Father’s Day

Father’s Day is a fairly new celebration in the British calendar compared with Mother’s Day,which has been a very popular and well celebrated festival in the UK for a very long time.

Father’s Day was first celebrated by Americans　36　it was inspired by (受启发) the actions of a man named William Smart.He was a veteran (退伍军人) of the US Civil War and his wife　37　away giving birth to their sixth child.He　38　six children alone without remarrying,which was undoubtedly　39　back in those days.

His daughter,Sonora Dodd,　40　when she was an adult what her father had sacrificed for his

　41　.It was in the early 1900s and she was actually　42　one day,listening to a sermon (传教) on

　43　.She thought there should　44　be a Father’s Day celebration.

And so the　45　was born,on the third Sunday every June,close to the anniversary (周年) of Sonora’s father’s death.Britain took the idea of Father’s Day from the American celebration and it has been celebrated　46　since the 1970s.

Father’s Day is never quite such a big commercial event　47　Mother’s Day is,probably because it hasn’t been in　48　for so long.But what do British people do for Father’s Day?

Well,most people would buy their fathers a card.The card would probably have a nice message in it　49　what a great Dad their father is.Some people do buy presents as well.

　50　gifts for Dads are probably ties,chocolates or socks because these are things that Dads can　51　use even if they don’t want them.In the run­up (即将来到之际) to Father’s Day,or indeed Mother’s Day,there will be adverts (广告) on TV giving　52　ideas of CDs or gadgets (小玩具,小玩意) we can buy.Card shops will be full of mugs or pens and similar merchandise (商品) with “World’s Greatest Dad”　53　on them.

Some families　54　do things together to celebrate Father’s Day like going for a meal.As a special treat,British people might give their Dad a bit of a rest,　55　him a cup of tea,or even wash his car and mow the lawn (除草) to make him feel really appreciated.
