MEMORIES① 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 mess② when she arrived．That was also the day Granny moved in③．Somehow④，at the time，I didn't know she was sick [2].Maybe I was too young，maybe she hid it too well，or maybe I was just too excited that Christmas was on the way⑤.
[1]Granny spent with us为定语从句，先行词是the last Christmas，关系代词that充当spent的宾语，此处已被省略。
[2]she was sick是宾语从句，引导词that已被省略。
After Granny moved in，she spent most of her time on the brown sofa by the fire⑥.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 effort⑦ to help me．Her hand was slightly⑧ shaky⑨，but she wrote“Father Christmas，the North Pole” on the envelope⑩.
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 ，stuffed the turkey and then I sat on my granny's lap and we sang Christmas songs．My favourite song was Frosty the Snowman and I loved the bit that went“Thumpety-thump-thump，thumpety-thump-thump，look at Frosty go！”Granny had the patience to sing it over and over again．
On Christmas Eve ，Granny took a seat by the fire as we put up the Christmas tree[3].
I hung most of the decorations on the branches .
[3]as引导时间状语从句，意为“当……时”。
“That's the most beautiful tree I've ever seen，”Granny said． [4]
[4]有最高级修饰的名词后的定语从句一般用现在完成时。关系代词that已被省略。
Then she started singing，“Oh，Christmas tree，oh，Christmas tree，you fill my heart with music...”
Before bed，Granny and I left a plate 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 [5].
[5]until引导时间状语从句，意为“直到……为止”。
My stocking was full of small toys and sweets on Christmas morning，and there were presents under the tree．I was on my best behaviour 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 [6].
[6]此处为“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构，副词inside作宾语补足语。
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 .
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 .David put so much pudding in his mouth that he couldn't swallow [7].
[7] so...that... 意为“如此……以至于……”，引导结果状语从句。
“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．Inside I keep Granny's paper hat and the letter she helped me write that Christmas．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 [8].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 G-shape—G for Granny．

圣诞节回忆
我还记得奶奶和我们一起过的最后一个圣诞节。它开始于11月中旬一个寒冷多风的日子。我记得那天的风，因为奶奶到达时她的灰头发乱作一团。也就是从那天开始，奶奶搬来和我们一起住。不知怎么的，当时我并不知道她病了。也许是我年纪太小了，也许是她隐藏得太好了，也许是我对即将到来的圣诞节感到太兴奋了。
奶奶搬来和我们一起住以后，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。当我给圣诞老人写信告诉他我想要的礼物时，奶奶尽力帮助我。她的手有点颤抖，但她在信封上写了“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。我和奶奶做了糖饼干，将火鸡塞满馅，然后我坐在奶奶的大腿上，我们唱圣诞歌。我最喜欢的歌曲是《雪人》，我喜欢“砰砰砰，砰砰砰，快看小雪人！”的节拍。奶奶有耐心地唱了一遍又一遍。
在平安夜，奶奶靠着炉火坐着，我们把圣诞树立起来。我把大部分装饰品挂在树枝上。
“这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，你让我的心里充满了音乐……”
睡觉前，奶奶和我留了一盘糖饼干给圣诞老人，并在我的床尾放了一只长筒袜。我记得奶奶坐在我的床上轻声唱歌，直到我睡着。
圣诞节早上，我的长筒袜里装满了小玩具和糖果，圣诞树下还有礼物。当我们拆礼物时，我表现得很好。后来，奶奶叫我过去。
“我有特别的东西要送给你，”奶奶低声说。“它是用来保存你所有的宝物的。圣诞快乐。”
那是一个音乐盒，里面有一个芭蕾舞演员。
早饭后，凯丝阿姨和我的表弟大卫来了。当妈妈、爸爸和凯丝阿姨准备午餐时，大卫和我在外面玩耍。我们在花园里跑来跑去，滚了一个大雪球，堆了一个可爱的雪人。奶奶待在炉火边。我记得透过窗户看到她在看我。
“快出来，奶奶，”我喊道，但她只是挥了挥手。
午餐吃得很晚，但这是一件热闹而令人兴奋的大事。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。
“布丁好吃吗？”奶奶问道。
“嗯，嗯，嗯，”大卫说。
凯丝阿姨觉得这没什么好笑的，但我们都觉得好笑。奶奶开怀大笑，她的纸帽子掉了下来。
那个圣诞节过后几周，奶奶去世了。但我经常想起她，尤其是在圣诞节。每年我都会拿出她给我的音乐盒。我把奶奶的纸帽子和那年圣诞节她帮我写的信放在里面。几年前，当我不再相信圣诞老人的时候，妈妈把信还给了我。当我想到是什么让圣诞节如此神奇时，我想到的不只是礼物和圣诞老人。还有我对奶奶的记忆。现在我成了那个每年做糖饼干的人，我总是做一个G形状的饼干——G代表着奶奶。
