IV. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
THANKSGIVING
Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. For many Americans it is
the most important holiday apart from Christmas. Schools, offices and most businesses close for
Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation.
Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620 the
ship the Mayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims. They
arrived at the beginning of a very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died. But
in the following summer Native Americans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could
save food for the next winter. They held a big celebration to thank God and the Native Americans for the
fact that they had survived.
Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days. The most important part of the
celebration is a traditional dinner with foods that come from North America. The meal includes turkey,
sweet potatoes (also called yams) and cranberries, which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly. The turkey
is filled with stuffing or dressing, and many families have their own special recipe. Dessert is pumpkin
made into a pie.
On Thanksgiving, there are special television programs and sports events. In New York there is the
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march through the
streets with large balloons in the shape of imaginary characters. Thanksgiving is considered the beginning
of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop for Christmas presents.
