Some festivals are held to honour the dead or satisfy the ancestors，who might return neither to help or to do harm. For the Japanese festival Obon，people should go to clean graves and light incense in the memory of their ancestors. They also light lamps and play music because they think what this will lead the ancestors back to earth. In Mexico，people celebrate the day of the dead in earlily November. On this important feast day，people eat food in the shape of skulls and cakes with "bones" on it. They offer food，flowers and gifts to the dead. The Western holiday Halloween also has its origin in old beliefs about the return of the spirit of dead people. It is now a children's festival，which they can dress up and go to their neighbours' homes to ask for sweets. If the neighbours do not give any sweets，the children might play a trick at them.

9 . When I lived in France last year, my friends and I, decided to have a “friendsgiving” in November because we were so far away from our families. We decided to have the dinner at my friend Brigitte’s apartment in Paris. There was only one problem. It was difficult to get a turkey because French people don’t celebrate Thanksgiving. The day before our “friendsgiving” dinner, Brigitte and I went to four different markets to look for a turkey. It took us five hours, but we finally found one. We were so excited!

The next day, everyone brought different foods from their home country to share. There was Moroccan (摩洛哥的) food, Italian food, German food, and of course French food. While we waited for the turkey to cook, we played cards and told stories. That’s when we heard a loud BANG! We all ran to the kitchen. There was water everywhere. The water pipes under Brigitte’s kitchen sink were broken. The kitchen was filling with water very fast.

“Jack, you all grab the food and run to the roof (屋顶)!” Brigitte yelled. We took all the food, plates, drinks and silverware and ran to the roof. Brigitte ran outside to turn off the water. That’s when we realized the turkey was still in the oven. We ran to the flooded kitchen, grabbed some gloves, and pulled the turkey out of the oven.

In the end, we all had an amazing “friendsgiving” dinner on a Parisian rooftop with all of our good friends. The turkey was a little darker and “crispy” but still delicious.
