(It’s 6 p.m. on thanksgiving Day at the Clarks’ apartment. Jeff, Mia, Lori and Heidi are just sitting down to eat a big Thanksgiving dinner.)
　　Heidi: Wow, what a feast¹! Turkey, potatoes, stuffing...
　　Jeff: Well, Mom and I have been cooking all day1.
　　Heidi: What? Mia didn’t help?
　　Mia: I made the pumpkin pie!
　　Heidi: Uh-oh. Thanks for letting me know.
　　Mia: Very funny!
　　Heidi: Just kidding. I’m sure it’s delicious.
　　Mia: Thanks. Well, should we give thanks for the food? Then we can eat!
　　Jeff: No, wait! There’s something we need to do first. It’s time for a Clark family tradition². The telling of the First Thanksgiving story! In 1620, a group of people called the Pilgrim² arrived in America from England.
　　Lori: Their first winter in America was terrible. They didn’t have enough food.
　　Jeff: Or good houses to live in.
　　Lori: Half of the Pilgrims died that winter.
　　Jeff: The rest of the Pilgrims were very dad.
　　Lori: By the next spring, some Native Americans made friends with the Pilgrims.
　　Jeff: They said they would teach the Pilgrims how to hunt and how to grow food.
　　Lori: By the next fall, the Pilgrims had plenty of food.
　　Jeff: So they had a big feast. They thanked God for his blessings.
　　Lori: And thanked the Native Americans³for their help!
　　Jeff: Everyone ate and ate and ate.
　　Mia: And now it’s time for us to eat and eat and eat!
　　
　　(15 minutes later)
　　Jeff: Did everyone get enough to eat?
　　 Heidi: Yes. More than enough.
　　Jeff: Good. Now it’s time for another Clark family Thanksgiving tradition.
　　Heidi: What’s that?
　　Mia: It’s time to share what we’re thankful for this year!
　　Jeff: Right!
　　Heidi: I’m thankful for wonderful friends to spend the holidays with! What about you, Jeff?
　　Jeff: I’m thankful that since Mom and I did the cooking, Mia has to do all the dishes!
　　Mia: Very funny.
　　(They all laugh.)
　　
　　(感恩节下午6点，在克拉克家公寓，杰夫、米娅、罗莉和海迪刚刚坐下来，享受感恩节晚餐。)
　　海迪：哇，好丰盛的大餐！火鸡、马铃薯、火鸡填馅……
　　杰夫：是啊，我和妈妈一整天都在煮东西。
　　海迪：什么？米娅没帮忙吗？
　　米娅：南瓜派是我做的！
　　海迪：哎呀。谢谢你告诉我。
　　米娅：真好笑啊。
　　海迪：开玩笑啦。我相信会很好吃的。
　　米娅：谢了。嗯，我们可以为食物感恩了吗? 然后我们就可以吃了！
　　杰夫：不，等一下。我们先要做一件事。杰克拉家庭传统的时间到了。说“第一个感恩节”的故事。1620年，有一群称为“清教徒”的人从英国来到了美洲。
　　罗莉：他们在美洲的第一个冬天，过得非常糟糕。他们没有足够的食物。
　　杰夫：也没有好的地方可以住。
　　罗莉：那年冬天，有一半的清教徒丧命。
　　杰夫：其余的人非常难过。
　　罗莉：次年春天，一些美洲原住民与清教徒成为了朋友。
　　杰夫：他们说要教清教徒打猎及种植粮食作物。
　　罗莉：次年秋天呢，清教徒们就有很多食物了。
　　杰夫：他们举办了一场盛大的宴会，感谢上帝给他们的祝福。
　　罗莉：也感谢美洲原住民的帮助！
　　杰夫：每个人吃了又吃，吃了再吃。
　　米娅：而现在呢？该换我们吃了再吃了！
　　
　　（15分钟后）
　　杰夫：大家吃的东西都够了吗？
　　海迪：是啊，太丰盛了。
　　杰夫：太好了。现在该上演另一个“克拉克感恩节传统”了。
　　海迪：是什么？
　　米娅：现在我们要分享今年一些感恩的事！
　　杰夫： 没错！
　　海迪： 我很感恩， 因为有这么多很棒的朋友可以一起过节！你呢，杰夫？
　　杰夫： 我很感恩，因为东西是妈妈和我煮的，所以米娅要洗全部的盘子！
　　米娅： 太好笑了吧。
　　（大家都笑了）
