Chapter 11 If you are a sheep, I will be a horse. If you are a horse, I will be a sheep.

Dear Xiaowen: Grandma said that it would be great to take you to New York to see your mother on Thanksgiving!Thanksgiving Day (Thanksgiving Day) is actually a Thanksgiving Day. Who are you thanking?Religious people say thank God. We think Thee, Lord, for giving us Thy gift of bread and meat. (Thank God for giving us food.) we think Thee, too—a little more——That we are here to eat. (And thanks for letting us eat here (alive)!) People who believe in religion think that they can be grateful to God, and they will not be ungrateful to others.President Lincoln, under the influence of the female editor Mrs. SJHale, stipulated that the last Thursday of November every year should be Thanksgiving Day. In 1939, President Roosevelt, who was referred to by Roosevelt Road in Taipei, wanted to promote economic prosperity. , extend the time to buy things before Christmas, so, move Thanksgiving to the fourth Thursday in November.

Mrs.SJHale once wrote a famous nursery rhyme called "May Had a Little Lamb", you can ask your teacher, she probably can sing it.The great American inventor Thomas A. Edison, who invented the record player, sang this song when he filled his first record (Edison invented 1100 things such as the electric light). Lamb is a lamb, a lamb, a gentle and naive person is also called a lamb, and an inexperienced and gullible person is also called a lamb.A sheep is a sheep, a sheep, One may as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb. It means that if a person steals a sheep, he will also be hanged, and if he steals a lamb, he will also be hanged, then it is better to steal a sheep (a big one) ), which means "one does not do, two does not stop" in Chinese. A wolf in sheeps clothing is a wolf in sheepskin, a bad guy pretending to be a good person, a hypocrite, a guy with a honeyed belly and a sword. It is a curse word, but "He is a sheep in sheeps clothing." It is not a curse word (this sentence is the former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill W .Churchill made fun of his political opponent Attlee CRAttlee).There is another kind of sheep called goat, and the male has a beard. Separate the sheep from the goats is to separate good people from bad.The Chinese word for "black sheep" in English happens to be "black sheep", but the Chinese word for "to mend after a dead sheep" in English happens to be "Lock the stable door after the horse has been stolen." .

If you are a horse, I will be a sheep, and if you are a sheep, I will be a horse. Xiaowen, tell me, is English deliberately messing with Chinese? dad November 18, 1973
