Script: The earliest Mothers Day celebrations can be traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea, the Mother of the Gods. During the 1600s, England celebrated a day called Mothering Sunday, celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent. Mothering Sunday honored the mothers of England. During that time many of the Englands poor worked as servants for the wealthy. As most jobs were located far from their homes, the servants would live at the houses of their employers. On Mothering Sunday the servants would have the day off and were encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along to provide a festive touch. People began honoring their mothers as well as the church. All across the world, more than 46 countries honor mothers with a special day, but not all nations celebrate on the same day. We honor mothers with cards, candy, flowers and dinner out. 15.

Script: On Mothering Sunday, what did the servants bring back to their mothers? 正确答案： B Passage Three Questions 18 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard. Script: Parents who have more than two children should be charged a lifelong climate change tax to offset the effect of their extra greenhouse gas emissions, an Australian medical expert has proposed. They should pay 5,000 dollars (4,400 US dollars) a head for each extra child and up to 800 dollars every year thereafter, according to the plan published in the Medical Journal of Australia. In contrast, contraceptives and sterilization procedures would be eligible for carbon credits, suggested Professor Barry Walters at the King Edward Memorial Hospital in Perth. Every family choosing to have more than a defined number of children should be charged a carbon tax that would fund the planting of enough trees to offset the carbon cost generated by a new human being, he wrote. Walters made his proposal in a letter in which he criticized the governments payment of a 4,000-dollar baby bonus in a bid to boost the birth rate in this sparsely populated country of 21 million people. Paying parents extra for every baby fuelled more emissions and contributed to global warming, he said, adding that the bonus should be replaced with a baby levy in line with the polluter pays principle. And Professor Garry Egger, director of the New South Wales Centre for Health Promotion and Research, agreed. Population remains crucial to all environmental considerations, he said. The debate (around population control) needs to be reopened as part of a second ecological revolution. 18. A) 5,000 dollars. B) 5,000 dollars and up to 800 dollars every year thereafter. C) 5,800 dollars every year. D) 800 dollars every year. Script: According to the proposal, how much carbon tax should the parents pay if they have three children? 正确答案： B 19. A) 5,000 dollars. B) 1,400 dollars. C) 4,000 dollars. D) 800 dollars a year. Script: How much money does the government of Australia pay for a baby bonus? 正确答案： C 20. A) To push the economy of the country. B) To INCREASE the birth rate. C) To make the country more sparsely populated D) To reduce global warming. Script: Why does the government provide the baby bonus? 正确答案： B Section C Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks with the exact words you have just heard. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written. How can gratitude help us in our everyday lives as moms?
