Thanksgiving Day

    Nov．23 was Thanksgiving Day in 2006．Let’s step back and give thanks for all the blessing we have.

The origin(起源)

    Thanksgiving is one of the most important holidays in America and is closely tied to American  history．The origins of Thanksgiving can be traced back to 1620 when over 100 English Puritans(清教徒)sailed across the Atlantic Ocean and settled in the new world for religious(宗教上)freedom．But after they arrived，they found themselves in trouble．They have to deal with the new climate and almost half died from disease or hunger. Luckily，the local Iroquois(易落魁族人)tribe helped them out and taught them how to grow local plants．Finally they got a good harvest(收獲) and the colonists decided to celebrate with the local people as an expression of thanks．In 1863 President Lincoln declared the fourth Thursday of every November to be Thanksgiving Day and it be came a traditional holiday．

What to eat

    Thanksgiving Day dinner is a big deal．many people spend all day in the kitchen preparing things such as plum(李子)pudding，mincemeat pie(甜餡餅)，strawberry sauce，pumpkin pie and of course，roast turkey．Roast turkey is usually the centerpiece(中心裝飾品，餐桌中央擺設)of the table，and has come to be a symbol that represents Thanksgiving．
