On the fourth Thursday in November, in houses around the United States, families get together for a feast or a large meal. Almost all families eat turkey and cranberry sauce for this meal and have pumpkin pie for dessert. This feast is part of a very special day, the holiday of Thanksgiving. In 1620 the Pilgrims made a difficult trip across the ocean from England. They landed in what is now Massachusetts. In England, the Pilgrims had not been allowed to freely practice their religion. So they went to the New World in search of religious freedom. The Pilgrims' first winter was very hard. Almost half the group died of cold, hunger, and disease. But the Indians of Massachusetts taught the Pilgrims to plant corn, to hunt and to fish. When the next fall came, the Pilgrims had plenty of food. They were thankful to God and the Indians and had a feast to give thanks. They invited the Indians to join them. This was the first Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving became a national holiday many years later because of the effort of a woman named Sarah Hale. For forty years Sarah Hale wrote to each president and asked for a holiday of Thanksgiving. At last, she was successful. In 1863, President Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a holiday. How much is Thanksgiving today like the Pilgrims’ Thanksgiving? In many ways they are different. For example, historians think that the Pilgrims ate deer, not turkey. The idea of Thanksgiving, though, is very much the same: Thanksgiving is a day on which we celebrate and give thanks.

I went to Australia on a student program last year and I like to you about it. I was very when I knew I was going to Australia because I had never been there before. I didn’t think about the problems of speaking English I met my host family. At first, I couldn’t communicate with them because my English was so bad. All the five years I had been learning English wasn’t much used at all we didn’t have real practice at school. Even though my grammar was good, my pronunciation wasn’t. My problem is ‘l’ and ‘r’. For example, Australian people often asked: “What do you eat in Vietnam?” I wanted to tell them that we eat rice, but they didn’t understand when I said: “We eat lice”…
