  Tommy Green Follow… Hey，guys!I'm going abroad!!This summer holiday，I'm gonna spend a week in Beijing with my family.But Beijing is a fresh new city to me.All I know is that it's the capital of China and the Olympics were held in this modern but also traditional city in 2008.So do you have any good advice on my journey，like hotels to stay，places to visit or things to know？Many thanks!

  Lovely Kim Wow!Good for you，man!I went to Beijing two years ago.It's the most historical and beautiful city that I've ever seen.I still remember I stayed in Shichahai Shadow Art Performance Hotel at that time.The hotel is amazing with rooms mixing the shadow art and Chinese classical elements.You're sure to learn something about Chinese opera culture with the help of the friendly Chinese people.

  Fiberman Hi，man!Now I am at the Southern Gong and Drum Lane in Beijing!It is one of the oldest streets where you can enjoy most traditional food in the restaurants，the best cheese in Wenyu Cheese shop，the sweetest rose cake at Miss Hat's Cake，and my favorite mustard roasted wings at Guiwei.Check out my photos!

  Jason Charles Hi there!I'm Jason，an exchange student in China.If you've got the chance to come here，a visit to the Great Wall must be on top of your to-do list.With a length of more than 5，000 kilometers，the Wall was built by ancient Chinese people over 2，000 years ago.I bet you will be shocked by the great view when you stand on it and look far into the distance.Have a try!

• 3．In 1909，Sonora Smart Dodd was listening to a Mother's Day sermon at her local church when she had the idea of setting a similar day to honor the hard-working fathers of the community.Dodd was the daughter of a Civil War soldier named William Jackson Smart，who raised six children on his own after his wife died during the childbirth.
     She contacted local church groups，government officials，and businesses，hoping to call on the community to honor fathers around the state of Washington.Several other people across the nation had similar ideas throughout the years，but Mrs.Dodd is believed to be the first one to popularize it，starting events that made Father's Day a U.S.national holiday.
     While Father's Day always takes place on the third Sunday of June now，that date was actually a compromise*after the first date turned out to be unrealistic*.Dodd's goal was for the holiday to be on June 5，which was also her father's birthday，but when the local churches asked for more time to prepare for all the festivals during that period，it was moved to the third Sunday in June.Officially，the first Father's Day celebration took place on June 19，1910.
     The first Father's Day included a church service where daughters would hand red roses to their fathers as a general process.The roses were also stuck onto the clothing of the children to further honor their fathers – a red rose for a still living father and a white rose for those who had passed away.Dodd also brought roses and gifts to any father in the community who was unable to make it to the service.This gave birth to the tradition of buying roses as specific flowers of Father's Day in the twentieth century.
     But now it is nearly jye.aigotten.For most young people today，Father's Day means buying and sending greeting cards to their fajye.airs.The holiday is the fourth most popular day for exchanging cards，with about 72 million flying off shelves every year.
     It's difficult to think of how to praise or thank fathers on the card while mothers always receive many kind words.Actually，a father is someone you need to look up to no matter how tall you grow.
  
  （1）Sonora's father was a man who

  .
  A．served in a local church
  B．raised children with his wife
  C．returned from the Civil War
  D．worked hard in a community
  （2）When was the first date for Father's Day？

  
  A．On June 3.
  B．On June 5.
  C．On June 15.
  D．On June 19.
  （3）What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refer to？

  
  A．Giving roses to fathers.
  B．Sending cards to fathers.
  C．Saying kind words to fathers.
  D．Singing the Father's Day sermon.
  （4）What can we learn from the passage？

  
  A．People wore some roses to show respect to their fathers.
  B．People used to send cards more than giving greeting cards.
  C．The idea of setting Father's Day was first brought up by Sonora.
  D．Sonora worked hard to make Father's Day popular all over the world.
