Charles Dickens
查尔斯 狄更斯
（1812年2月7日-1870年6月9日），维多利亚时代英国最伟大的作家，19世纪英国批判现实主义文学巨匠，也是欧洲最卓越的小说家之一。他在自己的作品中，以高超的艺术手法，描绘了包罗万象的社会图景，作品一贯表现出揭露和批判的锋芒，贯彻惩恶扬善的人道主义精神，塑造出众多令人难忘的人物形象。一百多年来他的代表作《双城记》、《雾都孤儿》等对英国文学起到了深远的影响，在全世界盛行不衰，是世界文学宝库中的瑰宝。
知识补充
《圣诞欢歌》(A Christmas Carol)是狄更斯的三部圣诞小说之一，创作于1843年。其他两部为《钟声》(The Chimes)和《炉边的蟋蟀》(The Cricket on the Hearth)。它们奠定了现代圣诞节的寓意和内涵，也告诫人们要拥有一颗善良、仁慈、怜悯、容忍之心。故事中的一些情节成了圣诞节的约定风俗，诸如家庭团聚、互换礼物、圣诞聚餐等，甚至“圣诞快乐”的说法也是由此得以流行。
Many would agree that when we think of Christmas, we probably think of gifts, Christmas trees and Santa Claus. But behind all these things lies the true meaning of Christmas: the importance of sharing and giving love and joy to people around us. The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this.

As we all know, the Spring Festival is one of the most important festivals in China. It is usually called the Chinese New Year. To celebrate it, people always do quite a few preparations for it.
A few days before the festival, people usually have a cleaning in order to get rid of the bad luck. On the eve of it, the whole family sit together, having a wonderful dinner and enjoying the TV programs until midnight. And children are especially happy because they are able to get lucky money that is in red paper from their elders. On the first day of the New Year, all the people, old and young, wear new clothes to visit their relatives and friends. They wish each other good luck in the coming year.
Everyone has a good time and feels happy during the festival.
