What is the subject of this conversation?
M: How are you going to spend this year’s Thanksgiving vacation?
W: I’m going to spend it with my family. We celebrate very traditionally. We go to my grandparents’ house and have a big Thanksgiving dinner. It’s really the only time in the year that my whole family gets together.
M: In my family we just have a big feast, too. We don’t really stop and think about how Thanksgiving Day developed, how new colonists in Massachusetts had a three-day fest to give thanks for surviving the first terrible winter and for gathering their first corn harvest the following year.
W: Did you know that the original Thanksgiving Day was celebrated in July?
M: No, I thought Thanksgiving had always been in November.
W: The first Thanksgiving was celebrated on July 30, 1623. After that, Thanksgiving was celebrated at many different times. It wasn’t until 1863 that Abraham Lincoln declared the last Thursday in November as a day of Thanksgiving, and this holiday has been celebrated in November ever since.
选项
A、The terrible winter.
B、The corn harvest.
C、The development of Thanksgiving Day.
D、For getting the whole family together.
答案
B
解析
这是一道细节题。在男生介绍有关感恩节传统的时候,他说“new colonists in Massachusetts had a three-day fest to give thanks for surviving the first terrible winter and for gathering their first corn harvest the following year.”说明最初的殖民者庆祝感恩节就是感谢(上帝)他们度过了第一个严冬同时也庆祝他们所获得的第一笔收成。所以答案应当选择B项。
