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（子女的）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 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 forget-me-nots（勿每我）to express love. Carnations are considered as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world, but few know that China has its own flower 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.26 .

What does the passage mainly talk about?AWhat daily expressions British people often use.BHow people in Britain keep in touch with foreigners.CThe different meanings of “sorry” in and out of Britain.DWhy British people say sorry many times every day.32 .

There may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.First, they fail to express themselves clearly because of a limited(有限的)vocabulary. The useful way is to enlarge their vocabulary. However, you can still communicate with others with a limited vocabulary, if you are active. Others will understand you with the help of your body language.Second, they are worried about making mistakes. Because they are shy and nervous, sometimes they may make mistakes easily. Yet we should know what we aim at is FLUENTCE(流利) not ACCURACY(精确) when speaking. So we should speak as quickly and well as we can, even though sometimes we may use a wrong word or tense(时态), but it doesnt matter because others will still understand you.The third reason is that they dont pay enough attention to listening to what others are saying. So while you are speaking, you cant find the suitable topic or words to say. You have one mouth but two ears! What you hear is necessary for you to start speaking.Fourth, most Chinese students are passive(被动的) language learners. They just sit there waiting for speaking chances, and dont actively look for chances to improve their spoken English. All they can get is to accept the fact that their English remains poor.“Practice makes perfect. So please be active from now on, try to catch every chance to speak wherever you go.USE IT or LOST IT? It is up to you.Problems with Spoken English79 . of the problemsWays to improve your spoken EnglishHaving a limited vocabularyYou have to enlarge the80 . .Try to be active and81 . the body language to help.82 . about making mistakesIt is83 . for you to make mistakes because of shyness and nervousness.
