Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, 'twas his intent
To blow up the King and Parli'ment.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England's overthrow;
By God's providence [or mercy] he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Hulloa boys, Hulloa boys, let the bells ring.
Hulloa boys, hulloa boys, God save the King!

Halloween!
Actually when I wait Halloween day coming I am so exciting , because I did not celebrate Halloween day in my country. Before, i just learn about information of Halloween festival, but I can be proud to introduce what is Halloween to my friends.
Halloween did marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. In my opinion, people did not understand geography or astronomy so that they did think dark will take died at that time. Compare with past, nowadays people continue custom to celebrate festival, but it is relax time in Halloween day, instead of fear.
In Halloween day, the adults need to have some preparation. first of all, they need to buy candy in advance, because lovely children will knock your door to take candy. Secondly, they should decorate house, as if it were a haunted house or a cemetery, it is suitable Halloween atmosphere. Lastly, people should buy costume.
Definitely, Halloween not only take fun for people, but also it is big business market, because people need to buy clothes and candy, it will be better to increase financial revenue from social market.
