As Christmas is coming, there are presents to be bought, cards to be
sent, rooms to be cleaned. Parents are 
with difficult jobs of hiding presents from
curious young children. If the gifts are large, this is sometimes a real 
.
On Christmas Eve, young children find the 
almost unbearable（难以忍受的）. They are 
between
the wish to go to bed early so that Father Christmas will bring their presents
quickly and the wish to 
up
late so that they will not 
the
fun. The wish for gifts usually proves stronger. But though children go to bed
early, they often lie 
for
a long time, hoping to get a short look at Father Christmas.
Last Christmas, my wife and I 
managed
to hide a few large presents in the storeroom. I feared the moment when my son,
Jimmy, would 
me
where that new bike had come from, but 
he did not see it.
On Christmas Eve, it took the
children hours to go to sleep. It must have been nearly 
when
my wife and I went quietly into their room and began 
stockings. Then I pushed in the 
I
bought for Jimmy and left it beside the Christmas tree. We knew we would not
get 
sleep
that night, for the children were 
to get up early. At about five o'clock the
next morning, we were woken by loud sounds coming from the children's room － they were shouting excitedly! 
I
had time to get out of bed, young Jimmy came 
into the room on his new bike, and his
sister, Mary, 
close
behind pushing her new baby carriage. Even the baby arrived, he moved 
the
hands and knees into the room dragging a large balloon behind him. Suddenly it
burst. That woke 
up
completely. The day had really begun with a bang（巨响）.
