  29. 每年在教堂庆祝的复活节指的是春分月圆后的第一每年在教堂庆祝的复活节指的是春分月圆后的第一 个星期日，如果月圆那天刚好是星期天，复活节则推迟 一星期。因而复活节可能在从3月22日到4月25日之间 的任何一天。 复活节是最古老最有意义的基督教节日。因为它 庆祝的是基督的复活，世界各地的基督徒都要庆祝这 一节日。 　 典型的复活节礼物跟春天和再生有关系：鸡蛋、 小鸡、小兔子、鲜花，特别是百合花这一季节的象征。 复活节前夕，孩子们为朋友和家人给鸡蛋着色打扮一番。 复活节那天早上，孩子们会发现床前的复活节篮子里 装满了巧克力彩蛋、复活节小兔子、有绒毛的小鸡 及娃娃玩具等。一年一度的美国白宫滚彩蛋活动经常被 电视台实况转播。

  32. 每年的１０月３１日为万圣节，它是西方国家的传统每年的１０月３１日为万圣节，它是西方国家的传统 节日。这一夜是一年中最“闹鬼”的一夜，所以也叫“鬼 节”。１０月３１日是夏天正式结束的日子，也就是新 年伊始，严酷的冬季开始的一天。那时人们相信，故 人的亡魂会在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵， 借此再生，而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。 而活着的人则惧怕死魂来夺生，于是人们就在这一天 熄掉炉火、烛光，让死魂无法找寻活人，又把自己打 扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂灵吓走。 万圣节的一个有趣内容是“Trick or treat”，孩子们 提着南瓜灯笼挨家讨糖吃的。见面时，打扮成鬼精灵 模样的孩子们千篇一律地都要发出“不请吃就捣乱”的 威胁，而主人自然不敢怠慢，连声说“请吃！请吃！” 同时把糖果放进孩子们随身携带的大口袋里。
