III. Topics for Discussion

1. During the Ghost Festival, many families
and businesses in Taiwan make offerings
of food to good brothers and burn
ghost money. Floating paper lanterns is
also a traditional activity. People often
prepare an annual feast for ghosts and
then use paper lanterns to lead them to it.
As for Halloween in the United States
today, American children usually dress up
in costumes and go trick-or-treating on
this day. Adults also dress up for costume
(Octavio Paz) parties on this night.
2. (1) Yes, I believe in ghosts. I think every
human being is made up of a body and
a spirit. The body is where the spirit
lives, and the spirit lives on when the
body dies. I have heard several real
ghost stories, and some people I know
have seen ghosts or spirits as well.
Thus, I do believe in ghosts and
spirits.
