The value of motherhood
In shopping malls, the assistants try to push you into buying “ a gift to thank her for her unselfish love”. When you log onto1 a website, a small popo-up2 invites you to book a bouquet for her. Commercial warmth and gratitude are the atmosphere being spread around for this special Sunday in May.来源：中国职称英语考试网
_____(1)_____. The popularity of Mother’s Day around the world suggests that Jarvis got all she wanted. In fact, she got more-enough to make her horrified.
_____(2)_____. They buy, among other things, 132 million cards. Mother’s Day is the No 1 holiday for flower purchases. Then there are the various commodities, ranging from jewelry and clothes to cosmetics and washing powder, that take advantage of the promotion opportunities, Because of this, Jarvis spent the last 40 years of her life trying to stop Mother’s Day. One protest against the commercialization of Mother’s Day even got her arrested-for disturbing the peace, interestingly.
_____(3)_____. As Ralph Fevre, a reporter at the UK newspaper The Guardian, observe, traditionally “motherhood is something that we do because we think it’s right.” But in the logic of commercialism, people need something in exchange for their time and energy. A career serves this purpose better.来源：中国职称英语考试网
_____(4)_____. So they work hard and play hard. Becoming a mother, however, inevitably handicaps career anticipation.
_____(5)_____. According to The Guardian, there are twice as many child-free young women as there were a generation ago. Or, they put off the responsibility of parenting until later in their lives.
So, Fevre writes that the meaning of celebrating Mother’s Day needs to be updated: “It is to persuade people that parenting is a good idea and to honor people for their attempt to be good people.”

D According to a research by the US card company Hallmark, 96 percent of American consumers celebrate the holiday.

标准答案：A,D,B,F,E 来源：中国职称英语考试网
解 析：1. A. 选项A 中出现了两处词语与空格后句中的词语形成呼应：Mother’s Day – Mother’s Day, Anna Javi – Javis, 因此A可能是答案。而且空格后句中的she在空格前句中有指代的内容： 指代Anna Javis， 因此A是答案。
2. D. 选项D中有2词与空格后句中的词语呼应（D： cards – cards; holiday - holiday）， 因此D可能是答案。
提示： 细节信息句（常常带有数字， 或出现了for example）常常接连出现。
3. B. 选项B和选项E中均出现了1个与空格后句中的词语呼应的词语： motherhood – motherhood， 但是E与空格后句不能形成自然衔接： E与空格后句在句意上是转折关系， 但是这两个句子中并没有出现标志“转折关系”的逻辑连词/逻辑副词（如： but, however等）， 因此E不是答案， 其实B还与空格后句中的commercialism形成呼应， 因此答案是B。来源：中国职称英语考试网
4. F. 只有F 中有指代人的复数名词（women）能成为空格后句中代词they的指代内容， 因此F是答案。
5．E． 只有E中有词语与空格后句中的词语呼应（motherhood - mother），因此首先关注E。 从句意上看， E是概括句，空格后句是用具体的数字对E进行解释。
