Teacher: Good afternoon, children! Today we can learn about a very interesting tradition of English people “Guy Fawkes Night”. Listen to the story about this event and be ready to answer the questions of the quiz.

P1: The festivities which take place in Britain on 5th November each year commemorate the attempt in 1605 by Guy Fawkes and a group of conspirators to blow up the Houses of Parliament in London, in vengeance for what they considered to be unfair treatment of Catholics by King James I.

P2: In a cellar beneath the House of Lords, the 13 conspirators hid 36 barrels of gunpow­der, which they planned to set light to during the opening of Parliament when the King and the whole of Parliament would be present. However, news reached the King in time, and his forces stormed the hideaway and found Guy Fawkes, who was arrested, tortured and publicly executed, along with his fellow plotters.

P3: The event is commemorated every year in Britain with fireworks and bonfires. The bon­fire tradition dates back to the night of the failed coup, when Londoners lit fires to cele­brate the King's escape. Often children make a dummy of Guy Fawkes, and collect money by asking for "a penny for the Guy", before placing it on top of the fire.

Remember, remember the fifth of November

Gunpowder, treason and plot.

I see no reason why gunpowder, treason

Should ever be forgot.

Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, ‘twas his intent

To blow up the King and the Parliament

With three score barrels of powder below

Poor old England to overthrow.

But by God’s providence he was catch’d

With darkened lantern and slow burning match

Holloa boys, holloa boys, make the bells ring

Holloa boys, holloa boys, God saves the King!
