少兒英語故事:感恩節(jié)的由來
來源:新東方發(fā)布時間:2013-06-16
Most stories of Thanksgiving history start with the harvest celebration of the pilgrims and the Native Americans that took place in the autumn of 1621. Although they did have a three-day feast in celebration of a good harvest, and the local natives did participate, this "first thanksgiving" was not a holiday, simply a gathering. There is little evidence that this feast of thanks led directly to our modern Thanksgiving Day holiday. Thanksgiving can, however, be traced back to 1863 when Pres. Lincoln became the first president to proclaim Thanksgiving Day. The holiday has been a fixture of late November ever since.
However, since most school children are taught that the first Thanksgiving was held in 1621 with the Pilgrims and Indians, let us take a closer look at just what took place leading up to that event, and then what happened in the centuries afterward that finally gave us our modern Thanksgiving.
參考譯文:
感恩與朝圣者和發(fā)生在1621年秋天舉行的美洲原住民慶祝豐收的歷史開始的樓層最多。雖然他們確實(shí)有一個好收成的慶祝為期三天的節(jié)日,和當(dāng)?shù)赝寥舜_實(shí)參與,這個“第一次感恩節(jié)”是不放假,只是一個聚會。很少有證據(jù)表明,這直接導(dǎo)致的感謝我們的節(jié)日感恩節(jié)假期現(xiàn)代化。感恩可以,但是,要追溯到1863年的時候普雷什。林肯成為第一位總統(tǒng)宣布感恩節(jié)。這個節(jié)日一直是11月下旬以來,夾具。
然而,由于大多數(shù)學(xué)校教導(dǎo)孩子們第一次感恩節(jié)是在1621年舉行的朝圣者和印第安人,只是讓我們看看發(fā)生了什么導(dǎo)致這一事件仔細(xì)一看,然后又如何在數(shù)百年之后,終于發(fā)生了我們的現(xiàn)代感恩節(jié)。
