摘　　要：1777年圣诞夜,几名美国大陆军士兵等候在波士顿的一家商店外,他们准备带上补给去和大部队会合。第二天就是圣诞节,但士兵们要离开家乡,赴前线参战。玛格丽特透过自家厨房的窗户看到他们对着手上哈气,不停地踩脚,他们一定很冷。玛格丽特同母亲几个月来一直在编织毛袜,就为了哪天碰上有需要的士兵们,现在他们就在眼前。母女二人把当天烤好的姜味饼干统统拿了出来,塞进每一双袜子,送给士兵。晚上,士兵们围坐在火旁,拿出玛格丽特和她母亲准备的礼物,发出阵阵欢呼。圣诞夜因为爱的传递而暖意融融。Christmas Eve,1777.Six soldiers'waited outside a shop in Boston?.They would soon leave with their supplies to meet up with other members of the Continental army.Margaret peeked+out her kitchen window.She watched the soldiers blow into their hands and stomp'their feet.It was already cold,but Margaret knew it would get colder as night cameon.
