圣誕節(jié)手抄報：圣誕老人

　　Who was he?

　　圣誕老人是誰?

　　Father Christmas is based on a real person, St. Nicholas, which explains his other name 'Santa Claus' which comes from the Dutch 'Sinterklaas'. Nicholas was a Christian leader from Myra (in modern-day Turkey) in the 4th century AD. He was very shy, and wanted to give money to poor people without them knowing about it. It is said that one day, he climbed the roof of a house and dropped a purse of money down the chimney. It landed in the stocking which a girl had put to dry by the fire! This may explain the belief that Father Christmas comes down the chimney and places gifts in children's stockings.

　　圣誕老人源于土耳其歷史上的一個真實人物，他的名字叫圣尼古拉斯，他的另一個名字'Santa Claus' 源于荷蘭語'Sinterklaas'。尼古拉斯是一個從米拉(現(xiàn)在的土耳其)來的基督教領(lǐng)袖。尼古拉斯很害羞，想給窮人贈送物資又怕被窮人知道。傳說，有一天，他從房頂?shù)臒焽枥锶忧敖o某戶人家，結(jié)果剛好扔進(jìn)了那位姑娘的襪子里，那個姑娘原本是把襪子掛在爐邊想烤干的。這或許就是大家相信圣誕老人從煙囪里把禮物放進(jìn)孩子的襪子里的緣由吧。
