Last Thursday was my birthday. We had a big party at my house.

Three days before the party, my mother helped me to make invitation cards. She made a list of all the friends that I wanted to call and then made a card to send to each of my friends.

Next she took me to the supermarket and we bought balloons, masks and caps. We ordered the cake and bought some return presents. When we got back home, we hung the balloons all over the walls and on the fans and doors and windows.

invitation [,ΙnvΙ?teΙ∫?n] n. 邀請(qǐng)

list [lΙst] n. 名單

mask [mɑ?sk] n. 面具（復(fù)數(shù)：masks）

order [???d?] v. 訂購(gòu)（過(guò)去分詞：ordered）

return present [rΙ?tз?n ?prez?nt] 回禮（復(fù)數(shù)：return presents）

hang [h??] v. 懸掛（過(guò)去式：hung）

On the party day, my mother spent the whole day in the kitchen cooking for all of my friends. The cake arrived in the evening. It was a beautiful house with colourful icing and chocolate. I blew out the candles and made a wish. I cut the cake with my mother. Later we played some games and had some toffees and lollipops. And then, my father gave return presents to everybody.

It was really a wonderful party.

生日派對(duì)通常都離不開(kāi)蛋糕，璇璣姐姐順便給同學(xué)們介紹幾款好看又好吃的蛋糕，大家一起來(lái)了解一下吧。

草莓西瓜蛋糕 strawberry watermelon cake

澳洲悉尼Newtown區(qū)有一款人氣爆棚的蛋糕——草莓西瓜蛋糕！蛋糕賣相精致誘人，有五六層，中間以西瓜為夾心，頂層以玫瑰花瓣、草莓點(diǎn)綴，吃起來(lái)既松軟脆甜又鮮美多汁，口感層次豐富，清香而不油膩，是去悉尼旅游必嘗的美食。

翻糖蛋糕 fondant cake

翻糖蛋糕源自于英國(guó)的藝術(shù)蛋糕，翻糖（fondant）可以塑造出各式各樣的造型，因此成了當(dāng)今蛋糕裝飾的主流！
