While established by Wdrw Wilsn as a hliday in the United States in 1911, the practice f recgnizing mthers n a specific day r time f year has spread t mre than 40 cuntries. Here's a lk at the varius traditins.

Thailand
While all mthers are recgnized during Mther's Day in Thailand, the hliday is largely centered n Sirikit, the queen mther f Thailand. Mther's Day is celebrated n her birthday, August 12, and public places and husehlds are decrated with lights and pictures f Sirikit. Flwers like jasmine are ppular gifts.

Salad seeds (生菜种子) that went n a rund trip t uter space and back grew at a slightly slwer rate than the nes n earth, scientists fund, thanks t thusands f yung peple wh helped cnduct an ut-f-this-wrld experiment.
The prject started in 2015, when British astrnaut Tim Peake tk a millin seeds with him n his jurney t the Internatinal Space Statin (ISS). The seeds spent six mnths there befre they were sent back t Earth in 2016. In a message sent frm the ISS, Peake said the purpse f the science experiment was t find ut if the cnditins in space affected the seeds’ ability t grw.
Arund 600,000 pupils at 8,600 schls in the UK were then asked t grw the rcket seeds that had been t space, alng with regular seeds that had never left the planet. Peake described the experiment as “ne f the largest and mst inspiratinal experiments f its kind”.
The results f the study, which have just been published, fund that the space seeds grew mre slwly than the nes that had stayed n Earth. Researchers n the experiment said this was due t the stresses f space travel, such as the zer-gravity (零重力) atmsphere and high levels f csmic rays (宇宙射线), which slwed the grwth f the plants.
Nw researchers are hpeful that if the seeds are prperly prtected, it might be pssible t grw plants during future space tasks t ther planets. Dr Jake Chandler, frm University f Lndn, wh led the study, said, “The pssibility f eating hme-grwn salad n Mars may be ne small step clser.”
4.Why did Tim Peake take seeds t ISS?
A. T explre the secret t gravity.
B. T have astrnauts grw salad in ISS.
C. T prmte yung kids’ interest in salad.
D. T test the space’s influence n seeds’ grwth.
5.Hw did Tim Peake feel abut the experiment?
A. Encuraged.B. Disappinted.C. Cnfused.D. Cncerned.
6.Frm which part f a website is the text prbably taken?
A. Health.B. Science.C. Educatin.D. Business.
7.What culd be the best title f the text?
A. Space study, a ht tpic
B. Salad grwing, a hit amng students
C. The cnditins in space affect the seeds’ grwth
D. Man’s explratin t Mars, a big step frward

Afternn tea, the mst typical f English custms, is, perhaps surprisingly, a relatively new traditin. The custm f drinking tea became ppular in England during the 1660s thanks t King Charles II and his wife, and it was nt until the mid-19th century that the cncept f “afternn tea” first appeared.
Afternn tea was intrduced by Anna, the Duchess f Bedfrd, in the year 1840. At that time lunch was taken early but the evening meal was served fashinably late at eight 'clck, leaving a lng perid f time between the tw meals. The Duchess wuld becme hungry in the afternn, s she asked that tea and cake be brught t her rm arund fur 'clck. This became a habit f hers and later she began inviting friends t jin her.
This palace tea party was such a success that it sn spread t Lndn and ther places in UK as a fashinable scial event. During the 1880’s, upper-class wmen wuld dress up fr their afternn tea, als knwn as “lw tea” because tea was taken while sitting in lw, cmfrtable chairs r sfas.
While Lw Tea was largely a game fr the upper class, “high tea” was a necessary meal fr wrking class families. During the secnd half f the Victrian Perid, wrking families wuld return hme late tired and exhausted. As the mst imprtant meal f the day, the table wuld be set with meats, bread, butter, cheese and f curse, a pt f gd, strng tea t lift their spirits. Because it was eaten at a high, dining table, it was called “high” tea.
T experience the best f the afternn tea traditin, treat yurself with a trip t ne f Lndn’s finest htels. There are als a wide selectin f ld-fashined tearms ffering afternn tea experience.
We prvide very British afternn tea experience trips during yur stay in Lndn. Just tell yur tur guide when yu want t taste the culture and we will arrange everything fr yu with a very reasnable charge. It’ll be a nce in a lifetime experience. Dn’t miss it.

A demnstratin missin t test an idea f cleaning up space junk was launched this mrning in Kazakhstan. Knwn as ELSA-D, the missin will exhibit technlgy that can help deal with space junk. The spacecraft wrks by attempting t attach itself t dead satellites and pushing them tward the Earth t burn up in the atmsphere.
ELSA-D, which stands fr End-f-life Services by Astrscale, will be carried ut by a “servicer spacecraft” and a “client satellite” that are launched tgether, accrding t Astrscale, spacecraft will release and try t meet with the client satellite, which will act as a piece f space junk.
The missin will carry ut this catch-and-release prcess repeatedly ver the curse f six mnths. The gal is t prve the servicer’s ability t track dwn and dck with its target in varying levels f cmplexity. Hwever, the spacecraft is nt designed t deal with dead satellites already in rbit, but rather future satellites that wuld be launched with dcking plates n them.
Space junk has been a grwing prblem fr years. Accrding t a recent reprt by NASA, at least 26,000 f the millins f pieces f space junk are the size f a sftball. Orbiting alng at 17,500mph, they culd destry a satellite. And the mst cmmn space junk, mre than 100 millin pieces, is the size f a grain f salt and culd make hles in a spacesuit, amplifyingrisk t spacecraft and crew.
The develpment f ther cleanup technlgies has been underway fr years. In 2016, Japan’s space agency sent a 700-meter chain int space t try t slw dwn and redirect space junk. In 2018, a device called RemveDebris successfully cast a net arund a large piece f space junk. These effrts culd prve increasingly imprtant as private space prjects like SpaceX cntinue t fill lw Earth rbit in a messy way.
12.Hw will the servicer spacecraft functin?
A. By breaking space junk int pieces.
B. By pushing space junk twards the Earth.
C. By adding dcking plates t client satellites.
D. By drawing dead satellites away frm the Earth.
13.What kind f space junk will the servicer mainly deal with?
A. Dead satellites in rbit.
B. Large pieces f space junk.
C. Satellites t be launched with dcking plates.
D. Space junk arund wrking satellites in a messy way.
14.Which f the fllwing can best replace the underlined wrd “amplifying” in Paragraph 4?
A. increasingB. remvingC. examiningD. transprting
15.What can we infer frm the last paragraph?
A. Space research is becming imprtant.
B. The functin f artificial satellites is varius.
C. It’s necessary t cnduct the clear-up missin.
D. SpaceX plays an imprtant rle in sending satellites.
