Halloween is very popular in western countries. On October 31st, dozens of children dressed in costumes(節(jié)日服裝)knock on their neighborsdoors and yell“Trick or Treat”when the door opens. Pirates (海盜) and princesses, ghosts and popular heroes of the day all hold bags open to catch the candy or other goodies(好吃的東西) 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.
Today school dances and neighborhood parties called“block parties”are popular among the young and the old. More and more adults celebrate Halloween. They dress up like historical or political figures and go to masquerade parties(化妝舞會(huì)). 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(離譜) the costume, the better!
Certain pranks(惡作?。﹕uch 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.

練習(xí)二:讀寫任務(wù)
閱讀下面短文,然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
Today is my 18th birthday, which means that from now on, I am an adult, so it is very fresh for me. I can not forget the happiness and love that my family and friends have given me. To show their love and affection, they held a great ceremony for me at home, and also sent me many kinds of presents, which have left me with great memories.
However, the most unforgettable thing is a small gift from my English teacher, Jesse. This morning, after class, Jesse approached me and said“Happy Birthday and here is a card for you”. After thanking him, I carefully opened it.
“Dear Liu Feng,
I sincerely hope the 18th birthday will bring you great happiness all through your life. I have been with you for almost one year, and I find you are a good boy. You are working hard and doing fine in your study, and also Id like you to have a little change in yourself. Since last month, when you failed in the exam, you have become shy and passive; you seem to have closed your world from others and hesitate to be together with them, which I think is not good for you. To adapt yourself to your future college and social life, find yourself an active life!
Yours, Jesse”
Reading this, I was moved to tears...
