On March 16,1621 ,what was to become an important event took place,an Indian brave walked into the Plymouth settlement.The Pilgrims were frightened until the Indian called out "Welcome" (in English!).
His name was Samoset and he was an Abnaki Indian.He had learned English from the captains of fishing boats that had sailed off the coast.After staying the night Samoset left the next day.He soon returned with another Indian named Squanto who spoke better English than Samoset.Squanto told the Pilgrims of his voyages across the ocean and his visits to England and Spain.It was in England where he had learned English.
Squanto's importance to the Pilgrims was enormous and it can be said that they would not have survived without his help.It was Squanto who taught the Pilgrims how to tap the maple trees for sap.He taught them which plants were poisonous and which had medicinal powers.He taught them how to plant the Indian corn by heaping the earth into low mounds with several seeds and fish in each mound.The decaying fish fertilized the corn.He also taught them to plant other crops with the corn

斯匡托对于朝圣者的重要性是非常巨大的.如果没有他的帮助,他们甚至无法存活下来.斯匡托教导朝圣者如何从枫树顶端收集糖浆.他告诉他们哪些植物有毒,哪些植物可以做药.他教会他们如何将土壤做成土陇,然后每个土陇里面植入一些种子和鱼.腐败的鱼会给玉米肥力.他还教会他们如何和玉米一起种植其他的庄稼.
