　　【Some popular Halloween activities一些受歡迎的萬(wàn)圣節活動(dòng)】

　　【Pumpkin lanterns南瓜燈】

　　Pumpkins are on salein shops and supermarkets from as early as the beginning of October.

　　By the last week of October you can see pumpkin lanterns everywhere in shop windows and in people's houses.

　　Although British people used to use potatoes and turnips, now they use pumpkins to make Jack-o-lanterns unique to the Halloween season.

　　The name“Jack-o-lantern"comes from an Irish folktale about a man named Stingy Jack who, because of his bad nature, was doomed to roam the earth without a resting place and with only his lit lantern to light the way in the darkness.

　　【Trick or treating不給糖果就搗亂】

　　Children love this game! They dress up and then knock on the doors of people's houses in their neighbourhood asking for a ‘trick or treat’.

　　The neighbour gives them chocolates, sweets or money as a ‘treat’.

　　If there is no treat, the children play a trick on the neighbour, for example, they might throw soap at the window.

　　It only happens once a year so even the stingiest adultsmightgive something to the kids as a treat!

　　【Halloween parties萬(wàn)圣節派對】

　　Across the UK, people throw parties to celebrate Halloween. The biggest Halloween party has to be in Sheffield at the end of October.

　　A lot of people go there to experience Fright Night. Can you image a party with about 40,000 people?

　　There are activities for people of all ages: fancy dress catwalk, urban dance, a monster in a fountain and a zombie garden, as well as the traditional apple bobbing and a competition for the best pumpkin lantern.

　　【Apple bobbing咬蘋(píng)果】

　　This is a fun and competitive game which is very traditional. What you do is to place lots of apples in a large tub or a bowl of water - not too cold or too hot.

　　This is because the participants or competitors have to take a bite from one of the apples without using their hands.

　　Sometimes the participants are blindfolded, just to make it even more challenging and fun.

　　【萬(wàn)圣節英語(yǔ)故事：可以出去“鬼”混嗎?】

　　Two-thirds of parents say their children will trick-or-treat this Halloween, but fewer minorities will let their kids go door to door, with some citing safety worries, a poll shows.

　　The survey found that 73 percent of whites versus 56 percent of minorities said their children will trick-or-treat on Wednesday.

　　That disparity in the survey is similar to the difference in how people view the safety of their neighborhoods, according to the poll by The Associated Press and Ipsos. Lower-income people and minorities are more likely to worry that it might not be safe to send their children out on Halloween night.

　　Ninety-one percent of whites, compared with 75 percent of minorities, said they felt their kids would be secure when they went out seeking candy in their area.

　　Similarly, 93 percent of people earning $50,000 or more said their communities are safe for trick-or-treating, compared with 76 percent of those making less than $25,000.

　　Nearly two-thirds of the people in the survey said their households will distribute Halloween treats to children who come to call; the likeliest to pass out goodies include younger and higher-earning people.

　　Seventy percent of people in the poll who consider themselves liberals and 67 percent of the moderates questioned said they would hand out treats, compared with 55 percent of conservatives.

　　Of those adults whose children will not trick-or-treat this year, one-quarter cited safety worries and about a half said they do not celebrate Halloween.

　　"It's demonic," said Donna Stitt, 37, a nursing aide from Barto, Pa., with four young children. "People are celebrating the dead. I'm not into that."

　　Last October, a Gallup Poll found 11 percent said they do not celebrate Halloween for religious reasons.
