Every year, people celebrate their amazing dads on Father’s Day. They often do this by buying them small gifts or taking them out for a meal. However, did you know that different countries celebrate this special day on different dates and sometimes with different traditions? The idea of Father’s Day in the US came about during the early 1900s. The holiday was started by a grateful daughter named Sonora Smart Dodd. Dodd’s father brought her up on his own after her mother died.
每年，人们会在父亲节这天颂扬他们了不起的爸爸。他们经常买小礼物给爸爸或带他们出去吃饭。然而，你知道不同国家会在不同的日期庆祝这个特殊的日子，有时还会采用不同的传统吗？在美国，父亲节的主意起源于二十世纪初期。这个节日是由一位心存感激的女儿发起，她名叫索诺拉．史马特．陶德。陶德的母亲过世之后，她父亲便独自将她抚养长大。
