母亲节
Mother"s Day was first suggested in the United States in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe as a day dedicated to peace. A campaign to establish a National Mother"s Day was begun in 1907. It was successful, by 1911 Mother"s Day was celebrated in almost every state in recognition of[1] the influence mothers have in the making of better citizens.
In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed that the birthday of Mrs. Anna Reeves Jarvis, the "mother of Mother"s Day[2] ", would become the National Mother"s Day of the United States. And that from then on, the second Sunday in May would be Mother"s Day in memory of the work Mrs. Jarvis had done to bring families together after the Civil war, her work to bring the whole North and South together, her work to honor all the mothers of America throughout history and on into the future, but most of all to honor Mrs. Anna Reeves Jarvis as America"s National Mother. President Wilson asked that the American people fly the United States flag from public buildings and homes on that day as he said, as a public expression of our love and reverence[3] for the mothers of our country.
Well, what value is Mother"s Day now? As the Congress said in 1914, it reminds people of[4] the influence mothers have had in the making of better citizens. Jarvis was one such mother. On Mother"s Day much attention is given to the important part that each mother plays in giving her children a sense of what is right and what is wrong, what is good behavior and what is bad.
If the observances[5] of Mother"s Day can even in a small way remind mothers of this, then this day will help both the families and the whole country.
圣诞节
Origin of Christmas The name Christmas is short for "Christ's Mass". A Mass is a kind of Church service. Christmas is a religious festival. It is the day we celebrate as the birthday of Jesus. There are special Christmas services in Christian churches all over the world. But many of the festivities of Christmas do not have anything to do with religion. Exchanging gifts and sending Christmas cards are the modern ways of celebrating the Christmas in the orld. The birth of Jesus had a story: In Nazareth, a city of Galilee. The virgin's name was Mary was betrothed to Joseph. Before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband was minded to put her away secretly. While he thought about these things, Gabriel, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and told him did not be afraid to take Mary as wife. And Mary will bring forth a Son, and he shall call his name, Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. Before Jesus births, Joseph and Mary came to Quintus was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. Joseph also went up out of Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and of the lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. And that, Christmas is the feast of the nativity of Jesus, is on 25th, December every year. But nobody know the actual birthday of Jesus. And the Christmas has become popular when Christmas cards appeared in 1846 and the concept of a jolly Santa Claus was first made popular in nineteenth Century.
复活节
Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is the most important feast in the Christian calendar. The churches are filled with worshipers, the altars are decorated with flowers, and the music proclaims the joy of the season.
Easter Sunday falls sometime between March 22 and April 25. It falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following March 21. The date of Easter Sunday was established by the church council of Nicaea in A.D. 325.
Easter Sunday ends a period of preparation for the feast of Easter. This 40-day period of prayer and fasting, called Lent, begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday, the day before Easter. The week from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday is known as Holy Week. Good Friday marks Christ's crucifixion; and Easter Sunday, his resurrection.
The custom of a sunrise service on Easter Sunday can be traced to ancient spring festivals that celebrated the rising sun. The custom developed further in the Middle Ages, when celebrations at sunrise were also popular. People gathered to pray as the sun appeared and then went in procession to their churches.
The new clothes worn on Easter Sunday are a symbol of new life. The custom comes from the baptism on Easter Sunday of early Christians who were led into church wearing new robes of white linen. The present-day Easter parade has a parallel in the Middle Ages, when people walked about the country-side on Easter, stopping along the way to pray. Nowadays many people walk in Easter parades to show and see new spring clothes, especially hats.

The Dragonboat Festival(龙舟节)
The Dragonboat Festival takes place on the fifth day of lunar[lju:nE] month, usually around the summar solstice. It probably started as a festival to celebrate the planting of the rice crop and to pray for a good rainfall. Long ago, people believed that dragons controlled rivers and rain. They put offerings in the rivers so that the dragons would bring rain for crops.
The highlight of the festival today is the dragonboat race.dragonboats are long, narrow boats with a carved dragon's head at one end and a tail at the other. Up to 80 rovers paddle together. A coxswain sits in the front of the boat and shouts directions and sets the pace for the rowers using a large drum. The races are very noisy and exciting. Teams try to trick each other into making a wrong move.Teams often come to blows with each other.
译文:
农历五月初五是中国传统节日龙舟节,大致在夏至前后。这个节日很可能起源于人们庆祝水稻的种植和祈求降雨。以前,人们都相信龙控制着河流和降雨。他们把祭品放进河里,以求龙为他们的庄稼降下甘霖。
现在,这个节日中最精彩的节目就是赛龙舟了。龙舟又细又长,一头有一个精雕细凿的龙头,另一头是龙尾。一条船能由80个水手来划。船长坐在船头指挥方向,并击打大鼓来控制划船的节奏。龙舟赛总是喊声震天,激动人心。比赛团队都试图诱使对方偏离航向。队伍之间还常常打斗起来。

9. 高中英语阅读理解
要想做好阅读理解题,首先你课本上的词汇应该掌握,接下来你还要掌握这种题型的解题技巧内:先不要上来就容急着去读文章,应该先仔细看每篇文章后面的问题,甚至用笔把问题的主要部分划上横线,这样你对文章的大致内容就有了个大概的把握。然后你再去读文章。当你遇到题目上划过的内容时,也要用笔相应在下面做上标记。阅读遇到不认识的词汇时暂时跳过去,不要让其妨碍你阅读。有时候根据上下文的语境也会猜出生词的大概意思来的。
如果题目下的选项说得特别绝对,那肯定是错的,要填(F)的。
西方人的思维方式与我们迥异,这就决定了他们写文章的方式和思路。一般来说,他们要么上来就先表明论点,然后在逐条说明举例;要么就先罗列出现象,最后再得出结论。因此,要注意每段文章的头一句和结尾句,这往往就是该段的中心内容。因此,西方人的文体一般是“总——分”式,或者“分——总”式。
建议你到书店去买一本阅读理解专项练习,回家抽时间认证做,核对完答案后要仔细分析出错的原因。对每次做过的阅读理解题都要标注上正确率。经过一段时间的练习后。相信你会获得很大的提高的。
