What is the main ocean of this passage: Fireworks are a class of explosive pyrotechnic devices used for aesthetic, cultural, and

religious purposes. The most common use of a firework is as part of a fireworks display. A fireworks event (also called a fireworks show or pyrotechnics) is a display of the effects produced by firework devices. Fireworks competitions are also regularly held at a number of places. Fireworks take many forms to produce the four primary effects: noise, light, smoke, and floating materials (confetti, for example). They may be designed to burn with flames and sparks of many colors, typically red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and silver. Displays are common throughout the world and are the focal point of many cultural and religious celebrations.
The earliest documentation of fireworks dates back to 7th-century China, where they were invented. The fireworks were used to accompany many festivities. The use of fireworks is a part of the culture of China and had its origin there; eventually it spread to other cultures and societies. The art and science of firework-making has developed into an independent profession. In China, pyrotechnicians were respected for their knowledge of complex techniques in mounting fireworks displays.

During the Song Dynasty (960–1279), many of the common people could purchase various kinds of fireworks from market vendors, and grand displays of fireworks were also known to be held. In 1110, a large fireworks display was included in a martial demonstration held to entertain Emperor Huizong of Song (r. 1100–1125) and his court. A record from 1264 states that a rocket-propelled firework went off near the Empress Dowager Gong Sheng and startled her during a feast held in her honor by her son Emperor Lizong of Song (r. 1224–1264).

Discuss why choosing wrong friends may subject you to unrealistic life expectations resulting in conflict with your family.​
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: Choosing the wrong friends impacts your life in many ways.

Explanation:

The people we hang out with shows what type of life we are living. If you hang out with friends who steal and do more crime related stuff you will most likely not be successful in life. If we hang out with people who are smarter than us we will be more successful in life because they will give us experience. It is best to hang out with older, smarter people because they have experience and they don't.
