In many countries around the world, May 1st is a holiday which is called Labor Day or Workers' Day. It is an interesting holiday that honors working people and their jobs. But do you know how it started?
During the late 1880s, in many parts of the world, people worked for fourteen to sixteen hours a day in factories but made very little money. Later, in the United States and Canada, working people got together to set up unions(工会) . The union leaders asked factory bosses for shorter working time and higher salaries(工资) , but many of the bosses ____▲____.
On May 1st, 1886, men and women in the United States and Canada stopped working and went onto the streets. They walked through cities and towns to force bosses to let them work eight hours a day. In the city of Chicago, several people died in fighting with the police. Over the next few years, people in cities around the world stopped working on May 1st to honor workers everywhere. By the early twentieth century, the first of May became a national holiday in many countries.
However, in the United States and Canada, May 1st is not a holiday. North Americans celebrate Labor Day on the first Monday in September. Today in the
United States, Labor Day is mostly about having fun. People enjoy a long weekend and often celebrate it by having picnics with friends or family. In many parts of the United States, Labor Day is also the last day of summer vacation, and students return to school the next day.

Thanksgiving was just around the corner. The menu had been set. The shopping list was made. Everything seemed perfect. I could taste my favorite food—turkey and mashed potatoes. Pictures of different pies, fruit and vegetables came into my mind. I couldn't wait!
The day before Thanksgiving my dad called a family meeting. He said we needed to practice being thankful. To my surprise, my father said that we were going to help out at a homeless shelter (收容所) on Thanksgiving Day. So we wouldn't cook our own Thanksgiving dinner. The holiday wouldn't be the same. I thought the day would be awful.
The next morning, we got up early. I followed my father to the shelter with my sleepy eyes. I had no great expectations and felt down all the way. As soon as we arrived, we got to work. There was so much to be done. But all I could think about was the dinner I couldn't enjoy.
However, those thoughts soon disappeared. Over the next few hours, I watched hundreds of people come through the shelter. For some, this was the only hot meal they would eat that week. For others, it was the first time to eat a Thanksgiving meal. The shelter was filled with joy.
Through this experience, I learned that Thanksgiving is a time to think about your blessings (祝福) and look for ways to bless others. When I gave up what I had wanted, I discovered how much I had. It was much better to give than to receive. In the end, that Thanksgiving became an unforgettable experience.

D. To tell us the author's experience of Thanksgiving Day.

The traditional Chinese calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. In China, the 24 solar terms were created thousands of years ago to guide agricultural (农业的) production. But solar term culture is still useful today to guide people's lives through cultural activities and special foods that go with each term.
Great Heat, the 12th solar term of the year, began on July 22 and ended on August 7 last year. During Great Heat, most parts of China enter the hottest season of the year. Here is something you should know about Great Heat.
Great Heat is a season of harvesting (收割) . During this time, the sunshine, high temperatures and heavy rainfall are good for the plants. But many natural disasters also happen. So, it's important to harvest and plant in time.
Sending the Great Heat ship is a tradition in Taizhou. The ship is full of all kinds of meat. More than 50 fishermen take turns carrying the ship as they walk through the streets. The ship will finally be pulled out of the port and burned at sea. People believe that is a symbol of good harvests and health.
Great Heat is a season with most crickets (蟋蟀) in the countryside. Cricket fighting is a popular game for some people in China during this period. The custom dates back to over 1, 000 years ago.
People in different places enjoy different food. For example, in southern Shandong, people would like to drink mutton soup. Grass jelly (仙草) is very popular in Guangdong because there is a saying “Eating grass jelly during Great Heat will make you stay young. ”

March 2 is Old Stuff Day(旧物日) . It is all about old stuff. Things you used have been forgotten for ages in your home. You must have some old stuff around. And today is all about enjoying it. Because what's better than finding something really great from days gone by?
It's so easy to forget things you have. If we don't use them every day, some things can be put away and stay there. And that's not just the things in your home—technology grows so quickly, new toys come out all the time and new books keep coming out. In the age of new information, we can have so many things easily. Today is all about remembering the things we sometimes leave behind.
We've learned to value what age can bring to things. Wines, for example, are more valuable and tastier as they grow older. It's certain that old things still have their uses, value or charm. People today will pay a pretty penny for stamps, toys, video games, board games, books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.
You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop. Another person's old stuff could be your new stuff! Or maybe now is a good day to clean up? Old stuff could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always send your old things to a charity shop. If you're free, you could turn your old clothes into new ones with just a little change.
Today could be a good day to visit your older families. You could ask your
grandparents to tell you stories about family history, their childhood and their youth. Learn about what was going on in the world when they were growing up.
Most of all, remember that today's new stuff will one day be old stuff.
() 49. What is Old Stuff Day?
A. A day to throw away old things.
B. A day to follow new technology.
C. A day to get together with families.
D. A day to enjoy and reuse old things.
() 50. What can we know from Paragraph 3?
A. Age brings people new things.
B. People love buying new things.
C. People always clean up old stuff.
D. Old stuff is still valuable and useful.
() 51. Which of the following is a proper way to deal with old stuff?
A. Breaking them into pieces.
B. Sending them to charity shops.
C. Forgetting them in some places.
D. Turning them into waste things.
() 52. What's the author's purpose in writing the text?
