READING:
Read the passage about a birthday party and then answer the following question:

I was invited by my neighbours to attend their son’s birthday party last Saturday evening. It was not an ordinary celebration. The young couple had been childless for ten years after they got married and so they were thrilled to have a child after they had virtually given up.
I had decided to bring my camera to take some photographs of the happy family. The birthday cake was displayed prominently in the middle of the sitting room. Little John, the birthday boy, was all excited and wanted to leave his finger prints on the cake. The relatives and friends began to arrive with their presents wrapped in colourful boxes.
At exactly 8p.m, it was declared that the cake would be cut. The boy was dressed in a smart, brand-new outfit and looked like a little prince. The candles were blown out and the food began to arrive. The host and his wife moved around to make sure that everyone was having a good time. Little John seemed to know his important role in the party and kept grinning all the time. He did not enjoy the hugs or kisses from the guests very much as he was now only interested in the toys he had just received.
The party came to an end at about 10.30p.m. I went home feeling that it had been a delightful evening and looking forward to the next day to have the film developed.
