---【英文节日】父亲节的历史
Sonora Dodd, of Washington, first had the idea of a "father's day." She thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909.
Sonora wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart, who was a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state.
After Sonora became an adult she realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, 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.
President Calvin Coolidge, in 1924, supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Then in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day. President Richard Nixon signed the law which finally made it permanent in 1972.
Note:veteran：老兵 selflessness：无私，忘我 parental：父母亲的 sacrifice：牺牲
proclamation：宣布

It Takes More Than Blood
It takes more than blood to be a dad.
Oh this is surely a proven fact.
I've seen men give his heart to a child ...
Never once think of taking it back.
A Dad is the one who is always there;
He protects a child from all harm.
He gives a child the assurance that he
will be their anchor in any storm.
A real Dad is a man that teaches his child
all the things in life he needs to know.
He's the tower of strength a child leans on.
The source of love that helps them grow.
There are men that children call Daddy.
Oh, he is their shelter when it rains.
He showers them with unconditional love.
As if it were his blood in their veins.
Whenever you meet a Dad that redefines the word,
honor him with all the respect that is due.
Understand that he proudly wears this banner ...
Because his heart is big enough for you.
It's sad but true that not all men understand
it takes more than blood to be a dad.
Someday if they wake up to their empty life ...
They shall miss what they could have had.
To those men who will never be a dad ...
No matter what they say or do.
It takes more than blood to possess that title ...
And it's only found in a man like you.
中文翻译：
不仅仅是血脉相连
成为一位父亲不仅仅是血源关系，
哦，这是一个不争的事实。
我见识过他们把自己的心给了孩子，
却从没想过要回。
爸爸是永远陪伴你的人。
他保护自己的孩子不受到任何伤害
他给孩子以保证，
不管遇到任何暴风雨，
他都会是他的锚。
真正的父亲是孩子的老师，
他教给孩子生活中所有他需要知道的事情。
他是孩子依靠的力量宝塔，
爱的力量帮助他们成长。
这有些被孩子成为父亲的男人，
哦，他是孩子们下雨时的避风港。
让他们沐浴在毫无条件的爱之中，
如同他们血管里的血液。
无论何时你见到一个父亲，你都会重新定义这个称谓，
给他以应得的尊敬来对他们表示敬意
理解他们骄傲地扮演着这一角色，
因为他的心对你来说足够大。
令人悲伤但却是事实，并不是所有的男人都理解
成为一个父亲并不是仅仅因为血缘，
如果有一天，他们唤醒自己空虚的心，
他们就会怀念自己本应得到的东西。
对于这些永远不会成为爸爸的人
不论他们说什么做什么
拥有这个称谓不仅仅是血缘的关系
而这也只能存在于像你这样的人中。

---父亲节献礼－名人赞父亲
"A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is a woman he turns her back again." -- Enid Bagnold
"It no longer bothers me that I may be constantly searching for father figures; by this time, I have found several and dearly enjoyed knowing them all." -- Alice Walker
"None of you can ever be proud enough of being the child of SUCH a Father who has not his equal in this world-so great, so good, so faultless. Try, all of you, to follow in his footsteps and don't be discouraged, for to be really in everything like him none of you, I am sure, will ever be. Try, therefore, to be like him in some points, and you will have acquired a great deal." -- Victoria, Queen of England
"That is the thankless position of the father in the family-the provider for all, and the enemy of all." -- J. August Strindberg
"It is a wise father that knows his own child." -- William Shakespeare
"It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was." -- Anne *ton
"One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters." -- English Proverb
"To be a successful father . . . there's one absolute rule: when you have a kid, don't look at it for the first two years." -- Ernest Hemingway
"A man knows when he is growing old because he begins to look like his father." -- Gabriel Garcquez
"I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection." -- Sigmund Freud
"I watched a small man with thick calluses on both hands work fifteen and sixteen hours a day. I saw him once literally bleed from the bottoms of his feet, a man who came here uneducated, alone, unable to speak the language, who taught me all I needed to know about faith and hard work by the simple eloquence of his example." -- Mario Cuomo
"Be kind to thy father, for when thou wert young, Who loved thee so fondly as he?
He caught the first accents that fell from thy tongue, And joined in thy innocent glee." -- Margaret Courtney
"If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right." -- Bill Cosby
"Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!" -- Lydia M. Child
父亲节的故事
上帝创造了父亲。在创造父亲的时候，他把父亲形象弄得很高大，手看起来也很笨拙。不能像妈妈那样灵巧地帮助孩子带尿布。你知道上帝是怎么解释自己这样做的理由的吗？请看
---上帝创造父亲God & Father
When the good Lord was creating fathers, He started with a tall frame. And a female angel nearby said, "What kind of father is that? If you're going to make children so close to the ground, why have you put fathers up so high? He won't be able to shoot marbles without kneeling, tuck a child in bed without bending, or even kiss a child without a lot of stooping."
And God smiled and said, "Yes, but if I make him child size, who would children have to look up to?"
And when God made a father' hands, they were large and sinewy.
And the angel shook her head sadly and said, "Do You know what You're doing? Large hands are clumsy. They can't manage diaper pins, small buttons, rubber bands on pony tails or even remove splinters caused by baseball bats."
God smiled and said, "I know, but they're large enough to hold everything a small boy empties from his pockets at the end of a day, and get small enough to cup a child's face."
Then God molded long, slim legs and broad shoulders.
The angel nearly had a heart attack. "Boy, this is the end of the week, all right," she clucked. "Do You realize You just made a father without a lap? How is he going to pull a child close to him without the kid falling between his legs?"
God smiled and said, "A mother needs a lap. A father needs strong shoulders to pull a sled, balance a boy on a bicycle or hold a sleepy head on the way home from the circus."
Note:shoot marbles：弹弹球 kneeling：跪下 stooping：弯腰 sinewy：强壮有力的
clumsy：笨拙的 diaper：尿布 pony tail：马尾辫 splinter：碎片 mold：浇铸cluck：咯咯叫 lap：膝盖
God was in the middle of creating two of the largest feet anyone had ever seen when the angel could contain herself no longer. "That' not fair. Do You honestly think those large boats are going to dig out of bed early in the morning when the baby cries? Or walk through a small birthday party without crushing at least three of the guests?"
And God smiled and said, "They'll work. You'll see. They'll support a small child who wants to "ride a horse to Banbury Cross" or scare off mice at the summer cabin, or display shoes that will be a challenge to fill."
God worked throughout the night, giving the father few words, but a firm authoritative voice; eyes that see everything, but remain calm and tolerant.
Finally, almost as an afterthought, He added tears. Then He turned to the angel and said, "Now are you satisfied that he can love as much as a mother?"
And the angel shutteth up!

先看两个小笑话 ---爸爸不会喜欢的For Father ---谁的爸爸是最强壮的 Dad
爸爸不会喜欢的For Father A clergyman walking down a country lane and sees a young farmer struggling to load hay back onto a cart after it had fallen off.
"You look hot, my son," said the cleric. "why don't you rest a moment, and I'll give you a hand."
"No thanks," said the young man.
"My father wouldn't like it."
"Don't be silly," the minister said.
"Everyone is entitled to a break. Come and have a drink of water."
Again the young man protested that his father would be upset. Losing his patience, the clergyman said, "Your father must be a real slave driver. Tell me where I can find him and I'll give him a piece of my mind!"
"Well," replied the young farmer, "he's under the load of hay."

一牧师走在乡村的小路上，看见一个年轻的农夫正在费力地将掉落的干草放回车上。
"你看起来很热，我的孩子，"牧师说，"为什么你不歇一会，我会帮助你的。"
"不，谢谢了。"年轻人说。
"我的爸爸不会喜欢我这样做的。"
"别傻了。"牧师说。
"每一个人都有权利休息。来喝点水吧。"
年轻人再一次坚持他爸爸会生气地。牧师没了耐心，说："你爸爸一定是个苛刻的监工。告诉我我怎样才能找到他，我要给他上一课。"
"好吧。"年轻人回答说。"他在干草的下面。"
谁的爸爸是最强壮的 Dad
Will and Bill were quarrelling about whose father was the stronger. Will said, "Well, you know the Pacific Ocean ? My father's the one who dug the hole for it."
Bill wasn't impressed, "Well, that's nothing. You know the Dead Sea ? My father's the one who killed it!"
