5. Read the text and choose the right item.

October comes and Halloween quickly approaches. This holiday is an old Celtic tradition. It is the time when people gather the harvest. Legends say that the worlds of the living and the dead come close during this time. Fairies, witches and goblins have a celebration in the night. The children spend time preparing for Halloween. They take pumpkins and carve (вырезают) jack-o-lanterns (фонарики) out of them. They listen to the stories of the naughty goblin that sneaks into homes. He puts salt in the sugar bowls, opens all the windows and hides everyone's clothes. The children learn that people use the jack-o-lanterns to scare off the naughty goblins; they place them at the doorsteps and in the windows! On the day of the festival, classrooms in England are magically transformed and there are a lot of jack-o-lanterns. The children come in simple homemade costumes. They welcome adventure, mystery, beauty and magic.
