A huge bonfire crackles and glows, warming your face while sparks float up like tiny stars. Then fireworks burst overhead in red, green, and gold, and the whole crowd goes \"Ooooh!\" This is Guy Fawkes Night, one of the most fun evenings of the year in the United Kingdom.  \nThose bright fireworks help people remember something that happened more than 400 years ago. Long ago, in the year 1605, a group of men had a secret plan called the Gunpowder Plot. They wanted to blow up the building where the king and the government met, but their plan was discovered first. A man named Guy Fawkes was caught guarding the gunpowder, so the whole plot failed.  \nBecause the king was safe, the happy people of London lit bonfires that very night to celebrate. Every year after that, families kept the tradition going with fires and, later, with fireworks. People even make a straw figure called a \"guy,\" which is a stuffed dummy dressed in old clothes. They place the guy on top of the bonfire, and that is why some children still call this night \"Bonfire Night. \"  \nToday Guy Fawkes Night comes just a few days after Halloween, so the two celebrations sometimes feel like a team. Kids might dress up on October 31 and then watch fireworks on November 5. Families roast potatoes and marshmallows near the warm fire while sparklers glow in their hands. So the next time you see fireworks in the sky, remember they can carry a story that is centuries old!  \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 this passage?\u003Cbr>A.
