Father’s Day is a special day when we celebrate (祝贺) fathers and grandfathers. After Mother’s Day became a holiday in America, a woman named Sonora Dodd wanted to have a day for fathers, too. Her mother had died (死了) when she was a baby, and her father had raised (抚育) her all by himself. So she began a special holiday, Father’s Day, to honor (尊敬) her own father, and all fathers. It is on the third Sunday in June.
On Father’s Day children make or buy presents for their fathers and grandfathers. The children also tell their fathers that they love them, and thank their fathers for all of the love and support (支持) that fathers give their children. Sometimes children make breakfast for their fathers and bring it to them in bed. It is a day to show love and respect (尊重) for fathers.
