People in the United States honor their parents with 2 special days: Mother’s Day on the second Sunday in May and Father’s Day on the 3rd Sunday in June. These days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare.

These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On mother’s Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It’s also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery (grave). On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecue for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.

Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. It’s not the value of the gift that is important, but “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays.

1.Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?

2.What do you know from the passage?

A. Both festivals are in May.

B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past.

C. Not all the children respect their parents.

D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home.

3.Which do you know about “carnation”?

A. It only has two kinds of color.

B. It refers to the special clothes people wear on Mother’s Day.

C. It’s a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.

D. People can wear them only on the second Sunday in May.

4.On Mother’s Day and Father’s Day ___________.

How to Be Successful in School

1.

One really important shortcut (捷径) to success in life is to be successful in school. Examine the relationship between levels of educational achievement and income earned during one’s working life. Education is the best investment (投资) a person can make. The higher one’s level of education, the more income they will be likely to earn and the better life will probably be. Students should make the effort to get the most education they can, and work hard to be successful in school at every level.

2.

Long term means five years or more in the future. Do you want to graduate from college? Get into medical school? Get a law degree? Get an MBA? Get a master’s or PhD? Try to define concrete but realistic long-­term goals for yourself. Then focus on them, thinking about them every time you attempt not to do your homework. Make your long­-term goals motivations for your behavior every day, because every day does count when it comes to being successful in school. It is also important to have short-­term goals that are stepping stones to your long-­term goals.

3.

For each of your education goals, develop a strategy and an action plan. A strategy might be to get math tutoring or to study with a group of friends on a regular basis. An action plan will include several individual tasks with timing and any cost that might be required. If you are a student, start now to understand how to generate goals, strategies and action plans that work; this skill can help you to be successful in school and later, in life.

4.

Habits are formed by practice, by doing. Good study habits are formed by studying on a regular basis for the amount of time required to learn something. One of the most essential keys to being successful in school is to develop good study habits. Once good study habits are formed, you will find that learning and success in school become easier.

5.

If you are a teenager or young adult, don’t let your hormones(荷尔蒙) or other people lead you into irresponsible actions. Self­-indulgent (自我放纵的) behavior and abusive behavior toward others are self­-destructive and unworthy of mature individuals. Work hard to develop strong character by making the virtues of courage, temperance (节制), and justice.

The soldier was too weak to continue, so Lincoln signed the letter for him and added, “Written for your son by Abraham Lincoln.”The young man asked to see the note and was astonished when he discovered who had written it.“Are you really the President？”he asked. “Yes, I am，”replied Lincoln quietly.Then he asked if there was anything else he could do.“Would you please hold my hand？”asked the soldier.“It will help to see me through to the end.”
