【题目】A special day in the United States is Thanksgiving Day. It is always on the fourth Thursday of November. Usually, family members and friends get together for a big dinner. People sometimes drive their cars a long way for a family reunion(团聚). Many people also take Friday off and make it a long weekend holiday, because most Americans do not work on Saturdays or Sundays. Thanksgiving Day began in 1621, the second year after the first English settlers(定居者) reached the new world. They did not have enough food. But the American Indians helped the white men and taught them how to farm.

In the autumn after the English settlers came to America, they had a good harvest(丰收). They were so pleased. They decided to invite their Indian friends to dinner in order to (为了) thank them for their help. In terms of a family reunion, Thanksgiving Day is even more important than Christmas Day or New Year's Day to most Americans.
