2. Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans
celebrate every year. It means “holy evening” ( 神圣的
夜晚 ) , and it comes every October 31 , the
evening before All Saints Day ( 万圣节 ).
INTRODUCE
3. For the ancient ( 古代的 ) celtic ( 塞尔特 ) peoples , the new year
was celebrated on november 1st of every year. This date marked
the end of summer and beginning of winter.
This day of year was often associated with human death.
The ctsel believed that on the night before the new year ,the
boundary ( 界边 ) between the worlds of the living and dead
became blurred ( 模糊 ) as the dead searched for the afterlife ( 来
世 ).
5. Trick-or-treating is for
children on or around
Halloween in which they
proceed form house to
house in costumes , asking
for treats such as ( 糖果 )
confectionery with the
question , ” trick or
treat?” the “trick” part of
“trick or treat” is an idle
threat to play a trick on
the homeowners or their
property if no treat is
given.
6. Jack-o’-lanterns
Many years ago, there was a human
named Jake who lived in Ireland. He
liked to play pranks [ 作恶 剧 ]. One day,
he deceived [ 欺骗 ] the devil.
Jack asked the devil to climb
a tree and carve an image
of a cross[ 十字架 ] in the
tree’s trunk; trapping the
devil up the tree.
Eventually he
made a deal with the devil and released
him.
7. Eventually, when jack did die ,god would not take him
into heaven, and the devil, who had promised not to
claim jack’s soul , could not take him into hell. Thus,
the devil sent jack’s soul into the night with only a
burning candle to light his way. Jack put the candle
into a carved out turnip and has been roaming( 漫游 )
the earth ever since. The Irish began to refer to this
ghostly figure as “jack of the lantern” and
then simply as “jack-o-lantern”.
8. Foods
Because the holiday comes in the wake of the
annual apple harvest, candy
apples(also known as
toffee or taffy apples)
are a common
halloween treat
made by rolling whole
apples in a stricky sugar
syrup ,and sometimes rolling
them in nuts.Candy apples were commonly given
to children.
