My Speech About NZ!

Hi! I am Mai. I would like to introduce the compare summer between NZ and Japan.

Summer in Japan is about from June to August. However, summer in New Zealand is from December to February because it is located in the southern hemisphere. The average temperature is about 20~30 degree. It is affected a little air pollution, so the sun is very strong. In addition, the sun stays long.

The summer of NZ is a very good for playing activities in the sea! We can not only swim there but also play surfing and take a boat. Of course, we can go hike because there are many mountains in NZ.

The main event in summer is Christmas! It is very important event in NZ. I think Japanese people and NZ people have different images of Christmas. Of course, Christmas in Japan is winter. However, Santa Clause comes in summer! Many people celebrate it in the beach. They enjoy Christmas to sing a Christmas Carol and have a barbecue.

Halloween★！

October 31 is Halloween!!! This festival is popular all over the world. I will tell you Halloween festival.

At first, why is called Halloween? November 1 is “All Saints' Day (Hallowmas)”. So, October 31 is the eve of that day＝All Hallow Eve. Then it is called Halloween. Originally, this festival is a religion behavior of Celtic about 2,000 years ago. People believed that people who died come to life in this day. In Japanese, this day is like “Obon”.

Speaking of Halloween, Dressing up, Trick or Treat, Pumpkin!!! First is dressing up. Ancient people believed that dead people come back to life. So they get children to dress up and intend to drive off them. Second is “Trick or Treat”. People prepared treat as an offering to calm down ghosts. However, children wanted to get treat. So they began to say this word as a trick. Last is pumpkin. People make Jack-o-Lantern. It is the lantern of pumpkin. This is also for driving off ghosts.

Now, Halloween party held all over the world. Children and adults enjoy this festival. In Japan, this is not custom, but it is celebrated in many theme parks.
