Halloween takes place on the last day of October.Many people celebrate by wearing costumes and masks to make themselves look like somebody else.This year, popular masks include those that look like the two major candidates for president -- Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.Spirit Halloween is a company that sells Halloween costumes.It paid for a survey of 2,000 adults.It reported that 55 percent said they would choose the Trump mask and 45 percent the Clinton mask.
10月31日是万圣节。人们穿上奇装异服、戴上面具扮成别人的样子来庆祝万圣节。今年，类似于两位主要的总统候选人——希拉里·克林顿和唐纳德·特朗普的面具特别流行。“幽灵万圣节”是一家售卖万圣节服装的公司。该公司对2000名成年人做了一项调查。调查报告称55%的受访者称他们会选择特朗普面具，剩下的45%则会选择希拉里面具。

Spirit Halloween said the number one reason people gave for choosing a Trump mask was to be funny.The top reason people gave for choosing a Clinton mask was because they liked her.Some stores are selling a Halloween set with one Clinton mask and one Trump mask. The set sells for about $38. It is being marketed as the perfect costume for husbands and wives or people undecided about who to vote for in the November 8th election.The “political masks” will be competing with masks and costumes that look like characters from popular culture.
幽灵万圣节公司称，人们选择特朗普面具的最大原因是看起来很好笑。选择希拉里面具的最大原因是他们喜欢她。一些商店正在售卖万圣节套装，套装包括一个希拉里面具和一个特朗普面具，售价38美元。对夫妻们和不知道在11月8日的总统大选中选谁的人来说，市面上这套套装是他们万圣节服装的最佳选择。这种“政治面具”将成为流行文化中人物造型面具和服装的强劲对手。

Daniel Kelly teaches philosophy at Purdue University in Indiana.He has become an expert on why people like to dress up in frightening costumes and watch frightening movies.Kelly said Halloween is fun for people of all ages because everyone knows it is all about people dressing up to look frightening.“You’re not actually in danger,” Kelly said. “The guy with the axe isn’t actually going to kill you.”Some people add frightening things to their homes -- such as the zombies in the front yard of the Buffaloe family in Alexandria, Virginia.“You can let your imagination run wild,” said Will Buffaloe.“It’s the one time of the year where you’re allowed to sort of let loose and be kind of crazy.”I’m Bruce Alpert.
