Who first proposed the holiday for workers It’s not entirely clear,but two workers can make a solid claim to the Founder of Labor Day title.
Some records show that in 1882,Peter J.McGuire,general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and a co-founder of the American Federation of Labor,suggested setting aside a day for a “general holiday for the laboring classes”.But many believe that machinist Matthew Maguire,not Peter McGuire,founded the holiday.
The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday,September 5,1882,in New York City,in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union.The Central Labor Union held its second Labor Day holiday just a year later,on September 5,1883.By 1894,23 more states had adopted the holiday,and on June 28,1894,President Grover Cleveland signed a law making the first Monday in September of each year a national holiday.
Many Americans celebrate Labor Day with parades(游行),picnics and parties—festivities very similar to those outlined by the first proposal for a holiday,which suggested that the day should be observed with a street parade to exhibit “the strength and spirits of the trade and labor organizations” of the community,followed by a festival for the recreation and amusement of the workers and their families.This became the pattern for the celebrations of Labor Day.
Speeches by important official men and women were introduced later,as more emphasis was placed upon the economic and civil significance of the holiday.Still later,by a resolution of the American Federation of Labor convention of 1909,the Sunday before Labor Day was adopted as Labor Sunday and dedicated to(致力于) the spiritual and educational aspects of the labor movement.
American labor has raised the nation’s standard of living and contributed to the greatest production the world has ever known and the labor movement has brought us closer to the realization of our traditional ideals of economic and political democracy.
4.What can we know from paragraph 2
A.People’s views about the founder of Labor Day vary.
B.The author considered Matthew Maguire the founder.
C.Peter J.McGuire wanted to set a few days for a holiday.
D.Labor Day was originally set up for American machinists.
5.What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us
A.The real meaning of Labor Day.
B.The development of Labor Day.
C.The reason of setting Labor Day.
D.People’s emphasis on Labor Day.
6.What does the underlined word “festivities” in paragraph 4 mean
A.Manners. B.Approaches.
C.Rewards. D.Celebrations.
7.Which of the following does the author agree with
A.It is known that America develops very fast.
B.The original meaning of Labor Day changes.
C.It is worthwhile to set a day for the laborer.
D.The labor movement makes the life unsteady.
