礼物gift[英][ɡɪft] [美][ɡɪft] 中英文故事：瓦格纳的圣诞诺言（1） 1870年圣诞夜，理查德•瓦格纳和他的妻子柯西玛说好了不互送礼物——他们实在是太穷了。但瓦格纳还是谋划着一个意外的礼物。 两个多月来，瓦格纳一直在创作一首乐曲，准备圣诞节那天早晨在柯西玛的卧室外弹奏。他的曲子取材于他后来的歌剧《齐格费里德》的主旋律，另外加入一首两年前他写给孩子们的小童谣。在圣诞节前，瓦格纳写完了《齐格费里德田园曲》，就安排指挥家汉斯•里切斯特在一小型管弦乐团里选录演员。里切斯特秘密地排练了几场，先在苏黎世，后来在卢塞恩的一家旅馆。 Christmas Eve, 1870. Richard Wagner and his wife, Cosima, had agreed not to give each other Christmas presents. They were simply too poor. But Wagner was planning a surprise gift. For more than two months he had been crafting a piece of music to be performed outside Cosima’s bedroom door on Christmas morning. He had based it on themes later to be used in his opera Siegfried, plus a little nursery song he had written for their children two years earlier. He completed the Siegfried Idyll three weeks before Christmas and arranged for conductor Hans Richter to recruit the members of the small orchestra. Richter conducted secret rehearsals, first in Zurich then at a hotel in Lucerne. 中英文例句 1.
