Thanksgiving Day(感恩节) is very important in America. It is on the fourth Thursday of November. On the eve(前夕) of  Thanksgiving, the members of the family usually go back home. They sit around the table and have a big dinner the next day.

    Robert works for a computer company. Two days before Thanksgiving Day, he has to fly to China to have a meeting. And the meeting lasts(持续) for four days. So he can't get back home to stay with his family. He has a bad Thanksgiving Eve because he feels lonely ! But the next morning, someone knocks at the door. He opens the door and finds his wife and daughter standing outside. He is so surprised. His wife brings his favorite food—pumpkin pie and pudding. In the evening, the meeting organizer holds a big party for the foreign friends.
