We’ve been celebrating moms for thousands of years. Yet, the origin of day that belongs to mom actually comes hundreds of years later.
Philadephia,1876. Social activist Ann Jarvis was wishing for someone to honor moms during a Sunday school lesson. Her daughter, Anna Mane, took note.
On May 8 1907, Ann passed away. Anna was sad, but determined to make her mother’s dream come true.
Anna organized the first official celebration of Mother’s Mother Day on May 10 1908. Hundreds attended, but Anna didn’t. Instead, she sent 500 white carnation (康乃馨）flowers to all guests, as well as a letter describing how important the day was. Six years passed and Anna continued her fight for a national holiday.
1914.The U. S. President signed a law officially recognizing Mother’s Day as a national holiday. The first national Mother’s Day was held on May 10, 1914. And with that Anna realized her mother’s wishes. Mother's Day soon spread around the world.
But Big business saw the holiday as a chance for big returns. Anna intended for the day to be celebrated with mothers and families, while wearing white carnations. Soon, however, Mother's Day became combined with flowers, candy, cards and other gifts.
Anna spent her later years feeling angry at the corporate machine that had made money by taking advantage of her mother’s dream. She even tried to get the government to drop the holiday completely.
And by 1948, she was completely against Mother’s Day She died later that year, aged 84. Anna never married, nor did she have any children. All she had was a dream and a wish from her mom.
That dream lives on, though she originally intended, and is still celebrated each year around the world Commercialization(商业化) ruined the dream for Anna ,but we suppose the feeling behind Mother's Day lives on
24.When did Mother’s Day become a national holiday
A. In 1907 B. In 1908 C. In 1914. D. In 1948
25.How should people celebrate Mother's Day according to Anna
A. Give flowers to moms. B. Buy presents for moms.
C. Make wishes for moms. D. Wear white carnations.
26. What does the author think of Mother’s Day
A. It’s worth celebrating B. It’s already out of date
C. It keeps its original meaning. D. Its celebration should be stopped
27. How does the author develop the passage
A. By the order of place B. By the order of time
C. By giving examples D. By raising questions

Do you think studying in a different country sounds very exciting and great fun Do you think you would have lots of desirable fun Certainly , it is a new experience, one that brings the opportunity to discover amazing things and a feeling of freedom. But do remember that there are also some challenges, for your views may disagree with the different beliefs, norm(社会准则), values and traditional countries. This is called “culture shock”. The following are the stages of adjusting.
The first stage is called “the honeymoon”, where you are excited about living in a different place and everything seems to be fantastic. You like everything, and everybody seems to be so nice to you. Also, the amusement of life in a new culture seems as though it will have no ending. Eventually, however, the second stage of culture shock appears, “the hostility stage”. Everything that seemed so wonderful is now awful. Usually you protect yourself against the effects of culture shock.
Next comes the stage, “ recovery” .You start to feel more positive. You recover from the first two stages. Even though the culture is different from your own, you begin to appreciate it.
The last stage is “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good because you are able to understand the new culture.
Obviously, culture shock is not something you can avoid in a foreign country. When you have completely adjusted to a new culture, you can more fully enjoy it. Furthermore, learning about other cultures and how to adjust to the shock of living in them helps you learn more about yourself.
28. Which of the following is a challenge when studying abroad
A. Finding amazing things B. feeling free from school.
C. Disagreement with teacher s D. Different ideas from others.
29. How many stages of adjusting to culture shock does the passage mention
A. Two B. Three C. Four. D. Five.
30.When can a student fit in culture shock ,
A. On reaching abroad B. When you really feel good
C. During the stage of recovery D. When everyone seems nice

A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It’s extraordinary first for what it contains: the news from local crime to international politics ,from sports to business to fashion to science, and the news of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature article and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music.
A newspaper is even more extraordinary for the way one reads it; never completely, never straight through but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, looking at one piece quickly, reading another articles all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next.
A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality, its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also much of what appeals in a newspaper has no more than value that just lasts for a short time. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper; what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper.
For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you change apply the techniques of reading.
32.What may a modem newspaper cover according to the passage
A. Argument between parents. B. Differences between teachers
C. Differences among students. D. Violence against children
33. What does the underlined word “topicality” in the third paragraph refer to
A. Current events B. local people.
C. Immediate actions . D. Lasting value,
34. How do readers deal with newspapers
A. They normally read different newspapers.
B. They usually choose what interest them.
C. They often apply the techniques of reading.
D. They never read the same newspaper.
35. What does the passage mainly talk about
A. What makes a good modern newspaper extraordinary.
B. Why reading newspapers needs skill and self -awareness.
C. How we can read different kinds of newspapers efficiently.
D. How we can get what we want without missing things.

Hi, Lydia. This is Wang Mei. Yesterday you asked me when the best lime to visit China is. I had to pick up my mother from the airport so I wasn't able to answer your question. Now I'll tell you in detail.
I think the best time to visit China is October. I usually travel with my family in October. I went to Xi'an in October last year and Hangzhou in October the year before last year.
The weather in October in China is usually very nice. Most of China in this month has mild temperatures as the summer heat has gone. Besides，the summer rains have left. The major Chinese attractions in Beijing, Xi'an, Shanghai, Guilin, Hong Kong, and Chengdu are all at a comfortable time to visit. However, do avoid the first week of October.
If you have no time in October, you can also come in late spring. I went to Beijing in May this year. The weather was very comfortable there.
In late spring the temperature is about 20 centigrade, except the extreme northwest and northeast. Mountains in Guilin and the Yellow Mountains are really beautiful at this time of the year. Also，it’s not too crowded to travel at this time of the year in China.
I hope I can help you make a better decision. Bye.
