(36~38) It’s hard for people to think of any Thanksgiving without turkey. According to the National Turkey Federation,Americans eat up more than 46 million turkeys on this holiday alone! Every year, before the President of the United Statescan sit down and enjoy a Thanksgiving meal with his family, he must first go through the strange tradition of "pardoning" theturkey. The lucky bird wouldn’t be a dish on the table. Although people aren’t sure why they have to repeat the tradition year after year. Here is a story about PresidentLincoln in 1863. As the story goes, Lincoln's son, Tad, might talk his father into not eating the turkey they bought forChristmas dinner. They kept it as a pet, naming it Jack. However, it would be more than 100 years until President John F.Kennedy formally freed a turkey in front of the White House. People may think these turkeys will live happily ever after. Areport CNN did in 2013 brought us back to reality. They wanted to know what happened to the turkeys after they werepardoned. Sadly, they found that the birds rarely lived longer than for a few months after they were saved from being eaten. according to 根據 federation 聯盟 pardon 寬恕 formally 正式地 rarely 罕見的 be eaten 被吃 reality 現實
