译文：
在大多数国家，人们通常在特殊节日吃传统食物。在美国，感恩节是特别的一天。感恩节总是在11月的第四个星期四，是感谢秋天的食物的时候。
在那时，人们也会怀念大约400年前从英国到美国的第一个旅行者。这些旅行者经历了漫长而艰苦的冬天，许多人都死了。
次年秋天，他们感谢他们的新生活和新食物。
现在，大多数美国人像过去一样，与家人一起吃大餐庆祝感恩节。这顿饭的主菜一般是火鸡，一种很大的鸟类。
准备火鸡晚餐
有一种来制作感恩节晚餐火鸡的方法。
首先，混合一些面包片，洋葱，盐和胡椒。之后，用这个面包混合物填满火鸡。
然后把火鸡放在热炉里烤几个小时。
当准备好了,把火鸡放在一个大盘子上，并教上一些肉汁。
最后，把火鸡切成条然后配着一些蔬菜例如胡萝卜和土豆一起吃。
课文原文
In most countries, people usually eat traditional food on special
holidays. A special day in the United States is Thanksgiving.
It is always on the fourth Thursday in November，and is a time to give thanks
for food in the autumn.
At this time, people also remember the first travelers from England who came to live in America about 400 years ago.
These travelers had a long, hard winter, and many of them died. In the next
autumn, they gave thanks for life and food in their new home.
These days, most Americans still celebrate this idea of giving thanks by
having a big meal at home with their family.
The main dish of this meal is almost always turkey, a large bird.
Making a turkey dinner
Here is one way to make turkey for a Thanksgiving dinner.
First, mix together some bread pieces, onions, salt and pepper.
Next, fill the turkey with this bread mix.
Then, put the turkey in a hot oven and cook it for a few hours.
When it is ready, place the turkey on a large plate and cover it with gravy.
Finally, cut the turkey into thin pieces and eat the meat with vegetables like carrots and potatoes.
