MAN AND SOCIETY Ing. Beáta Kačurová

HALLOWEEN • Halloween is a popular festival in the USA. It ´s on the 31 st October. • Adults and teenagers often go to fancy dress parties. • Restaurants and pubs often have special events too, for example: they show horror films. • Chidren wear scary costumes. • They visit friends and neighbours and ask for sweets. • They also make lanterns with candles. They play traditional games. • Other countries have similar festivals. • For example, in Mexico people go to graveyards. • They visit their dead relatives and they have picnics there. • Sometimes people stay there all night.

• A man can ´t live alone. Poeple live together, you need to have other people around in your life. • I go to school where I have a lot of friends. We help each other very much. We also talk together and have fun during the breaks. • In the afternoon I am usually at home. I spend a lot of time with my parents. Our favourite room in our flat is the living room. It is the centre of the family life. Here the family is together. We talk about our problems, drink tea or coffee and relax. We have TV in the living room, so we usually watch TV in the evenings.

• At weekends, I like going out with my friends. My friends have the same problems and the same interests. We understand each other very much. We like going out in the evenings, going to the cinema and listening to music. • As for me, I am a teenager. I can ´t go to work because I am a student. When you are 18 years old, you become an adult. • Adults have to go to work, take care of their family and earn money for living and housing.
