Nearly 400 years ago the first European settlers in America
had a lot to be thankful for. They had survived a dangerous
journey across the Atlantic Ocean. They had survived a harsh New
England winter. With the help of the local Wampanoag people
they had learned to plant crops in the poor soil. They were the
first of many to struggle for a better life in the New World.
大约四百年前，第一批欧洲移民来到美国，并心存无限的感恩。他们经历危险旅程横跨大西洋；他们熬过新英格兰艰苦寒冷的冬天。在当地印第安种族瓦帕浓人的帮助下，他们学会了在贫瘠的土地上种植玉米。这些所有的第一次的努力都是为他们新家园的美好未来。
Today Thanksgiving is celebrated in North America by both
the United States and Canada. Much like China’s Spring Festival,
Thanksgiving is a time for family. On Wednesday an estimated 46
million Americans will travel long distances to return home. On
Thursday Americans all over the world will be calling home to
celebrate with friends and family.
北美的加拿大和美国还是保留庆祝感恩节的传统。和中国传统春节相似，感恩节是一家团聚的时刻。预计在感恩节前两天将会有四千六百万美国人长途跋涉赶回家中。而在感恩节当天家人朋友们欢聚一堂，不能归家的美国人将会从电话一端传来给全家的祝福。
Thanksgiving is a time to remember how good life is. It is a
time to be thankful for all that you have. It’s a time for food,
friends, fun and most importantly family.
感恩节给大家提供一个铭记美好生活的机会，是一个对自己所拥有的美好事物的感恩，是与你最爱的父母家人，朋友，乐趣和食物共享美好时光。
This year, take a moment to think of what you are thankful
for. Take the time to say thank you to those who help you.
Remember there are those who don’t have a warm place to sleep at
night. There are those who don’t have enough food to eat. There
are those who are not safe in their homes.
小朋友们，想一想自己有没有需要感谢的事情噢。想一想那些帮助过你们的人。在世界的某处有很多人在夜晚没有安眠之处，在世界某处没有足够的食物果腹，在世界某处被战火笼罩没有安全的家园。
I am thankful for the sunshine. I am thankful for the rain.
I am thankful for baozi, and jiaozi, and noodles. I am thankful
for my family. I am thankful for my friends. I am thankful I
have a home. I am thankful I have food to eat. What are you
thankful for?
我感谢阳光，我感谢雨水。我感谢好吃的包子，饺子和面条。我感谢我的家人们。我感谢我的朋友们。我感恩我拥有一个家，我感恩我能够有足够的食物。那么小朋友们，你们想感恩什么？
