Question
Answer the questions about the dialogue.
Answer
Stuart is looking tired because he stayed up late for a family party that went on into the small hours.
During the week the dad was away on a business trip, the family organized a surprise party for his 50th birthday, contacting relatives and friends.
The dad reacted positively to the surprise; he loved it when he arrived home to find the house full of people, decorations, balloons, and a banner saying 'Happy 50th birthday.'
At the party, they gave a huge cheer, presented dad with a beautiful cake with candles, and celebrated together.
The only problem was that they forgot to get dad a present, but they realized the party itself was an impressive present.
