Singles Day falls on every November 11th and this new holiday is one only for people who are
still living the single life. I was a bit surprised when I googled "Singles Day" on the Internet, to find that
China is the only country in the world that has set a special day for singles to celebrate their lives.
To find out more about this celebration, read on.
Origin (起源) of Singles Day
An old story goes that once there were four single men, leading very boring lives. None of them were
married, or had lovers,or did anything exciting. They just sat around all day and played Mahjong (麻将).
One day they played Mahjong from 11 in the morning until 11 at night. Even more of a coincidence
(巧合), it was Nov.11, or 11/11 . In order to celebrate the day, they named it Singles Day.
University culture
Singles Day was first celebrated at various universities in Nanjing, capital city of Jiangsu Province
during the l990s. It got the name Singles Day because the date is comprised (包含) of four "ones".
These college students graduated and carried their university tradition into society.Singles Day is now
a special day for all fashionable youths.
The main way to celebrate Singles Day is to have dinner with your single friends, but it"s important
that each person pays their own way to show their independence. People also hold "blinddate" (相亲)
parties in an attempt to say goodbye to their single lives.

celebrated.Mother"s Day falls on the second Sunday in May.On that day,many

People have been collecting things for thousands of years.Sir Hans Sloan
was a great collector,and when he died in the eighteenth century his collections
were put together in the British Museum.
It is from special collections in museums that people can learn about their
own countryside,about other areas of the country and other countries of the
world.If it were not for some people"s love of exploring and collecting,there
would be no museums.We would not be able to learn about life in other
countries.Many of the collections are of ancient things.Not everyone can afford
the time or money to explore and collect for themselves.
Some people think that ancient relics from other countries should be left in
the countries in which they have been found.They think it"s wrong that people
from other country should "steal" valuable articles and take them away.In the
nineteenth century rich people visited the Pharaohs" tombs in Egypt.They took

people think that these treasures should be returned.

know the history of the Internet?Many people are surprised when they find that
the Internet was set up in the 1960s.At that time,computer networks didn"t work
well.If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped.

many different computers.If part of the network was not working,information
could be sent through another part.In this way computer network system would
keep on working all the time,I"m daydaytest Placeholder
