One of the traditions which is now a necessary part of Christmas is that of Father Christmas, or Santa Claus. According to the modern legend, he is a magical figure who visits all the children of the world during the night before Christmas Day, leaving presents which they find the next morning. He flies through the night sky in a sledge pulled by reindeer, and enters houses by climbing down chimneys. This strange legend is based on the life of a man called Nicholas, but in fact we know very little about him. Historians think he was a Christian bishop(主教) in Turkey in about 285－350 A. D. One of the stories about him is that he helped three poor girls. No one would marry them because they were so poor. To provide them with money for their weddings, Nicholas secretly dropped some gold coins down the chimney of their house. After Nicholas died, he was made a saint(圣人) by the church. (The name Santa Claus thus comes from St Nicholas.) His feast day was celebrated in December, and parents started giving their children secret presents from St Nicholas. Over the years, this custom became part of our Christmas traditions.

Recently, a psychologist has claimed that Father Christmas is “the perfect fantasy” for children. According to Professor Anthony Clare, children love the character of Father Christmas because he is like an ideal father: he loves children and gives them presents, but he never criticizes them, is never angry, and children do not even need to thank him for the presents. Other writers, however, point out that Father Christmas can be a frightening character to some children. Jane Bidder says that some children are terrified of this fat, bearded old man. It can certainly confuse many children. As parents, we warn our children to be careful of strangers and never to let them into the house, and yet we tell children that a strange man will come into their bedroom at night! Some children can become very worried about this idea and fear that he is a kind of burglar.

    Most children, however, understand from their parents and from the media that Father Christmas is basically a benign character, and look forward to his annual visit with joy and excitement.

Cars are too expensive for many people around the world to own. Not only that, many cities are already full of traffic, and many country areas have rough roads.

        So   46          do people travel those distances that are too far to walk? They use public transportation. If you ride the subway or bus   47            you live, you can appreciate some of the benefits of public transportation. With many people   48            (share) one bus or train, there is less traffic and, more   49               （importance）, less pollution.

       Which of the types of mass transit   50           (describe) below are you familiar with? If a regular bus can hold       dozens of people, imagine what a bus        51             (two) the size can hold! In Great Britain, there are many buses that are known as double-deckers (cars with two floors).

        Buses in Haiti are often very crowded. It’s not   52            (common)         for passengers to actually sit on the rooftops. Buses are sometimes called “tap-taps”, because the   53             (ride) on the roof tap（敲擊）when they want to be dropped off.

        Many large cities around the world take advantage of the space beneath the streets and run underground trains. People in Paris, Mexico City and Tokyo may use the subway system to get to school, to work, or to visit friends in other             54          (neighbor). Both the Japanese and French have developed        High-speed trains to link various cities. While electric trains in North America average 130 kph, the French TGV ( high-speed-train ) is the world’s fastest,         55               (average) over 270 kph!
