READING
2. Read the text and decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
In 1977 Governor Raul Castro signed a paper suggesting that August 7, 1977 was
American Family Day. One year later, Governor Bruce Babbitt signed the day into law as
an official Arizona holiday. American Family Day is now celebrated across the United
States on the first Sunday in August. It encourages people to enjoy the warming summer
days with those dearest to them. Principally, the day encourages families to spend time
with one another. Unlike some other family holidays, people do not give gifts on this day.

Instead, they celebrate the day by focusing on family relationships. People believe that
the best gift one can give their families is themselves. So on this day, people enjoy being
with their families. The most common activities family members often do together
include playing games outdoors or going for a walk in the park, watching a movie, visiting
grandparents and bringing them a picnic lunch. Some families enjoy taking an art class
together, visiting a museum or trying out a new recipe and getting the whole family
involved in the cooking. Whatever people do, the most important thing should be that
they do it with their families. Americans love their Family Day because it reminds them to
express their love to their family and helps strengthen their family bonds.
