III.Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Most Americans love to send and receive cards for every occasion and for no special reason in particular. Cards are sent not only at Christmas, but also for birthdays, anniversaries, graduations and weddings. For example, if someone is going on a trip, then a Bon Voyage card is sent to the departing traveler.
Some cards are suitable for greeting. Others are merely sent to reestablish contact with an old friend. These cards are attempts to keep up relationships with cherished friends who we haven’t seen or heard from for a long time.
The most popular category of cards is purely seasonal. Easter cards are sent in the spring, while Halloween and Thanksgiving cards are sent in the fall. The most popular cards, however, are the Christmas ones which are collected and often displayed on fireplaces and around windows and doorways in the home. These are the most cherished of all because they come but once a year from friends of the distant past who have been separated by both time and space.
Many of these cards are bought in stores which specialize in stationary and party goods. Sometimes they are handmade and often humorous, but the sending of cards is anything but frivolous. It is an attempt to bind relationships, deepen friendships and unite people to the ones they love.
