【题目】Father’s Day has a very short history. It was started because there was a mother’s Day, and just because some Americans thought that if we had a Mother’s Day, we should also have a Father’s Day. Father’s Day has become important in North America. And businessmen found it was a good way to get people to buy a present for the fathers from their shops.

By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though some have Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day? The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should buy Father’s Day presents for their fathers. They even tell a wife to buy a Father’s Day present----not for her father but for her husband, even if(即使) he is not a father. And they tell grandchildren to buy a present for their grandfathers.

【题目】用所给词的正确形式填空

Do you know what a resolution is? It’ a kind of promise. Most of the time, we make promises to other people. (“Mom, I promise I’m going to tidy my room when I get back from school.”) However, promises you make to yourself are 【1】 (resolution), and the 2 (common) kind is New Year’s resolutions. The start of the year is often a time for making resolutions. When we make resolutions at the 3 (begin) of the year, we hope that we are going to improve our 4 (life). Some people write down 5 (they) resolutions and plans for the coming year. This helps them to remember their resolutions. 6 (other) tell their family and friends about their wishes and plans.

There are different kinds of resolutions. Some are about physical health. For example, some people promise themselves they are going 7】 (start) an exercise program or eat less fast food. Many resolutions have to do with self-improvement. These are about 8 (make) yourself a better person. Some people might say they are going to take up a hobby like painting or taking photos, or 9 (learn) to play the guitar. Some resolutions have to do with better planning, like making a weekly plan for schoolwork. For example, a student may have to find more time to study.

Although there are differences, most resolutions have one thing in common. People hardly ever keep them! There are good reasons for this. Sometimes the resolutions may be too difficult 【10 (keep). Sometimes people just forget about them. For this reason, some people say the best resolution is to have no resolutions! How about you—will you make any next year?
