Halloween used to be a time for kids. In the past, the festival meant houses decorated with jack-o-lanterns, cool costumes(化装服)handmade by mums, and going door to door asking for candy, saying “trick or treat.”
However, you wouldn’t have seen any of these if you were at this year’s Halloween events in Shibuya, Tokyo, from Oct 27 to 30. Halloween in Japan has become a big party for adults, who dress up in costumes and hang around having fun taking pictures. In other words, this festival is no longer just a time for kids.
As USA Today editor Bruce Horovitz wrote, “Adults have slowly been stealing Halloween from kids.” But “steal” is not quite the word, since the adults of today all used to be kids themselves. These grown-ups still manage to keep the tradition of dressing up alive, however, even if they’re too old to knock on strangers’ doors for candy now.
Some companies even encourage their employees to wear costumes to work so they can relax and enjoy their share of the festival fun. “You can wear whatever you want and not be judged,” Denise Delahorne of DDB Worldwide, an advertising company, told Forbes when asked why adults are so into Halloween compared to other holidays. “There’s no pressure(压力)to it. You don’t have to travel or deal with relatives. There’s no holiday pressure to find a date if you are single.”
But here comes the interesting part: As the “adult Halloween” industry gets bigger and bigger, movie theatres, drink sellers and haunted houses are starting to aim(瞄准)at adult customers only. There’s even an Halloween trade show in the US every year that you can’t even enter if you’re under 16.
That isn’t good news for kids, but on the bright side, at least young people can still get free candy. And what could be better than that
1. Why are adults so fond of Halloween
A. They would be treated like kids.
B. They don’t need to care for their relatives.
C. They feel happy and relaxed during Halloween.
D. They can get free goods from the “adult Halloween” industry.
2. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. Work B. Halloween. C. Being single. D. Another holiday.
3. What did some companies encourage their workers to do during Halloween
A. Wear cool costumes to work.
B. Join the Halloween trade show.
C. Knock on strangers’ doors for candy.
D. Decorate their houses with jack-o-lanterns.
4. What’s the best title for the text
A. Different Activities to Celebrate Halloween
B. How to Spend Halloween in Japan
C. Halloween Customs and Traditions
D. Adult Halloween Lovers Take Over
