The annual celebration of St. Patrick's Day is coming soon to the Canton Tower. St. Patrick's Day is an Irish cultural and religious celebration occurring annually on March 17. The festival celebrates the life of St. Patrick, who helped the poor and taught the Irish people good things. The Canton Tower has become one of the premier (最初的) party sites for this international and lively event. As part of the celebration, the tower will brighten the night with brilliant light shows. Participants are sure to enjoy the festive atmosphere.
As in the past years, camping lovers will gather to spend a night beneath the Canton Tower. The time for the camping adventure will be from 3 p. m. on March 17 to 9 a. m. on March 18. The event offers people a great chance to enjoy this special and free camping site.
Artists will perform a range of music with instruments played typically in Irish folk music, featuring tin whistles and wind pipes. Foods will also be a treat, as the taste of traditional Irish food will surely attract everyone.

In many cultures, a girl's "big day" is recognized as her wedding day. But in the Philippines, many girls don't have to wait that long. Eighteenth birthdays are a formal celebration, called "the debut", which means the girls enter the age of adulthood.
"I actually didn't like the idea of celebrating a debut because I was really boyish when I was younger," explained Hannah Cafe, a recent debutante. "But when I heard my mom's plans, they changed my mind. They brought out a different side of me—the one that wanted to be treated like a princess."
Traditionally, the debutante wears a grand dress and is surrounded by her family and friends throughout a program that includes a dance by a group of people, an "18 roses" segment(部分), where the important men in the debutante's life present her with a rose and invite her to dance, and an "18 candles" segment, where the important women in her life give individual speeches and good wishes.
But many debutantes today introduce modern elements to the celebration. "Instead of having the regular '18 roses' and '18 candles', we used '18 carnations(康乃馨)' and '18 sparklers'," described Hannah.
During the 18 flowers segment, it tends to get more emotional during the father-daughter dance. But Hannah laughed at the question of getting emotional during this part of her debut. "Actually, my father was so energetic that he had everyone bursting out laughing." Hannah's debut had other additional 18-themed segments, like the "18 gifts", but her favorite moment wasn't even part of the program she knew of. "My favorite part was the surprise song prepared by my classmates. I really appreciated the fact that they spent time practicing it and kept it secret from me. My eyes got teary on that occasion when they started singing."
"A girl's debut marks a very important day in her life," said Hannah. "That's something she gets to treasure forever."
1. What can be learned about younger Hannah
A. She behaved like a boy. B. She was eager to grow up.
C. She showed great interest in the debut. D. She wanted to be treated like a princess.
2. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The key participants in the debut. B. How the debut has changed over time.
C. The modern elements in the debut. D. What the debut was like in the past.
3. How did Hannah's father feel during the father-daughter dance
A. Nervous. B. Relieved. C. Cheerful. D. Emotional.
4. Which of the following moments did Hannah like best
A. Dancing with her father.
B. Making a wish before 18 candles.
C. Receiving 18 flowers from her mother.
D. Listening to her classmates' surprise song.
