Father’s Day was first observed in Spokane, Washington, in 1910. Mrs. Dodd first proposed the idea of a "father’s day" in 1906. Mrs. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart, who was widowed when his wife died in childbirth after their sixth child was born. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself. Mrs. Dodd wanted Father’s Day to be celebrated on the first Sunday in June, her father’s birthday. But it wasn’t until 1966 that President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation, declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father’s Day. In 1972, President Richard Nixon established a permanent national ceremony of Father’s Day to be held on the third Sunday of June, coming almost sixty years after Mother’s Day had been proclaimed a national holiday. Today, Father’s Day has become a day to not only honor your father, but all men who act as a father-like figure, such as stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult males.
22. Who first proposed the idea of a "Father’s Day"?
23. When was "Father’s Day" established to be a permanent national day?
24. When is "Father’s Day" celebrated nowadays?
25. For what purpose do we celebrate "Father’s Day" according to the passage?
选项
A、To honor only your father.
B、To honor all fathers around you.
C、To honor father-like figures.
D、To honor Mrs. Dodd’s father.
答案
C
解析
文章最后说,“父亲节到来时,我们不仅要向我们的父亲表示敬意,还要对所有像父亲一样的人,如继父、叔舅、祖父和成年男子等,表示敬意”,可知C(对像父亲一样的人表示敬意)为答案。A“只对自己的父亲表示尊重”、B“对周围的父亲表示尊重”和D“对Mrs.Dodd的父亲表示尊重”与录音内容不符,均应排除。
