It's a touching Christmas story, but not in the 1 (tradition) way. It’s about a seriously ill 5-year-old boy 2 died in Santa’s arms in Knoxville, Tennessee, in the United States.
Eric Schmitt-Matzen, 60, a part-time Santa, received a call 3 a nurse at a hospital several weeks ago, saying a dying 5-year-old boy wanted to see Santa Claus. Schmitt-Matzen dressed and rushed to the hospital. Walking into the boy’s room, he asked people 4 (leave) if they couldn’t hold back their 5 (tear). He picked up the boy and held him in his arms.
“They say I’m going to die,” the boy told him 6 (sad). “What can I tell them when I get to where I’m going?”
Schmitt-Matzen said. “When you get there, you tell them you’re Santa’s Number One elf (小精灵), and they will let you in.”
The boy asked, “They will?” Then he 7 (sit) up and gave Schmitt-Matzen a big hug and asked one more question: “Santa, can you help me?” Schmitt-Matzen wrapped his arms around the boy. Before Schmitl-Matzen could say anything, the boy died right there. Santa let the boy stay, hugging and 8 (hold) onto him.
Schmitt-Matzen was 9 sad that he wanted to cry.
The story was printed, and people were 10 (move) when they read it.
