China has Mid-Autumn Festival. Canada and the USA have Thanksgiving Day. Many countries in the world have harvest festivals. This is the best time for the harvest—bringing all the crops in from the field. In the United States, every year, Thanksgiving Day is on the fourth Thursday of November. Because Canada is to the north(北面) of the USA, and is colder, the harvest comes earlier in the year. In Canada, people have Thanksgiving Day six weeks earlier than in the USA. The harvest brings a lot of food to the people. On Thanksgiving Day, people in America and Canada like to have a big family meal with their friends—just like Chinese people do at Mid-Autumn Festival. Many Canadians and Americans put flowers, vegetables, and fruit in their homes to say ‘Thank you’ for the harvest. At a Thanksgiving Day dinner, many Canadians and Americans will eat turkey and pumpkin pies. These are foods like the foods of many years ago. They are saying “Thank you” for the harvest that comes every year.

It was Christmas Eve. When everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn’t fall asleep. He still couldn’t think of what he wanted as a special Christmas present. He wondered how Santa — Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didn’t know himself.

As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof and a sound downstairs. It was Santa Claus, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and ran down the hall to the stairs. He hoped to take a look at the old man before Santa left for his next stop.

By the time Bunny was at the bottom of the stairs, everything was silent again. Lots of presents were put under the Christmas tree, but Santa was gone. A little disappointed(失望的), 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 presents to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. It also had antlers(鹿角) on its head. Bunny almost mistook it for a dog.

“Are you a reindeer(驯鹿)?” asked Bunny.

“Yes,” replied the brown animal with antlers. “My name is Ralph.”

“And you were pulling Santa’s sled(雪橇)?”

“I was until I got air-sick,” replied Ralph. “Santa had to leave me here and go on with the other seven reindeer.”

“Isn’t it a bit unusual for a reindeer to get air-sick? I mean, isn’t flying what reindeer are famous for?”

“Not me, I’m afraid. It makes me frightened. I always feel sick when it comes to flying,” replied Ralph. “But everyone wanted me to pull Santa’s sled, so when it was my turn I gave it a try. I’m afraid I just wasn’t cut out for the job. Now I’m trapped here and I don’t know how to get back to the North Pole.”

“Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,” said Bunny. As he made the offer, Bunny suddenly realized the special present he wanted from Santa was a new friend!

Teenagers have all kinds of dreams.Some are more realistic than others.For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides.And some said they dream of going to the moon one day.

According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams.Quite a few dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers.Some said they’d like to go on exciting trips; one student said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean.And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they’d like to be able to fly!
