In the past , the festival meant houses decorated with Jack-o-lanterns , cool costumes made by mums , and going door to door to ask for candy , saying :” trick or treat.” However , you wouldnt have seen any of these if you were at this years Halloween even in Shibuya, Tokyo . It lasted for four days from October 27. Halloween in Japan has become a big party for adults , who dress up in costumes and have fun . This years events were so popular that Tokyo police had to stop cars from entering two streets so that walker could pass safely . In other words , this festival is no longer just a time for kids . AS USA Today editor Bruce Horovitz wrote ,”Adult have slowly been stealing Halloween from kids.” But “Steal” is not quite the word , since the adults of today all used to be kids themselves , These grown-ups still manage to keep the tradition of dressing up alive though theyre too old to knock strangers door for candy now . Some companies even encourage their employees to wear costumes so they can relax and enjoy the festival fun. “You can wear whatever you want and not be judged ,” Denise Delahorne of an advertising company told Forbes when asked why adults like Halloween more than other holidays. “There is no stress to it . You dont have to travel or deal with relatives . if you are single , you dont have the stress to go to have a date during this holiday.” That isnt good news for kids , but on the bright side , at least young people can still get free candy .

Cheerful B . doubtful C. annoyed D. disappointedC The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people than any weapon（武器) ever invented . Much of the blood on the street flows mainly because of careless drivers . These drivers refuse to respect the law . The accidents on the road may be regarded as a social problem . In fact , the enemies of society are harmless people or ordinary people . You may think these people act carelessly , but carelessly is no excuse when ones actions could bring death or damage to others. Researchers think that as many as 80% of all automobile accidents can be caused by the psychological(心理的) condition of the drivers . The experts warn that it is very import for drivers to try to keep their emotions under control. When the drivers are upset, their judgment will be slow , and they may be unaware of the danger . Actually, street walkers should also be responsible for the accidents because they dont obey the traffic rules . They are responsible in most vehicle walker accidents . And worst of all , many bicycle-riders even believe that they neednt obey the basic rules of the road. In the past few years , many laws have been made towards safer driving . Safely standards for vehicle have been raised too . In addition , speed limits have been lowered . Due to these measures , the accident rate has decreased . But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution , say the experts , is to ask people to believe driving is a skilled task requiring care and concentration(专注).47.
