1、万圣节英语翻译范文 万圣节英语翻译 万圣节主要流行于英语世界,如不列颠群岛和北美,其次是澳大利亚和新西兰。现在,一些亚洲国家的年轻一辈,也开始倾向于过“洋节”，下面给大家准备了有关万圣节的英语介绍，一起来看看吧! 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
2、kicked out of Hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern. Well, Irish children made Jacks 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
3、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
4、 was just childrens fun night. Halloween celebrations would start in October in every elementary school. Children would make Halloween decorations, all kinds of orange-paper jack-o-lanterns. And from black paper youd cut scary designs -an evil witch with a pointed hat riding through the sky on a bro
5、omstick, maybe with black bats flying across the moon, and that meant bad luck. And of course black cats for more bad luck. Sometimes a black cat would ride away into the sky on the back of the witchs broom. And on Halloween night wed dress up in Mom or Dads old shoes and clothes, put on a mask, and
6、 be ready to go outside. The little kids (children younger than we were) had to go with their mothers, but we older ones went together to neighbors houses, ringing their doorbell and yelling, Trick or treat! meaning, Give us a treat (something to eat) or well play a trick on you! The people inside w
7、ere supposed to e to the door and ment on our costumes. Oh! heres a ghost. Oh, theres a witch. Oh, heres an old lady. Sometimes they would play along with us and pretend to be scared by some ghost or witch. But they would always have some candyand maybe an apple to put in our trick or treat bags. Bu
8、t what if no one e to the door, or if someone chased us away? Then wed play a trick on them, usually taking a piece of soap and make marks on their windows. . And afterwards we would go home and count who got the most candy. One popular teen-agers Halloween trick was to unroll a roll of toilet paper
9、 and throw it high into a tree again and again until the tree was all wrapped in the white paper. The paper would often stay in the tree for weeks until a heavy snow or rain washed it off. No real harm done, but it made a big mess of both the tree and the yard under it. One kind of Halloween mischie
10、f. 1. was stingy with：对吝啬。Stingy这个词你可不要去模仿，因为他是“吝啬的”意思，要不你可要成为“葛朗台”了!但你可要注意stinggy这个形容词词是和介词with连用的呀! 2. carrying a lantern：拿着灯笼。这里用carrying作walk的伴随状语，更生动地说明可怜的Jack无论走到哪里手里都要提着灯笼了。好累呀! 3. neighbors houses：邻居的屋子。Neighbors本身已经是复数，有一个“s”了。如果表示“邻居的”，就不能加“s”(太累赘)，而要直接加“”了。所以就是neighbors houses。 4. e to th
11、e door：应门。“走到门前面”自然就是要来开门看看是哪些小淘气在捣乱啦! 5. unroll a roll of toilet paper：翻开一卷纸。这么多roll，可别怵!roll是“卷、卷起”的意思，a roll of toilet paper是一卷手纸;unroll那么是roll(卷起)的反义词“翻开”的意思，所以就是“翻开一卷手纸”了! 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罗卜制作“杰克的灯笼”，
12、他们把中间挖掉、外表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 现在拼写为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：各种各样桔黄色的南瓜灯。你可以用黑色的纸做一个可怕的造形一个骑在扫帚把上戴着尖尖帽子的女巫飞过天空，或者是黑蝙蝠飞过月亮。这些都代表恶运。当然黑猫代表运气更差。有时候会出现黑猫骑在女巫扫帚后面飞向天空的造形。 在万圣节的晚上，我们都
13、穿着爸爸妈妈的旧衣服和旧鞋子，戴上面具，打算外出。比我们小的孩子必须和他们的母亲一块出去，我们大一点的就一起哄到邻居家，按他们的门铃并大声喊道：“恶作剧还是招待!”意思是给我们吃的，要不我们就捉弄你。里边的人们应该出来评价我们的化装。 “噢!这是鬼，那是女巫，这是个老太婆。” 有时候他们会跟我们一起玩，假装被鬼或者女巫吓着了。但是他们通常会带一些糖果或者苹果放进我们的“恶作剧还是招待”的口袋里。可是要是没人答复门铃或者是有人把我们赶开该怎么办呢?我们就捉弄他们，通常是拿一块肥皂把他们的玻璃涂得乱七八糟。然后我们回家，数数谁的糖果最多。 还有一个典型的万圣节花招是把一卷手纸拉开，不停地往树上扔，直到树全被白纸裹起来。除非下大雪或大雨把纸冲掉，纸会一直呆在树上。这并不造成真正的伤害，只是把树和院子搞乱，一种万圣节的恶作剧。
