Canada Day

Since 1982, July 1st has been officially known as Canada Day. Canadians of all ages take part in this festival across the country.

Canada Day is the year's biggest national party. In many towns and cities, the government organizes a lot of events, often outdoors. These include parades (游行) , concerts, festivals, firework displays and ceremonies for new Canadian citizens (公民) .The celebrations often have a patriotic mood. Canada's national flag, a symbol for Canada Day, can be seen everywhere and a lot of people paint their faces red and white, which are Canada's national colors. The celebrations in Ottawa, Canada's capital city, are especially grand and exciting.

In the province of Quebec, many home rentals (租赁) start on July 1st and last for exactly one year, and many people in Quebec spend Canada Day moving from one house to another. So in Quebec, Canada Day is also known as Moving Day.

Many organizations, businesses and stores are closed this day. Only some bookstores, hospitals and gas stations may be open. Post offices are closed, too. As Canada Day falls in the Canadian summer holiday period, all schools are closed as well. In some areas, special services are provided for large events. The concerts, parades and festivals may cause some traffic jams.

Sometimes we make friends with unexpected （料想不到的） people. For example, who has ever thought that a spider would make friends with a pig? But in E. B White's classic novel Charlotte's Web, this is exactly what happens. 

In the story, Wilbur is an unlucky pig. When he was born, he is so small that the farmer wants to end the pig's life. Luckily, the farmer's daughter stops him from killing Wilbur and decides to raise the pig in a barnyard（谷仓的院子）. 

Wilbur grows day by day and makes many friends in the barnyard, the spider, Charlotte is one of them. However, one day a sheep tells Wilbur that he will be served up as dinner. But Charlotte has decided to save her friend from this danger. By making words such as"famous pig" in her web（网）, she makes the farmer believe that Wilbur is some kind of amazing animal, too important to kill. After Wilbur is saved, Charlotte is so tired that she finally dies. 

Actually, the writer makes a spider the hero of the book. Many people are afraid of animals like spiders. But Charlotte does everything in her power to keep Wilbur alive. It shows how a strong friendship can last through the worst possible time.
