Father's Day
Third Sunday in June
6月的第三个星期天
父亲节在美国
The United States is one of the few countries inthe world that has an officialday on which fathers arehonored by their children. On the third Sunday inJune, fathers all across the United States are givenpresents, treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special.
父亲节的来源
The origin of Father's Day is not clear. Some say that it began with a church service in WestVirginia in 1908. Others say the first Father's Day ceremonywas held in Vancouver, Washington.
父亲节的推广
The president of the Chicago branch of the Lions' Club, Harry Meek, is said to havecelebratedthe first Father's Day with his organization in 1915; and the day that they chose wasthe third Sunday in June, the closest date to Meek's own birthday!
Regardlessof when the first true Father's Day occurred, the strongest promoter of theholiday was Mrs. Bruce John Dodd of Spokane, Washington. Mrs. Dodd felt that she had anoutstandingfather. He was a veteran of the Civil War. His wife had died young, and he hadraised six children without their mother.
父亲节的选定
In 1909, Mrs. Dodd approachedher own minister and others in Spokane about having achurch service dedicated to fathers on June 5, her father's birthday. That date was too soonfor her minister to prepare the service, so he spoke a few weeks later on June 19th. From thenon, the state of Washington celebrated the third Sunday in June as Father's Day. Childrenmade special desserts, or visited their fathers if they lived apart.
父亲节的制定
States and organizations began lobbying(游说)Congress to declarean annual Father's Day.In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson approved of this idea, but it was not until 1924 whenPresident Calvin Coolidge made it a national event to "establish more intimaterelations betweenfathers and their children and to impress upon fathers the full measure of their obligations."Since then, fathers had been honored and recognized by their families throughout the countryon the third Sunday in June.
父亲节的庆祝!
When children can't visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greetingcard. Traditionally, fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental. Most greetingcards are whimsical(奇形怪状的，异想天开的)so fathers laugh when they open them. Some giveheartfelt thanks for being there wheneverthe child needed Dad.
