When you attend a party, will you think about some questions about that, such as when does the name "party" appear? Where does the name come from? Who gives the name? And what is its history? These questions are not necessary for us, we also don't need to know much about it but I think that we should know a little about "party".
In western people's eyes, party is their masquerade. For example,halloween festival. At this day, they will buy many masks and make pumpkin lanterns. They decorate themselves as ghosts to frighten others. Most os us know these custom and tradition. However we don't know his origin. Today, let me tell you some information about it.
According to legend, 2500 years ago, the Celtic people who are living in Ireland thought the October 31st as the last day of every year. The November 1st is the first day of the new year but also a symbol of the winter. Celtic people believed in this old and new transfer of night, the death of God Samhain with the invisible soul to return to earth to be reborn after finding a substitute, they lighted torch, the burning of animal as a tribute to the god of death, the family priest also presided over the ceremonies. So, this is the origin of Halloween party.
In modern life, party become different forms, such as cocktail party and ceremony party. We all like to take part in the party because we can wear beautiful party dresses at that time, what's more, we also can make many friends.
