People thank their parents with two days, Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are to show love for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be good people. They give them love and care.
The two days are celebrated(庆祝) in many different ways. On Mother’s Day, people wear carnations. Wearing a red one means having a living mother, while a white one shows that the mother is dead. It’s also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at homes as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues(烧烤聚会) for Father’ s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings.
Another tradition(传统) is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued(宝贵的) than those bought in shops. It’s not the value of the gift that is important, but the love for the parents. Card shops, florists, candy makers, phone companies and other shops do lots of business during these holidays.
What do you know about "carnation"?
选项
A、It only has two kinds of colors.
B、It refers to the clothes people wear on Mother’s Day.
C、It’s a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.
答案
C
解析
题目是要我们推测“carnation”的含义。从文章第二段“On Mother’s Day, people wear carnations. Wearing a red one means having a living mother, while a white one shows that the mother is dead.”可以看出来carnation应该是一种花,而且是在母亲节佩戴表示特殊意义的花。选项A文章没有提到它就只有两种颜色。由此可以见,本题的正确答案应为C。
