The annual Thanksgiving tradition in the United States can be traced back to the 17^th century. In 1621, after a hard and devastating first year in the New World, the English Pilgrims had a very successful and plentiful fall harvest. The Pilgrims, who had settled Plymouth Colony (in present day Massachusetts), soon made peace with the local Native American tribe, the Wampanoag. To celebrate the harvest, the Pilgrims and the Native Americans joined together to feast. Since then, an annual day of Thanksgiving has been celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November.

Exercise 4. Read the text.

“Being the eldest”

The way I am today is a complete reflection of my position in the family. When people ask me questions, I always feel I have to know the answer, because my brothers always assumed I knew everything.

I was the one who did everything first, like learning to read. I didn’t always want to be the first, but I felt I had to.

I always helped with the housework. As I was the only girl, my mom often used to say “Jane, could you wash up? Jane, can you make the supper?”. Of course, my brothers were

never asked.

I was completely aware of the power I had being the eldest, and in retrospect I think I was probably very bossy, and in a way selfish, because I did everything myself and didn’t give the others the opportunity. When my brothers grew up, it took me ages to accept that they were independent adults – I still think of my brother Michael as twelve years old, and in fact he’s a father himself now!

And I’ve continued being the one who has to look after people even today. My job involves looking after people, and my husband is a “youngest child” himself, and I end up looking after him too. I think I would be a more relaxed person today and worry less if I hadn’t been an eldest child.

b She didn’t like being the first to do everything.

c She thought it was her obligation to do everything first.
