Joe was the first to wake in the gray dawn of Christmas morning. No stocking hung at the fireplace, and for a moment she felt disappointed. Then she remembered her mother's promise, and slipping her hand under her pillow (枕头), she drew out a little crimson-covered (深红色封面) book. She knew it well, for it was that beautiful old story of the best life ever lived, and Joe felt that it was a true guidebook for any pilgrim (虔诚教徒) going the long journey. She woke Meg with a “Merry Christmas” and told her to look what was under her pillow. A green covered book appeared with the same picture inside, and a few words written by their mother, which made their one present very precious in their eyes.
Presently Beth and Amy woke and found their little books also, one dove coloured (灰色), the other blue; and all sat looking at and talking about them, while the east grew rosy with the coming day.

Manuel and Joe were traders with the Pawnee Indians.

In order to prevent such hot arguments they agreed that if a band of Indians arrived at their trading posts for the purpose of exchange and barter(实物交换), neither would attempt to take advantage of the other.

He invited Manuel to drink a glass of champagne to the success of prospective(预期的) trade; but regretted that on account of his bad back he was not able to stoop down and therefore, would have to ask Manuel to fetch the cask from the cellar.
