阅读理解 It was just pumpkins we were looking for that October Saturday. We were searching for pumpkins that we could carve into fantastic jack-o’-lanterns. We wanted to laugh at their silly faces. We wanted lots of them to decorate our front porch. My brother Tim and I went to the store where we usually get pumpkins every year. They said they only had some baby ones that were too small to carve. Now what would we do? We went home, wondering if Mom or Dad would have any ideas. Dad said he would take us for a ride to see if a roadside vegetable stand had some pumpkins. “I can’t believe they won’t.”
