3．It may seem as if Mother's Day was invented by a company named Hallmark，but people have been taking time on the calendar to give a shout-out to Mom for a long time．The Greeks and Romans had mother goddess festivals - although their celebrations didn't involve the menfolk taking their underappreciated mothers out to dinner．A more recent tradition was Mothering Sunday，which developed in the British Isles during the 16th century．On the fourth Sunday in April，young men and women who were living and working apart from their families were advised to return to their mothers' houses．
Mother's Day as it is observed in the United States started in the 1850s with Ann Jarvis，a West Virginia woman who held "Mothers' Work Days" to promote health and hygiene（衛(wèi)生） at home and in the workplace．During the Civil War，Jarvis organized women to improve sanitary conditions for soldiers on both sides，and after the war she became a peacemaker，furthering the cause by bringing together mothers of Union and Confederate soldiers and promoting a Mother's Day holiday．
Jarvis's work inspired another 19th-century woman，Julia Ward Howe．In 1870 Howe published her "Mother's Day Proclamation"，which envisioned the day not as appreciation of mothers by their children but as an opportunity for women to exercise their collective power for peace．Howe started holding annual Mother's Day celebrations in Boston，her hometown，but after about a decade she stopped footing the bill and the tradition faded away．
It was Jarvis's daughter Anna who succeeded in getting Mother's Day recognized as a national holiday．After her mother died，in May 1905，Anna started holding yearly ceremony on the anniversary and conducting a tireless PR campaign to have the day made a holiday．In 1908 she succeeded in enlisting the support of John Wanamaker，the Philadelphia department store magnate and advertising pioneer，and by 1912 West Virginia and a few other states had adopted Mother's Day．Two years later，President Woodrow Wilson signed a resolution declaring the second Sunday in May a national holiday．
It wasn't long，though，before whatever ideals the day was supposed to celebrate were buried under an amount of greeting cards and candy．By the 1920s Anna Jarvis was campaigning against the holiday she had been instrumental in creating． "I wanted it to be a day of emotionalism，not profit，" she said．
（1）The first paragraph suggests that．
A．mothers didn't get enough appreciation
B．Mother's Day was invented by Hallmark
C．young people returned to their mothers' houses
D．Greeks and Romans were the first to celebrate Mother's Day
（2）Who plays the most important role in creating Mother's Day？
A．Ann Jarvis．
B．Julia Ward Howe．
C．Woodrow Wilson．
D．Anna Jarvis．
（3）Why did Anna Jarvis object to Mother's Day at last？
A．Because it was an emotional day．
B．Because the festival was not profitable．
C．Because the celebrations went against the original spirit．
D．Because the day was buried under greeting cards and candy．
（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？
A．The Objection to Mother's Day
B．The Argument on Celebrating Mother's Day
C．The Story Behind the Creation of Mother's Day
D．Different Form of Celebrations on Mother's Day組卷：21引用：2難度：0.6

A little girl whose parents had died lived with her grandmother and slept in an upstairs bedroom.
One night there was a fire in the house and the grandmother died while trying to rescue the child.The fire spread quickly，and the situation was terrible.
Neighbors called the fire department，and then stood helplessly by，unable to enter the house because flames blocked all the entrances.The little girl appeared at an upstairs window，crying for help，just as word spread among the crowd that the firefighters would be delayed a few minutes because they were all at another fire site.
Suddenly，a man appeared with a ladder，put it up against the side of the house and disappeared inside.When he reappeared，he had the little girl in his arms.He delivered the child to the waiting arms below，and then disappeared into the night.
An investigation revealed that the child had no living relatives，and weeks later a meeting was held in the town hall to determine who would take the child into their home and bring her up.
A teacher said she would like to raise the child.She pointed out that she could ensure her a good education.A farmer offered her a sheltered upbringing on his farm.He pointed out that living on a farm was healthy and satisfying.Others spoke，giving their reasons why it was to the child's advantage to live with them.
Finally，the town's richest resident rose and said，"I can give this child all the advantages that you have mentioned here，plus money and everything that money can buy."
Throughout all this，the child remained silent，her eyes on the floor.
"Does anyone else want to speak？" asked the meeting chairman.A man came forward from the back of the hall.He walked slowly and appeared to be in pain.
注意：
Paragraph 1：
When he got to the front of the room，he stood directly in front of the little girl and held out his arms.________.
Paragraph 2：
When asked about her choice，the girl gave people the reasons firmly.________.組卷：2引用：4難度：0.7
