杰克灯英文

据传说有一个名叫杰克的人非常吝啬，因而死后不能进入天堂，而且因为他取笑魔鬼也不能进入地狱，所以，他只能提着灯笼四处游荡，直到审判日那天。于是，杰克和南瓜灯便成了被诅咒的游魂的象征。人们为了在万圣节前夜吓走这些游魂，便用芜菁、甜菜或马铃薯雕刻成可怕的面孔来代表提着灯笼的杰克，这就是南瓜灯的由来。

用南瓜雕制南瓜灯也是一个万圣节传统，其历史也可追溯到爱尔兰。传说有一个名叫杰克的人非常吝啬，因而死后不能进入天堂，而且因为他取笑魔鬼也不能进入地狱，所以，他只能提着灯笼四处游荡，直到审判日那天。于是，杰克和南瓜灯便成了被诅咒的游魂的象征。

传说有一个名叫杰克的人非常吝啬，因而死后不能进入天堂，而且因为他取笑魔鬼也不能进入地狱，所以，他只能提着灯笼四处游荡，直到审判日那天。

于是，杰克和南瓜灯便成了被诅咒的游魂的象征。人们为了在万圣节前夜吓走这些游魂，便用芜菁、甜菜或马铃薯雕刻成可怕的面孔来代表提着灯笼的杰克，这就是南瓜灯（Jack-o-lantern）的由来。

爱尔兰人迁到美国后，便开始用南瓜来进行雕刻，因为在美国秋天的时候南瓜比芜菁更充足。现在，如果在万圣节的晚上人们在窗户上挂上南瓜灯就表明那些穿着万圣节服装的人可以来敲门捣鬼要糖果。

万圣节活动：

1、敲门索取糖果

万圣节的传统习俗活动有很多，其中最常见的就是敲门索取糖果。当天晚上小孩子们会打扮成妖魔鬼怪的样子，挨家挨户地敲门，并大喊：trick or treat！意思是不给糖就捣蛋。主人家要准备好糖果、巧克力等小零食派发给小朋友们，如果不给的话会被恶作剧。

2、占卜游戏

除了小孩子的糖果活动，大人们还有占卜游戏。在19世纪的爱尔兰地区，盛行这一种占卜游戏，未婚的少女们会准备一只洒满面粉的碟子，然后放上一只蛞蝓，蛞蝓在碟上爬行的痕迹勾勒出来的图案，就是少女未来丈夫的模样。

另一种占卜是准备几只小碟子，让参加者蒙眼随意选择一只，如果摸到盛着水的碟子，代表即将远行；摸到盛着钱币的碟子代表会发财致富；摸到盛着豆子的碟子，代表着穷困。

Fine

Father used to be a heavy smoker. He always smoked when he waswatching TV,reading newspapers and so on. Mother and I had advised him to quit smoking many times. Though he knew smoking was harmful to health,he still said that smoke could make his head sober when he was sleepy. This lasted for a long time until one thing happening today changed his mind.

Today,when we were having supper,a loud cry from our neigh-bour's house reached us. We didn't know what had happened,so father decided to go to the neighbour's room to have a look. After a while,he came back and told us in an upset voice, "Mr. Wang died several minu-tes ago, "“Why? "Mother asked. Father didn't answer but picked out all of his cigarettes and threw them away. Later on,we knew Mr. Wang died from over-smoking. This evening, Father promised to us, "I will never smoke again. "

父亲过去烟瘾很大。当他看电视、看报纸时，经常抽烟。我和妈妈多次建议他戒烟。虽然他知道吸烟对健康有害，但他仍然说，当他昏昏欲睡时，吸烟能使他头脑清醒。这种状况持续了很长时间，直到今天发生了二件事使他改变了思想。

今天，当我们吃晚饭时，一个刺耳的叫喊声从邻居家传来，我们不知道发生了什么事情。父亲决定去邻居家看一看。过了一会儿，他回到家心烦意乱地说：“王先生几分钟前死了。”“为什么?”妈妈问。父亲没回答，只是拿出他所有的香烟，扔掉了。一会儿，我们得知王先生死于过度吸烟。今天晚上，父亲答应我们：“我以后再不吸烟了。”

我们的新英语老师是一个既风趣又“凶残”的一个人，可以说是一个彻彻底底的“两面派”。她——便是我们的倪老师。

记得在暑假最后几天，一个天大的坏消息将我惊得心底冷冰冰的，不禁让我倒吸一口凉气——我们的英语老师换了。而让我更生无可恋的则是我们的新英语老师可是以“凶狠残暴”闻名校园的。

在没正式见面之前，我便对这位老师有所耳闻，几乎所有家长都说倪老师是位很好的老师，是位教导有方的老师，更是位十分严厉的老师。

上课的第一天，我有幸见到了她。当她刚跨进门的时候，我一眼就看到了那一头不算长的头发被束在后脑勺，那眼睛是炯炯有神，像一颗明珠一样闪烁着光芒，她脸上的每一个表情都写满了她的喜怒哀乐，随时可以吸引每一位同学的目光，活跃班级的气氛，引领每一个人的情绪。眨眼间，她的身形像疾风一样闪到讲台前，整个人看上去十分精明干练。

开口几句话就让我们笑开了颜——“classbegin！”一句英文在教室里回响，那声音果真是如雷贯耳，吓得我们一个个呆若木鸡。反应过来时，想起立却又不敢起立，“难道我走错班啦？”“这是八班吧？”说完便笑了起来，银铃般的笑声让我们也情不自禁地跟着傻笑，也有小部分同学小心翼翼地轻声回答：“嗯。”“是八班。”不得不说倪老师的气场真是强大！

报名字的时候，老师用洪亮地声音喊着我的名字，我马上起立，高喊一声“到！”老师瞅瞅我，忽然问了一句“你热不？”我不轻不响地回答：“不热。”老师问我的原因是因为炎炎夏日我却还披一件春季的校服外套，我妈也让我脱，可我却死活不脱，因为我真的不热。说完老师就开始调侃我：“如果中暑了我可以帮你扭痧。”说着还做起了扭痧的动作，还真是惟妙惟肖，手指一勾，那两根有劲的大拇指和食指便是狠狠一掐空气，脸上依然挂着笑容。我的后背却冒着冷汗，因为我曾经尝过这种滋味，简直痛不欲生。我只能苦笑着，心里想着：“这老师忒‘狠’了点吧？”

之后，老师拿出了一样“致命武器”——一根结实的'教棒。当我一眼看见那家伙时，瞬间身形一抖，脸上的表情越来越不自然。她还让我们猜这根棒子叫什么名字，不一会，我的脑中便是灵光一闪，蹦出三个大字——杀威棒！心里想着：“这名字怕是再合适不过了。”可惜人算不如天算，原来她真正的名字叫“哈利。波特”，那可是一根承载着无数学子们的恐惧、害怕的教棒，那教棒上早已染上无形的杀气，是刹那能让我们闻风丧胆的魔鬼！我的心瞬间跌落地狱，绝望的心情笼罩在心头，面部不自然地抽搐着。

终于“叮”地一声，下课铃声响起，可我们却丝毫不敢挪动半分，直到老师从教室门口出去。走得远远的时候，才一把摊在椅子上，长舒一口气，心里的大石头才终于落下。

我们的老师能轻而易举地将我们的心情瞬间切换，像是在荡秋千，一会儿高，一会儿低，还真是位既幽默又“凶残”的老师，真不知道是幸运呢？还是不幸呢？

如何？你可有一位这样“两面派”的老师？

It was raining when Tom was on his way home. He opened his umbrella and walked faster. Suddenly he saw an old woman staggering forward with a stick in her hand. She hadn't got an umbrella with her and was wet all over. Tom went up to her and tried to share his umbrella with her. But the old woman was tall and he was too short to hold it high enough. Then he saw the old woman's stick and a good idea came to him. He tried hard to tie the stick to the handle of the umbrella. Then the umbrella was long enough for both of them. The old woman thanked him again and again. Then they went on walking home.

My father likes fishing. He always goes fishing with his friends in Autumn.

One day, he took me to fish, too. In autumn, fish have grown up. It is the best season to fish. First, we chose a good place. Then my father helped me put an earthworm onto the fishhook. Afterwards, I threw the fishhook into the river. I waited for a long time. Suddenly, I saw the float sink. I was very happy. I pulled it out of the water but I only saw half of the earthworm. The fish played a trick on me. I was very angry. But my father said to me, “it takes time. You need to be more patient.” I tried again. A few minutes later, I caught a big fish and I showed it to my father. My father praised me, “what a good angler you are!”

Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year. It means "holy evening," and it comes every October 31, the evening before All Saints' Day. However, it is not really a church holiday, it is a holiday for children mainly.

Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside. It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack-o'-lanterns, which means "Jack of the lantern".

The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house. Every time they come to a new house, they say, "Trick or treat! Money or eat!" The grown-ups put treat-money or candy in their bags.

Not only children, but most grown-ups also love Halloween and Halloween parties because on this day,they can disguise themselves as personages or ghost as their imaginations will lead them. This bring them the satisfaction of being young.

【译文】

万圣节前夜是美国人年年都会庆祝的秋季节日。它的意思是“神圣的夜晚”，在每年的10月31日，也就是万圣节前夜。但实际上这不是一个真正的宗教节日，而主要是孩子们的节日。

每年秋天蔬菜成熟可以食用的时候，孩子们就会挑出大个儿的橙色南瓜。然后在南瓜上刻上一张脸，把一根点燃的蜡烛放在里面。看起来就好像有人在向南瓜外面张望。这些灯就叫做“iack-o'-lantems”，也就是“杰克灯”。

每年万圣节前夕孩子们还戴上奇怪的面具，穿上吓人的服装。有些孩子把脸刷成怪物。然后他们拿着盒子或袋子挨家挨户串门。每来到一个新房子他们就说：“不款待就捣乱!给钱还是吃的!”大人们就会把用来招待的钱或糖放在他们的袋子里了。

不仅孩子，许多成年人也喜欢万圣节前夕和万圣节前夕晚会。因为这一天他们可以根据自己的想象把自己装扮成名流或幽灵。这会带给他们年轻的快感。
