In a short time, it becomes widely celebrated. Mother’s Day falls on(适逢) the second Sunday in May. On that day, many people send gifts of love to their mothers. The idea of a day for mother was first given by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia(费城). As a result of her hard work, the celebration of her first American Mother’s Day was held in Philadelphia on May 10th, 1908. Soon the holiday became popular all over the U.S.A. and around the world. In China, people do the same on the day for mothers. And, in some cities, people sometimes ask a song to be broadcast on the radio for his or her mother only. This might cost a little money, but, as it is said, “Love is invaluable(无价的).” ( ) 6. When is Mother’s Day? A. May 10th.B. May 1st.C. May 4th.D. The second Sunday in May. ( ) 7.
