In the United States,Mother's Day falls on the second Sunday in May.It was back in 1908when a woman named Anna Jarvis created this unofficial holiday to honor mothers.Traditionally,children and husbands honor mothers of all ages by buying flowers,cards and other gifts or taking them to dinner in a nice restaurant.But today,we instead will talk about some expressions that use the word"mother".
Some cultures believe Mother Earth gave birth to everything that exists on our planet.In Greek mythology,a goddess named Gaia was the great mother of all.She was said to have created the Earth and the Universe.Mother Nature is a little different.This term relates to the natural world as if it were a woman.
The mother lode(矿脉) comes from mining.It means a place where the largest amount of gold,silver,or anything else of value can be found.But now,the term mother lode means a rich supply of anything.We often use the word"strike"with this expression.For example,you might say," she just graduated from college and struck the mother lode with her new job!"
When we call something"the mother of all",it means it is the biggest or best of something.Here is an example:we are going to throw the mother of all parties this weekend.So you'd better come on time!
You might think all expressions about mothers are sweet and loving.Not so.For example,a boy who is"tied to his mother's apron strings(裙带)"is controlled by his mother.We can also call him a"mama's boy".Both of these terms are even more impolite,especially if you are talking about an adult man.
24.The author explains Mother Earth by___.
A.making a comparison
B.telling a historical story
C.introducing a Greek myth.
D.analyzing different words.
25.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3means___.
A.she could find something valuable.

27.What can be a suitable title of the text?___
