圣诞老人

Santa Claus is the personification of Christmas.

圣诞老人是圣诞节的象征。

We get Grandfather up as Father Christmas.

我们把爷爷装扮成圣诞老人。

Bah! There is no Santa Claus.

哼, 那里有什么圣诞老人!

The Swedes do not have Santa Claus. What they have is Christmas Gnome.

瑞典人的圣诞节里没有圣诞老人，但他们却有个圣诞。

I wanted to believe like I believed last year — that Santa was a big fat elf in a red suit.

我想像去深信不疑——圣诞老人是个穿红衣的胖精灵。

Its just a short form letter and appears to have been signed with the autopen of the day, but I hugged that letter with all the glee of a six-year-old boy getting his first train set from Santa Claus.

这只是封短的通函，看上去是用那时的自来水笔签的名，但我兴奋地把信抱在胸前，就像个六岁小孩刚从圣诞老人那里得到了套火车玩具模型。
