圣诞节的来历：

It is said that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary by Maria. God sent messenger Gabriel to Joseph in his dream，asking him not to leave her because he was unmarried.

Instead，he wanted to marry her and name the child Jesus，meaning that he wanted to save the people from sin.

When Maria was about to give birth，the Rome government ordered that all the people in Bethlehem must declare their domicile. Joseph and Maria had to obey.

When they arrived at the time of the day，the sky was fainting，but two people could not find a hotel to cross the lodge. Just then，Jesus was about to be born.

So Maria only gave birth to Jesus on the manger. In order to commemorate the birth of Jesus，the following generations set December 25 as Christmas，and celebrated the birth of Jesus with annual mass.

译文：

据说耶稣是玛丽亚所生的圣母玛利亚。派遣使者加伯列在梦中晓谕约瑟，叫他不要因为马利亚未婚怀孕而不要她因为他未婚。

相反，他想娶她，给孩子起名叫“Jesus”，意思是他想拯救人民免于罪恶。玛丽亚要生下来的时候，罗马政府命令伯利恒所有的人都必须申报他们的住所。

约瑟夫和玛丽亚不得不服从。当他们到达的时候，天空是昏厥，但两个人找不到一个酒店渡过小屋。就在那时，耶稣即将降生。

所以玛丽亚只在马槽上生了耶稣。为了纪念耶稣的诞生，后人将12月25日定为圣诞节，每年举行弥撒庆祝耶稣的诞生。

圣诞树是圣诞节庆祝活动中最著名的传统之一。通常人们会把常绿植物，比如松树，带到圣诞树屋里或户外，用圣诞灯和五颜六色的装饰来装饰它。

把天使或星星放在树顶上。一种常绿树种，用杉木或松树装饰，作为圣诞庆祝活动的一部分。圣诞树起源于德国。

很久以前，异教徒用常绿树枝装饰房子，意思是在寒冷的冬天过后，经过生命的循环。到了十六世纪，德国人开始用常青树装饰他们的家园。到19世纪末，欧洲移民把圣诞树带到美洲殖民地，并把它们传遍全世界。
