In the United States, every year, Thanks-giving Day is on the fourth Thursday in November. Because Canada is on the north of the United States, and is colder, the harvest comes earlier(更早) in the year. In Canada, people have Thanksgiving Day on the second Monday in 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 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, 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.

These days, anyone who uses the Internet on their phone understands the power of different kinds of pictures. They are emojis (表情符号) which have swept the world since the late 1990s. One could say that, in the Internet age, emojis are the world's most widely understood language.

However, on Chinese social media, just understanding how to use emojis is not enough. Now young Chinese enjoy an even more complex (复杂的) form of emoji called biaoqingbao, or sticker sets. Much like emojis, sticker sets are groups of pictures used to express feelings.

Sticker sets are popular among the young people, especially those born in the 1990s. During a recent conversation with a friend of mine—a 90s kid—on WeChat. I wrote that l disagreed with something he had said. In response, he sent back a group of stickers. The first was a screenshot (截图) taken from the Chinese political drama In the Name of the People, in which an actor, Xu Yajun, purses his lips in a look of doubt. Next came a popular Internet picture of a girl pulling a face of exaggerated (夸张的) anger. Then quickly by an image of an orange cat that has funny drawn-on frown. At last, my phone lit up with the baby face of Huang Zitao. None of these stickers expressed teal anger. Instead, they meant: "Why don't you agree with me?"

Using sticker sets skillfully can express the speaker's mind correctly without misunderstanding.

The sticker sets can also end the conversation when its user is ready to go to bed. Between close friends or couples, only saying "Goodnight" might seem common. Instead, imagine a man with a sweet heart beside, his face red with words: "I'm going to bed." Not only is this sticker able to end the conversation, but it also refers to a closer relationship between speakers.

Sticker sets are the new language of China's youth. They now need more ways to express themselves. We must allow them to speak more freely and independently. For the moment, at least, sticker sets are playing this important role.

Great Ways to Reuse Your Last Ever Catalog (产品目录)

After an amazing 70 years of printing, this year's catalog for our company will be the last. But that's not to say it's yesterday's news. Here are some of our favorite ways to use it around the home (and out of it):

The perfect size and weight, why not use your old catalog as a smart and modern door stop?	Christmas can be covered with the catalog. It's suitable for packing presents with the bright colors. Or why not cut it into pieces to fill in present boxes which you're going to post?
Get the catalog and give your kids small tasks to make paper planes or some Christmas decorations (装饰品) with a difference.	Just simply stick some on your books as cover paper. The paper is thicker and smoother to save your readings.
Sit in a more comfortable position and work at high speed by using the catalog as the perfect desk for your computer.	None of those? Then please remember to put the catalog into a right place, to give it a second life through recycling.

If you wish to get your hands on the very new catalog, you can still do so in stores or on our website.
