There are at least two methods．Induction （归纳法） （as described by Darwin ），or deduction （演绎法）（ as described by Einstein）．Both methods can produce amazing result．But only when you know which"direction"to go．
The steps are the same．They include：
Theory （理论）＝Explaining how things work
Experiment＝A way to test what's happening
Observation＝Something you notice
Together，these are called the scientific method．
Should you start from the"bottom"by collecting information and facts to prove and seeing where chat leads you？That's induction．Charles Darwin （1809﹣1882 ） supported this method．He spent years observing the appearance and behavior of animals in different places．From this，he created his theory of natural selection：animal and plants can change because of their environment．
Or should you start from the"top"by creating a theory and then seeing how it stands up to real life？That's deduction．Albert Einstein（1879﹣1955）was king here．He began with brave ideas．These theories often took years to prove by experiment．
A few of Einstein's ideas are still being examined．
In history，scientist have been solving problems using different methods．For example，while studying bacteria（细菌）．Fleming found that something on bread could kill bacteria harmful to human health．This led him to discover a new medicine．Newton suggested that all objects attract each other．His idea was proved later．
So which way better？That depends．Some researchers do experiment，and only later consider where their results may lead them．That's induction．But deduction needs you to suggest a theory that may or may not be supported by the information and facts．The best scientists are always ready to change methods when necessary．

"May we all be blessed with longevity．Though miles apart，we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together（但愿人长久，千里共婵娟）．"wrote Su Shi，a poet during the Song Dynasty，in his well﹣known poem to his younger brothers Su Zhe．
The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar（阴历）．On this day，people celebrate Mid﹣Autumn Festival．It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country．
In ancient China，that day was a harvest（收获）festival because crops（庄稼）were harvested during that period．It was a time for relaxation and celebration．
Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries，families also try to get together for the Mid﹣Autumn Festival in China．Usually，no matter how far away or how busy they are，people will try to return home for the celebration．
The Mid﹣Autumn has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays．People eat moon cakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs．The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon．The full moon and moon cakes stand for family reunion（团聚）．
With the beautiful moon up in the sky，people sit together，enjoy the full moon，eat moon cakes and fruit，share the stories，and express the best wishes for the family members and friends who live afar．
