Mrs, Brown dropped a candy bar into each child's bag.

Every year on October 31. Halloween scenes like this occur throughout the USA. American children love to dress up in costumes and go trick-or-treating. If an adult refuses to supply a treat—candy, cookies, fruit, or money— the children may play a trick. Typical Halloween pranks are soaping windows, writing on doors with crayons, overturning garbage cans, sticking pins into doorbells to keep them ringing, throwing raw eggs, and spraying shaving cream on cars and friends.
Halloween is celebrated by nearly all American children, and over 70% of adults also participate in some Halloween activity. College students and other young adults may attend masquerade parties or Halloween parades. Many families carve pumpkins and decorate the outside of their homes with the traditional Halloween symbols. Businesses get into the act, too. Store windows display jack-o'-lanterns, scarecrows, and witches. Servers in restaurants and salespeople in supermarkets and bookstores are often in costume. Many nightclubs and bars encourage customers to come in costume by offering prizes for the best disguises
UINT 4 PART 3
1. W: Some people say that many TV programs are silly, meaningless, or a waste of time. What do you
think of them, Jim?
M: It seems to me that some important social issues—like drugs, divorce and so on—are dealt
with fairly realistically and a lot of honest talks can be heard in these programs. Q: What does the man think of the TV programs?
2. W: How was the lecture yesterday? M: Well... It was a complete drag.
W: How come? Many students seem to be interested inJohnson's lecture. M: But the one yesterday was the pits. It bored me to tears. Q: How does the man think about the lecture yesterday?
3. W: Frank, what do you think about your college life?
M: Generally speaking, my college years are exciting and rewarding, but they are certainly not easy or carefree. Just about all college students face the pressure of making important career decisions and some anxiety about examinations and grades. Q: What does the man think about his college life?
4. W: Wow! This is a marvelous room! Whose idea was it to decorate the room like this? M: It was Jane's.
W: I never knew she was good at this. She must be very art-conscious. Q: What does the woman think about Jane now?
5. W: I've been reading a lot lately about the issue of women's rights, and I find that is a very hot topic
now.
M: It depends on which magazine or paper you read. If it's a women's magazine, just about every article has that as a topic in one way or another. Q: What is the man's response to the woman's saying?
6. M: Ann, it's good to see you back. Do you remember when we were kids, we used to go swimming
together?
W: Yeah. I sure do. I really love this town and I have a lot of good memories from here.
M: I want to tell you that we take a lot of pride in the gold medal you won and we are behind you one hundred percent.
Q: What does the man think of the woman?
7. W: How are you doing since you retired four months ago?
M; I thought it would be wonderful to be retired. I have looked forward to this day for thirty years, but now I'm considering volunteering.
Q: What does the man feel about his retired days?
8. W: Well, it seems that Frank has become quite a famous painter.
M: Has he? You know I'm a professional artist myself and I question how much talent Frank has. Q: What conclusion can be drawn from the man's comments?
