He wondered how Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didnt know himself.As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof and a sound downstairs. It was Father Christmas, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and raced down the hall to the stairs hoping to have a look at the old man with his own eyes.By the time Bunny reached the bottom of the stairs, though, everything was again silent. Beautiful gifts were piled (堆积) under the Christmas tree, but Father Christmas was gone. He looked for him for a few minutes, but it was already too late. Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.“Hello，” said Bunny.“Is somebody there？”He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of gifts to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. Bunny might have mistaken it for a dog, if it hadnt been for the antlers (鹿角) on its head.“Are you a reindeer (驯鹿)？” asked Bunny.“Yes，” replied the animal, “my name is Ralph.”“And you were pulling Father Christmas sled (雪橇)？”“I was until I got airsick，” replied Ralph, “Im afraid I wasnt cut_out_for the job.
