Question

Halloween falls on October 31st. It is one of the most favourite holidays for children in the USA． People dress up in costumes （化妝服裝）like a witch （巫婆）, a ghost （鬼）or a skeleton （枯髏）. The children go to houses to say “Trick or treat!” Long ago, if a child was not good, he or she would get a trick like having a stone in his or her bag instead of some candy.
