     Mother's Day and Father's Day are two big national. holidays in many western countries. And it's
interesting because they are not the same in every country. In England, Mothering Sunday is in March.
In America and Germany and other countries, it's one Sunday in May. Father's Day is in the middle of
June. How do you celebrate Mother's Day and Father's Day? Let's learn something more about it from
the following introduction.
        In England, we call Mother's Day Mothering Sunday, because it's always on a
Sunday. I don't really know the origin of it but I remember that my mother had a
cup of tea early in the morning. And then we would go to church. And at the end
of the church service, the children would collect a daffodil (水仙花) and take it
back and give it to our mother who would normally be sitting in the service in the
church. And really that's all we did to celebrate the day.
          As Ann said, I remember taking cups of tea to my mother. The idea in general is
that the washing-up would be done; perhaps some cooking would be done on Mother's
Day. We would try to relieve her of all those jobs to make it a special day for her, so
that whenever she looked around, there was something to eat, something to drink, or
something to read, or something interesting for her to do.

This was not going to be a Mother’s Day as before. A lot of things had changed in the last few months. Usually we would give Mom flowers and take her out for a big meal. We couldn’t afford it this year.

Since I was born, Mom had been able to stay at home with me. We always had enough money to go out to eat two or three times a week if I had behaved well.

All that changed in January.

I could tell that Dad was getting a little angry. Mom would tell me to be quiet and let him rest at night. He’d work later and later.

Beginning in February, Dad tried hard to find another job. But it wasn’t easy for him to find something at the level he used to. He could not bring in as much money. That’s when he asked my mom to go back to work.

After a couple of weeks, Mom found a full-time job at a bank. The pay would be a big help to the family, but now Mom would not be around as much. I didn’t like it. I now had to stay in the after-school care program instead of going home and playing in my neighborhood. Too bad was, as soon as I did get home, I had to help get dinner ready, because Mom wouldn’t get home until after 6:00. I really missed the past time.

a)        This was not going to be a Mother’s Day as before because the writer’s father wasn’t in

b)       The writer’s home used to be rich. 

c)        His family changed because his father was mad.

d)       In February, the writer’s mother started to work at a bank.

e)        The writer really wanted his mother to stay with him
