A
In the United States, every year, Thanksgiving Day is on the fourth Thursday of November. Because Canada (加拿大) is on the north (北方) of the United States, and is colder, the harvest comes earlier in the year. In Canada, people have Thanksgiving Day on the second Monday of October.
The harvest brings a lot of food to the people. On Thanksgiving Day, people in Canada and America like to have a big meal with their friends and family just like Chinese people do at Mid-Autumn Festival. Many Canadians (加拿大人) and Americans put flowers, vegetables and fruits around their homes to say "Thank you" for the harvest. At a Thanksgiving Day dinner, many Canadians and Americans will eat turkey (火鸡), potatoes and pumpkin pie. These are food like the food of many years ago. They are saying "Thank you" for the harvest that comes every year.
