When you were young, who (ride) you around on the back of his bike? Who played football and flew kites with you in the park? Who helped you with your (one) difficult maths problems? Who taught you the difference right and wrong? Your dad. Now it is your turn to do something for him. This year, June 16, is Father's Day. So why not do something (thank) your dad?

    The idea of Father's Day came from an American lady (call) Sonora Smart Dodd in 1909. She wanted a special day to honor (纪念) her father. He raised (抚养) six children after his wife's (die). Dodd thought there needed to be day to honor great and loving dads. Her father was born in June, she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration on his birthday in 1910. In 1924, US president Calvin Coolidge liked the idea of a national Father's Day. (final), in 1966, the third Sunday in June was made Father's Day.

    There are many ways to show your love and thanks to your father. Sending him a (greet) card or a small present can make him happy. Or you can just say "I love you, Dad."
