Tapescript :

Thanksgiving Day  (1′4″)

On the fourth Thursday of November every year, Americans celebrate Thanksgiving Day. The day is a national holiday which is set aside each year as a time to give thanks to God for our blessings. Legend has it that the first English settlers in Massachusetts, a state in the northeast of the United States started the custom. According to the story, the Pilgrims, as they were called, gave thanks for having survived the terrible winter of 1621 and for having harvested their first summer crops. They invited their Indian friends to join them in a large feast to share in the bounties of the land. The traditional foods of the big Thanksgiving Day meal include roast turkey, cranberries, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie and Indian bread pudding. Since the day is set aside for giving thanks, it has also become a traditional family day. Large dinners with many relatives are common throughout America on this special day.
