After the stealing of fire,Zeus became increasingly unkind to men.One day he

ordered his son Hephaestus to build an image of a beautiful maiden out of clay.He then asked the gods and goddesses to award her with different kinds of gifts.A charming young lady,she was the first woman that ever lived.Zeus called her Pandora.Because she had received from each of the gods and goddesses a gift.The gift was harmful to men.

Zeus decided to send her down to men as a present. So Hermes them essenger brought her to Epimetheus, brother of Prometheus. The greatness of her beauty touched the hearts of all who looked upon her, and Epimetheus happily received her into his house. He had quite forgotten Pometheus warning: never to accept anything from Zeus.

When he was busy with teaching men the art of living, Prometheus had left a bigcask in the care of Epimetheus. He had warned his brother not to open the lid. Pandora was a curious woman. She had been feeling very disappointed that her husband did not allow her to take a look at the contents of the cask. One day, when Epimetheus was out, she lifted the lid and out it came unrest and war, Plague and sickness, theft and violence, grief, sorrow, and all the other evils. The human world was hence to experience these evils. Only hope stayed within the mouth of the jar and never flew out. So men always have hope within their hearts.

偷窃天火之后，宙斯对人类的敌意与日俱增。一天，他令儿子赫菲斯托斯用泥塑一美女像，并请众神赠予她不同的礼物。世上的第一个女人是位迷人女郎，因为她从每位神灵那里得到了一样对男人有害的礼物，因此宙斯称她为潘多拉。

宙斯决定把她作为礼物送给世间的男子。于是信使赫耳墨斯将她带给普罗米修斯的弟弟厄庇墨透斯。她姿容绝美，见者无不为之倾心。厄庇墨透斯兴高采烈地把她迎入屋内。普罗米修斯警告过他不得接受宙斯的任何馈赠，而他已将之忘于脑后。这一对夫妻有过一段幸福的生活，但不久灾难却降临人间。

当普罗米修斯忙于教授人们生存之道的时候，他把一个桶托付给厄庇墨透斯。他警告过他的弟

弟不要打开桶盖。潘多拉好奇心强。她的丈夫不允许她看桶中之物，这使她感到十分懊恼。一天乘厄庇墨透斯出门在外，她打开桶盖，从桶里跑出的是不和与战争，瘟疫与疾病，偷窃与暴力，悲哀与忧虑，以及其他一些人类从此要遭受的不幸。只有希望被关在桶口，永远飞不出来，因此人们常常把希望藏于心中。

《DEVILS NIGHT》

Dont go out on Devils Night.

Stay in your bed and keep on the light.

Little demons and ghouls have their fun all right,

outside on the streets this Devils Night.

You dont want to know what mischief they cause.

On Halloween Eve they run without pause,

flying and laughing, and breaking the laws,

you really dont want to see the mischief theyve caused.

Please heed my words, stay under the covers,

and tell your friends and your sisters, and of course your brothers.

Stay in bed, dont even peek through the shutters,

cause a goblin or ghost may spook you to stutters.

Just wait until daybreak on Halloween Day,

when you know all the ghouls and ghosts are away.

They hate the daylight, "its no fun," they say.

So just please, please wait to Trick or Treat on Halloween Day.

Halloween

Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year. It means "holy evening," and it comes every October 31, the evening before All Saints Day. However, it is not really a church holiday, it is a holiday for children mainly.

Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside. It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack-o-lanterns, which means "Jack of the lantern".

The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house. Every time they come to a new house, they say,"Trick or treat! Money or eat!" The grown-ups put treat-money or candy in their bags.

Not only children, but most grown-ups also love Halloween and Halloween parties because on this day,they can disguise themselves as personages or ghost as their imaginations will lead them. This bring them the satisfaction of being young.

万圣节前夕

万圣节前夕是美国人年年都会庆祝的秋季节日。它的意思是“神圣的夜晚”，在每年的10月31日，也就是万圣节前夜。但实际上这不是一个真正的宗教节日，而主要是孩子们的节日。

每年秋天蔬菜成熟可以食用的时候，孩子们就会挑出大个儿的橙色南瓜。然后在南瓜上刻上一张脸，把一根点燃的蜡烛放在里面。看起来就好像有人在向南瓜外面张望。这些灯就叫做“iack-o-lantems”，意思也就是“杰克的灯”。

每年万圣节前夕孩子们还戴上奇怪的面具，穿上吓人的服装。有些孩子把脸刷成怪物。然后他们拿着盒子或袋子挨家挨户串门。每来到一个新房子他们就说：“不款待就捣乱!给钱还是吃的!”大人们就会把用来招待的钱或糖放在他们的袋子里了。

不仅孩子，许多成年人也喜欢万圣节前夕和万圣节前夕晚会。因为这一天他们可以根据自己的想象把自己装扮成名流或幽灵。这会带给他们年轻的快感。

when the harvest moon rises on october 31, little hobgoblins, spooky ghosts, ghoulish witches and gremlins — their young faces hidden behind grotesque masks — will go forth to frighten friends and neighbors and to threaten them with trick or treat .

halloween (aii hallows eve) as the name implies, is a nighttime holiday, the one night in the year when the child‘s world turns to pure fantasy. children take all the lead parts while parents and other adults play the supporting roles. encouraged by teachers and merchants and the remembrance of the good time they had the earlier year, children (from 3 to 11 years old) start preparing their costumes and halloween decorations weeks ahead. although parents help the children very much prepare the costumes, on halloween they must pretend to be frightened by the masked visions that suddenly appear. there will be little witches in long black dresses with tall-pointed hats and magic broomsticks to carry them over the rooftops — to a neighbor‘s house in the next block. ghosts in sheets run with tell-tale sneakers and half socks showing; and terrible pirates with skull and cross-bones painted on their three-cornered hats. some carry jack-o‘-lanterns but all carry bags or unicef boxes marked trick or treat, which fill up very fast.

teenagers have their fun playing tricks that sometimes get rather rough. they throw eggs or tomatoes at passing motorists , mark up windows and windshields with hard-to-erase candle wax, roll pumpkins down long hills, carry away porch furniture and garbage can covers, engrave graffiti on fences, or do whatever bad things occur to them as they go around looking for ways to let off steam. police officers are alert but they only arrest those caught doing real damage. in most communities there are school dances or block parties to help redirect the energies of the youthful pranksters. business firms offer prizes for the best costumes and recreation directors help plan the party, but the young people themselves take charge of the entertainment and the decorations — a necessary part of halloween. dried corn stalks, pumpkin faces, and piles of apples create the harvest atmosphere; and cutouts of witches on their brooms, goblins, ghosts and black cats symbolize the witchcraft aspect of the holiday. the freshments — apple cider, popcorn and pumpkin pie, and witches made of spicy ginger cookies — also carry out both themes.

there is an occasional adult halloween dance in a bright orange and black setting, with paper-made black cats, witches and grinning skeletons floating above the dance floor. but halloween has become mainly a young people‘s holiday — and the younger the child the more exciting he finds it.

Halloweenfirst came to America with early settlers from Celtic areas in Europe, such as Ireland and Scotland. But other American settlers with strict religious beliefs, including the Puritans from England, rejected Halloween. The arrival of many Irish immigrants during the 1800s helped spread Halloween’s popularity.

万圣节第一次来到美国，与来自欧洲的凯尔特地区的早期移民，如爱尔兰和苏格兰。但是其他的美国定居者和严格的宗教信仰，包括来自英国的清教徒，拒绝了万圣节。在19世纪，许多爱尔兰移民的到来帮助传播万圣节的声望。

But by the late 1800s, fewer people believed in ancient superstitions of ghosts and witches. Halloween became more a holiday for children to receive treats and dress in costume.

但到19世纪末，更少的人认为古代迷信的幽灵和巫婆。万圣节成为孩子们的节日去接受款待和穿的服装。

An old story goes that once there were four single men, leading very boring lives. None of them were married, or had lovers, or did anything exciting. They just sat around all day and played Mahjong.

During the game, no matter who won, the winning card was always the four columns card (the card shows four independent, parallel columns in two lines)。 Even more of a coincidence, it was Nov 11, or 11/11. In order to commemorate the day, they nicknamed it "Singles Day".

关于万圣节由来的传说有许多版本，最普遍的认为，那是源于基督诞生前的古西欧国家， 万圣幽灵狗狗。

Legends about the origin of Halloween there are many versions, the most common view, that is derived from the ancient Western European countries before the birth of Christ, Halloween Ghost dog.

主要包括爱尔兰、苏格兰和威尔士，这几处的古西欧人叫凯尔特人。凯尔特的新年在十一月一日，新年前夜，凯尔特人让年轻人集队，戴着各种怪异面具，拎着刻好的萝卜灯(南瓜灯是后期习俗，古西欧最早没有南瓜)，他们游走于村落间。这在当时实则为一种秋收的庆典;也有说是“鬼节”，传说当年死去的人，灵魂会在万圣节的前夜造访人世，据说人们应该让造访的鬼魂看到圆满的收成并对鬼魂呈现出丰盛的款待。所有篝火及灯火，一来为了吓走鬼魂，同时也为鬼魂照亮路线，引导其回归。 在中世纪的中欧，曾有过基督教摧毁异教徒的历史。

Celts new years day in November 1st, Celt on New Years Eve, young people who set team, wearing all kinds of strange mask, carrying a carved turnip lamp (pumpkin is the late customs, the ancient Western Europe pumpkin is not the first), they walk in the villages. This was actually a kind of harvest celebration; also said to be "Halloween", the legend who died that year, the soul will be the eve of Halloween, visit the world, said that people should be allowed to visit the ghost to see the ghost of a successful harvest and show great hospitality. All the bonfire and lights, in order to frighten away the ghost, but also for the ghost light line, to guide their return. In medieval Europe, there had been destroyed by the pagan history of christianity.

可是新年夜前的祭祀庆典从未真正消除，不过以巫术的形式出现。这也就是为什么我们现在的万圣节里，还留有巫婆的扫帚、黑猫、咒语等痕迹。据说当天遇见黑猫，就等于遇见了巫婆，一年都会倒大霉，所以在那天，大家都要乔装打扮，驱走那些不吉利的象征。

But before the new years Eve celebrations never really eliminate worship, but in the form of witchcraft. This is why we are now Halloween, also left the witchs broom, black cat, spells. It is said that the black cat is met, met the witch, a year will be worse, so in that day, everyone will drive out those unlucky symbol.

Han, also known as the Chinese family is the main part of the Chinese nation, for the ancient tribes and culture, descendants of the tribe or Chinese people. The han nationality or a in history has never been interrupted, long, also is the worlds most populous nation.

According to the pre-qin literature records and xia, shang and Zhou Li scope, the ancient ancestors of the han nationality can be generally up long mountain, mount tai in the east and west of Huang Hezhong, downstream for activity area; Are mainly distributed in the area of yangshao culture and longshan culture of these two types of neolithic culture, as the pioneers of the han Chinese ancient cultural relics. The two civilization as the representative of the circle of Chinese civilization.

For the ancestors of the han emperor and yan emperor in the central plains tribe alliance leader and an outbreak of e. springs, yan emperor tribes, incorporated into the huangdi tribe, yanhuang alliance into shape. Later, they defeated here in integration involved problems.the zhuolu war nine li group leader human-god, expand the coalition forces to todays shandong province. And then to yan tribes and huangdi tribe as the main body, and formed a larger part of shandong province here tribe of huaxia tribal alliance, huaxia basic fixed source. Before the 2100-2100 BC in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River descendants of the yellow emperor group has established the xia dynasty, shang dynasty and zhou dynasty.

In 221, before the qin dynasty unified China, huaxia clan from division to unity again. Han the pre-qin period claimed to China, from the beginning of the han dynasty and gradually appear "han" claim. Therefore, huaxia clan has another name: han. But the original title "huaxia" did not disappear, but with the name "han" used together ever since.

According to genetic research compare migration history record of fudan university, the expansion of the han nationality is mainly from north to south in the history of the mobile population. Before the jin han are mainly distributed in the north, and later due to factors such as always fine the disorderly moves southward migration, migrating south han and gene with the han nationality and language different aboriginal mixed in southern China. From north to south in the history of this mass movement has also changed the civil population distribution density.

汉族又名华夏族，是中国的主体民族，为上古时期黄帝部落和炎帝部落的后裔，即炎黄子孙。汉族还是一个在历史上从未中断过的、悠久的民族，也是世界上人口最多的民族。

据先秦文献的记载与夏、商、周立都范围，汉族的远古先民大体以西起陇山、东至泰山的黄河中、下游为活动地区;主要分布在这一地区的仰韶文化和龙山文化这两个类型的新石器文化，为汉族远古先民的文化遗存。这两个文明为华夏文明圈的代表。

汉族的祖先黄帝和炎帝在中原为争夺部落联盟首领而爆发了阪泉之战，炎帝部落战败，并入黄帝部落，炎黄联盟初具雏形。后来他们在涿鹿之战中打败了东夷集团的九黎族首领蚩尤，把联盟势力扩大至今日的山东境内。后又以炎帝部落和黄帝部落为主体，与山东境内的部分东夷部落组成了更庞大的华夏部落联盟，华夏族源基本固定。公元前2100～前770年黄河中下游黄帝集团的后裔先后建立了夏朝、商朝、周朝。

前221年，秦统一中国，华夏族又从分裂走向统一。汉族先秦时期自称华夏，从汉朝开始又逐渐出现“汉”的自称。因此，华夏族有了另一个名字：汉。但原先的称谓“华夏”并没有消失，而是与“汉”这个称谓一起使用至今。

根据复旦大学的基因研究对照历史迁移记录，汉民族的扩张主因是历史上的由北往南的人口移动。在晋朝以前汉族主要分布于中国北方，随后因永嘉之乱等因素大举向南迁徙，南迁汉族则和与汉族基因及语言相异的中国南方原住民混居。这历史上由北往南的大规模移动也改变了南北人口分布密度。

万圣节是西方国家的节日，传说在万圣节那天，会有鬼。所以很多人在家里制作了南瓜头，晚上来吓唬别人;还有小孩在别人家敲门说着：不给糖就捣乱;还有人用电子邮箱发贺卡来祝福……

万圣节是在十一月一日。在西方的国家，一片热闹：

一个叫红红的小女孩正在跟着一群小伙伴们一起到别人家敲门，口里念着：不给糖就捣乱，快给糖果，不然我真的要捣乱啦。那个人的家打开了门，给了小朋友们糖果，嘴里微笑着说：给你们糖果吃，不要捣乱哦，快走吧，去别人家好好地玩，祝你们快乐。红红和小伙伴们到另外一个要糖果吃，嘴里还吃着香香的糖果，对那个叔叔说：不给糖就捣乱，给糖果吃，不然我们就要捣乱哦。可是那个叔叔非但没有给他们糖吃，还骂了他们一顿：“去去去，你们别来捣乱，别去我家要糖果，你们快点滚出去，去别人家要糖果，别到这儿来。”红红和小伙伴们哭了，垂头丧气的走到另一家，“啊!有鬼啊!”“别怕是我。”一个戴着南瓜头的叔叔说道，原来是你啊，小伙伴们和红红红惊呆了，这位吓唬我们的叔叔竟然是不给我们糖的叔叔，那位叔叔见伙伴们和红红很惊讶，解释道：“大家不用怕我，我只是逗你们玩的，来来来，叔叔给你们糖果吃。”小伙伴和红红领了糖果，嘴里一片欢笑。

万圣节虽然有时又会被别人吓，但也可以要糖果吃。
