【“僵尸”大军袭击纽约城】

as if the morning commute wasn't odd enough, intrepid new yorkers trying to make their way to work on tuesday had to battle past hordes of the walking dead.

two dozen zombies, their clothes spattered with fake blood, were staggering up and down the block outside madison square garden. downtown, others shuffled across the brooklyn bridge.

some pedestrians looked startled or amused by the ghost-white actors with bruised-looking eyes. some people ignored them entirely. others whipped out their cell phone cameras.

horror movie fan linda emery was thrilled to see the creatures.

"i'm into zombies, anything with zombies," said the 58-year-old home care provider from brooklyn. it made a change from her usual commute.

"you see a lot of stuff, but not this stuff," she said.

erik machado, an audio engineer heading to work in new jersey, was unfazed and passed by the scene with nary a glance at the nightmares walking around.

"gotta commute, gotta go where i gotta go," the queens resident said.

the stunt was part of a campaign in 26 cities worldwide promoting the halloween premiere of the amc television series "the walking dead." the show is being broadcast outside of the united states on fox international channels.

at one point, about 15 zombies crawled on the roof, hood and trunk of a parked, off-duty taxi.

taxi driver david pollack managed to escape from the horde, scrambling out of the back seat, playing along with the drama of it all.

"i think i'm going to be walking over the george washington bridge and heading over to jersey, hopefully they haven't gotten there yet," he said.

he added, "i'm a tough new yorker, but i don't mess with zombies."

好像是嫌早晨上班路上的交通还不够刺激，周二这天，勇敢的纽约人还要对抗僵尸大军，设法杀出一条路来去上班。

二十多个僵尸浑身“血迹”斑斑，踉踉跄跄地徘徊在麦迪逊广场花园外的.街区上。在市中心，还有一些僵尸在布鲁克林大桥上穿梭。

看着这些鬼魂般惨白、眼眶青肿的演员，有些行人看起来被吓坏了，也有的乐在其中;有些人完全无视这些僵尸，还有一些人则掏出手机拍起了照片。

恐怖电影迷琳达?埃莫瑞觉得看到这些僵尸很刺激。

这位来自布鲁克林区的58岁的保姆说：“我很喜欢僵尸，喜欢任何跟僵尸有关的东西。”此次的僵尸大游行改变了她平常的上班路线。

她说：“你每天上下班可以看见很多东西，但看不见这个。”

音频工程师埃里克?马查多正在前往新泽西上班的路上，他丝毫不为所动，经过时对这些四处走动的梦魇般的东西甚至连看都没看一眼。

皇后区的居民则叫嚷着，“要上班去，要去该去的地方。”

这次个性表演是为了宣传美国经典电影有线电视台即将在万圣节首播的电视连续剧《行尸走肉》，宣传活动遍及全球26个城市。该剧在美国境外正通过福克斯国际频道播出。

在某处，大约有15个僵尸爬到了停在一旁歇班的出租车车顶、引擎盖和后备箱上。

被拖进这场闹剧的出租车司机大卫?波拉克费力地从车后座上爬出来，摆脱了这群僵尸。

他说：“我想我会步行穿过乔治华盛顿大桥，到新泽西去，希望他们还没有到达那里。”

他还说道，“我是一个强悍的纽约人，但是我不想和僵尸混在一起。”

One story about Jack， an Irishman， who was not allowed into Heaven because he was stingy with his money. So he was sent to hell. But down there he played tricks on the Devil （Satan）， so he was kicked out of Hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern.Well， Irish children made Jack's lanterns on October 31st from a large potato or turnip， hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside. And Irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village Halloween festival that honored the Druid god Muck Olla. The Irish name for these lanterns was "Jack with the lantern" or "Jack of the lantern，" abbreviated as " Jack-o'-lantern" and now spelled "jack-o-lantern."The traditional Halloween you can read about in most books was just children's fun night. Halloween celebrations would start in October in every elementary school.关于万圣节有这样一个故事。是说有一个叫杰克的爱尔兰人，因为他对钱特别的吝啬，就不允许他进入天堂，而被打入地狱。但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼撒旦，所以被踢出地狱，罚他提着灯笼永远在人世里行走。在十月三十一日爱尔兰的孩子们用土豆和萝卜制作“杰克的灯笼”，他们把中间挖掉、表面上打洞并在里边点上蜡烛。为村里庆祝督伊德神的万圣节，孩子们提着这种灯笼挨家挨户乞讨食物。这种灯笼的爱尔兰名字是“拿灯笼的杰克”或者“杰克的灯笼”，缩写为Jack-o'-lantern 。现在你在大多数书里读到的万圣节只是孩子们开心的夜晚。在小学校里，万圣节是每年十月份开始庆祝的。孩子们会制作万圣节的装饰品：各种各样桔红色的南瓜灯。
