1.Find one you like.找一个你喜欢的。
这是一个祈使句。find的宾语是“one you like”，“you like”修饰“one”。这里的one指代前面提到的“a round pumpkin”。
2.Put the pumpkin where everyone can see.把南瓜放在每个人都能看到的地方。
这是一个含有状语从句的复合句。“where everyone can see”是地点状语从句，意思是“每个人可以看到的地方”。

万圣节
万圣节的庆祝活动来源于11月1日的All Hallows Day（也叫All Saints Day）。当天孩子们会把南瓜雕刻成脸型，中间挖空，再插上蜡烛做成南瓜灯。为了庆祝万圣节，孩子们会提着这种灯笼到处玩耍。
