  2. Good morning, Ana:
    I think that the vocabulary or expressions are very difficult.
    For example:
    .- Trick-or-treating.
    .- Jack-o-lantern.

  4. Merce, cuidado con spelling de algunas palabras: "English-speaking" y the Celts (en inglés). También en la segunda parte "ghosts". Por lo demás great.

    Rosa, sé que el vocabulario es raro pero es para que os vaya sonando ya que es una parte importante de la cultura inglesa.

    Tino, great, excellent. In question number 3 I would say that
    "the Celts" is the best answer.
