Mother’s Day 古母亲节起源于希腊，古希腊人在这一天向希腊神 话中的众神之母赫拉致敬。在 17世纪中叶，母亲节流传到 英国，英国人把封斋期的第四个星期天作为母亲节。在这一 天里，出门在外的年青人将回到家中，给他们的母亲带上一 些小礼物。　 现代意义上的母亲节起源于美国，由 Amanm.Jarvis（ 1864－ 1948）发起，她终身未婚，一直陪 伴在她母亲身边，在母亲于 1905年世纪， Amanm 悲痛欲 绝，两年后（ 1907年）， Amanm 和她的朋友开始写信给 有影响的部长、商人、议员来寻求支持，以便让母亲节成为 一个法定的节日。 Amanm 认为子女经常忽视了对母亲的感 情，她希望母亲节能够让人多想一想母亲为家庭所付出的一 切。 　　第一个母亲节于 1908年 5月 10 日在西弗吉尼亚 和宾夕法尼亚州举行，在这次节日里，康乃被选中为献给母 亲的花，并以此流传下来。 1913年，美国国会通过了一份 议案，将每年 5 月的第二个星期天作为法定的母亲节。母亲 节从此流传开来！ 2. What are these pictures about? Good example(榜样 ) 2. Father’s Day 人们在庆祝母亲节的同时，并没有忘记父亲的功绩。 1909年就开始有入建议确定父亲节。据说第一个提出这种建 议的是华盛顿的约翰 ·布鲁斯 ·多德夫人。多德夫人的母亲早 亡，其父独自一人承担起抚养教育孩子的重任，把他们全部 培养成人。 1909年，多德夫人感念父亲养育之恩，准备为他 举行庆祝活动，同时，想到所有的父亲对家庭和社会的贡献 ，于是给当地一家教士协会写信，建议把 6 月的第三个星期 日定为父亲节。该协会将建议提交会员讨论，获得了通过。 1910年 6 月，人们便在此庆祝了第一个父亲节。当时，凡是 父亲已故的人都佩戴一朵白玫瑰，父亲在世的人则佩戴红玫 瑰。这种习俗一直流传至今。但是开始时父亲节的日期各不 相同，而且有的地方用蒲公英作为父亲节的象征，有的地方 则用衬有一片绿叶的白丁香作为父亲节的象征。直到 1934年 6月，美国国会才统一规定 6月的第三个星期日为父亲节。 　　 Step 6 Listen ,answer and read 1.Listen to the tape and answer my questions. 1) What are Kate and Jim talking about? 2) What will Kate give her father on Father’d Day? 3) Why is she going to ask her mother?
