In our days people in America still celebrate Thanksgiving day, mentally thank the God and that indians and eat turkey as a traditional meal on this day.
День Благодарения - национальный американский праздник. Он берёт начало с давних пор. Если я не ошибаюсь, когда первые колонии стали заселять Америку, у них совсем не было еды и, возможно, они бы умерли от голода. Если бы не индейцы, которые дали им еду. Принято считать, что первая еда, которую получили люди - это индейка, кукуруза, тыква и кленовый сироп.
В наши дни люди в Америке до сих пор празднуют День Благодарения, мысленно воздают благодарность Богу и тем индейцам и едят индейку в качестве традиционного блюда в этот день.
I get up at half past seven every morning. I clean my teeth, make my bed, do morning exercises, have breakfast and go to school.
My lessons at school start at nine o’clock. Usually I have six lessons a day. We have breaks for the rest between our lessons. After the third lesson we usually have lunch. I have lunch in our canteen.
After school I go home and have dinner. After dinner I like to go for a walk with my best friend. But twice a week I go to the swimming pool after school. I like it very much.
At five o’clock I do my homework. After it I usually help my mother with my younger sister. We play together. Sometimes I read fairy tales to my sister.
