Walking down any of Shanghai’s main shopping streets this week, newcomers might think the locals have been celebrating Christmas for centuries. Christmas may not be a customary holiday in China, but businessmen in Shanghai know it will bring something more valuable than tradition: people are willing to spend money. Most Chinese may feel little connection with the Christmas celebration, but with most shops offering discount (折扣), the message couldn’t be clearer-- it is the season to part with one’s hard-earned cash.
Much of that marketing drive is directed towards thousands of foreigners and foreign companies that call Shanghai home. But for Shanghai’s 13 million locals, regardless of personal interest, there seems no avoiding the season’s commercial greetings. Along some major roads, nearly every shop window displays some symbols to the holiday: a man-made fir tree(杉树) with lights, or a snowman.
With an increasing number of westerners arriving in the city for work, young Shanghainese, eager to keep pace with the latest western fashions, have begun to show their interest in Christmas. But some people still don’t think Christmas is an important festival in China. At least it is less important than the New Year and China’s Spring Festival.

B.Most Chinese people think they have something to do with Christmas. |

3.Why do some young Shanghainese show great interest in Christmas?
A.They think themselves connected with Christmas celebrations. |

Once again, I was in a new school. So was a girl in my class named Paris. That’s where the 31 ended.
I was tall and she was small. I was one of the oldest in the class while she was the youngest. I was 32 and shy. She wasn’t. I couldn’t 33 her, considering her my enemy. But she wanted to be friends.

She lived on the fourth floor in a two-room place with her mother, her stepfather, her two brothers and her sister. When we got to the room she 36 with her sister, she took out a big case of Barbies(芭比娃娃)- which was my next 37 . I would have thought she’d outgrown them. I has never played with them.
