  Mother's Day is a holiday for mothers.It is celebrated in the United States,
English,India and some other countries.In a short time,it becomes widely
celebrated.Mother's Day falls on the second Sunday in May.On that day,many
people send gifts(礼物)of love to their mothers.Those whose mothers are still
living often wear a pink(粉红色)or red rose(玫瑰)or carnation(康乃馨花),
while those whose mothers are dead wear a white one.
  The idea of a day for mothers was first given by Miss Anna Jarvis of
Philadelphia.As a result of her hard work,the celebration of the first American
Mother's Day was held in Philadelphia on May 10,1908.Soon the holiday
became popular all over the country and around the world.
  In China,people do the same on the day for mothers.And,in some cities,
people sometimes ask a song to be broadcast(广播)for his or her mother only.
This might cost a little money for some of them,but,as it is said,"Love is
invaluable."

  I am looking forward to hearing from you.

                                    Yours faithfully,
