Read the following passage. Decide if the statements are True or False, and choose the correct answers (A, B, C or D) for question. In Britain there is a holiday now which people call Mother s Day. In the old days many girls from working-class families in towns and cities and from farmers' families in the country worked in rich houses. Once a year, it was usually on Sunday in March, they were allowed to visit their mothers. They went home and brought presents for their mothers and for other members of their families. People called that day Mothering Day or Mothering Sunday. Mothering Day later became Mother’s Day. It is the last Sunday in March. In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson and Congress agreed that the second Sunday in May should be observed as Mother's Day In America. On that day, children give their mothers flowers, presents and cards to show their love to their mothers. Americans spend millions of dollars to buy Mother’s Day gifts. Clothes, perfume, jewelry and books or tickets to the theater are given to mothers. People who cannot be with their mothers on that day usually send them presents and call them on the phone.

- Mother's Day is a day on which children show their love to their male parents.
