Halloween is a strange holiday. It started several centuries ago in Europe. It began as “Hallow Evening” meaning “holy night”. At that time, November 1st was called “All Saints' Day” and people honoured all the saints who did not have their own special day. People believed that October 31st was the time when all the evil spirits were supposed to be active. So people would play all sorts of pranks on each other.
Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night. Pumpkins are a symbol of Halloween, so orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Making lanterns out of pumpkins is a Halloween custom.
Halloween is great fun for children. They dress up as ghosts (鬼)or witches (女巫). Small children go trick or treating. They wear costumes, knock on doors and shout, “Trick or treat！” People almost always choose to give them candy as a treat, instead of choosing to receive a trick from the children. Adults sometimes “trick or treat” their friends, too. Usually the “treat” is a glass of wine or some small gifts.

Ⅸ. 范文:
The Double Ninth Festival is a traditional Chinese festival. On that day, people usually climb mountains and go outing with their family. It's also a day to show respect to the old.
As a teenager, I try my best to do what I can to be nice to the old. I often visit my grandparents on weekends, talk to them and cheer them up. I also help them with the housework. Meanwhile, I am polite to the old. When I see them on the bus, I always offer them my seat. Moreover, I volunteer to look after the old who live alone in our neighborhood. I help them carry heavy things when they need help.
I think it's very important to respect the old because they have done a lot to their family and to the country. One day, we will all be old.
