5、假三天。即使远在异乡的美国人也都要在节日前赶回去与家人团聚，共庆佳节。美国人对感恩节重视的程度，堪与传统的盛大节日圣诞节相比。 为什么叫感恩节呢？追根溯源，感恩节是和美洲古代的印第安人，特别是和玉米的种植有十分密切的关系。1620年9月6日，一批英国清教徒难以忍受宗教的迫害，搭乘“五月花号”木船驶往美洲。他们在疲劳、饥饿、寒冷和疾病的袭击下在大西洋上漂泊了65天，最后到达北美殖民地的普利茅斯。当时正值冬季，气候严寒，田野寂寥。当地印第安人慷慨地拿出贮藏越冬的玉米和土豆，送去猎获的野鸭和火鸡。春天来了，印第安人教他们种植玉米和南瓜，饲养火鸡。白人移民和印第安人建立了亲密的友谊。这年秋季玉米丰收，

6、移民们举行了丰盛的感恩会，用烤火鸡和玉米糕点款待印第安人。印第安人带着各种玉米制品、烤火鸡、南瓜馅饼、野葡萄以及玉米酒浆等参加晚会，人们欢唱歌舞，通霄达旦。以后在每年玉米收获后的11月底，定居在这里的白人移民都要举行感恩会，家家烤火鸡，烹制玉米食品，款待印第安人。长此以往，这种感恩会就成为一种惯例。但是，当时感恩节的时间并不固定，直至1863年，美国总统林肯宣布把感恩节定为全国性的节日，号召人民同心同德，为美国的繁荣昌盛作出努力。为了纪念感恩节，在普利茅斯城的萨摩特大街修建了一座巨大的移民先驱者纪念碑。高达10米的乳白色先民雕像，搭着披肩，手指苍穹，在四块大理石浮雌上描述了到普利茅斯未的第一批

7、移民的故事和感恩节的渊源。现今，玉米制品仍然是欢度感恩节的不可缺少的食品之。 每逢感恩节这一天，美国举国上下热闹非常，人们按照习俗前往教堂做感恩祈祷，城乡市镇到处都有化装游行、戏剧表演或体育比赛等。劳燕分飞了一年的亲人们也会从天南海北归来，一家人团团圆圆，品尝美味的感恩节火鸡。 感恩节的食品富有传统特色。火鸡是感恩节的传统主菜，通常是把火鸡肚子里塞上各种调料和拌好的食品，然后整只烤出，由男主人用刀切成薄片分给大家。此外，感恩节的传统食品还有甜山芋、玉蜀黍、南瓜饼、红莓苔子果酱等。 感恩节宴会后，人们有时会做些传统游戏，比如南瓜赛跑是比赛者用一把小勺推着南瓜跑，规则是不能用手碰南瓜，先到终点者获

8、胜。比赛用的勺子越小，游戏就越有意思。 多少年来，庆祝感恩节的习俗代代相传，无论在岩石嶙峋的西海岸还是在风光旖旎的夏威夷，人们几乎在以同样的方式欢度感恩节，感恩节是不论何种信仰、何种民族的美国人都庆祝的传统节日。Lesson 301.How long have Americans been celebrating Thanksgiving?2.When was this holiday celebrated in the modern way?3.Who were the hosts and who were the guests at the first Thanksgiving meal?
