2010-12-18来源:和谐英语

A: Do you have any plans for Veteran’s Day?

B: You mean Armistice Day.

A: Well,  as  you  know,  on  November  11th the allies signed a peace treaty with the Germans,  also known as the Armistice Treaty. This marked the end of WWI and many countries around the world commemorate this date under names such as Remembers’ Day.   In Poland  it’s  their  independence  day! There’s a lot going on around the world on this  day.

B: Wow, I didn’t know! Probably because I flunked history in school.
