Apollo Ⅸ astronauts 11 it on March 8, 1969.It is one of the most popular English songs of all time. Here’s the story behind it.The song was written by two sisters from Kentucky, Mildred and Patty Smith Hill. It was first published under the12of “Good Morning to All” in 1893. It was used as a classroom 13 .Teachers sang it each day to welcome their students to the classroom.The composer, Mildred Hill, was a concert pianist.Her sister Patty Smith Hill wrote the original(最初的)lyrics(歌词)for the song while she was a teacher in a kindergarten in Louisville, Kentucky, where Mildred also 14 .The Hill sisters copyrighted(取得版权) their song on October 16, 1893. However, it appeared 15 their agreement in Robert H. Coleman’s songbook on March 4, 1924. Coleman changed part of the lyrics to say, “Happy Birthday to You”,16 the song still had its original title. The song was then published several times over the next ten years, often with small 17 in the lyrics. In 1934, when the song was sung every night in a Broadway Musical, another Hill sister, Jessica, went to court(法院) over the copyright problem of the song. She was 18 about the theft of the song and the failure to pay to her sisters. She 19 her case.

I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles(风格)” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people will use landmarks(地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Tur n left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the maps; they measure distance in time, not mile. “How far is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers, “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. The y usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!根据上文内容判断正(T)误(F)。
