感恩节的由来

A three-day harvest celebration held in 1621 in Plymouth Colony (part of today’s Massachusetts) is generally considered to be the first American Thanksgiving。 The Pilgrims had arrived the year before on the ship The Mayflower。 They hadn’t brought enough food， and it was too late to plant crops。 Half the colony died during the winter of 1620–1621. In the spring， local Wampanoag Indians taught the colonists how to grow corn (maize) and other crops， and helped them master hunting and fishing。 They also showed the colonists how to cook cranberries， corn and squash。

1621年在普利茅斯殖民地，即今天的马萨诸塞州，人们举行为时三天的丰收庆典活动，一般被视为美洲的第一个感恩节。前一年，英国清教徒们乘坐“五月花”号抵达美洲大陆。他们没有带足够的粮食，重新种庄稼又太晚。1620至1621年冬，这个殖民地的一半人口不幸丧生。到了春天，当地万帕诺亚格部落的印第安人向外来移民介绍如何种植玉米和其他庄稼，并帮助他们学会狩猎和捕鱼。他们还教他们如何烹制越橘、玉米和南瓜。
