Next to Christmas,Halloween is the most commercialized celebration in the United States and Canada.This ancient festival originated far from North America however,and centuries before the first European set foot on the continent.
The ancient Druids 督伊德教(古代高卢人与不列颠人的一种宗教)的教徒 who inhabited what we now call Great Britain placed great importance on the passing of one season to the next,holding "Fire Festivals" which were celebrated for three days (two days on either side of the day itself).
One of these festivals was called Samhain (pronounced Sha-Von) and it took place on October 31 through to November 1.During this period,it was believed that the boundaries between our world and the world of the dead were weakened,allowing spirits of the recently dead to cross over and possess the living.
In order to make themselves and their homes less inviting to these wayward spirits,the ancient Celts(凯尔特人)would douse (插入水中,把弄熄,弄湿)all their fires.There was also a secondary purpose to this,after extinguishing all their fires,they would re-light them from a common source,the Druidic fire that was kept burning at Usinach,in the Middle of Ireland.
Samhain was considered to be a gateway not only from the land of the dead to the land of the living,but also between Summer and Fall/Winter.For the Druids,this was the last gasp (喘息,气喘)of summer (it was also the Celtic New Year),so therefore they made sure it went out with a bang before they had to button down (把...弄清楚)for the winter ahead.
They would dress up in bizarre costumes and parade through their villages causing destruction in order to scare off any recently departed souls who might be prowling (巡游)for bodies to inhabit,in addition to burning animals and other offerings to the Druidic deities(神,神性).It is also a popular belief that they would burn people who they believed to be possessed,but this has largely been debunked (揭穿,拆穿假面具,暴露)as myth.
This yearly festival was adopted by the Roman invaders,who helped to propagate (传播,宣传)it throughout the rest of the world (and at that time,the Roman Empire was the world).The word "Halloween" itself actually comes from a contraction of All Hallows Eve,or All Saint's Day (November 1),which is a Catholic day of observance in honor of saints.
This tradition was later brought to the North American continent by Irish immigrants who were escaping the Potato Famine in their homeland.In addition to the festival itself,the immigrants brought several customs with them,including one of the symbols most commonly associated with Halloween -- the Jack 'O Lantern.
According to Irish folklore,there once lived a man named Jack who was known for being a drunk and a prankster(顽皮的人,爱开玩笑的人).One night Jack tricked the devil into climbing a tree,and quickly carved an image of a cross on the trunk,trapping the devil.Jack then made him promise that,in exchange for letting him out of the tree,the Devil would never tempt him to sin again.He reluctantly agreed,but was able to exact his revenge upon Jack's death.Because of his mischievous ways in life,Jack was barred from entering heaven and because of his earlier trick,he was also barred from hell.So he was doomed to wander the earth until the end of time,with only a single ember(灰烬,余烬) (carried in a hollowed out turnip.[植]芜箐,芜箐甘蓝) to warm him and light his way.
In Ireland,they originally also used turnips for their "Jack Lanterns",but upon arriving in the new world,they discovered that pumpkins were abundant and easier to carve out.
Children like this festival.They wear horrible masks and knock at the doors of their neighbors'.They may ask,"Trick or treat".And peoplewould give them sweets.Otherwise ,the children would play tricks on them.Remember,HALLOWEEN is on October the 31st.
孩子们最喜欢这个节日了.他们戴上恐怖的面具,敲邻居家的门.他们会问恶作剧还是糖果?”人们就会把准备好的糖果拿给他们.否则,孩子就会在他们身上做一些恶作剧.记住,万圣节是在10月31日!
On October 31st,many children dressed in costumes(节日服装)knock on their neighbors' doors and say "Trick or Treat" when the door opens.Pirates and princesses,ghosts and popular heroes of the day all hold bags open to catch the candy or other goodies that the neighbors drop in.As they give each child a treat the neighbors exclaim over the costumes and try to guess who is under the masks.
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.

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.
On October 31st,dozens of children dressed in costumes(节日服装)knock on their neighbors' doors and yell "Trick or Treat" when the door opens.Pirates and princesses,ghosts and popular heroes of the day all hold bags open to catch the candy or other goodies that the neighbors drop in.As they give each child a treat the neighbors exclaim over the costumes and try to guess who is under the masks.
Since the 800's November 1st is a religious holiday known as All Saints' Day(万圣节).The Mass that was said on this day was called Allhallowmas.The evening before became known as All Hakkiw e'en,or Halloween.Like some other American celebrations,its origins lie in both pre-Christian and Christian customs.
October 31 st was the eve of the Celtic(凯尔特人的)new year.The Celts were the ancestors of the present-day Irish,Welsh and Scottish people.On this day ghosts walked and mingled with the living,or so the Celts thought.The townspeople baked food all that day and when night fell they dressed up and tried to resemble the souls of the dead.Hoping that the ghosts would leave peacefully before midnight of the new year.
Much later,when Christianity spread throughout Ireland and October 31 was no longer the last day of the year,Halloween became a celebration mostly for children."Ghosts" went from door to door asking for treats,or else a trick would be played on the owners of the house.When millions of Irish people immigrated to the United States in the 1840s the tradition came with them.
Today' school dances and neighborhood parties called "block parties" are popular among young and old alike.More and more adults celebrate Halloween.They dress up like historical or political figures and go to masquerade parties(化妆舞会).In larger cities,costumed children and their parents gather at shopping malls early in the evening.Stores and businesses give parties with games and treats for the children.Teenagers enjoy costume dances at their schools and the more outrageous the costume the better!
Certain pranks(恶作剧)such as soaping car windows and tipping over garbage cans are expected.But partying and pranks are not the only things that Halloweeners enjoy doing.Some collect money to buy food and medicine for needy children around the world.
