Thanksgiving

Hot 5642 views. 2017-11-24 18:46

Thanksgiving day in the United States is a holiday on the fourth Thursday of November. It is a traditional day for families and friends to get together with a special meal. Turkey has been so ubiquitous with the holiday. Americans eat the bird whether roasted or deep-fried on Thanksgiving. Other traditional food includes stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. Thanksgiving is also a time for people to show appreciation to someone or something they care and love. Volunteering is a common Thanksgiving activity, and communities often host free dinners for people who are less fortunate.
Today is Thanksgiving day and I want to be thankful for several pupils who are naughty but kind and cute. I took part-time job this term in a cram school and met those naive kids. At weekdays I coach them to complete their homework and do some extra exercises. One day, I caught a cold and felt uncomfortable. They found my malaise and did not chat and shout like before. To my surprise, a girl poured a bottle of water to me to warm my hands and shared her biscuits to me. Although they are naughty and often make me annoyed, I also want to thank them for enriching my extracurricular life and give lots of fun for me.
Gratitude fills up our hearts with purity and love. We may appreciate little things or people surrounding us everyday not only in Thanksgiving day.

While it is a western festival, but I think the meaning of the festival is great. W e do have a lot of people and things to thankful for.We should thank  for love and peace.We born as a Chinese so that we needn't suffer from wars and disease. We should thankful for our parents who give our life and feed us without asking anything back. Moreover,our relatives and teachers also the strangers we don't know but make contributions to our life.W e should appreciate what thay have done for us and the whole society.
