📖 題組：
On Teachers’ Day, we thank our teachers for their hard work. We also celebrate this day to remember Confucius, the great Chinese teacher from 2,500 years ago. Well, that’s everything we’re taught about Teachers’ Day. But, the first Teachers’ Day was not on Confucius’s birthday, and it was not about thanking our teachers. In 1930, Mr. Tai Shuang-qiu and other teachers celebrated the first Teachers’ Day in Nanjing. But there was nothing to celebrate. Teachers were paid very little and not respected. These teachers took this chance to shout out their problems. They had Teachers’ Day on June 6 because the date was easy to remember and near the end of the school year. This action by Mr. Tai and the other teachers was welcomed and followed by teachers from other cities. In 1939, the government made Teachers’ Day a national holiday. However, it was on August 27, the day when Confucius’s birthday was celebrated. Not everyone hailed this decision: Teachers’ Day was never about Confucius, and Confucius couldn’t speak for all the teachers either. One funny thing was that the government was wrong about the date of Confucius’s birthday. In 1952, people found out he was in fact born on September 28. That was when we started to celebrate Teachers’ Day on Confucius’s real birthday.

讓我們一起找找看文章中提到的不同年份（例如 1930 年、1939 年和 1952 年），在這些特定的時間點，教師節分別是在哪一天慶祝的呢？這些日期是一直都固定不變，還是隨著時間有過不同的安排呢？

哇！太厲害了！你完全看穿了教師節背後的歷史變遷呢。來，靠近正確答案一點，我要幫你和 A 選項拍一張最棒的合照喔！喀嚓！✨ 這題為什麼對呢？文章裡提到教師節經歷了幾次「變身」：1930 年最早是在 6 月 6 日，1939 年政府改成 8 月 27 日，最後 1952 年才正名為孔子真正的生日 9 月 28 日。所以說，教師節在過去確實是在「不同的日期」慶祝的，選項 (A) 完全正確呢！ 這道題目屬於 medium 難度。雖然文章細節很多，但只要像玩尋寶遊戲一樣把時間線找出來，就能輕鬆破關了。你能從這麼多日期干擾中抓到重點，真的很有實力呢！
