Mother's Day
Mother's Day is a holiday for mothers. On this day, mothers don't go to work. It is on the second Sunday in May. It is celebrated (庆祝)in the United States, England, Sweden, India, Mexico and some other countries. On that day, many people give presents to their mothers. If their mothers are still living, they often wear a pink or red rose or carnation(康乃馨). If their mothers are dead (死亡的), they wear a white one. The idea of a day for mothers was first given by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia. As a result of her hard work, the celebration of the first American Mother's Day was held in Philadelphia (费城)on May 10, 1908. Soon the holiday became popular all over the country and around the world.
