Holidays in the USA
Thanksgiving Day I think, there are, probably, two holidays, that are often considered the two most special family holidays. Thanksgiving is one of our biggest holidays. It occurs on the last Thursday of the month of November. And usually for schoolchildren, they have been going to school since early September or late August, and it's the first vacation, they have for three, four, five days. So, they wait to get to Thanksgiving, and when Thanksgiving comes, everyone, all the children and the teachers are very happy: it's their first big break. And oftentimes families then will meet on that Thursday, and they will have a big dinner, turkey dinner, and a very, very special course of food that is prepared for Thanksgiving. So, Thanksgiving is considered one of the biggest holidays.
Christmas in the U. S. A The second largest holiday, I think, maybe, even bigger, is Christmas is considered one of the biggest holidays. And, of course, we give gifts to family members, friends and loved ones on Christmas. Officially Christmas and New Year celebrations run from the 24 th of December to the 2 nd of January. How many days are people actually off during X-mas holidays?
