瑟夫訂婚。可是，在他們同居之前，約瑟夫發現瑪麗婭已懷孕。因為約瑟夫是個正派的人，又不想把這件事說出去讓她丟臉，所以他想悄悄地和她分手。
他正在考慮這事時，上帝的天使出現在他的夢中，對他說，「不要嘀咕了，把瑪麗婭娶回家。她懷的孩子來自聖靈。她將生下個男孩子，你們給孩子起名叫耶穌，因為他將從罪惡中拯救人們。」
盡管耶穌的確切生日並不清楚，大約是在2000年前，但是日歷按著假定日期把時間分為公元前（耶穌基督誕生前）和公元後（A.D. 是拉丁文縮寫，意思是「有了我們主--耶穌的年代」）。在公元後的頭三百年間，耶穌的生日是在不同的日子慶祝的。最後，在公元354年，教堂的領導人把12月25日定為耶穌基督的生日。
The History of Christmas
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 - Mark. Each year as winter arrived it was believed that Mark would do battle with the monsters of chaos. To assist Mark 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 Mesopotamian king would return to the temple of Mark and swear his faithfulness to the god. The traditions called for the king to die at the end of the year and to return with Mark to battle at his side.
To spare their king, the Mesopotamians used the idea of a "mock" king. A criminal was chosen and dressed in royal clothes. He was given all the respect and privileges of a real king. At the end of the celebration the "mock" king was stripped of the royal clothes and slain, sparing the life of the real king.
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.
Early Europeans believed in evil spirits, witches, ghosts and trolls. As the Winter Solstice approached, with its long cold nights and short days, many people feared the sun would not return. Special rituals and celebrations were held to welcome back the sun.
In Scandinavia ring the winter months the sun would disappear for many days. After thirty-five days scouts would be sent to the mountain tops to look for the return of the sun. When the first light was seen the scouts would return with the good news. A great festival would be held, called the Yuletide, and a special feast would be served around a fire burning with the Yule log. Great bonfires would also be lit to celebrate the return of the sun. In some areas people would tie apples to branches of trees to remind themselves that spring and summer would return.
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 though 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.
But as Christianity spread they were alarmed by the continuing celebration of pagan customs and Saturnalia among their converts. At first the Church forbid this kind of celebration. But it was to no avail. Eventually it was decided that the celebration would be tamed and made into a celebration fit for the Christian Son of God.
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.

聖誕節來歷：
每年12月25日是全世界大多數基督徒紀念耶穌誕生的日子。
教會開始並無聖誕節，約在耶穌升天後百餘年內才有。據說：第一個聖誕節是在公元138年，由羅馬主教聖克里門倡議舉行。而教會史載第一個聖誕節則在公元336年。由於聖經未明記耶穌生於何時，故各地聖誕節日期各異。直到公元440年，才由羅馬教廷定12月25日為聖誕節。公元1607年，世界各地教會領袖在伯利恆聚會，進一步予以確定，從此世界大多數的基督徒均以12月25日為聖誕節。其實哪一天並不要緊，重要的是應該知道它是為紀念救主耶穌降生。
由於聖經記載耶穌生於夜間，故傳統稱12月24日夜為"聖誕夜"或"平安夜"。
耶穌的降生，有舊約先知預言："必有童女懷孕生子，給他起名叫以馬內利（意思為'上帝與我們同在'）。"（以賽亞書7章14節，聖經下同）
耶穌降生時，有天使報信："不要懼怕，我給你們大喜的信息，是關乎萬民的；因今天在大衛的城裡，為你們生了救主，就是主基督。你們要看見一個嬰孩，包著布，卧在馬槽里，那就是記號了。"（路加福音2章10-12節）
耶穌降生時，有博士朝拜，"他們看見那星就大大地歡喜。進了房子，看見小孩子和他母親馬利亞，就俯伏拜那小孩子，揭開寶盒，手拿黃金、乳香、沒葯為禮物獻給他。"（馬太福音2章10-11節）
耶穌，意指"上帝拯救"，因為聖經說："世人都犯了罪，虧缺了上帝的榮耀。"（羅馬書3章23節）罪使人離開生命的源頭，宇宙萬物的主宰。罪使人失去公義、仁愛，變得自私、驕傲、貪婪、邪惡。罪破壞人與上帝、人與人之間和睦的關系，使人活在無可奈何的痛苦之中。罪使人將來要面對永遠的刑罰和痛苦，"人人都有一死，死後且有審判。"（希伯來書9章27節）因為上帝是聖潔、公義的！
但是，上帝又是慈愛的主，他賜給世人自己的獨生子--耶穌基督，成為人的樣式（就是聖誕），作我們的救贖主，他要將自己的百姓從罪惡里救出來。（馬太福音1章21節）他代替了我們的軟弱，擔當了我們的罪的刑罰。"上帝使我們眾人的罪孽都歸到他身上"，（以賽亞書53章6節）為我們的罪釘死在十字架上。
今天，只要你悔改自己的罪，相信他，接受他做你個人的救主，你的罪就被赦免了，你與上帝就恢復了那起初和睦的關系，你就得了永遠的生命。今天你接受耶穌在你的心裡，今天就是你的聖誕節，願上帝今年賜給你一個特別的聖誕節！
各國聖誕節習俗：
法國法國中部的色日爾斯地方，每年聖誕節前後幾天必降大雪，白雪皚皚，令人清新。在西方人眼裡，白色聖誕是一種吉祥。在法國，馬槽是最富有特色的聖誕標志，因為相傳耶穌是誕生在馬槽旁的。人們大唱頌贊耶穌的聖誕歌之後，必須開懷暢飲，香檳和白蘭地是法國傳統的聖誕美酒。
芬蘭芬蘭在12月聖誕節前後，漫山遍野都是怒放的紫羅蘭，掩映在白色的大地上，望去一片紫紅色，紫色聖誕使人心曠神怡。
英國和德國英國人和德國人一樣，聖誕節喝啤酒，吃烤鵝，他們更喜歡利用聖誕節假日外出旅遊。
美國美國人過聖誕節著重家庭布置，安置聖誕樹，在襪子中塞滿禮物，吃以火雞為主的聖誕大菜，舉行家庭舞會。
瑞士瑞士人在聖誕節前4個星期，就將4支巨型的蠟燭點燃，放在由樹枝裝飾成的一個環里，每周點1支，當點燃第4支後，聖誕節就到了。
丹麥丹麥人對不合意的聖誕禮物，可去商店兌換價格相似的其他商品。
澳大利亞澳大利亞是南半球的國家之一。12月底，正當西歐各國在寒風呼嘯中歡度聖誕節時，澳大利亞正是熱不可耐的仲夏時節。因此在澳大利亞過聖誕節，到處可以看見光著上身汗水涔涔的小夥子和穿超短裙的姑娘，與商店櫥窗里精心布置的冬日雪景、掛滿雪花的聖誕樹和穿紅棉襖的聖誕老人，構成澳大利亞特有的節日圖景。這種酷暑和嚴冬景象的強烈對比，恐怕在西方國家是獨一無二的。父母給子女最好的聖誕禮物，莫過於一副小水劃。聖誕節弄潮是澳大利亞的一大特徵。節日晚上，帶著飲料到森林裡舉行「巴別居」野餐。人們用石頭壘的露天灶中用枯樹枝生火、上面架一塊鐵板，把香腸、牛肉、鮮魚等放上去煎。吃飽喝足後，就跳起「迪斯科」或「袋鼠舞」，一直鬧到深夜才結束。喝醉了的，便往草地上一躺，在如雷的鼾聲中迎接聖誕老人的蒞臨。
波蘭在波蘭每年12月25日、26日舉行，家家戶戶都要裝飾聖誕樹，大街小巷都有聖誕樹上的裝飾品出賣。節日里親友之間相互祝賀，互贈禮品，表示友好。晚間吃飯時桌布下邊要放一些草，以示耶穌的降生。晚飯很豐富，但不能吃肉。夜間12時後，全家去教堂禮拜。聖誕節期間，一般不到別人家中做客，但主人盛情邀請者例外。
保加利亞據保加利亞的歷法，聖誕節是靈魂出沒、妖邪猖狂的日子。因此，人們要藉助火來驅妖鎮邪。聖誕節前夜，家家都燃起火堆，一直燃到天亮，不得熄滅，否則會招來橫禍。由男人取聖誕木點火進屋並高聲念道：「聖誕節降臨，牛、羊、豬、馬長滿圈，麥苗出滿壠，人人走好運。」在屋裡等候的人則齊聲回答：「阿門！」

❺ 聖誕節的英語介紹
聖誕節的英語介紹：
Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christ Mass", which originated from the Lunar New Year celebration in ancient Rome and has nothing to do with Christianity. After the popularity of Christianity in the Roman Empire, the Holy See drifted this folk festival into the Christian system to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
But it is not Jesus'birthday on Christmas Day, because the Bible does not record when Jesus was born, nor does it mention such a festival, which is the result of the absorption of ancient Roman mythology by Christianity.
聖誕節的漢語介紹：
聖誕節又稱耶誕節，譯名為「基督彌撒」，它源自古羅馬人迎接新年的農神節，與基督教本無關系。在基督教盛行羅馬帝國後，教廷隨波逐流地將這種民俗節日納入基督教體系，同時以慶祝耶穌的降生。
但在聖誕節這天不是耶穌的生辰，因為《聖經》未有記載耶穌具體生於哪天，同樣沒提到過有此種節日，是基督教吸收了古羅馬神話的結果。

樹干似的蛋糕是著名的法國聖誕美食。還未發明電力以前，法國人以一棵好柴作為聖誕禮物。法國人天性浪漫，連美食的起緣也浪漫過人：從前有一個買不起聖誕禮物的年青人，在森林撿了一段木頭送給情人，不但贏得芳心，而且從此平步青雲。因此，樹干蛋糕也成為祝願來年好運的象徵。
三、沙灘宴

❻ 聖誕節的介紹,要英文的!
Christmas is Britain's most popular holiday. Its traditions and early ceremonies were rooted in pagan beliefs and date back hundreds of years. They are still part of contemporary Christmas celebrations.
The Druids, for example, honoured the mistletoe in their religion and sacrificial rites The red berry of the holly was believed to protect one against witchcraft. Ivy symbolised immortality. The Vikings introced the Yule log which used to be burnt in honour of God Thor. The English adapted this practice for Christmas and today's (electric) Christmas candle is a holdover from baronial days.
The custom of sending Christmas cards to friends and family originated in Britain, too. In 1843 John Calcott Horsley designed the first one for Sir Henry Cole. Thus began a real spread of sending Christmas cards and this practice soon became an established traditon. Favoured designs were Christmas feasts, church bells, plum and turkey as well as religious themes. Every year more than a billion Christmas cards are now sent in the United Kingdom. Many of them are sold in aid for charities.
Since 1840 the decorated and illuminated Christmas tree has gained popularity in England. Prince Albert brought this rite over from Germany. In 1848 the Illustrated London News published a picture of the Royal Family around one. The English families followed the Royal example and it can truly be called a Victorian innovation. Each year a giant Christmas tree is set up and decorated near the statue of Lord Nelson in Trafalgar Square. It commemorates Anglo-Norwegian cooperation ring World War II.
On Christmas Eve carols are often sung by groups of singers walking from house to house, and children hang a stocking on the fireplace or at the foot of their bed for Father Christmas to fill. Caroling dates back to the Middle Ages when beggars were seeking for money, food or drink wandering the streets singing holiday songs.
On Christmas Day gifts are opened in the morning. Later the family will gather for the traditional Christmas dinner consisting of Brussels sprouts, fried potatoes with roast turkey, roast beef or goose. Sweet mince pie or Christmas pudding is served for dessert.
The pudding might contain coins or lucky charms for children. For afternoon tea Christmas cake is offered. It is rich baked fruit cake with marzipan and icing. A party favourite are Christmas crackers. There will be one to each plate on the Christmas dinner table. A Christmas cracker is a brightly coloured paper tube, twisted on both ends and filled with a party hat, a riddle and a toy.
The annual broadcasting of the Queen's Christmas Message is on Christmas Day afternoon. In 1932 King George brought this custom into being.
Boxing Day is on December 26th. This day takes its name from a former custom giving a Christmas box to delivery men and trades people called regularly through the year. Nowadays stmen, milkmen, or postmen get a tip for a good service at Christmas time.
❼ 聖誕節介紹英文字
Christmas or Christmas Day is a holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus, the central figure of Christianity. It is traditionally celebrated on December 25 by most Western Christian churches. Although dating to probably as early as a.d. 200, the feast of Christmas did not become widespread until the Middle Ages. Aspects of celebration may include gift-giving, Christmas trees, display of Nativity sets, church attendance, the Father Christmas/Santa Claus myth, and family gatherings. The word Christmas is derived from Middle English Christemasse. It is a contraction meaning "Christ's mass". The name of the holiday is often shortened to Xmas because Roman letter "X" resembles the Greek letter X, an abbreviation for Christ.
聖誕節是慶祝天主教中心人物耶穌誕生的節日，通常西方天主教堂在12月25日慶祝。聖誕節最早可追溯到公元200年，但直到中世紀才開始廣泛流傳。聖誕節慶祝活動包括贈送禮物、聖誕樹、擺耶穌系列雕像、參加教堂活動、聖誕老人傳說、家庭聚會等。Christmas一詞來源於中世紀英語Christemasse，大概的意思是耶穌的彌撒。有時候聖誕節被寫成Xmas，因為羅馬字母X和希臘文Chirst的縮寫X很相似。
In many parts of the world, Christmas is the day when people celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem two thousand years ago. People who remember Christmas as a religious holiday celebrate the birth of Jesus and his coming into this world. To them, he is recognized as the Son of God and the Savior of the world. According to the Bible, Jesus was born in a manger because there was no room for him and his parents, Mary and Joseph, in an inn. Today, people often attend church, organize family gatherings, and decorate their homes and businesses. People feel the giving spirit and donate their time and money to worthy causes, or provide volunteer service to the needy. Christmas is also celebrated as a secular holiday when parents and children talk about Santa Claus and Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer
Christmas Day in United States
Many people in the United States celebrate Christmas Day on December 25. The day celebrates Jesus Christ's birth. It is often combined with customs from pre-Christian winter celebrations. Many people erect Christmas trees, decorate their homes, visit family or friends and exchange gifts.
What do people do?
People celebrate Christmas Day in many ways. In the days or even weeks before Christmas Day, many people decorate their homes and gardens with lights, Christmas trees and much more. It is common to organize a special meal, often consisting of turkey and a lot of other festive foods, for family or friends and exchange gifts with them. Children, in particular, often receive a lot of gifts from their parents and other relatives and the mythical figure Santa Claus. This has led to Christmas Day becoming an increasingly commercialized holiday, with a lot of families spending a large part of their income on gifts and food.
Many Sunday schools, churches and communities organize special events. These can include decorating the neighborhood or a shopping mall, putting up a Christmas tree and planning a Nativity display, concert or performance. A lot of plays and songs have a aspect of Christmas as a theme. Some groups arrange meals, shelter or charitable projects for people without a home or with very little money.
Public life
Government offices, organizations, businesses and schools are closed, almost without exception. Many people visit relatives or friends and are out of town. This may cause congestion on highways and at airports. Public transit systems do not run on their regular scheles. In general, public life closes down completely.
Background
The original meaning of Christmas is a special church service, or mass, to celebrate the birth of Christ. The story of the Nativity, or the events surrounding the birth of Jesus, are particularly important in religious celebrations of Christmas. However, many traditions that are around today have their roots in pre-Christian winter festivals. These include the importance of candles and decorations made from evergreen bushes and tree, symbolizing everlasting light and life.
In Roman times, a mid-winter festival was held. This was a relaxing time with a lot of parties and merry making. It was also common to give other people small gifts, such as dolls for children and candles for alts. This festival culminated with the celebration of the winter solstice, which fell on December 25 in the Roman calendar. In Scandinavia, a festival called Yule and lasting up to twelve days was held in late December and early January. In this time people burnt logs and held parties. These customs have influences how Christmas Day is celebrated today in the United States.
The Bible does not give a precise date for the birth of Jesus. It is also unclear when December 25 became associated with the birth of Jesus, although it may have been around two hundred years after his birth. In the early centuries of Christianity, the anniversary of the birth of Jesus was not a cause for celebrations. The idea of turning this day into a celebration started in the early Middle Ages in Europe.
During Reformation and up until the middle of the 1800s, Christmas was often not celebrated because partying and merry making was seen as unchristian. From about 1840, celebrating Christmas became more widespread. December 25 was declared a federal holiday in the United States in 1870. Since then Christmas Day has become a steadily more important holiday.
Symbols
A wide range of people and objects represent Christmas. These include baby Jesus, the Nativity and the Three Kings, but also Santa Claus, reindeer and elves. Common objects at this time of year are pine trees, holly, decorations, fairy lights, candles and presents. Christmas Day is now truly a mix of religious celebration and commercial interests.

❿ 聖誕節英語介紹
聖誕節英文介紹：
Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christ Mass", which originated from the Lunar New Year celebration in ancient Rome and has nothing to do with Christianity. After the popularity of Christianity in the Roman Empire, the Holy See drifted this folk festival into the Christian system to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
But it is not Jesus'birthday on Christmas Day, because the Bible does not record when Jesus was born, nor does it mention such a festival, which is the result of Christianity's absorption of ancient Roman mythology.
聖誕節中文介紹：
聖誕節又稱耶誕節，譯名為「基督彌撒」，它源自古羅馬人迎接新年的農神節，與基督教本無關系。在基督教盛行羅馬帝國後，教廷隨波逐流地將這種民俗節日納入基督教體系，同時以慶祝耶穌的降生。
但在聖誕節這天不是耶穌的生辰，因為《聖經》未有記載耶穌具體生於哪天，同樣沒提到過有此種節日，是基督教吸收了古羅馬神話的結果。

聖誕節常見食品：
一、樹干蛋糕
樹干似的蛋糕（Buchedenoel）是著名的法國聖誕美食。
還未發明電力以前，法國人以一棵好柴作為聖誕禮物。法國人天性浪漫，連美食的起緣也浪漫過人：從前有一個買不起聖誕禮物的年青人，在森林撿了一段木頭送給情人，不但贏得芳心，而且從此平步青雲。因此，樹干蛋糕也成為祝願來年好運的象徵。
二、杏仁布丁
當聖誕晚餐開始時，必須先吃一份杏仁布丁，然後才能開始吃別的東西。如果誰能吃到那枚唯一完整的杏仁，誰將是來年運氣最好的一個人，通常大人們會將這枚杏仁放在最小的孩子的碗里讓他們高興。
三、姜餅
德國最著名的聖誕食品是姜餅（Lebkuchen），是一種介乎於蛋糕與餅干之間的小點。傳統的姜餅，以蜂蜜、胡椒粒為材料，又甜又辣，口感刺激。姜餅經過改良，外面灑上一層糖霜，不但口感豐富，外型也相當討好。
四、沙灘宴
當居於北半球的人們在寒風呼嘯中歡度聖誕節時，位於南半球的澳大利亞卻正是仲夏時節。澳大利亞熱情如火的「仲夏聖誕節」既有熱帶風情的慶祝方式，也融合了歐洲傳統聖誕節的經典元素，盡管戶外人們頂著火辣辣的太陽，但商店櫥窗里卻精心布置了冬日雪景：掛滿雪花的聖誕樹和穿紅棉襖的聖誕老人。
