ROUND VI
Ведущий:
What holiday do children like best of all?
Yes, that’s right. It’s Halloween. Now students from both teams will tell us about this holiday.
Ss.:1. Halloween was first celebrated many centuries ago in Ireland and Scotland by Celtic
priests called Druids. The Druids thought that Halloween was the night when the witches came
out. As they were afraid of the witches they put on different clothes and painted their faces to
deceive the evil spirits. They also placed food and small gifts near the doors of their houses for
the witches. This was, as they say now, the beginning of the expression “ trick or treat”.
2. It is considered that Halloween was brought to America by the immigrants from Ireland and
Scotland. In the 19th century they celebrated Halloween according to their old traditions. As the
time went by, grown-up people lost interest in Halloween and it was celebrated almost entirely
by children. Dressed very strangely, children held festivals.
Ведущий: How do children dress? ( students’ answers)
3. In recent years grown-up people have begun taking part in Halloween. In New York, for
example, young and old people take part in parades together. A great number of people get
together in one of the streets. They are dressed as witches, demons and other evil spirits.
4. There are hundreds of large orange “ pumpkins” in their hands. After the parade the festival
lasts almost till early morning.
Ведущий обращается к аудитории: What is your favourite holiday? Why?
ROUND VII
Ведущий:
And now Student X will recite a poem “ Halloween” by John Updike.
The month is amber
Gold and brown
Blue ghosts of smoke
Float through the town
Great V’s of geese
Honk overhead
And maples turn
A fairy red.
At last, small witches
Goblins, hags
And pirates armed
With paper bags.
Their costumes hinged
On safety pins
Go haunt a night
Of pumpkin grins
Ведущий: And now let us listen to the Russian variant of this poem.
( ученика было дано домашнее задание: перевести стихотворение на русский язык,
сохранив ритм, рифму, контекст и настроение произведения.)
Один из вариантов перевода:
Янтарный месяц
Золотой, багряный
И пелена тумана
Над городом хрустальным.
Гусей крикливых
Караван печальный
И клёнов кроны
Шелест величавый
Морозец лёгкий
Трогает листву
И звёзды –
Узкие глаза кошачьи.
И, наконец, выходят ведьмы,
Колдуны и духи
Верша обход своих владений
С тыквами в руках.
Each round is valued by the jury.
Ведущий: You have heard about witches’ tricks. I am sure everybody is fond of playing tricks.
Now the teammates will play tricks on their opponents.
Участники игры предлагают друг другу различные забавные задания, конкурсы,
розыгрыши. Например:
S. Please come here and look at this donkey. I am sure that you have recognized the old friend of
yours. That is Eeyore. He has lost his tail. But I have found it. Here it is. If you manage to fix it
in its proper place with your eyes closed you will be given a point.
Ведущий: And now the floor is given to the jury.
( подведение итогов, определение победителей, вручение призов).
