Fireworks whistle overhead, and towering bonfires roar with orange flames. This is Guy Fawkes Night, held every year on November 5, and it has been celebrated for more than four hundred years. But here is the puzzle: why would an entire country light fires to remember something that never actually happened?  \nThe answer begins with a daring plan that failed at the very last moment. Back in 1605, a group of men in England were angry with King James I and hatched a secret scheme called the Gunpowder Plot. They stuffed barrels of gunpowder into a cellar beneath the Houses of Parliament, hoping to blow up the building while the king was inside. One of the plotters, a man named Guy Fawkes, was caught guarding those barrels in the early hours of November 5, and the plot fell apart before a single spark was lit.  \nBecause the king survived, Londoners were told to celebrate his lucky escape. That very night, people lit bonfires across the city to show their joy, and the custom quickly spread from town to town. Soon Parliament made November 5 an official day of thanksgiving, so the celebrating became a tradition passed down through families. What started as relief that a building still stood turned, over the years, into one of Britain's most beloved nights of the year.  \nFrom those first bonfires grew the fiery, sparkling festival you would see today. Families gather in parks and backyards to watch fireworks paint the darkness, while children wave sparklers that hiss like tiny sizzling stars. Many people also build straw figures called \"guys,\" dummies made to look like Guy Fawkes, and place them on top of the bonfire. People often eat warm treats such as toffee apples and baked potatoes to stay cozy against the November cold.  \nCuriously, this old British night now shares the calendar with a newer neighbor. Halloween, on October 31, has grown more popular in Britain over the past few decades, partly thanks to movies and stores selling costumes and candy. Some worry the two holidays are competing, since they fall less than a week apart, but plenty of British families simply enjoy both. And here is the thought to carry away: the man who tried to destroy Parliament is now remembered every single year with the biggest party of all.  \nGuy Fawkes Night  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What is the main idea of the second paragraph?\u003Cbr>A.
