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.

　　杰克一個故事，一個愛爾蘭人，他并沒有因為他對錢吝嗇允許進(jìn)入天堂。所以他被送入地獄。但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼(撒旦)，所以他被踢出地獄，走地提著燈籠永遠(yuǎn)。

　　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."

　　嗯，愛爾蘭的孩子們用“杰克的燈籠在十月三十一日一個土豆或蘿卜，掏空與兩側(cè)有洞，里面點上蠟燭。和愛爾蘭的孩子們會把他們挨家挨戶乞討食物為村里的萬圣節(jié)節(jié)榮獲德魯伊神渣土奧拉。這種燈籠的愛爾蘭名字是“拿”或“杰克的燈籠的杰克，”簡稱“空心南瓜燈”現(xiàn)在拼寫為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.

　　傳統(tǒng)的萬圣節(jié)你在大多數(shù)書里讀到的只是孩子們開心的夜晚。萬圣節(jié)的慶?；顒訉⒃谑麻_始每所小學(xué)。
