History tells us that the origin of Santa Claus begins in the 4th century with Saint Nicholas, Bishop of Myra . One of the legends tells about that he acquired a fortune when his parents died while he was still in his teens. By nature St.Nicholas was a generous and honest man, particularly devoted to children. He also cared deeply for the poor. He brought various gifts, money and other useful items to the houses of the poor. He did this at night, and in secrecy, so that no one knew, as he wanted no glory, he just wanted to help people. He became widely known for his generosity.
据史料记载,圣诞老人的原型是公元4世纪的圣尼古拉斯,他是米拉的主教。有一种传说认为在他十多岁的时候父母双亡,给他留下一大笔财产。圣尼古拉生来就是个慷慨正直的人,尤其喜爱孩子,还很关心穷苦人,给穷人家里送去各种礼物、钱以及其他有用的物品。他一般都是在夜里秘密地做这些事,这样就没人知道,因为他并不想获得什么赞颂,只是想帮助别人。很快,他就因自己的慷慨而广为人知。
There is one famous legend about Saint Nicholas. The story tells of Nicholas hearing one day of three beautiful sisters who lived in a miserable hut on the edge of Myra. The three sisters were very poor. They could barely earn enough to keep themselves and their old mother from starving to death. When Nicholas heard of their plight, he was very concerned. He decided to do something to help them.
