     Halloween is a strange holiday. It started several centuries ago in Europe. It began as “Hallow Evening” which means “holy night”. At that time,November 1st was called “All Saints’ Day” and people honored all the saints who did not have their own special day. People believed that all the spirits of dead people were active on the night of October 31st. So people would play all sorts of tricks on each other.

     Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors? probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night. Pumpkins are a symbol of Halloween,so orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Making lanterns out of pumpkins is a Halloween custom.

     Halloween is great fun for children. They dress up as ghosts or witches. Small children go “Trick-or-Treating”. They wear costumes,knock on doors,and shout ,“Trick or Treat!” People almost always choose to give them candy as a treat,instead of choosing to receive a trick from the children. Adults sometimes “trick or treat” their friends,too. Usually the “treat” is a glass of wine or some small gifts.

     Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the most powerful (很有效的) way to encourage them to be so? 丁lie answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.

     Unfortunately,most parents make decisions for their children —what they wear,what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact,it's not good for children to grow up.

     Children should be allowed to make decisions when they are very young. But this doesn’t mean they are allowed to do everything. For example,you shouldn’t take your children into a store and tell them they can have anything they want. But you can give them a choice among snacks. When children get older,you can expand the number of choices you give them. For example,allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.

      The next step is to teach your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First,why do I want to do this? Second,what are my choices? Third,what are the results of the actions? After the three questions,they are sure to make right decisions.

() 1. What's the best way to make children happy and successful?

   A. To make children read more books.

   B. To make children go to college.

   C. To allow children to make their own decisions.

   D. To allow children to buy more books.

   A. most parents make decisions for their children

   B. how to make children smart

   C. how to teach children to make decisions
