2015年節(jié)日的英語(yǔ)作文：萬(wàn)圣節(jié)
One of the oldest Halloween traditions comes from the ancient Celts， who lived in western and central Europe long ago. The Celts celebrated a holiday called Samhain on October 31. After sunset that day， people believed that spirits of the dead would rise and walk the earth. The Celts made offerings of food and drink to keep the spirits away.
Beginning about 2，000 years ago， the Roman Empire conquered many Celtic peoples. But Celtic traditions， including Samhain， remained strong in areas such as Ireland and Scotland， even after the Roman conquest.
The Roman Catholic Church tried to replace Samhain in 835 with All Saints' Day， a day to honor saints of the Church. The eve of All Saints' Day is October 31. It is called Allhallows or Hallowmas by the Church.
最古老的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)傳統(tǒng)之一來(lái)自于古老的凱爾特人,很久以前住在歐洲西部和中部。凱爾特人慶祝一個(gè)節(jié)日叫夏末節(jié)10月31日。日落之后那一天,人們相信死者的靈魂會(huì)上升,地球走。凱爾特人的食品和飲料保持精神獻(xiàn)祭。
大約在2000年前開(kāi)始,羅馬帝國(guó)征服了許多凱爾特民族。但凱爾特傳統(tǒng),包括夏末節(jié),保持強(qiáng)勁的地區(qū)如愛(ài)爾蘭和蘇格蘭,即使在羅馬征服。
羅馬天主教會(huì)試圖取代835年夏末節(jié)所有圣徒的日子,紀(jì)念圣徒教會(huì)的一天。萬(wàn)圣節(jié)前夕是10月31日。它被稱(chēng)為萬(wàn)圣節(jié)或萬(wàn)圣節(jié)的教堂。
