B(福建中考)
Many Chinese people will wonder what presents to get for their moms on Mother's
Day, but not many know Mother's Day is actually a festival from overseas.
Mother's Day originated(起源) in America during the early 20th century. The
festival spread to China as early as the 1980s and was widely accepted.
Why did a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, Chinese traditional
culture has always encouraged filial(孝顺的) devotion to parents. There are many
stories which show filial respect in ancient China. For example, the story of “Taste
Liquid(液体的) Medicine for Mother” tells us the filial virtue(美德) of Emperor
Wen of the Western Han dynasty. His mother had been sick for three years. He often
stayed up by her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the liquid medicine
first before she drank it. Also, mother's love is a repeated subject in Chinese
ancient poems, like “Song of the Parting Son” by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang
dynasty. Now this poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China
are brought up with the education of filial devotion.
On special days, people often use roses or forgetmenots to express love.
Carnations are considered as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world, but
few know that China has its own for mothers—the tiger lily.
Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is
love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is perhaps just a simple
expression of love from their children.
(B)51.When did Mother's Day spread to China?
A.In the 1920s. B.In the 1980s.
C.In the Western Han dynasty. D.In the Tang dynasty.
(D)52.What is the poem of “Song of the Parting Son” mainly about?
A.The filial virtue of Emperor Wen.
B.Caring for the old.
C.Traditional Chinese medicine.
D.A mother's love for her son.
(C)53.Mother's Day is popular in China mainly because of ________.
A.its wide spread in many countries
B.our ancient stories of respecting parents6
C.our traditional cultural values
D.its simple way of expressing love
(D)54.What is regarded as the Chinese own flower for a mother?
(C)55.What a mother truly wants on Mother's Day may be ________.
A.a big dinner B.a celebration party
C.greetings of the festival D.expensive presents
