Since the end of World War I(WWI) in 1918, Canadians, and millions of others around the world have paused at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month to honour the sacrifice our soldiers have made in different ways, fighting for the freedoms that we all enjoy today.
Known as Remembrance Day, the day originated as a tribute to the soldiers of WWI, a dark period for our young country, which claimed the lives of over 60,000 military personnel and civilians and over 16 million dead worldwide. As there are no more surviving soldiers of WWI, today we rely on the wisdom and words of those soldiers who fought in the wars that followed and this day now also recognizes their heroic contribution. They tell us to always remember what those brave souls fought for, and all they ask in return is that we never forget.
That’s why we wear the red poppy(罂粟花);that’s why when we see a soldier in uniform we should stop him or her and say “Thank you”; that’s why we take a pause from our busy lives for two short minutes today to honor that request. Yet this message is fading away, year after year. Take for example the terrible decision to allow parents to excuse students from Remembrance Day ceremonies at school. Not only is this disrespectful, it distances the student from his or her classmates.
It is difficult to understand why any Canadian parent would want to remove their child from the time-honored tradition of reading the poem in Flanders Fields, while a wreath of poppies is laid. It is more important than ever to teach school-aged children about our history, no matter how violent it was. Sheltering them from the realities of war is a great disservice. Understanding why conflicts happened, or happen today can help shape choices and decisions they make as adults.
Of course, because we live in a free society, we cannot force an individual to do something. It is unfortunate, but some parents now have their child “opt-out” of the services. These people should be reminded they are free to make such choices only because of the men and women the rest of us are remembering.

最佳答案
(答案→)B 解析:文章讲述了作者认为士兵们的牺牲应该被永远怀念,而很多的加拿大的父母亲去有意的不让自己的孩子去参加荣军节的活动,不让他们去了解战争的本质,这使得作者非常的担忧。【小题1】细节题。从That’s why we wear the red poppy (罂粟花); that’s why when we see a soldier in uniform we should stop him or her and say “Thank you” ; that’s why we take a pause from our busy lives for two short minutes today to honor that request.可知在这一天只有听老兵讲解故事没有提到,故选B【小题2】细节题。从Take for example the terrible decision to allow parents to excuse students from Remembrance Day ceremonies at school.及第七自然段,可知加拿大的父母们有意的使孩子们避开那些有关战争的故事,故选D【小题3】细节推断题。从It is difficult to understand why any Canadian parent would want to remove their child from the time-honored tradition 可知最后一段的it指代的是父母亲使孩子们远离荣军节相关活动的这件事,故选D【小题4】推断题。从文章最后一段及These people should be reminded they are free to make such choices only because of the men and women the rest of us are remembering.可知作者认为士兵们的牺牲应该被永远怀念,故选A
