It’s interesting to know how different cultures and traditions catch the spirit of this special day. To know about traditions followed in different countries, go through the following lines.
Mother’s Day Tradition in the United States
In the United States, Mother’ s Day is a national holiday and celebrated on the second Sunday of May. History of Mother's Day is more than a hundred years old in the US. It was after a long struggle by a loving daughter Anna Jarvis that Mother’s Day was declared a national holiday by the US government. On this day, children offer beautiful flowers and gifts to their mothers. Carnations are considered traditional Mother’s Day flowers. Red carnations are symbol of love and affection. White carnations are worn on this day in memory of those mothers who are no longer living.
Mother’s Day Tradition in France
The French celebrate Mother’s Day on the last Sunday in the month of May. Traditionally, a French mother is honored with a cake, which resembles a bunch of flowers. This is followed by a traditional family dinner.
Mother’s Day Tradition in Spain
Unlike France and the United States, Mother's Day is celebrated on December 8 in Spain. Mother’s Day in Spain has more of a religious significance. To make this day special to their mothers, children buy chocolates, flowers and cards for them.
Mother’s Day Tradition in Mexico

【推荐1】About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.
We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in "snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.
The next scene was a complete contrast. The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen. An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!
Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film ”Stars”!
1. Who is the author?A.A cameraman. | B.A film actor. |
C.A crowd-scene actor. | D.A workman for scene setting. |

D.The way the next scene was filmed was unusual. |
A.A new scene would be filmed. | B.More stars would act in the film. |

Sagrada Familia
This church located in Barcelona, Spain is a UNESCO World Heritage Site(世界文化遗址). It is a Roman Catholic Church planned by architect Antoni Gaudi and its construction began in 1882.

【推荐2】Winter Solstice Celebrations From Around the World
The winter solstice (冬至), the longest night of the year, falls on December 21 or 22 in the Northern Hemisphere and June 20 or 21 in the Southern. Since ancient times, people all over the world have recognized this important occurrence and celebrated the following “return” of the Sun in a variety of different ways. Old solstice traditions have influenced holidays we celebrate now, such as Christmas and Hanukkah. Here are some solstice traditions both new and old to help light your way to longer days.
Soyal
Soyal is the winter solstice celebration of the Hopi Indians of northern Arizona. Ceremonies include purification, dancing, and sometimes gift-giving. At the time of the solstice, Hopi welcome the kachinas, some protective gods from the mountains. Prayer sticks are crafted and used for various blessings and other ceremonies.
Yalda
The Persian festival Yalda, or Shab-e Yalda is a celebration of the winter solstice in Iran that started in ancient times. It marks the last day of the Persian month of Azar. Yalda is viewed traditionally as the victory of light over dark, and the birthday of the sun god Mithra. Families celebrate together with special foods like nuts and some stay awake all night long to welcome the morning sun.
Midwinter in Antarctica
Even Antarctica gets its share of solstice celebration, thanks to the researchers staying there over the long, dangerously cold season. While those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are enjoying the most daylight hours, in the Southern Hemisphere they are celebrating Midwinter.
