6、atience to sing it over and over again.我还记得奶奶和我们一起度过的最后一个圣诞节。它开始于11月中旬的一个寒冷、多风的日子。我记得刮风了,因为奶奶来的时候,灰白的头发乱糟糟的。那天也是奶奶搬进来的日子。不知何故,当时我并不知道她病了。也许是我太年轻,也许是她隐藏得太好,也许是我太兴奋圣诞节就要到了。奶奶搬进来后,大部分时间都是在火炉边的棕色沙发上度过的。有时她很安静,但她似乎很快乐。当我写信给圣诞老人告诉他我想要的礼物时,奶奶尽力帮助我。她的手有点颤抖,但她在信封上写着“圣诞老人,北极”。课文译文课文译文在十二月,我们每天变得越来越兴奋街上出现了灯光,圣
