随着中国与世界各国文化交流的增多，一些西方的节日也渐渐渗透到了我们的日常生活中。现在，我们不光庆祝中国传统的节日，一些西方的节日像情人节、圣诞节我们也要庆祝。但是，说到万圣节，很多中国人可能只是听说过这样的一个词，可能只有一些人会联想到面具，南瓜，至于孩子们的恶作剧，知道的人就更少了。

我最近老看到酒吧里有面具，南瓜的装饰，说是庆祝万圣节。这到底是个什么节日呀？

嘿，这么巧!我也对这个很好奇，所以上网查了一下。我们现在所庆祝的万圣节确切地说应该是“万圣节前夜”，是在十月三十一号。它起初是爱尔兰凯尔特人的鬼节，这就是为什么现在人们以古灵精怪的打扮庆祝万圣节。不过流传到现在，它的意义也不同了，变得积极快乐和喜庆。就像开一个大派对。

原来是这样。这几年中国的外国人多了，也把他们的文化带到了这里。不过，不像圣诞节和情人节，知道万圣节的中国人还很少，更别提庆祝了。只有一些外国人多的地方，比如酒吧，才会有一些气氛。

是啊，不过我在外国人的超市也看到好多万圣节的南瓜灯。其实这个节日还有一个很重要的部分，就是小孩子问邻居要糖吃。他们会几个人一起，绕着自己住的地方，一家一家敲门，说:“trickortreat?”如果哪家没有用好东西招待他们，他们就会搞恶作剧。
