By expressing love for his children in such a special way,Tolkien may indeed have been the real Father Christmas. 《圣诞老人的来信》告诉我们，在圣诞节，除了欣赏圣诞老人、北极熊 和其他一些生活在北极的人物的冒险故事之外，我们还可以共同体会真 正的给予精神。托尔金用这样一种特别的方式来表达对儿女的爱，他可 以算得上是真正的圣诞老人。 Developing ideas ·学习心得总结 Time for a Change? 传统该不该变？ A family dinner is an important tradition to celebrate Spring Festival.
