你想知道中西方的节日有何不同吗？快来看看这两封电子邮件吧！

　　Hello, Jenny!

　　Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival．We will watch the moon tonight, and look for Change and Wu Gang．We usually eat mooncakes．They are round, like the moon．

　　National Day is also in autumn, on October 1st．My mother and father are usually free for seven days! We will do many things together．I like going to the National Day celebration．

　　But the best thing in autumn is my birthday．It's in October．I will be fifteen years old．Goodbye．

　　Yours,

　　Li Ming

Dear Li Ming,

　　Thank you for your e-mail! I love autumn too．In Canada, we have an autumn holiday called Thanksgiving Day．Family members always celebrate it together．I will go to my grandmother and grandfather's house．My uncles, aunts and their children will be there too．

　　Canadian Thanksgiving Day is in early October．In the USA, they celebrate Thanksgiving Day in late November．

　　Have a good time on your birthday, Li Ming! On my birthday, I have a cake with candles．Everyone sings the song “Happy birthday”．Then I blow out the candles! Will you have a cake for your birthday?

　　Your friend,

　　Jenny

Communication

　　You speak, write a letter, make a telephone call．Your words carry a message．People communicate(交流)with words．Do you think you can communicate without words?A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly．Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad．

　　When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions．You shake your head, and people know you are saying“No”．You nod and people know you are saying “Yes”．Other things can also carry messages．For example, a sign(招牌，标志)at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take．A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library．Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out．Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time?People can communicate in many other ways．An artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things．Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas．Books, magazines, TV and radios and films all help us to communicate with each other．They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about．
