People in the United States honour their parents with two
special days:Mother's Day,on the second Sunday in May,and
Father's Day,on the third Sunday in June.These days are set
aside to show love and respect for parents.They raise their
children and educate them to be responsible citizens.They give
love and care to their children.These two days offer an
opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and
fathers.More mothers now work outside the home.More fathers
must help with childcare.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways.
On Mother's Day people wear camations.A red one symbolizes a
living mother.A white one shows that mother is dead.Many
people attend religious services to honour their parents.It is also a
day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(墓
地).On these days families get together at home,as well as in
restaurants.They often have outdoor barbecues(烤肉)for Father's
Day.These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.Children make
them in school.Many people make their own presents.These are
valued more than the ones bought in stores.It is not the value of
the gift that is important,but it is "the thought that counts".
Greeting card stores,florists(花商),candy makers,bakeries,
telephone companies,and other stores do a lot of business during
these holidays.

在美国人们表达对父母的尊敬的日子有两个,母亲节和父亲节.母亲节是在每年五月的第二个星期天.父亲节是在六月的第三个星期天.这两个节日的设置都是为了表达对父母的爱意与尊重.父母生养教育子女成为有责任的公民.他们关心爱护子女.这两个节日会让人思考父母亲角色的变化.现在更多母亲外出工作,更多的父亲帮助养育孩子.
庆祝这两个节日有不同的方式.在母亲节,人民佩戴康乃馨.红色康乃馨表示母亲健在,白色康乃馨表示母亲已经去世.许多人通过宗教活动来祝福他们的父母.在这一天,那些父母已经去世的人民也会拜访他们父母的坟墓.在这些日子,有的家庭在家团聚而一些则选择餐馆.在父亲节,人们经常在户外烤肉.这些日子充满乐趣和美好回忆.
另一个传统就是赠送卡片和礼物.孩子们在学校制作卡片和礼物.许多人亲手制作礼物.比起在商店买到的礼物,这些礼物更有价值.重要的并不是价格,而是心意.贺卡商店,花商,糖果商,饼干商,电话公司及一些其它的商店在这两个日子生意兴隆.
