Proms in the United States
At the end of school years there’s 1._______________ known as a ball, or a party, where everyone celebrates the end of the most important part of their life. In the USA it’s called a prom (from the word promenade). Sometimes it happens twice: at the end of school and after 2.________________ of one’s school years, that is the 9th form. This one in the USA is called 3.________________ .
Not all schools in America have an official junior prom. If you attend a small high school, there is only one prom and students from all grades are invited 4.______________. If you go to a larger high school, there is usually a senior prom that only graduating seniors and their guests are invited to, and a junior prom that underclassmen can attend.
Like the senior prom, girls 5._________________ and the guys usually wear suits or 6._______________. Prom is a fun reason to get dressed up, go all out, get your hair done, go out for a fancy meal, maybe even 7.________________ with some of your friends to celebrate in high style.

They check out 8.______________ for a prom dress that’s completely different from anything anyone else is going to be wearing.
Probably the most nerve-wracking thing about junior prom, or any other school dance for that matter, is 9.________________. It is a tradition in the USA to go to a prom as a couple. If you are not attached to someone when prom time rolls around and you still want to attend, the best way is to try making junior prom 10.__________________. Then you can attend with a group of guy and girl friends, where there are multiple unattached people. This way everyone gets to enjoy the fun of the prom without the pressure of having to find a date.

The Roaring Twenties
The years between 1920 and 1929 are often called the Roaring Twenties. Perhaps that is because of the way the 1920’s came roaring to life right after World War I. Daily life began to move faster than it ever had before. Trains raced across the quiet countryside. Automobiles were taking the place of horses and buggies. Airplanes began to flash across the sky. The modern age was above all an age of noise and speed.
The new age was reflected in changes in daily living, too. Clothing styles changed to meet the faster pace of life. Even jazz, the popular music of the twenties, seemed to show the influence of noise and speed. The graceful waltz was replaced by such dances as the “Charlestone”.
People began to go more often to see moving pictures. The pictures in those days were black and white and there was no sound with the picture until the late twenties. What the actors said was flashed on the screen in writing. In many theatres a man sat near the screen and played the piano to “set the mood”. He played sad music for sad scenes and fast music for storms, fights, and races.
At home more and more people began to enjoy a new invention called radio. The listener needed a high aerial and earphones to pick up the broadcast. Later, a speaker was put on top of the radio so that several people could hear the programme at the same time.
By 1920 people knew that the automobile was here to stay. In Europe and America they began to build roads suitable for auto traffic. These highways were soon filled with thousands of cars. The cars were not comfortable by modern standards. They bounced around terribly. The early cars ran at safer speed than they do today.
In the USA, the most important political event of the 1920’s was acceptance of the Nineteenth Amendment, guaranteeing to women the right to vote. This came about after a long and hard-fought campaign by many women.

THE STORY OF THE LAMB-PLANT
According to the recent survey, 70 per cent of ten-year-olds living in Scotland’s big cities think that cotton comes from sheep. It’s easy enough to mistake the soft white stuff sold in fluffy balls in plastic bags at the local chemist’s shop or supermarket with the curly stuff on a sheep’s back, especially when the only sheep you’ve seen are in books or on the TV. (1)
Rumours had first begun to circulate way back in the Middle Ages. The borametz, also known as the “lamb-plant”, was said to exist in Tartary, a far- away land stretching across Eastern Europe and Asia. None of those who told the various tales had actually seen it, but they’d always met men who had. ( 2 )
The man responsible for spreading the story in Britainwas John Mandeville, a knight of Englandwho left home in 1322, and for the next 34 years travelled about the world to many diverse countries. His account of what he saw was the medieval equivalent of a bestseller, and was translated in every European language. He wrote that he too had seen a type of fruit that when opened, proved to contain a small white creature that looked in every way to be a lamb. ( 3 )
This was apparently proof enough for Mandeville and those who passed on the story. With each telling, the story gained more details and greater credibility. But in the 16th and 17th centuries, people learned more about the world and its inhabitants. As doubts crept in, more sceptical travellers set out in search of the mysterious lamb of Tartary. (4 )
And so it went on. As soon as anyone voiced doubts, someone else popped up with new “evidence” of the lamb’s existence. In 1605, Frenchman Claude Duret devoted a whole chapter of a book on plants to the borametz. But then, 80 years later, the great traveler Engelbrecht Kaempfer went east looking for it. He found nothing but ordinary sheep. The number of believers was dwindling, and in Londonthe renowned scientific academy, the Royal Society, decided it was time to “kill off” the borametz for food. (5 )
This, the Society reckoned, was what had started the ancient rumours. They proclaimed it to be a “specimen” of a borametz, in fact. Hans Sloane, founder of the BritishMuseum, described the specimen in a contemporary publication: it was made from the root of a tree fern, had four legs and a head and seemed to be shaped by nature to imitate a lamb. The four-footed fake also had “wool” of a dark golden yellow. Despite this discrepancy in the colour of its fleece, the Royal Society considered the case closed. ( 6 )
The answer was there all along in the writing of ancient travelers. While researching his book Sea Monsters Unmasked, the observant Henry Lee kept coming across detailed descriptions of plants that sounded far more like the prototype borametz. The Royal Society, Lee decided, had settled for something so unlikely it had to be wrong. What so many had imagined to be a mythical animal in fact turned out to be ordinary cotton.
A And so it was, more or less, for 180 years. Then a little known naturalist pointed out that their so-called “original” lamb-plant was a false clue. There was, however, a plant that had almost certainly given rise to the notion of the borametz.
B There’s certainly doubt as to whether this was based on first-hand experience, but the contemporary guidebooks were certainly available. A few years earlier, a monk who came from a monastery nearPadua, wrote that “there grow fruits, which when they are ripe and open, display a little beast much like a young lamb”. He claimed he had heard this from reliable sources.
C The best way, it felt, was by showing people how the idea had begun. It was then lucky enough to suddenly receive a curious object from China, a sort of toy animal made from a plant with a few extra bits stuck on to give it a proper number of limbs.
D In some versions the “vegetable lambs” were the fruits of a tree that grew from a round seed. When the fruits ripened, they burst open to reveal tiny lambs with soft white fleece that the natives used to make their cloth. In others, the seed gave rise to a white lamb that grew on a stalk rooted in the ground, and lived by grazing on any plants it could reach.
E There’s less excuse for the generations of explorers, scholars and philosophers who were perhaps even more naïve. They were all happy to accept the story that the soft fibres trom which eastern people wove fine white cloth came, in fact, from a creature that was half-plant, half-animal.
F Distorted descriptions of the cotton plants seen inIndia preceded the actual plants by many years. In the meantime, traders bought samples of cotton “wool” along trade routes that passed through Tartar lands. To those who had never seen raw cotton, this fine “Tartar wool” looked like something that might come from the fleece of a lamb.
G Still it eluded them, yet most came home convinced that it existed. One of these was a powerful baron who represented theHoly Roman Empire at the Russian court. The baron had dismissed the sheep-on-stalk as fable until he heard the creature described by a “person in high authority” whose father had once been an envoy to take the King of Tartary. The story was enough to convince the baron.
