Read Sumit's speech and group the statements.

"Hello.

Today, I'm going to talk to you about an important festival in my country, India. In late

autumn, we celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Lights. Diwali lasts five days. Before the

festival, the whole family makes some preparations. We put up colourful decorations in

our homes and children make special festive lamps. On that day we visit relatives, we have

festive meals and we exchange gifts. In the evening, we light our Diwali lamps and we pray

to Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Finally, there is an exciting fireworks display. Everybody has a great time.

Thank you for listening."
