In recent years, the public has gotten to name the turkeys in online polls; the paired turkeys have gotten creative names such as Stars and Stripes, Biscuit and Gravy and Marshmallow and Yam.
近年来,民众开始通过网络投票,为被赦免的火鸡取名。它们的名字颇具创意,比如星星和横条,饼干和肉汁,棉花糖和山药。
5. THANKSGIVING PARADES
感恩节游行
Everyone knows about the Macy's Parade, but for a more historically accurate parade, check out America's Hometown Thanksgiving Parade in Plymouth. The America's Hometown Thanksgiving Parade is an annual parade held in Plymouth, Massachusetts. The parade, which began in 1996, is traditionally held the weekend before Thanksgiving and draws its name from the fact that Plymouth Colony was the landing point of the Pilgrims involved in the traditional "First Thanksgiving" in the early 1620s.
所有人都知道梅西感恩节大游行,但要说历史更悠久的,当属普利茅斯的美国故乡感恩节游行。美国故乡感恩节游行是马萨诸塞州普利茅斯举办的年度游行,该活动始于1996年,通常在感恩节之前的那个周末举行。普利茅斯的游行活动之所以叫“美国故乡感恩节游行”,是因为17世纪20年代初期,五月花号上的第一批清教徒的登陆地点正是普利茅斯殖民地。
Unlike most Thanksgiving parades, which include giant balloons of popular characters, the America's Hometown parade has a strict theme. Each element in the parade is based on the history of the United States and arranged in chronological order, with five divisions separated by century: the colonial period of the 17th century, the Revolutionary period of the 18th century, the Civil War and pioneer periods of the 19th century, military and automotive showcases from the 20th and 21st centuries, and the closing division, the last of which includes the traditional Santa Claus float.
