In the United States and Canada, a prom, short for promenade, is a formal dance, or getting together of high school students.It is always held near the end of the junior and/or senior year.It is a major event among high school students.High school juniors taking part in the prom may call it Junior Prom while high school seniors may call it Senior Prom.In fact, it is always a dance for both juniors and seniors.
At prom, a Prom Queen and Prom King may be showed.Other students may be honored to take part in a "Prom Court".Prom Queen and Prom King are honorary titles (荣誉称号) given to students who are chosen in a school-wide vote (投票) before the prom.Whether you can be a member in a Prom Court is due to the popularity of those chosen and their level of participation in school activities including sports.This honor is usually given to seniors.In addition to Prom Queen and Prom King, juniors may also be honored, but would be called "Prom Prince" or "Prom Princess".
The British would call it Leavers’ Ball or Leavers’ Dinner formally, or informally, Leavers’ Do.This is closer to the Australian description, although in the UK, some schools have called the above events proms.In Canada, Ireland and Australia the terms Grad or Formal are most commonly used and the event is usually held for those graduating high school or middle school.In Ireland, the event is also known as the Debs, which is derived (源自) from Debutante.
What can we learn about the prom from the last paragraph?
选项
A、French call it Leavers’ Do.
B、British call it Leavers’ Ball.
C、Australians call it Grad.
D、Canadians call it Debs.
答案
B
解析
根据文章最后一段第一句可知,英国人称它是毕业生舞会或毕业生晚宴,或者称它是毕业生活动。故B)为正确答案。
