It was Mother’s Day. John was so busy with his work that he couldn’t go back home. When he walked by a flower shop in the evening, an idea came to his mind. “I’ll send Mum some roses (玫瑰).”
While John was picking his flowers, a young man went inside. “How many roses can I get for only five dollars, Madam?” he asked. The shop assistant told him that roses were as expensive as forty dollars a dozen (一打). Maybe he would be happy with carnations(康乃馨). She told him they were a lot cheaper than roses.
“No, I have to have red roses,” he said, “My mum was badly ill last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special, it has to be roses, as the rose is her favorite.”
After hearing this, John said he would pay the rest of the money for the young man. Moved by both of them, the shop assistant said, “Well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you two.” Taking the roses, the young man almost jumped into the air.

Then John paid for his dozen of roses and told the shop assistant to send them to his mother.

Father’s Day has a very short history. It started because there was a Mother’s Day, and just because some Americans thought that if we had a Mother’s Day, we should also have a Father’s Day. Father’s Day has become important in North America. And businesses(商人) found it was a good way to get people to buy a present for their fathers, a present from their shops.
By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though(虽然) some have a Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will also become popular before long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day? The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should do --- buy, buy, buy, buy, buy a Father’s Day present for your father. They even tell a wife to buy, buy, buy, and buy a Father’s Day present --- not for her father but for her husband, even if(即使) he is not yet a father. And they tell grandchildren to buy, buy, buy and buy a Father’s Day present for their grandfathers.
The important thing to remember about Father’s Day is that American children can show their love to their fathers in a more open way.
阅读短文,判断正误,正确的用“T”,错误的用“F”:
1.Father’s Day started just because businesses wanted to get a lot of money.
2. The word “special” in the second paragraph means “not usual”.
3. In America, people have a Father’s Day to show their love for their fathers.
4. On Father’s Day, businesses always want people to buy as many as presents.
5.It can be learned from the passage that Father’s Day will become more important than Mother’s Day.
