But we were pleasantly surprised when we finally boarded the   18 , which was relatively modern and   19 . During the 14-hour ride we ate peanuts and talked. It was not   20  at all.
It was morning when we arrived. We stepped out of the railway station, having sat in hard seats and not getting much   21 . However, we had energy. First, we tried to get return tickets to Shanghai, but the tickets seller   22  us that tickets would not be on   23  for another two days. We were a little worried about getting   24  , but we made up our minds to   25  for the hotel to put our bags down. After fighting our way   26  the “gypsy” taxi driver who tried to   27  one hundred yuan for the ride, we found another taxi and it   28  cost us thirty yuan to get   29  we had planned to go. When we reached the hotel, there was a window for airplane and train tickets.   30 , the man behind the counter could get tickets that day, which we   31 . The most important lesson about China I ever   32  is to get someone to do your work for you, and it seems to work out much   33 . We were not able to get tickets, but the   34  agents could.
While in Beijing we saw a lot of places of interest, most of which were very   35 . It was fun to be with thousands of people in one place. There aren’t any words to describe it.

I just accepted her appreciation, rather than telling her that I brought extra drinks because I could   41  remember how many kids were in the class. But her   42  taught me an important lesson: I’m not a failure as a mom.
Not everyone is cut out to be a(n)   43  mom. I believe it’s okay to be the juice box mom. I may not bake cookies and decorate them beautifully, but I   44  something to drink. And I think that’s just as   45 .

Once a year we show our love for our fathers by celebrating(慶祝) Father’s Day. This is the time when you have the chance to show your dad how much you love him. On Father’s Day, children usually give gifts to their fathers and take them out for a nice meal. But when and how did Father’s Day get started?
Father’s Day was introduced in the early part of the 20th century. It was to show love for our fathers in the same way that people did to mothers on Mother’s Day. This tradition began in Spokane, Washington, from an idea of a woman named Sonora Smart Dodd.
Mrs Dodd was raised by her father after her mother died. Looking back on all the things that he did for the family made Mrs Dodd realize just how special her father was. She realized that her father was a very loving man who should be honored and praised for all the things that he did for his family. Since her father was born in the month of June, Mrs Dodd decided to celebrate Father’s Day on June 19th, so the first Father’s Day was held in June, 1910.
By the year 1926, a committee (委員會) was formed in New York City to honor Father’s Day, and in 1956, it was recognized as a day of celebration. President Nixon made Father’s Day a national holiday in the year 1972.This is when it was decided that it would always be celebrated on the third Sunday of every June.
1. What is the best title for this passage?
A. The history of Father’s Day.           B. The story of Sonora Smart Dodd.
C. Something about Mother’s Day.      D. How to show your love for your father.
2. According to Paragraph 1, what do children usually do on Father’s Day?
A. Spend the whole day with their fathers.
B. Say aloud that they love their fathers.
C. Cook something nice for their fathers.
D. Prepare gifts for their fathers.
3. We learn that Father’s Day _______.
A. started from a story made up by a woman
B. is celebrated on the first Sunday of every June
C. is surely only celebrated by children in America
D. started from a woman’s wish to honor and praise her father
