More and more young people from China begin to celebrate ( 庆祝 ) Father’ s Day. They send fathers presents, or invite them for a nice dinner. But do you know how Father’s Day started?
While Mrs Dodd, from America, was listening to a talk about Mother’ s Day in a church in 1909, she had an idea of having Father’s Day to honor(纪念) her father, William Smart. Mr Smart used to be a soldier. His wife died when she gave birth to her sixth child. Mr Smart had to raise his six children alone. They lived a hard life. After Mrs Dodd grew up, she wanted to thank her father for what he had done for them. She wrote a letter to a church and asked for the third Sunday in June to be Father’ s Day. The church agreed with her.
The first Father’ s Day was celebrated on June 19th, 1910 in Washington. Children made special desserts, and did other things to make their fathers happy. In 1924, President(总统) Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father’ s Day. People all over the country began to celebrate Father’s Day. Finally, in 1966, President Lyndon Johnson made the third Sunday in June Father’s Day.
This year, Father’s Day was on June 17th. What did you do for your father?

“Memorize (记住) these words.” “Learn this spelling rule.” “Don’t forget about the exam tomorrow.” You remember things every day, but how do you do it?
When you want to call a store or an office that you don’t call often, you look in the telephone book for the number. You dial the number, and then you forget it! You use your short-term (短暂的) memory to remember the number. Your short-term memory lasts about half a minute. However, you don’t need to look in the telephone book for your best friend’s number because you already know it. This information is in your long-term memory. Your long-term memory has everything that you remember through the years. The major reason for forgetting something is because you do not learn it well at the beginning. For example, you meet some new people, and right away you forget their names. You hear the names but you do not learn them, so you forget them.
