In eighteen eighty-nine, Socialists held an international congress in Paris. They chose May first as a workers' holiday and a day for demonstrations. Since then, the first of May has been observed as International Labor Day.
The United States, however, had already settled on another day. Peter McGuire was a New York labor leader. He is said to have suggested the first Monday in September as a holiday to honor labor. He said it was a nice time of the year for a celebration. He suggested parades to show the strength of labor organizations. And he urged people to end the day with outdoor parties.
The first Labor Day celebration in the United States took place in New York City on September fifth, eighteen eighty-two. About ten thousand workers marched through the streets. Then everyone went to a park to eat a meal and hear speeches and music. The idea quickly spread throughout the country. In eighteen ninety-four, Congress approved a bill to declare Labor Day a national holiday.
For years, the first Monday in September was a day when American workers demonstrated for better conditions and pay. Today, the Labor Day weekend is mostly observed as a time to enjoy the last warm days of summer.
When did Americans celebrate May Day？
A．The 1st of May.
B．The 1st of September.
C．The 1st Monday in September.
D．The 1st Monday in May.

The Empire State Building Turns 75
Empire State Building, the famous building in New York City is 75 years old.
The ground was broken on Jan. 22nd, 1930. Workers dug a hole about 17 meters deep for the foundation. In March, work began on the steel structure. It grew taller and taller. By November, well ahead of plans, the stonework on the outside of the building was finished.
On May 1st, 1931, President Herbert Hoover pressed a button in Washington, D.C. On went the lights of, at that time, the world's tallest building.
The Empire State Building in Midtown Manhattan was open for business.
The Empire State Building is just over 443 meters tall. That includes the 62-meter-tall lightening rod(避雷针)on top. There are 103 floors.
And if you want to reach them all on foot, just know there are more than 1860 stairs. Runners compete in a yearly race to the top. If even the thought of that makes you tired, then you might want to ride an elevator instead. The building has 73 of them.
The Empire, State Building sits on more than 7,000 square meters of land.
The building has 5 entrances and 6,500 windows.
And, last but not least, it has 250 workers who take care of the building.
Empire State Building Towers over New York City
The Empire State Building holds a special place in the hearts of Americans. For one thing, it was the tallest building in the world for more than 40 years.
But the Empire State Building is also a big player in the cultural history of New York City. One reason is its light shows. The first took place in 1932. A searchlight was lit on top of the building to honor the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt as president. New York is known as the Empire State, and Roosevelt was its governor.
In 1956, four large searchlights were added to the building. They were called Freedom Lights. They were meant as a way to send a message of welcome and hope to immigrants. The Freedom Lights were also meant to signal the hopes of Americans for peace. People at that time worried about the threat from the Soviet Union.
More lights were added in 1964. But a big surprise came in 1976. The Empire State Building shined in red, white and blue. The colors of the flag celebrated the 200th anniversary of American independence.
Ever since then, the owners of the Empire State Building have observed holidays and special events with color. For example, on February 14th, the building glows red for Valentine's Day, the day for love.
On Saint Patrick's Day, March 17th, the Empire State Building turns green to honor the patron saint(守护神)of Ireland. And on April 22nd, it shines a combination of green and blue to mark Earth Day.
There are also special colors to mark the independence days of several countries and to honor campaigns against diseases. There are even light shows to celebrate the birthdays of cartoon characters like Popeye and Betty Boop.
Sometimes the building goes dark as a remembrance, as it did in 2004 after the death of former President Ronald Reagan.
Photograph and Film Star
Even if you have never visited New York, there is a good chance you have seen the Empire State Building. It has been photographed countless times. It has even played parts in movies.
In 1933 the Empire State Building was one of the stars of "King Kong." A huge ape climbs to the top, fighting off airplanes and holding in his hand a screaming woman, played by Fay Wray.
In 1957 the Empire State Building appeared in the love story "An Affair to Remember." Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr play a man and a woman who meet and fall in love on a ship. They are looking at the New York City skyline from the ship when they plan a future meeting.

We all know April 1st can also be called April fool's Day. But do you know where it came from？ Do you know this day used to be a nation's New Year？
This is the case in France in sixteenth-century, which, when you think about it, may make more sense, for April is the time when spring returns. And the idea of beginning a year with spring would so easily be understood. The celebration for the New Year is pretty much the same as it is today. People hold and join all sorts of parties, singing and dancing into the late night.
Then in 1562, a new calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory for the Christian world. And the New Year began to be celebrated on January first. For any nation, the celebration of New Year is something that can not be replaced by other occasions. And the change of the New Year's date would not be accepted in an easy way. That's also why some people chose not to believe it when hearing the news. So they insist to celebrate New Year on April first, others played tricks on them and called them April fools.
Americans play small tricks on friends and strangers in a similar way on the first of April. One commonly-played trick is pointing down to a friend's shoe and saying, your shoelace is untied. And the examples we mentioned at the beginning of our passage is among the limitless ways for children to play tricks on their classmates, friends and so on. Most April fool jokes are in good fun and not meant to harm anyone. The cleverest April fool joke is the one where everyone laughs, especially the person upon whom the joke is played.
The examples the author mentions in the first paragraph is to ______ .
A．criticize the lack of good manners of the American school kids
B．warn us not to believe others without confirmation
C．highlight the idea that we should be nice to those people around us
D．introduce the of April Fool's Day in an way that would interest the readers
第10题
Surprisingly, since modern PR was largely an American invention, the U.S. leadership in public relations is being threatened by PR efforts in other countries. Ten years ago, for example, the world's top five public relations agencies were American-owned. In 1991, only one was. The British in particular are becoming more sophisticated and creative. A recent survey found that more than half of all British companies include PR as part of their corporate planning activities, compared to about one-third of U.S. companies. It may not belong before London replaces New York as the capital of PR.
Why is America lagging behind in the global PR race？ Firstly, Americans as a whole tend to be fairly provincial and take more of an interest in local affairs. Knowledge of world geography, for example, has never been strong in this country. Secondly, American lag behind their European and Asian counterparts in knowing a second language. Less than 5 percent of Burson-Marshall's U.S. employees know two languages. Ogilvy and Mather has about the same percentage. Conversely, some European firms have half or more of their employees fluent in a second language. Finally, people involved in PR abroad tend to keep a closer eye on international affairs. In the financial PR area, for instance, most Americans read the Wall Street Journal. Overseas, their counterparts read the Journal as well as the Financial Times of London and The Economist, publications not often read in this country.
Perhaps the PR industry might take a lesson from Ted Turner of CNN (Cable News Network). Turner recently announced that the word "foreign" would no longer be used on CNN news broadcasts. According to Turner, global communications have made the nations of the would so interdependent that there is no longer any such thing as foreign.
According to the passage, U.S. leadership in public relations is being threatened because of ______.
A．shrinking cultural differences and new communication technologies
B．increased efforts of other countries in public relations
C．an unparalleled increase in the number of public relations companies
D．the decreasing number of multinational corporations technologies
