Pumpkin(南瓜）carving at Halloween is a family tradition.

We visit a local farm every October. In the pumpkin field, I

compete with my three brothers and sister to ek out the

biggest pumpkin. My dad has a rule that we have to carry our

pumpkins back home, and as the eldest child I have an

advantage --I carried an 85-pounder back last year.

This year, it was hard to tell whether my prize or the one

chon by my 14-year-old brother, Jason, was the winner.

Unfortunately we forgot to weigh them before taking out their

insides, but I was determined to prove my point. All of us were

hard at work at the kitchen table, with my mom filming the

annual event. I'm unsure now why I thought forcing my head

inside the pumpkin would ttle the matter, but it emed to

make perfect n at the time.

With the pumpkin resting on the table, hole uppermost, I

bent over and presd my head against the opening. At first I

got jammed just above my eyes and then, as I went on with

my task, unwilling to quit, my no briefly prevented entry.

Finally I managed to put my whole head into it, like a cork (軟

木塞） forced into a bottle. I was able to straighten up with the

huge pumpkin resting on my shoulders.

My excitement was short-lived. The pumpkin was heavy.

“I'm going to t it down, now," I said, and with Jason helping

to support its weight, I bent back over the table to give it

somewhere to rest. It was only when I tried to remove my head

that I realized getting out was going to be less straight

forward than getting in. When I pulled hard, my no got in

the way. I got into a panic as I presd firmly against the table

and moved my head around trying to find the right angle, but

it was no u. “I can't get it out!” I shouted, my voice

sounding unnaturally loud in the enclod space.
