I think Christmas (圣诞节) is one of the happiest times of the year. Everyone has a smile on their face. It's such a(n) {#blank#}1{#/blank#}for kids. They can't wait to open their gifts and play with their{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. It's a nice time for their parents too. They can {#blank#}3{#/blank#}with their family and relax. Let's not forget the true meaning of Christmas.  It is not about {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Christmas trees or the snowman. It's all about love for each other and {#blank#}5{#/blank#}around the world.

Peter's uncle {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (live) in a countryside. He has {#blank#}2{#/blank#} excellent farm. Last year Peter went to stay with him for a few {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (week). Sometimes they {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (take) a walk along the road. Sometimes they drove in a car. When they were walking or {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (drive), they met many people. His uncle always waved (挥手). Peter was {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (interest) in it. He said, "Uncle George, you know everyone here. How do you know them all?"

"I don't know all {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (this) people," said his uncle. "Then why did you wave to them?" asked Peter. "Well, Peter," answered his uncle. "When I wave to someone, he knows me and sometimes we can talk {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (happy). {#blank#}9{#/blank#} when I wave to someone and he doesn't know me, he will say to himself, Who is that man? Why did he wave to me? So he thinks about something on the way. That makes {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (he) way shorter."
