Halloween
Hey, hey, for Halloween!
Then the witches shall be seen,
Some in black, and some
in green,
Hey, hey, for Halloween!
Слайд 3You should be very careful on the night of October 31. This is
the night when witches and ghosts come out!
Слайд 4Halloween is the most famous of witches' festivals. They ride on brooms through
the midnight air to meet with the Devil. Black cats, their best friends, usually accompany them.
Слайд 5Poor cold ghosts come out of the lonely woods and fields and warm
themselves in people's houses.
Слайд 6Ghosts and witches are not the only ones who come out at Halloween.
From their hiding places come hundreds of demons, skeletons, goblins and other supernatural creatures.
Слайд 7Children in the US, Great Britain and Ireland like Halloween very much
Слайд 8In the weeks before October 31, they decorate the windows of their houses
and schools with pictures of witches, black cats and bats.
Слайд 9They make lanterns out of pumpkins. They are called jack-o'-lanterns.
Слайд 10Black and orange are traditional Halloween colours.
Слайд 11On October 31, children dress up as ghosts and witches, skeletons and Draculas,
and have noisy parties.
Слайд 12Sometimes they go to the people's houses and ring at the door, shouting
"Trick or treat!" The person who opens the door must give the children a treat — some sweets or cookies. If not, the children play a trick on them. For example, they can throw flour at the window or draw a funny picture on the door.
Слайд 13Halloween parties are great fun.
