Halloween is perhaps the third most popular holiday for parties, coming after New Year’s and Christmas. With Halloween, we have the opportunity to dress up for the night and “be someone else”.
Team Maker
If you are going to have games, you may require teams. One way to put together the teams randomly, thus encouraging guests who don’t already know each other, is to have them draw pieces from a cauldron(大锅) or witch’s hat. Beforehand, write enough words on pieces of paper to have one for every guest. On the pieces of paper write words like: Egyptian tomb, pyramid, magic wand, magic spell, black cat, etc. Everyone draws a piece of paper.
Dress Up the Dead
This game is not for the shy and may result in some small rude performance. For the game, you will need a put-together skeleton. They can be found in the Halloween section of many stores. The skeleton can be of wood or plastic, so long as it can be taken apart easily and can be recombined together. The host “buries” the broken up skeleton under a pile of sawdust, loose dirt or hay in the yard. The first team, while being timed, must discover all the skeleton pieces then run to where there’s a hook for hanging the skeleton. They must recombine the skeleton and then, donating parts of their own clothing, dress the skeleton in a shirt and pants.
Murder Mystery
Host a murder mystery as a play. Select players, either by volunteers or by random drawing or even have guests vote. While the players read over their parts, the rest of the guests arrange the room. Set up a row of chairs facing the party audience. This will be the “stage” where the murder mystery players will sit and perform their roles. The host keeps the game (play) moving, usually by playing one of the detective characters.
1.How can people form a team?
A. By giving a performance. B. By making a witch’s hat.
C. By writing some words. D. By drawing a piece of paper.
2.What persons are suitable for Dress Up the Dead?

C. Those who don’t mind small rudeness.
D. Those who are not good at making up.

A. They are prepared for the audience to sit.
B. They are used to sit in and perform for the players.
C. They are prepared for the host to guide the players.
D. They are used to attract the audience’s attention.
4.What is the best title for the text?

It’s Saturday morning in a large courtyard. Young designers sell their creations, from fine tea sets to hand-pained ceramic(瓷质的) earrings. I could be in east London, that is, until standard Chinese tones remind me I’m in Jingdezhen, a small Chinese city.
Centuries ago, when Europeans first saw Chinese porcelain, for example, it seemed so fine that they concluded it must have been made with magic and called it “white gold”.
They couldn’t find out how it was made, but they knew where it came from: the town of Changnan. Changnan porcelain was so in demand that early traders began calling the whole country by this town’s name, mixed by foreign tongues, Changnan transformed into China.
Two million years after porcelain’s invention, the town, now called Jingezhen, is still one of the world’s most important centres for porcelain production.
“The people are the most important treasure here, their roots are deep in history,” says Zhang Jia. She’s part of a new wave of designers who have come to Jingezhen to learn techniques handed down and refined(使精美) over a hundred generations. “This is the best place to study porcelain in China, perhaps in the entire world.” She adds.
Chinese artists aren’t the only ones drawn here. Founded in 2005 by Caroline Cheng, the Pottery Workshop runs classes for visitors from around the world.
In the Pottery Workshop’s second floor studio, I meet Trudy Golley and Paul Leather, a husband-wife duo from Canada. Paul tells me that when he first visited Jingdezhen there were no street lamps and only dirt pavements. There were workshops but their goods were bought by traders and sold on elsewhere. These days, stylish cafés and bars pop up next to concept stores. At one such shop, I admire some tiny teacups settling on a thick wooden branch like birds.
With the popularity of the Pottery Workshops, China’s young people are more interested in unique, individually-made products. Many of the designers are using Jingdezhen’s master craftsmen(工匠) to make them because they know they offer quality, attention to detail.
1.What made the writer realize that he was in China?
A. Fine tea sets. B. Hand-painted ceramic earrings.
C. Standard Chinese. D. Fine Chinese porcelain.
2.Zhang Jia came to Jingdezhen in order to _________.
A. know something about Jingdezhen’s history
B. enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jingdezhen
C. study techniques of making porcelain
D. pay a visit to some of her foreign friends
3.From what Paul said we can learn ____________.
A. many foreign visitors came to Jingdezhen to study porcelain
B. in the past Jingdezhen was a poor and dirty town
C. their goods were not popular in western countries
D. China’s young people are more interested in unique products
4.What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To appeal to people to buy Chinese porcelain.
B. To tell people traditional Chinese porcelain earns great reputation in Jingdezhen.
C. To advertise porcelain products in Jingdezhen.
D. To introduce some information about one traditional Chinese art in Jingdezhen.
