Thanksgiving Day is the most truly American holiday in the United States.
In 1620, the settlers, or Pilgrims, sailed to America on the May Flower. They wanted to find a place where they could have freedom to worship（敬拜）God.
During their first winter, over half of the settlers died because they were cold and hungry. Those alive began sowing（播种）in the first spring.
All summer long they waited and finally the fields produced a rich harvest. And so they decided that a day of thanksgiving to the Lord should be fixed. Years later, President of the Unite States proclaimed（宣布）the fourth Thursday of November as Thanksgiving Day every year. The celebration of Thanksgiving Day has been on that date until today.
The Thanksgiving celebration has never changed through the years. The big family dinner is planned months ahead. On the dinner table, people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes. There will be varieties of food. The best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and pumpkin pie. They are the most traditional and favorite food on Thanksgiving Day.
