On the third Sunday in June fathers all across the United States are given presents treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special However the idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane Washington A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father s Day while listening to a Mother s Day sermon in 1909 Having been raised by her father Henry Jackson Smart after her mother died Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was in the eyes of his daughter a selfless and loving man Sonora s father was born in June so she chose to hold the first Father s Day celebration in Spokane Washington on the 19th of June 1910 In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Father s Day Roses are the Father s Day flowers red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died When children can t visit their fathers or take them out to dinner they send a greeting card Traditionally fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental Most greeting cards are too special so fathers laugh when they open them Some give

smaller pieces Finally stones pebbles 砾石 and grains of sand were formed Many sorts of plants and animals lived and died on the surface of the earth Their remains mixed up with the stones pebbles and formed soil The outmost layer of the earth is soil There are many ways in which large pieces of rock break up into smaller ones Wind water heat and cold help to break up rocks When winds blow grains of sand against a large rock for a long time the softer layers of the rock are slowly worn away These leave holes and cracks 裂缝 in the rock which become bigger and finally the rock breaks up into smaller pieces The moving water of streams and rivers also helps to break up rocks As the water moves along it carries with small pieces of rock These rub the larger ones Thus the larger rocks are worn down to smaller pieces The heat of the sun is also helpful in breaking up rocks When the sun shines the rocks become very hot If these rocks are suddenly cooled they may crack Ice also plays a

passage soil 5 A forms very slowly B
