5/7 Tues.
Johnson, our new music teacher, taught us “Mother”, a beautiful song about our love for mothers. And Miss Alice told us the story of Mother’s Day. The idea of a day for mothers was first given by Miss Anna of Philadelphia（费城）. As a result of her hard work, the celebration of the first American Mother’s Day was held in Philadelphia on May 10, 1908. Soon the holiday became popular all over the country and around the world.

We practiced “Mother” today. We prepared some songs and games to show our love to our mothers. This was going to be a special present for our parents on Friday.

In America, when people say“man's best friend”, they don't mean another person. Instead, they are talking about a lovely animal—a dog! These words show the friendship(友谊) between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give joy to people's lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to be the“eyes”for a blind person (盲人) or“ears”for a deaf(耳聋) person. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier, too. Because of that, they bring animals into hospitals for“visits”.
Americans hold“Be Kind to Animals Week”in the first week of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you don't live in America, you, too, can do this. How? First think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food.
