thanksgiving day is an
american holiday and not celebrated in
continental europe. on the fourth
thursday of each november,
families and
friends gather together for the occasion to
celebrate with a traditional turkey
dinner, usually in the mid-
afternoon.
thanksgiving originated as a celebration of the
years harvest and is similar to the
mid-autumn festival in china.
the origin of the thanksgiving
day
this american
tradition started in 1621 before the united
states of america was established. it
was a huge celebration
for a hard-
earned harvest the first year after arriving in
the new
world.
on september 6, 1620, the mayflower ship set sail
from
plymouth, devon, england, taking
all the english pilgrims
(清
教徒)
to the new
world. the english pilgrims numbered about a
hundred people, and left england to
escape religious
persecution. their
voyage to the new world was financed by
merchant adventurers, an english
investor group.
the
pilgrims sailed sixty-six days, arrived in the new
world in
november of the same year.
they first settled in a cornfield
abandoned by native indians and named
it plymouth plantation.
they worked on the land with much difficulty and
were beset
by a devastating plague in
which half of the pilgrim died in the
long winter of 1620. in the spring of
1621, an indian brave
named squanto and
her wampanoag
(瓦帕浓人,北美印第安人
阿尔
琴族一部落)
tribe came to their help. the
tribe taught the
pilgrims how to work
the earth and plant corn, beans,
pumpkins, squash and other
crops.
the thanksgiving
feast in 1621
in late
september 1621, the pilgrims were pleased with
their
great harvest. to
celebrate their first harvest, the
pilgrims wanted to thank god
and the
native indian. they invited squanto and the entire
wampanoag tribe that celebrate together
in a shared feast.
it was
said about ninety wampanoag turned up, much to the
surprise of the pilgrims, whose
population had shrunk to no
more than
50. the chief of the tribe had his men hunt five
deer
to bring to the feast. the first
thanksgiving dinner had an
elaborate
menu with venison, wild turkey, goose, duck,
crane,
swan, and other waterfowl; they
also has local seafood: clams,
lobsters, mussels, salmon, cod, bass,
herring, shad, bluefish,
lots of eel
and oysters. they also cooked plenty of
vegetables,
among them squash, pumpkins
and beans were the most
popular.
they
ate raspberries, strawberries, grapes, plums,
cherries,
blueberries, walnuts,
chestnuts, acorns, hickory and ground
nuts, wheat flour, indian corn and corn
meal and they made
beer out of barley.
the pumpkin pudding was later developed
into the traditional pumpkin
pie.
the first
thanksgiving dinner is said to have lasted from
three
days to one week with much food,
beer and liquor. the pilgrims
and the
native indian sat together on the ground, shared
food
with fingers or used rough plates
made of wood or stale bread.
they ran
races, played old english games and staged parades
during the festive, with marches, drums
and firing of their
muskets.
thanksgiving related to the
bible
the phrase
thanksgiving initially comes from the bible. the
pilgrims of plymouth, however, were
mainly puritans and strict
calvinist
protestants. they only observed three religious
holidays from the new testament: sunday
sabbath, days of
fasting and
humiliation and thanksgiving. thanksgiving marked
favourable (mercies) in community
life.
the first
thanksgiving festival was indeed a time of
happiness,
fellowship and rejoicing for
the pilgrims. they arranged a
friendly
treaty with the native american indians, built
houses in
the wilderness, and raised
sufficient crops to feed themselves
for
the upcoming long winter. the pilgrims had become
the first
generation of settlers in
this new land holding so much
promise.
from
then on, thanksgiving became a holiday for
celebrating
the harvest in the new
world, dates varied from october to
november each year over the next 150
years.
thanksgiving, the
national holiday
the first
national thanksgiving was declared by the
continental
congress in 1777. on
october 3, 1789, president george
washington declared that the people of
the united states
should observe a day
of public thanksgiving and prayer on
thursday, 26 november.
many say the credit for the
establishment of an annual
thanksgiving
holiday should be given to sarah josepha hale.
being the editor of ladies magazine and
godeys ladys book,
she lobbied to the
governors, senators, and presidents for a
national holiday and published stories
and recipes for that day
in her
magazine. after 36 years of crusading, she won her
battle. in 1863, buoyed by the union
victory at gettysburg,
president
lincoln proclaimed that november 26, would be a
national thanksgiving day, to be
observed every year on the
fourth
thursday of november.
in
1941, a congressional joint resolution set the
fourth
thursday of november as a
national holiday for thanksgiving.
there you are - the brief history of
thanksgiving- a day in
america for
families and friends to gather together. the
festival
is also celebrated by
americans living abroad. thanks to the
native americans and the pilgrims who
created this idea of a
day of
thanksgiving all those live in the new world can
be
thankful for all we have and share
the joy with our family
members and
friends.
thanksgiving day
is a harvest festival. traditionally, it is a time
to give thanks for the harvest and
express gratitude in general.
it is a
holiday celebrated primarily in the united states
and now
is primarily identified as a
secular holiday.
this
thursday is thanksgiving day. the writer o. hey
called it
the one day that is purely
american. thanksgiving is not a
religious holiday. but it has spiritual
meaning. some americans
attend
religious services on the day before thanksgiving,
or on
thanksgiving morning. others
travel long distances to be with
their
families. they have a large dinner, which is the
main part
of the
celebration.
for many
americans, thanksgiving is the only time when all
members of a family gather. the holiday
is a time of family
reunion.
对许多美国人来说,感恩节这一天是所有家庭成员欢聚一堂
的难得
时光。这个节日是家
人团聚的时刻。
thanksgiving week is generally one of the busiest
travel times
of the year. many
americans who usually visit family and
friends by plane are driving shorter
distances instead this
week. some
mental-health experts say the attacks have
frightened people. they say people feel
safer and happier close
to
home.
感恩节这一周通常是
全年中人们出行最为繁忙的时段之一。许多经
常坐飞机走亲访友的美国人这一周将改为短
途驾车。一些心理健康
专家认为,恐怖袭击令人们感到恐慌。他们说,人们在离家较近的
地方会觉得更安全、更快乐。
more than any other holiday, thanksgiving is a
celebration of
family and home. many
people say that this year they are
especially thankful for their families
and friends and the good
things in
their lives. on thanksgiving, people enjoy a long
day
of cooking, eating and talking. the
traditional meal almost
always includes
a turkey with a bread mixture cooked
inside.
