With the wide spread of the deadly COVID-19, the healthcare workers have been working day and night to take care of the 【小题1】 (infect) patients. Here are the details about International Nurses Day.

International Nurses Day 【小题2】( celebrate) first in 1965 to honour the nurses all over the world for their 【小题3】 (commit) to medical health and service, 【小题4】 (appeal) to people to show care and respect towards nurses. The day also commemorates Florence Nightingale’s birth - the woman 【小题5】 is widely regarded as the founder of modern nursing. Florence Nightingale was born on May 12th, 1820, and served 【小题6】 a trainer of nurses during the Crimean War. During the War, she 【小题7】 (manage) to care for wounded soldiers at Constantinople. Her contributions gave nursing a favorable reputation and she became a symbol of Victorian culture, 【小题8】 (especial) as “The Lady with the Lamp”, because of the touching fact 【小题9】she usually visited wounded soldiers at night. She was also regarded as 【小题10】 English reformer of modern nursing. Later, she won the Royal Red Cross award in 1883 and Order of Merit award in 1907.

Festivals of all kinds are celebrated throughout the world. They have a wide range of 【小题1】 (origin), such as the seasons of the year, religions, famous figures and important events.

People celebrate the harvest festival to show they are grateful 【小题2】 the year’s supply of food. In ancient times, Egyptians 【小题3】 (celebrate) the harvest festival during the springtime, which featured 【小题4】parade with music, dancing and sports. On Mid-Autumn Festival Chinese families get together to admire the moon and enjoy various 【小题5】 (taste) mooncakes.

As time goes by, some traditions may fade away while others may 【小题6】 (establish). For instance, on Chinese Spring Festival setting off firecrackers is forbidden in many big cities 【小题7】 (avoid) air pollution.

Nowadays festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with business 【小题8】 (take) advantage of the celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much 【小题9】 (easy) for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones.

Being an important part of society, festivals reflect people’s wishes, beliefs, faiths and attitudes towards life. Festivals are also occasions 【小题10】 we can relax, enjoy life and forget about our work for a little while.

A dog is a man's best friend. It is right, therefore, 【小题1】 there is a special day to celebrate dogs. National Dog Day takes place on the 26th of August every year. On this day you should let your dog 【小题2】（know）just how important he or she is.

Humans 【小题3】（keep）dogs as pets for over 15, 000 years. It's amazing how quickly word spread around the world that dogs were so 【小题4】（intelligence） and helpful.

It's also amazing how dogs migrated around the world.【小题7】（historian） believe it is because of sled dogs that the species moved from Russia to Alaska, across the Bering Strait.

Dogs are very important in our society. Of course, many of us keep a dog as a pet. However, working dogs help many people every day. Our world would not be the same 【小题8】 police dogs, sniffer dogs, rescue dogs and guide dogs for 【小题9】 blind. National Dog Day's founder, Colleen Paige, said we need to show deep appreciation for 【小题10】（they） enduring patience, unquestioning loyalty, their work and their capacity for love.
