is an ancient festival
created by Americans,
lasting from Thursday to Sunday.

那么感恩节也不例外

Every Thanksgiving Day,
the whole country is buzzing.
People have to pray on the streets
so that streets are
especially crowded on that day.

人们不约而同出街进行祈祷

Black Friday
黑色星期五
Crazy shopping month starts from the
next day of Thanksgiving.
The reason why it is named
Black Friday
is that all the people
rush into the mall to hunt
many bargains
in the early morning.
疯狂的购物月从感恩节的次日开始
之所以被称为黑色星期五
据说是因为人们会一大早摸黑
冲到商场买便宜货

Festival Food & Activities
节日美食&活动
The Thanksgiving Day dinner usually
includes turkey or ham, vegetables,
and pies made of
fall-harvest fillings such
as apples or pumpkins.
感恩节大餐通常包括火鸡、火腿、蔬菜和
各种苹果派、南瓜派
After the feast,
some people engage in
recreational activities
such as watching competitions
or playing sports.
Besides,
a Thanksgiving Day nap is a
well-established activity,
but perhaps you will accidentally
have a food coma.
盛宴过后
人们会进行各种休闲活动
比如看比赛或者游戏运动
除此之外
感恩节小睡也是一项历史悠久的活动
但是如果一个不小心
你也可能会陷入“食物昏迷”而呼呼大睡
Having seen these customs above,
you may have knowledge of Thanksgiving.
As we all know,
originally people give thanks to God
for the harvest and for health.
Nowadays,
perhaps everyone's Thanksgiving
is not only for the material things
given to us
but also for those who care for us
in whatever small way.
看了以上这些感恩节习俗
你应该对感恩节有所了解了吧
就像我们知道的那样
起初人们只是为了感谢
上帝给予的食物和健康
现如今也许人们的感恩并不仅仅是
为了感谢物质的存在
还为了感谢那些无论是以多么
微小的付出来给予我们关心的人
Actually,
it’s easy for us to express our thanks.
Just gift them a tight-warm hug,
a beautiful flower,
a pretty Thank You card or a beautiful
Thanksgiving Day Gift
to express your sincerest love
and admiration for them.
其实感恩很简单
一个拥抱、一朵漂亮的鲜花、一张好看的感谢卡
或一份感恩节礼物都可以用来表达
你对他们真挚的爱和感恩之情
