If the gifts are large, this is sometimes a real  37   . On Christmas Eve, young children find the excitement almost unbearable. They are torn between the wish to go to bed early so that Father Christmas will bring their presents quickly and the wish to  38   up late so that they will not  39   the fun. The wish for gifts usually proves stronger. But though children go to bed early, they often lie  40   for a long time, hoping to get a short  41   at Father Christmas.

He moved  54   the hands and knees into the room dragging a large balloon behind him. Suddenly it burst. That woke us up  55   . The day had really begun with a bang (巨响)!
