You should be very careful on the night of October 31. This is the night when witches and ghosts come out! Halloween is the most famous of witches' festivals. They ride on brooms through the midnight air to meet with the Devil. Black cats, their best friends, usually accompany them. Poor cold ghosts come out of the lonely woods and fields and warm themselves in people's houses. Ghosts and witches are not the only ones who come out at Halloween. From their hiding places come hundreds of demons, skeletons, goblins and other supernatural creatures.

Children in the US, Great Britain and Ireland like Halloween very much. In the weeks before October 31, they decorate the windows of their houses and schools with pictures of witches, black cats and bats. They make lanterns out of pumpkins. They are called jack-o'-lanterns. Black and orange are traditional Halloween colours.
On October 31, children dress up as ghosts and witches, skeletons and Draculas, and have noisy parties.

Sometimes they go to the people's houses and ring at the door, shouting "Trick or treat!" The person who opens the door must give the children a treat — some sweets or cookies. If not, the children play a trick on them. For example, they can throw flour at the window or draw a funny picture on the door. Halloween parties are great fun.

Lesie: My favorite thing to do is either swimming or what they call aqua-aerobics.

Simon: Aqua-aerobics? What's that?

Lesie: Well, actually, there are different kinds of aqua-aerobics. It's just like an aerobics class but it's in a swimming pool, so there's, so you're not putting pressure on your joints when you're jumping up and down.

Lesie: Yeah, um, because it's going to be Christmas soon, I'll be able to enjoy my hobby of baking.

Simon: So what kind of things do you bake?

Lesie: Oh, well, sometimes I bake pies, like pumpkin pies or pecan pies. Pecan pies are very famous where I come from in Florida because we have pecan trees and then sometimes I do cakes, like really rich cakes like red velvet cakes, or carrot cakes, but this year I'm going to be baking cookies.

Simon: Cookies! What kind of cookies, Leslie?

Lesie: Ah, let's see this year's cookies are going to be the traditional Christmas sugar cookie, which is a big cookie in a kind of a Christmas shape, like a Christmas tree or Santa Claus with icing or some colored sugar, very yummy, and some M&M cookies with red and green M&M's.
