圣诞老人

We get Grandfather up as Father Christmas.

我们把爷爷装扮成圣诞老。

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

瑞典圣诞节里没有圣诞老，但他们却有一圣诞守护神。

Santa Claus is the personification of Christmas.

圣诞老圣诞节。

Bah! There is no Santa Claus.

哼, 那里有什么圣诞老!

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

我想像去年一样深信不疑——圣诞老穿红衣胖精灵。

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.

这只一封短通函，看上去用那时自来水笔签名，但我兴奋地把信抱在胸前，就像一六岁小孩刚从圣诞老那里得到了一套火车玩具模型。
