Everyone in the world knows the Chinese
tiger, the Indian elephant and the African lion. In America, everyone knows the
Thanksgiving turkey. It's on the last Thursday in November. It's important to
Americans the same as the Spring Festival is for us. The Thanksgiving turkey is
a wild bird much larger than the chicken. When the American Indians helped the
first Europeans find food for the first Thanksgiving meal, they brought turkeys
because they were very usual. The farmers sell the turkeys to a processing
plant(加工厂)that packages the bird to be sold at
the supermarket. Mothers and grandmothers cook the turkey all morning for the
Thanksgiving dinner. The turkey may be as large as 20 pounds or 10 kilos. One
turkey can feed a very large family and still have some left over. When the
turkey is cooked, the juice from the meat falls on bread to make it very
delicious. There is always a fruit at the meal called cranberry. It grows in
Alaska and has a bitter(有苦味的)taste so it's cooked with
sugar. Vegetables include cooked corn, beans and sweet potatoes. There is a
special kind of bread that is served called dinner rools(晚餐包). They're the size and shape of a small orange. The dinner ends
with either apple pie or pumpkin pie.
Whether Americans travel throughout the
world, this is the dinner they like to eat on Thanksgiving Day.
