II.CULTURAL SPOT

A) HALLOWEEN :PICTURES-INFORMATION-TRADITIONS

HISTORIA DE HALLOWEEN

Halloween es una fiesta de la cultura anglosajona que se celebra en la noche del día 31 de octubre.
Sus orígenes se remontan a los celtas, hace más de 2.500 años, cuando el año celta terminaba al final del verano, el día 31 de octubre de nuestro calendario (Samhain). El ganado era llevado de los prados a los establos para el invierno. Ese último día, se suponía que los espíritus podían salir de los cementerios y apoderarse de los cuerpos de los vivos para resucitar, pedirles alimentos y maldecirles. Les hacían víctimas de conjuros si no accedían a sus peticiones: me das algo o te hago una travesura, que es la traducción de "Trick or Treat" (Truco o Trato).

Para evitarlo, los poblados celtas ensuciaban las casas y las "decoraban" con huesos, calaveras y demás cosas desagradables, de forma que los muertos pasaran de largo asustados. De ahí viene la tradición de decorar con motivos siniestros las casas en la actual víspera de todos los santos y también los disfraces. Es así pues una fiesta asociada a la venida de los dioses paganos a la vida.
La iglesia de Roma decidió convertir la festividad al catolicismo. Se instituyó el 1 de noviembre como el Día de Todos los Santos, que en Inglaterra se denominó "All Hallows' Day", y la noche anterior "All Hallows' Eve" que posteriormente derivó en "Halloween".

La fiesta fue exportada a los Estados Unidos por emigrantes europeos en el siglo XIX, hacia 1846. Sin embargo no comenzó a celebrarse masivamente hasta 1921. Ese año se celebró el primer desfile de Halloween en Minnesota y luego le siguieron otros estados. La internacionalización de Halloween se produjo a finales de los años 70 y principios de los 80 gracias al cine y a las series de televisión.

En la actualidad los niños se disfrazan para la ocasión y pasean por las calles pidiendo dulces de puerta en puerta. Después de llamar a la puerta los niños pronuncian la frase "Truco o trato". Si los adultos les dan caramelos, dinero o cualquier otro tipo de recompensa, se interpreta que han aceptado el trato. Si por el contrario se niegan, los chicos les gastarán una pequeña broma.

Halloween es una fiesta basada en el miedo, la muerte, los muertos vivientes, la magia negra y los monstruos místicos. Los "personajes" que se suelen asociar a Halloween incluyen a los fantasmas, las brujas, los gatos negros, los trasgos, los banshees, los zombis y los demonios, así como ciertas figuras literarias como Drácula y el monstruo de Frankenstein.
Los celtas solían disfrazarse con pieles de animales el 31 de octubre y así no ser descubiertos por los espíritus que, según ellos, esa noche recobraban vida. De ahí la costumbre actual de disfrazarse ese día. Los colores tradicionales de Halloween son el negro de la noche y el naranja de las primeras luces del día. Los símbolos de Halloween también incluyen elementos otoñales como las calabazas y los espantapájaros.

B) THANKSGIVING DAY : CELEBRATIONS-TRADITIONS-PICTURES

History :The feast is closely related to the events of the first English settlement in the New World. In 1621 a group of Christian settlers, who later would be known as pilgrims traveled to America aboard the Mayflower ship. Disembarked in November, in the late autumn, on the coast of Massachusetts (on the east coast of the United States) to fulfill its purpose in establishing the Plymouth Colony. The harsh winter in these latitudes took them by surprise, without taking time to prepare for harsh conditions of deprivation and cold. Of the hundred pilgrims did not survive half of them. Those who did it, they had to fend for aid and food that natives of the area, the Wampanoag Indians, they provided.

In the fall of 1621, already in place and with the first crop harvested, the survivors decided to share their results with the Indians who helped them when they had no resources. The governor of the colony proclaimed "a day of thanksgiving to the Lord for us in a more special rejoice after having collected the fruit of our work."

This peaceful coexistence with the natives last few years, as the massive influx of European settlers and the occupation of the territories of growing indigenous people out of their ongoing. The result of such confrontamientos was the almost total extermination of the Wampanoag Indians. After the so-called King Philip's War in 1675, only survived 400.

Although the tradition dates from 1621 and has been held in one way or another since then, the celebration as an official holiday is more recent. In 1789, the first president of the United States, George Washington proclaimed the date as a national day of Thanksgiving. In 1863, Abraham Lincoln declared that the celebration should take place as a national holiday in the United States. However, it was not until 1941 that Congress set the date as a federal holiday.

Dinner family :Main article: Thanksgiving Dinner
Most people in the United States celebrate this holiday with family gatherings in their homes where they are preparing a banquet. In many houses is common to offer a prayer of thanks. The traditional main dish for dinner is a great roast turkey. This turkey traditionally accompanied with a filling made of corn bread and sage. It is traditionally served with a sauce or cranberry jelly red (in English "cranberry sauce"). Moreover often use vegetable dishes like green beans (green bean casserole), sweet potatoes and mashed sweet potato with a sauce made of the juice of turkey, as well as a multitude of desserts, and the pumpkin pie the most popular. They are also popular cake pacana and apple.

After dinner, the fun is seeing preferred American football matches on television and for others to take a nap. Most businesses and offices are closed on this day. Some stores, shopping malls, restaurants and bars are open. On Friday following the holiday is the traditional opening of the Christmas shopping season. This day is known as Black Friday. Stores and shops all offer discount prices and meets many people in shopping malls

III. ENGLISH SONG

My Heart Will Go On-[More Videos Celine Dion]

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Eleven more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One time I hold true to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Eleven more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
