On the third Sunday of June every year, we admire(欽佩) the person in our lives who taught you how to ride your bike or read a book and who offers helps to the whole family. Yes, I mean dad, daddy, father. Father’s Day is the time to show him thanks for everything he does for you.

Oh! Write me a song of my father. And tell me the reason. You ever write songs about mother. Not a word of dear father you say? These words from C. Henry’s song, Oh! Write Me a Song of My Father, have been written by Sonora Dodd, a young girl who, along with her five younger brothers, was raised by her father.

On a Mother’s Day, Sonora spoke to the government and suggested(建議) her own father’s birthday, of June 5, as the day to thank fathers. The government chose the third Sunday in June instead and the very first Father’s day was celebrated on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington.

It took some time before Father’s Day became the national holiday we know today. At the time, people disagree with the idea of this holiday because they didn’t like the idea that men would get flowers and other gifts. Finally, President Lyndon B. Johnson made the decision(決定) that the third Sunday of June would be Father’s Day.

1.Who do we show our thanks on the third Sunday of June?

A. Fathers B. Mothers C. Teachers D. Children.

2.From the passage, We can learn _________.

A. Sonora Dodd wrote a song for her mother B. the first Father’s Day began in Europe

C. Father’s Day is on Sonora’s dad’s birthday D. the first Father’s Day began in the USA

3.How many children did Sonora Dodd's father have?

Children are amazing! They pick up languages so naturally and easily. Have you ever why? It’s because of the way they learn.

Children learn by doing what comes naturally---they listen, copy, and talk. Let’s take a closer look at how children learn languages. Perhaps we can d1. a better, more natural way to learn English.

Listen as often as possible. When people talk to children, they often use s2. words that children can understand. That’s really important to the children’s language development. In order to learn, children must be able to understand what they hear. If they don’t understand it, it’s just m3. noise. Listen to radio or TV programs that use English at your level. If you r4.that you can’t understand every word or sentence, don’t give up. Just pay attention to what you can understand. And listen as often as you can.

Be a Copycat. Children like to copy their parents, their friends or other r5.. This helps teach them how to pronounce the language. As you listen to English, repeat what you hear as much as p6..

Use English to talk. O7. to those who usually practice grammar rules, some students use language to talk about things they are interested in. This helps them learn to express themselves d8.. They don’t worry about their small vocabulary or poor grammar.

Students should also pay more attention to real c9.. So try your best to communicate by talking with people in English. If you can’t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students i10.. Start an English discussion group and talk about music, movies and so on. Don’t worry about making mistakes. You can learn English better by correcting mistakes.
