Thanksgiving is celebrated in both the United States and Canada to give thanks at the end of harvest season. Native Americans have long held ceremonies to give thanks for successful harvests and other blessings. In the US, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November and involves families gathering for a feast of traditional foods like turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and pie, as well as activities like watching parades, traveling to be with family, and playing games after the large meal.
Americans celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November to give thanks for food and blessings. The tradition started in 1620 when Pilgrims from England traveled on the Mayflower to start a new life in North America. When they arrived, it was nearly winter so they faced a difficult first year with lack of food and many deaths. The following year, the Pilgrims had a successful harvest thanks to the help of Native Americans, and held a celebration which is now known as the first Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving is an American and Canadian holiday celebrated on the last Thursday of November. The first Thanksgiving was a harvest feast shared between the Pilgrims and Wampanoag Native Americans in 1621. Today, people celebrate by gathering with family for a traditional meal that often includes turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie. They watch football and parades, and shop on Black Friday sales the following day. The true meaning of Thanksgiving is being thankful and spending time with loved ones.
Thanksgiving is a North American holiday celebrated in late November that originated from the English Pilgrims' harvest feast in 1621. It is traditionally celebrated with a large meal including turkey, stuffing, potatoes, vegetables, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie.

The Pilgrims were English people who left on the Mayflower in 1620 to start a new life in America. They arrived in Plymouth after a difficult journey. Life was hard and their crops failed, leaving them starving. The native Wampanoag tribe, including Squanto, helped the Pilgrims by giving them food and teaching them survival skills. The next harvest was successful, so the Pilgrims held a feast to thank the natives, establishing the Thanksgiving tradition still celebrated today in America.
Americans celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November to give thanks for food and blessings. The tradition began in 1620 when Pilgrims arrived in Massachusetts after a difficult 65-day voyage from England on the Mayflower. The following year, the Pilgrims had a successful harvest thanks to the help of Native Americans like the Wampanoag, who taught the Pilgrims farming and hunting. To celebrate the plentiful food, the Pilgrims and Native Americans shared the first Thanksgiving dinner.

2. ИЗ ИСТОРИИ ПРАЗДНИКА
День- благодарения- один из самых
любимых американских праздников. Он
отмечается каждый последний четверг
ноября. Его история началась в 1621 году,
когда первые переселенцы из Англии
высадились на американский берег в
холодный ноябрьский день.
3. 26 декабря 1620 года после
двухмесячного плавания к берегам
Массачусетса к мысу Cape Cod причалил
корабль Mayflower. Большинство
пассажиров принадлежало к
преследуемой в Англии секте пуритан.
Новоявленные пилигримы пустились в
столь опасное путешествие в надежде
основать в Новом Свете колонию, где они
смогли бы, наконец, обрести
вожделенную свободу.
5. 1 апреля 1621 года к Плимутскому
поселению, как оно тогда называлось,
вышли два индейца — Самосет и
Скуанто. Они известили колонистов
Плимута о прибытии Massasoit —
вождя племен Вампаноаг, обитавших
на территории нынешних штатов
Массачусетс и Род-Айленд. С ним
были заключены мирный договор и
военный союз.
6.
А Скуанто стал не просто другом
и переводчиком колонистов
Плимута, но их ангелом–
хранителем. Он обучил
пилигримов маленьким, но
жизненно необходимым
«хитростям» жизни на новой
земле. Например, особенностям
выращивания кукурузы в
условиях холмистой местности,
используя рыбу в качестве
удобрения, способам лова диких
индюшек, научил выращивать
табак, бобы и тыквы, отличать
съедобные растения от
ядовитых, показал родники с
питьевой водой, охотничьи
тропы и рыбные места.
7. Благодаря его помощи урожай в
октябре был очень обильным, и
плимутцы смогли запастись
достаточным количеством пропитания
на всю зиму. У них было вдоволь
кукурузы, фруктов и овощей, вяленой
рыбы и копченого мяса.
8. Губернатор пилигримов Уильям
Брэдфорд установил день
Благодарения для всех колонистов и
их добрых соседей — индейцев. На
празднование, кроме Сэмосэта и
Скуанто, пришел вождь племени, а с
ним еще 90 смельчаков. Три дня
гремели барабаны и раздавался салют
из ружей. Но не этот день стал
прототипом современного праздника.
9. Второе лето на новом месте было не
таким удачным, а третье и вовсе
выдалось засушливым. Тогда Брэдфорд
назначил день поста и молитв, и вскоре
после того пошел дождь! Чтобы отметить
это чудесное событие, и был установлен
День Благодарения.
10. Индейцы принесли с собой краснокоричневых индеек, которых зажарили
на костре. С тех пор жареная индейка
стала традиционным праздничным
блюдом дня Благодарения.
11. 26 ноября 1941 года президент США
Рузвельт утвердил этот день как
официальный Национальный День
Благодарения.
С тех пор каждый год День
Благодарения в США отмечают в
четвертый четверг ноября.
12.
Пуритане привнесли в этот праздник глубокий
религиозный смысл - они видели в нем способ
поблагодарить Всевышнего за милости.
С Днем благодарения связан ряд традиций,
которые американцы свято хранят и соблюдают.
Все члены семьи обязательно должны сходить в
церковь, а после службы собраться за
праздничным столом.
13. На обед принято готовить
то, что переселенцы из
Англии ели на первом Дне
Благодарения в 1621 г :
фаршированную индейку
с клюквенным вареньем
и сладкий пирог с
тыквенной начинкой.
14. ПРАЗДНИЧНОЕ МЕНЮ:
индейка,
сладкий картофель ямс со взбитым
цветочным соусом,
клюквенный соус,
начинка из сухарных кубиков со
специями,
картофель (обычно пюре со сливками),
бататы,
тыквенный пирог и подливка.
15. В преддверии Дня благодарения
расцветает благотворительность:
американцы стараются накормить и
как-то порадовать своих ближних,
которым не повезло в жизни.
16. В День Благодарения во всех городах
США проходят массовые гуляния.
Самый грандиозный парад
устраивается в Нью-Йорке. Его
организовывает крупнейший в мире
универмаг «Мейси».Главная
достопримечательность парадаогромные надувные игрушки- герои
мультфильмов и сказок. Первый парад
прошелся вдоль западного края
Центрального Парка Нью-Йорка в 1924
году
17. «A SAILOR WENT TO SEA, SEA, SEA»
A sailor went to sea, sea, sea,
To see what he could see see, see.
but all that he could see, see, see,
Was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea.
2nd version:
A sailor went to sea, sea, sea
To see what he could see, see, see
But all that he could see, see, see
Was the deep, dark bottom of the sea, sea, sea.
A sailor went to chop, chop, chop.....
A sailor went to knee, knee, knee.....
A sailor went to toe, toe, toe.....
A sailor went to oo-washy-wash.....
A sailor went to sea, chop, knee, toe, oo-washywash
18.
T for time to be together, turkey, talk, and tangy weather.
H for harvest stored away, home, and hearth, and holiday.
A for autumn’s frosty art, and abundance in the heart.
N for neighbors, and November, nice things, new things to remember.
K for kitchen, kettles’ croon, kith and kin expected soon.
S for sizzles, sights, and sounds, and something special that abounds.
That spells «THANKS» for joy in living and a jolly good Thanksgiving!
