Thanksgiving Day is a special holiday in the United States and Canada. It’s on the fourth Thursday in November. Families and friends get together to eat and give thanks for the good things in life. Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is celebrated in late fall.
On Thanksgiving Day, about 88 percent of Americans eat turkey. But one lucky turkey not only will not be eaten but also will become famous. Every year, turkey farmers present(赠送) turkeys to the US president. But instead of eating this turkey, the president gives it a “Pardon”(赦免). The turkey is flown to Florida for a thanksgiving Parade (游行). Then it lives on the farm for the rest of its life.
Turkeys come from America and have been part of American culture for centuries. Benjamin Franklin even wanted the turkey to be America’s national bird.
Turkeys living on farms are large birds that cannot fly. But wild turkeys are quite fast. They can fly at a speed up to 88 kilometers per hour. They can also run at 40 kilometers per hour.
Turkeys don’t have ears. They hear by using the growth of beaks(尖喙). But their hearing is about five times better than human hearing.

Chou grew up just with his mother. He did not talk much and did badly in many school subjects. His mother noticed the boy’s special interest in music and sent him to learn piano when he was only three years old. He loved it and kept on practicing.
　　Chou is not very handsome. He does not speak clearly when he sings or talks. But the singer has huge crowds of fans. “He is really good at music. It makes him attractive(有魅力的) to me.” said Liu Jiajun,  a Junior 2 student in No. 101 Middle School in Beijing.
