.An old man was going home late one night with his horse and cart after a day's hard work. When he was not far from his house, the light on the cart went out. He tried but could not mend it.

He was near his home, and so he went along the road without a light. When a policeman saw this, he stopped the old carter.

"Where's your light?" asked the policeman. "No one may take a cart along a road at night without a light. You know that. You've broken the law.”

"I had a light," said the old man, "but it has just gone out."

"I don't believe that story," said the policeman. He took out a book and got ready to write. "What's your name and where do you live?" he asked.

"Please don't take my name," said the old man. "My house is just there. You can see it from here. I had a light nearly the whole way. I haven't come far without a light."

"You came all the way without a light. What's your name?"

The carter quickly took the policeman's hand and put it down on the top of the light. The light was still hot, and burnt the policeman's hand. He jumped and he was very angry.

"Now, what do you think?" said the carter. "Did I come all the way without a light?"

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.

“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it！”
