+ 加入清单Halloween
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 childs 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 neighbors 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 peoples holiday — and the younger the child the more exciting he finds it.
万圣节前夜
10月31日,当一轮满月从空中升起的时候,小妖精、妖魔鬼怪、恐怖的巫婆、小捣蛋鬼——孩子们把小脸蛋藏在奇形怪状的面具后——会突然出现在朋友及邻居面前,并威吓着说:“不给糖,要倒霉。”
万圣节前夜,顾名思义,就是仅一个晚上的节日。在一年中的这一夜,孩子们的心灵充满了单纯的梦幻奇境。他们是节日的主人,而父母或其他大人只能起陪衬作用。在老师和商人的鼓励下,在前一年欢度万圣节前夜的美好回忆的诱惑下,孩子们(3至11岁)几星期前便开始准备服装和节日装饰了。虽然家长往往都要帮助孩子们准备服装,但在节日那晚,他们一定要装出一副被突然出现的带面具的鬼怪吓着了的样子。那时,会有穿着黑色长袍、戴着尖尖高帽子的小巫婆出现,她们乘着神扫帚飞过屋顶,飞到临街邻居的屋顶上;还会有披着床单的鬼怪出现,他们边跑边露着帆布鞋和短袜子;还有那可怕的海盗,他们戴着绘有骸髅及交叉的大腿骨的三角帽。有的孩子手提用南瓜刻成的人面形灯笼,但每个孩子都手拿着袋子或联合国儿童基金会发的盒子,上面写着:“不给糖,要倒霉。”很快,这些袋子、盒子里便都装满了糖果。
十几岁的孩子玩那些恶作剧的游戏,有时使大人们相当为难。他们向过往的车辆扔鸡蛋或西红柿;往玻璃窗、汽车挡风玻璃上涂抹难以擦掉的蜡;把南瓜滚下长长的山路;搬走门廊里的家具;偷走垃圾箱盖;在篱笆上乱涂乱写,到处惹是生非;这样来消耗掉他们多余的精力。警察虽然警惕性很高,但也只能逮捕那些真正的犯罪者。在许多社区人们举办交际舞会或街区晚会,以分散那些搞恶作剧的年轻人的精力。会后由商业界为最佳服装颁发奖品。虽然文艺指导帮助策划晚会,但是年轻人都亲自负责组织活动和动手装饰,这些是万圣节前夜的必可不少的一部分。晒干的玉米秆、用南瓜雕刻成的人脸以及一堆堆的苹果,使晚会增加了丰收的气氛;用各种东西雕刻成的乘扫帚的巫婆、妖魔鬼怪和黑猫标志了节日的魔力。晚会上供应的新鲜食品——苹果酒、爆米花、南瓜馅饼以及制成巫婆形的辣姜饼——既增加了丰收的气氛,又标志了节日的魔力。
万圣节前夜偶尔也有成年人的舞会,舞台背景为鲜艳的橙色和黑色,舞场上还舞动着用纸做成的黑猫、巫婆及龇牙咧嘴的骷髅。尽管如此,万圣节前夜主要是孩子们的节日—一孩子越小,就越兴奋。

A well—known Halloween tradition is to make lanterns from pumpkins, called "Jack—o—lanterns"。 First, the inside of the pumpkin is removed。 Then, a face is cut into the pumpkin, traditionally a smiling, devil face。 Finally a candle is placed inside, and the lantern is put at the front of the house to keep evil spirits away。
Besides pumpkin cutting, "apple—bobbing" is another popular game。 Several apples are put floating in water in a big bucket。 Children have their hands tied behind their backs。 They have to try to pick the apples out of the water using only their mouths。 Of course, people get very wet and it is very funny to watch。

+ 加入清单The American tradition of "trick-or-treating" probably dates back to the early All Souls Day parades in England. During the festivities, poor citizens would beg for food and families would give them pastries called "soul cakes" in return for their promise to pray for the familys dead relatives.
The distribution of soul cakes was encouraged by the church as a way to replace the ancient practice of leaving food and wine for roaming spirits. The practice, which was referred to as "going a-souling" was eventually taken up by children who would visit the houses in their neighborhood and be given ale, food, and money.
The tradition of dressing in costume for Halloween has both European and Celtic roots. Hundreds of years ago, winter was an uncertain and frightening time. Food supplies often ran low and, for the many people afraid of the dark, the short days of winter were full of constant worry. On Halloween, when it was believed that ghosts came back to the earthly world, people thought that they would encounter ghosts if they left their homes. To avoid being recognized by these ghosts, people would wear masks when they left their homes after dark so that the ghosts would mistake them for fellow spirits. On Halloween, to keep ghosts away from their houses, people would place bowls of food outside their homes to appease the ghosts and prevent them from attempting to enter.

+ 加入清单The Taditional Halloween
Halloween originated as a celebration connected with evil spirits. Witches flying on broomsticks with ghosts, goblins and skeletons have all evolved as symbols of Halloween. Bats, owls and other nocturnal animals are also popular symbols of Halloween. They were originally feared because people believed that these creatures could communicate with the spirits of the dead.
Black cats are also symbols of Halloween and have religious origins as well. Black cats were considered to be reincarnated beings with the ability to divine the future. During the Middle Ages it was believed that witches could turn themselves into black cats. Thus when such a cat was seen, it was considered to be a witch in disguise. All these are popular trick-or-treat costumes and decorations for greeting cards and windows.
Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night.
Pumpkins are also a symbol of Halloween. The pumpkin is an orange-colored squash, and orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Carving pumpkins into jack- o-lanterns is a Halloween custom also dating back to Ireland. A legend grew up about a man named Jack who was so stingy that he was not allowed into heaven when he died, because he was a miser. He couldnt enter hell either because he had played jokes on the devil. As a result, Jack had to walk on the earth with his lantern until Judgement Day. So Jack and his lantern became the symbol of a lost or damned soul. To scare these souls away on Halloween, the Irish people carved scary faces out of turnips, beets or potatoes representing "Jack of the Lantern", or Jack-o-lantern. When the Irish brought their customs to the United States, they carved faces on pumpkins because in the autumn they were more plentiful than turnips. Today jack-o-lanterns in the windows of a house on Halloween night let costumed children know that there are goodies waiting if they knock and say "Trick or Treat!"

十月是女巫,幽灵,鬼魂和一切让人不寒而栗的东西出现的旺季,因为10月31日是万圣节。
Ursprünglich, vor Hunderten von Jahren, war Halloween ein Herbstfest der Druiden im alten England. Es sei die einzige Nacht des Jahres, so glaubten die Menschen damals, in der Hexen und Geister leibhaftig auf der Erde herumspukten.
起初在几百年前,万圣节在古英格兰对巫师们来说是秋天节。那时人们认为,这一天晚上是一年当中唯一一个女巫和鬼魂真的来到人间到处作祟的夜晚。
Fast jedes Kind weiß, dass Halloween etwas mit Gespenstern, Hexen und Verkleiden zu tun hat, aber kaum jemand hat eine Ahnung, was es mit dem Fest ‚Halloween’ nun wirklich auf sich hat.
几乎每个孩子都知道,万圣节与幽灵,女巫和化装有关,但是几乎没有一个人知道,万圣节这个节日究竟因何而来。
Schon vor über 2000 Jahren feierten die Kelten im alten England (heute sagen wir Großbritannien dazu) zum Ende des Sommers ein großes Fest – damals hieß es noch ‚Samhain’. Der 31. Oktober war bei den Kelten der letzte Tag des Jahres, denn sie hatten einen anderen Kalender als wir heute. Der Sommer wurde mit großen Feuern verabschiedet und gleichzeitig der Winter begrüßt. Die Menschen bedankten sich bei ihrem Sonnengott (mit Namen ‚Samhain’) für die Ernte, die sie in der warmen Jahreszeit eingebracht hatten und gedachten an diesem Tag auch der Seelen der Verstorbenen. Der Sonnengott wurde nun, zu Beginn der dunklen Winterzeit von dem keltischen Gott der Toten, abgelöst.
早在两千多年前,古英格兰(今天的大不列颠)的克勒特人在夏季结束时会进行一场盛大的节日庆祝——那时这个节日叫做“萨温节”。对于克勒特人来说,10月31日是一年的最后一天,因为他们使用的年历与我们今天的不同。人们燃起大火告别夏季,同时欢迎冬季的到来。他们向太阳神(名字为“Samhain”)表示感谢,感谢其赐予的温暖季节带来丰收,同时也在这一天悼念逝者的亡灵。而后太阳神就在阴暗的冬天开始之时被克勒特人的死亡之神所替代。
Die Kelten glaubten fest daran, dass die Seelen der Verstorbenen in der Nacht vom 31. Oktober als Geister auf die Erde zurückkommen, um in ihre Häuser zurückzukehren. Aber was war mit den Geistern und heimatlosen Seelen, die trotz der großen Feuer, die am Wegesrand entfacht wurden, den Weg nicht fanden und verzweifelt umherirrten? Von ihnen war nichts Gutes zu erwarten, sie spukten durch die Nacht, erschreckten friedliche Menschen und trieben ihr Unwesen mit ihnen.
克勒特人坚信,逝者的亡灵在10月31日会变成鬼魂来到人间,回到自己家中。但是那些即使在路边点着旺火却也找不到路而绝望地四处乱走的鬼魂和无家可归的亡灵怎么办呢?别指望他们做什么好事,他们会整晚捣乱作祟,惊吓平和中的人们,到处胡作非为。
Einige Jahrhunderte später, ungefähr 800 Jahre n. Chr., ernannte der Papst den 1. November, also den Tag nach dem 31. Oktober, zum Feiertag ‚Allerheiligen’, an dem der christlichen Märtyrer gedacht wurde. Aus dem Samhain- Fest wurde im Laufe der Zeit ‚das Fest am Vorabend zu Allerheiligen’, und das heißt auf englisch ‚All Hallows’ Evening’ oder abgekürzt ‚Hallows’ E’en’. Inzwischen sagen wir Halloween.
几百年后,大约公元800年的时候,罗马教皇将11月1日,也就是10月31日后一天,作为“万圣”之节,在这一天人们会怀念基督教的烈士。随着时间的推移,英国人根据萨温节就把11月1日的前夜变成了庆祝万圣的节日,而英语里万圣夜称作“All Hallows’ Evening”,简称Hallows’ E’en。渐渐地我们就把万圣节叫做了Halloween。
Obwohl das Samhain-Fest schon so lange her ist, verkleiden sich die Kinder heute noch als gruselige Gestalten, wie Gespenster, Hexen, Zauberer oder Vampire, um Geister abzuschrecken. Und das ist auch gut so – denn wer weiß denn schon genau, ob die Kelten im alten England nicht doch recht hatten......?
虽然萨温节已如此古老,今天的孩子们还会装扮成毛骨悚然的形象,像是幽灵,女巫,男巫或是吸血鬼去吓退鬼魂。不过这样也不错——谁又清楚地知道,古英格兰的克勒特人是不是有道理呢?

+ 加入清单When we think of Halloween, we think of "Trick or treat", pumpkins, Jack o lanterns, vampires and haunted houses. But do you know the origin of Halloween? Why does it fall on 31 October? What kind of festival is it? Why is it so creepy?
Halloween dates back to a Celtic festival called Samhain. November 1 is the new year of the Celts, who lived in Europe more than a thousand years ago. This is the day which marked the end of summer and harvest. The Celts believed that on the night of October 31, ghosts of the dead would return to earth. The Celts celebrated Samhain by dressing up in costumes with animal heads and having bonfires. Many Celts settled in Britain and Ireland, where the festival became popular. Those who moved to America took the tradition with them.
Nowadays, most people celebrate Halloween but only for fun. They are not worried about ghosts. Kids in America will dress up as devils or angels and will go from house to house calling "Trick or treat", playing mischievous tricks and getting sweets. Americans spend more money on Halloween than Christmas! In 2005, more than HK$45 billion was spent on Halloween. And HK$15 billion of that was spent on candy alone!!!
Kids in Britain also dress up at Halloween. They visit houses, sing songs or tell a joke to get sweets. Many go to Halloween parties and play games like "ducking for apples". You must pick up an apple in water but you can only use your mouth. Try it!

要糖是万圣节有趣的传统活动之一。于是今天我在学校开完派对后就急忙赶回了家,打扮成女巫的样子,拎上一个篮子,叫上另外几个朋友出去要糖。
我们走到了第一个人家门前,犹豫了很长时间要不要去按门铃。最后我还是去按了。我们都很紧张,不知道那个人会是什么反应。过了大概有5分钟,我们正要走,门开了。我们只好大声喊:“trick or treat!!!”(不给糖就捣乱)那个人对我们说“哦!!!!!!!!!!是万圣节来要糖啦!不过我们没有糖,给你们一人5毛钱行吧。”我们高高兴兴地走了。(成功)
我们又去另一家要糖。这家可坏,把门开了一个小缝,听见我们是来要糖的以后就“砰”的一下把门关上了。不是说不给糖就捣乱吗?于是我们用粉笔在那家人门上画了一个大大的骷髅头。(失败)
我们去了第三家。 这家开了门以后听见我们要糖又把门关了。我们正准备画骷髅的时候门又开了。我们赶紧把粉笔藏起来。那个人说“我刚才去柜子里翻了翻,找到了一包糖,你们3个人分了吧。”我们高兴地说了一声谢谢,拿着那包糖分去了。(成功)
随后我们又去了很多家要糖,一直要到11点,我才拎着满满的带子回家。
篇15:万圣节手抄报英语内容Halloween
全文共 4433 字
+ 加入清单The word itself, "Halloween," actually has its origins in the Catholic Church. It comes from a contracted corruption of All Hallows Eve. November 1, "All Hollows Day" (or "All Saints Day"), is a Catholic day of observance in honor of saints. But, in the 5th century BC, in Celtic Ireland, summer officially ended on October 31. The holiday was called Samhain (sow-en), the Celtic New year.
One story says that, on that day, the disembodied spirits of all those who had died throughout the preceding year would come back in search of living bodies to possess for the next year. It was believed to be their only hope for the afterlife. The Celts believed all laws of space and time were suspended during this time, allowing the spirit world to intermingle with the living.
Naturally, the still-living did not want to be possessed. So on the night of October 31, villagers would extinguish the fires in their homes, to make them cold and undesirable. They would then dress up in all manner of ghoulish costumes and noisily paraded around the neighborhood, being as destructive as possible in order to frighten away spirits looking for bodies to possess.
Probably a better explanation of why the Celts extinguished their fires was not to discourage spirit possession, but so that all the Celtic tribes could relight their fires from a common source, the Druidic fire that was kept burning in the Middle of Ireland, at Usinach.
Some accounts tell of how the Celts would burn someone at the stake who was thought to have already been possessed, as sort of a lesson to the spirits. Other accounts of Celtic history debunk these stories as myth.
The Romans adopted the Celtic practices as their own. But in the first century AD, Samhain was assimilated into celebrations of some of the other Roman traditions that took place in October, such as their day to honor Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit and trees. The symbol of Pomona is the apple, which might explain the origin of our modern tradition of bobbing for apples on Halloween.
The thrust of the practices also changed over time to become more ritualized. As belief in spirit possession waned, the practice of dressing up like hobgoblins, ghosts, and witches took on a more ceremonial role.
The custom of Halloween was brought to America in the 1840s by Irish immigrants fleeing their countrys potato famine. At that time, the favorite pranks in New England included tipping over outhouses and unhinging fence gates.
The custom of trick-or-treating is thought to have originated not with the Irish Celts, but with a ninth-century European custom called souling. On November 2, All Souls Day, early Christians would walk from village to village begging for "soul cakes," made out of square pieces of bread with currants. The more soul cakes the beggars would receive, the more prayers they would promise to say on behalf of the dead relatives of the donors. At the time, it was believed that the dead remained in limbo for a time after death, and that prayer, even by strangers, could expedite a souls passage to heaven.
The Jack-o-lantern custom probably comes from Irish folklore. As the tale is told, a man named Jack, who was notorious as a drunkard and trickster, tricked Satan into climbing a tree. Jack then carved an image of a cross in the trees trunk, trapping the devil up the tree. Jack made a deal with the devil that, if he would never tempt him again, he would promise to let him down the tree.
According to the folk tale, after Jack died, he was denied entrance to Heaven because of his evil ways, but he was also denied access to Hell because he had tricked the devil. Instead, the devil gave him a single ember to light his way through the frigid darkness. The ember was placed inside a hollowed-out turnip to keep it glowing longer.
The Irish used turnips as their "Jacks lanterns" originally. But when the immigrants came to America, they found that pumpkins were far more plentiful than turnips. So the Jack-O-Lantern in America was a hollowed-out pumpkin, lit with an ember.
So, although some cults may have adopted Halloween as their favorite "holiday," the day itself did not grow out of evil practices. It grew out of the rituals of Celts celebrating a new year, and out of Medieval prayer rituals of Europeans. And today, even many churches have Halloween parties or pumpkin carving events for the kids. After all, the day itself is only as evil as one cares to make it.

每年的11月01日是西方传统的“鬼节”——万圣节。10月31日是万圣节前夕.通常叫做万圣节前夜.不过这一天的气氛却远不像它的名称那样让人听上去就“毛骨悚然”。每当万圣节到来,孩子们都会迫不及待地穿上五颜六色的化妆服,戴上千奇百怪的面具,提着一盏“杰克灯”走家窜户,向大人们索要节日的礼物。万圣节最广为人知的象征也正是这两样——奇异的“杰克灯”和“表演魔术或者给糖果”的恶作剧。
“杰克灯”的样子十分可爱,做法也极为简单。将南瓜掏空,然后在外面刻上笑眯眯的眼睛和大嘴巴,再在瓜中插上一支蜡烛,把它点燃,人们在很远的地方便能看到这张憨态可掬的笑脸。这可是孩子们最喜欢的玩物了。
然而万圣节的重头戏还是在餐桌上,你既要准备好美食来招待那些前来捣乱的“小鬼”,更要在这个特别的节日为你的餐桌装扮一番。千万不要让你的客人们小瞧了你哦!
一年中最“闹鬼”这天夜里,各种妖魔鬼怪、海盗、外星来客和巫婆们纷纷出动。在基督纪元以前,凯尔特人在夏未举行仪式感激上苍和太阳的恩惠。当时的占卜者点燃并施巫术以驱赶据说在四周游荡的妖魔怪。后来罗马人用果仁和苹果来庆祝的丰收节与凯尔特人的10月31日溶合了。在中世纪,人们穿上动物造型的服饰、戴上可怕的面具是想在万圣节前夜驱赶黑夜中的鬼怪。尽管后来基督教代替了凯尔特和罗马的宗教活动,早期的习俗还是保留下来了。现在,孩子们带着开玩笑的心理穿戴上各种服饰和面具参加万圣节舞会,这些舞会四周的墙上往往悬挂着用纸糊的巫婆、黑猫、鬼怪和尸骨,窗前和门口则吊着龇牙裂嘴或是面目可憎的南瓜灯笼。孩子们还常常试图咬住悬挂着的苹果。

+ 加入清单Children in costumes race from house to house asking for treats. A carved pumpkin, called a jack-o-lantern, grins from a porch as the children pass. According to legend, jack-o-lanterns protect people in their homes from ghostly spirits.
Its all part of the fun on Halloween! The roots of Halloween stretch back thousands of years and borrow customs from several parts of the world.
Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31. By tradition, Halloween begins after sunset. Long ago, people believed that witches gathered together and ghosts roamed the world on Halloween. Today, most people no longer believe in ghosts and witches. But these supernatural beings are still a part of Halloween.
The colors black and orange are also a part of Halloween. Black is a symbol for night and orange is the color of pumpkins. A jack-o-lantern is a hollowed-out pumpkin with a face carved on one side. Candles are usually placed inside, giving the face a spooky glow.
Dressing in masks and costumes is a popular Halloween activity. Costumes can be traditional and scary, such as a witchs pointy hat and black gown. Costumes may also have a modern flavor. Many children dress up as movie characters or a favorite superhero.
But Halloween is not just for children. Many adults enjoy showing off their costumes at Halloween parties!
Once in costume, children go from house to house saying Trick or treat! In the past, children might play a trick on people who did not give treats. They might pelt houses with eggs or old tomatoes, or play other pranks. Today, childrens cries of Trick or treat! are usually rewarded with candy.
One of the oldest Halloween traditions comes from the ancient Celts, who lived in western and central Europe long ago. The Celts celebrated a holiday
y called Sa amhain on October 31. After sunset that day, people believed that spirits of the dead would rise and walk the earth. The Celts made offerings of food and drink to keep the spirits away.
Beginning about 2,000 years ago, the Roman Empire conquered many Celtic peoples. But Celtic traditions, including Samhain, remained strong in areas such as Ireland and Scotland, even after the Roman conquest.
The Roman Catholic Church tried to replace Samhain in 835 with All Saints Day, a day to honor saints of the Church. The eve of All Saints Day is October 31. It is called Allhallows or Hallowmas by the Church.
Halloween first 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 Halloweens popularity.
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.
