Mike and his wife Julie had five daughters. Their names were Rose, Jane, Kate, Tara, and Lisa. Their birthdays were all in January, but on different days, Rose on 3rd, Jane on 7th, Kate on 10th, Tara on 22nd, and Lisa on 29th.
Every year in January, the mother had to make five birthday cakes and the father had to help with the five birthday parties for their daughters. They loved their children very much, but they were very tired of preparing birthday parties.
So this year, Julie and Mike decided to have only one birthday party with one birthday cake for all their daughters. This year they held the party on 3rd. Next year they will make it on 7th, and so on. They permitted each daughter to invite five friends to the big birthday party. So it would be a loud, noisy, fun party.
Julie wanted to make one big cake for the five girls, but they liked different colours with different food on the cake. Rose liked red with apples. Jane liked orange with chocolate. Kate liked yellow with bananas. Tara liked green with grapes. Lisa liked purple with pears.
What should Julie do? Then she had an idea. She made a rainbow cake and decorated（装饰）each part of the cake with different fruits. At the party, after all the fun, games, and parents, everybody sat down at the table. When the mother took the big beautiful cake out, everyone said "wow" at the same time. The father lit five birthday candles, each for a girl. Then the mother and father and all their friends sang Happy Birthday song. After that the birthday girls blew out the candles together. Then they ate the birthday cake happily, and every kind of cake was very, very delicious.
