Trick or Treating
Jack-o-lantern.
It is a popular tradition in the USA to buy a big pumpkin and make a jack-o'-lantern. People put their jock-o'-lanterns in front of the windows of their homes or in their gardens. This tradition originated in Great Britain and 9Island, when people wanted to frighten evil 10spirits, But they didn't use pumpkins then: they used big 11turnips.In the United States there weren't any turnips, so people used pumpkins.
Another popular Halloween tradition is 'trick or treating'. This began in the nineteenth century, and was an Irish tradition. Irish 12tradition brought 'trick or treating' to the United States. Today children and teenagers go 'trick or treating' in the evening. They visit their 13neigbors .houses in their costumes. When the door opens they say 'Trick or treat?'

For example if my friends have a Birthday, I prepare for it. every day a lot of things mean to me, every day at me occurs on the, but most often in that order in which I wrote you earlier. I would like to describe a lot of things.
В понедельник. Утром я встаю и иду в школу чтобы получать знания. После уроков я обычно иду домой, делаю уроки, кушаю и отдыхаю, вечером перед сном я чищу зубы и готовлюсь ко сну. Так обычно повторяется все дни кроме выходных, до каникул.
К примеру если у моих подруг День Рождение, то я готовлюсь к нему. каждый день значит для меня многое, каждый день у меня происходит по своему, но чаще всего в том порядке, в котором я вам писала ранее. Мне бы хотелось описать многое.
Если не нравится можешь что-нибудь переделать.
Healthy lifestyle is getting more and more popular nowadays. People understand that it is better to stay healthy and fit than to treat illnesses and diseases. Besides, being healthy means being happy. Healthy people are more attractive and more successful in life.
There are many ways of keeping fit. Firstly, we can go to fitness clubs or gyms. Secondly, we can go jogging or rollerskating. In fact, walking or jogging are the cheapest and most accessible sports. But we need to remember that we should do it on a regular basis. A healthy diet is an important part of staying healthy, too. This diet contains lots of fruit and vegetables, fish and lean meat. We should choose food with reduced amounts of cholesterol, fat, sugar and salt.
In my region teenagers prefer such sport activities as playing football, swimming, cycling and rollerskating.
