学好英语的方法：

1、学英语和读书一样，讲究的是在零碎时间里见缝插针。在地铁上，排队等餐时等等，都可以记一记单词。关于记单词的方法实在是太多了，选择适合自己的就好了，我自己是比较喜欢在阅读中记忆单词和自己制作单词卡片方便记忆。

2、很多人觉得语法应该是比较难学的。其实英语里面的主要语法是相对简单的，如果没有老师教你，你可以自己买一本语法书攻克一下。

3、从最简单的英文原版小说读起，通过阅读来培养语感。比如：哈利波特、神奇动物在哪里、夏洛的网、月亮与六便士等等，它们的单词、语言和叙述方式都是“入门级”的，容易上手。最好能做到每天都读几页至几十页。

B. 父亲节和母亲节的介绍 要英文

History of Mother’s Day

In the U.S. Mothers' Day is a holiday celebrated on second Sunday in May. It is a day when children honor their mothers with cards, gifts, and flowers. First observance in Philadelphia, Pa. in 1907, it is based on suggestions by Julia Ward Howe in 1872 and by Anna Jarvis in 1907.

Although it wasn't celebrated in the U.S. until 1907, there were days honoring mothers even in the days of ancient Greece. In those days, however, it was Rhea, the Mother of the gods that was given honor.

Later, in the 1600's, in England there was an annual observance called "Mothering Sunday." It was celebrated ring June, on the fourth Sunday. On Mothering Sunday, the servants, who generally lived with their employers, were encouraged to return home and honor their mothers. It was traditional for them to bring a special cake along to celebrate the occasion.

In the U.S., in 1907 Anna Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a campaign to establish a national Mother's Day. Jarvis persuaded her mother's church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate Mother's Day on the second anniversary of her mother's death, the 2nd Sunday of May. The next year Mother's Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia.

Jarvis and others began a letter-writing campaign to ministers, businessmen, and politicians in their quest to establish a national Mother's Day. They were successful. President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement proclaiming Mother's Day a national observance that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.

Many other countries of the world celebrate their own Mother's Day at different times throughout the year. Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday in May, as in the U.S.

在美国,人们在五月的第二个星期天庆祝母亲节。在这一天，孩子们把卡片，礼物和鲜花献给他们的母亲。第一次庆祝母亲节是发生在1907 年的费城，是由朱莉娅·瓦德·豪和安妮塔·贾威斯分别在 1872 年和 1907 年提议设立的。

虽然美国直到 1907 年才庆祝母亲节，但是尊敬母亲的节日甚至可以追溯到古希腊。尽管那时人们是庆祝上帝的母亲罗伊的。

后来, 在17世纪初的英格兰，人们有一个惯例，就是在每年六月的第四个星期天庆祝“省亲节”。在省亲节那一天, 通常与雇主住在一起的仆人了, 被劝说回家和他们的母亲团聚。按照惯例，他们要带一块特殊的蛋糕回家庆祝。

在美国, 1907年有一个来自费城的叫阿纳·贾维斯的人，发起了一场建立全国的母亲节的运动。在西弗吉尼亚的格拉夫顿，贾维斯说服了她母亲的教堂，在她母亲去世2周年的纪念日那一天庆祝母亲节，即五月的第二个星期天。下一年费城也庆祝了母亲节。

贾维斯和其它人开始给部长，商人，以及政治家们写信，要求建立全国性的母亲节。他们取得了成功。1914年在任的伍德罗·威尔森总统，向全国发布官方通告，宣布在每年五月的第二个星期天庆祝母亲节，并使之成为一种传统。

世界上许多其它国家在全年的不同时间庆祝他们自己的母亲节。丹麦，芬兰，意大利，土耳其，澳大利亚，以及比利时同美国一样，在五月的第二个星期天庆祝母亲节 History of Father’s Day
Sonora Dodd, of Washington, first had the idea of a "father's day." She thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909.

Sonora wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart, who was a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state.

After Sonora became an alt she realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, selfless, and loving man. Sonora's father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.

President Calvin Coolidge, in 1924, supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Then in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day. President Richard Nixon signed the law which finally made it permanent in 1972.

Quotes about dad

"A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is a woman he turns her back again." -- Enid Bagnold

"None of you can ever be proud enough of being the child of SUCH a Father who has not his equal in this world-so great, so good, so faultless. Try, all of you, to follow in his footsteps and don't be discouraged, for to be really in everything like him none of you, I am sure, will ever be. Try, therefore, to be like him in some points, and you will have acquired a great deal." -- Victoria, Queen of England

"That is the thankless position of the father in the family-the provider for all, and the enemy of all." -- J. August Strindberg

"It is a wise father that knows his own child." -- William Shakespeare

"One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters." -- English Proverb

"To be a successful father . . . there's one absolute rule: when you have a kid, don't look at it for the first two years." -- Ernest Hemingway

"I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection." -- Sigmund Freud

1909年，华盛顿一位叫布鲁斯．多德的夫人，在庆贺母亲节的时候突然产生了一个念头：既然有母亲节，为什么不能有个父亲节呢？ 多德夫人和他的5个弟弟早年丧母，他们由慈爱的父亲一手抚养大的。许多年过去了，姐弟6人每逢父亲的生辰忌日，总会回想起父亲含辛茹苦养家的情景。在拉斯马斯博士的支持下，她提笔给州政府写了一封言辞恳切的信，呼吁建立父亲节，并建议将节日定在6月5日
她父亲生日这天。州政府采纳了她的建议，仓促间将父亲节定为19日，即1909年6月第3个星期日。翌年，多德夫人所在的斯坡堪市正式庆祝这一节日，市长宣布了父亲节的文告，定这天为全州纪念日。以后，其他州也庆贺父亲节。在父亲节这天，人们选择特定的鲜花来表示对父亲的敬意。人们采纳了多德夫人伯建议，佩戴红玫瑰向健在的父亲们表示爱戴，佩戴白玫瑰对故去的父亲表示悼念。后来在温哥华，人们选择了佩戴白丁香，宾夕法尼亚人用蒲公英向父亲表示致意。 为了使父亲节规范化，各方面强烈呼吁议会承认这个节日。1972年，尼克松总统正式签署了建立父亲节的议会决议。这个节日终于以法律的形式确定了下来，并一直沿用至今。

第一节：阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A(words:296&230)

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict(迷),” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled(皱的).” Today David wears casual clothes — khaki pants and a sports shirt — to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”

More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s,many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday).This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing,” said business adviser Maisly Jones.?

Why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more proctive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”

I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.

Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed(解散). As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized(强调) the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating(欺骗) themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously(认真地) about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.

Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was ing answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued(继续) to believe that I had cheated on the test.
