International Women's Day is on March 8 every year. On this day, people celebrate the achievements of women all over the world and continue to fight for basic rights (权利) for women.

How did it start? 

In 1908, women in New York City wanted the right to vote. They also hoped to acquire shorter working hours and better pay. Then, in 1910 in Denmark, a woman called Clara Zetkin had the idea for an international day for women. The first International Women's Day happened the next year.

Why do we need a special day for women? 

In many countries, men get higher pay than women for doing the same job. Men get a better education and better health care, and do less work at home. Men also get better chances than women to get their jobs. We need a change for women so that women can have the same chances as men.

How is International Women's Day celebrated? 

People usually celebrate by remembering important women in history, like Emmeline Pankhurst, Rosa Parks, Marie Curie...It's a very long list! They made great achievements in their fields.

People also have special events to celebrate it. In some countries, boys and men celebrate this day, too!

If you want to celebrate this important day, you could:

⒈learn about an important girl or woman in your country (for example, in sports, science or history) and tell your classmates about her;

⒉ask your teacher if you can do a class project about this day.

People use languages to communicate. Any language has its ways to express people's minds. One of the ways in common is the use of idioms. An idiom is a group of words. It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning. For example, under the weather is an idiom meaning ill. So when people say "I'm under the weather", they are saying that they're not feeling well. Another example, in all weathers means in all kinds of weather. So, "There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers" tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot.

Different languages may have different ways to make idioms. For people who are learning a foreign language, idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless problems. On the other hand if things are done right, idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk.

Metaphor(比喻)is often used in idioms. Let's read the following two examples:

▪Example 1: It makes my blood(血液)boil(煮沸)when my brother breaks my computer.

▪Example 2: The night was dark and quiet; my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside on a dark night.

In neither situation above, can our blood reach the point so high or so low in temperature. However, with the situations the two sentences created, it is not difficult to understand the  ▲  feeling in the first example and very afraid in the second.

Of course, not all idioms are this easy to understand. When we come to idioms of a foreign language, a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested.

Giving gifts to other people is common in our life, but sometimes it is difficult to give right gifts. How do we choose the right one? Let me tell you. 

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Will you always think a lot about how much you spend on a gift? But spending more does not always mean a good gift. In fact, most people don't care about the price of the gift. 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Sometimes we often shop for something special as gifts, but this may lead us to miss the things that people really want and need. It may make us buy them an improper(不合适的) gift. Don't forget about some normal things because they can also be good gifts. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

To shop better, a teacher at the University of British Columbia in Canada suggests starting with something you are both interested in. A study has also shown that gifts you both like can bring a close relationship, such as concert tickets or a cooking class. 

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

Asking people what they want is a useful way to choose a right gift. A study shows that people are happier for gifts they ask for than ones they don't need. It seems that the easiest way to make a person happy with a gift is asking them what they want. 

A. Don't forget normal things. 

B. Ask them what they want. 

C. Buy gifts based on shared interests. 

D. Don't care too much about the price. 

E. Remember to discuss with other people. 

What gift would you like to give your friend on his or her birthday? Why? (20词以内) {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
