How to Celebrate Halloween
Gordon: Boo!
Molly: Ahh, you scared me. You sounded just like a ghost!
Gordon: That was my plan.
Molly: You shouldn't scare people, that is rude. Right?
Gordon: But it is almost Halloween. It is fun to scare each other on this fun holiday.
Molly: Isn't Halloween only on October 31?
Gordon: Actually many creative people use the entire month of October to celebrate, get dressed up like a monster, have parties and trick or treat.
Molly: What is Trick or Treat?
Gordon: Sit back and let me explain.
戈登：呜！
莫莉：啊，你吓到我了。你叫得像鬼一样。
戈登：我故意的。
莫莉：你不应该吓唬人，那样很粗鲁，不是吗？
戈登：可是现在快到万圣节了，在万圣节吓唬对方是很有意思的。
莫莉：不是10月31日才是万圣节吗？
戈登：实际上很多人一整个月都在庆祝这个节日。他们穿成鬼怪的样子，开晚会，玩trick or treat游戏。
莫莉：什么是Trick or Treat？
戈登：坐下来我慢慢给你解释。

Gordon: Boo!
Molly : I wasn't scared at all.
Gordon: It is hard to trick you.
Molly : No trick, no treat, maybe next time.
Gordon: Are you going to the party tonight? I heard they will have bobbing for apples and a costume party.
Molly : I may go as a vampire.
Gordon: Great! I will go as a male vampire then we can be Mr. and Mrs. Vampire.
Molly : In your dreams. You should dress up a wolf-man.
Gordon: Why?
Molly : Because you are already so hairy! You look like a wolf. Wow, and your teeth are so big, just like your hairy nose!
Gordon: You just wait until we are around the fire tonight. I will tell a scary story that will shake everyone with fear.
Molly : I hope you won't just tell another story about some old ghost.
Gordon: No, I will tell the story of how a vampire was eaten by a wolf on Halloween...boo!

戈登：呜！
莫莉：我一点儿也不害怕。
戈登：想捉弄你真难。
莫莉：没有恶作剧就没有款待，下次吧。
戈登：你今晚会去参加晚会吗？我听说他们会有漂浮苹果游戏和服装比赛。
莫莉：我可以扮成吸血鬼。
戈登：太好了，我扮成男吸血鬼，这样我们就是吸血鬼夫妇了。
莫莉：你休想，你应该扮成狼人。
戈登：为什么？
莫莉：因为你本来长得就很多毛，看起来像一只狼。哇，你的牙长得跟你多毛的鼻子那么大！
戈登：等着今天晚上点篝火的时候吧，我会讲一个吓人的故事让每个人都发抖。
莫莉：希望你不会只是讲一个老掉牙的鬼故事。
戈登：不，我会讲一个在万圣节之夜吸血鬼怎样被狼人吃掉的故事...呜！
