奥巴马演讲视频：奥巴马夫妇准备在白宫庆祝万圣节

（单词翻译:单击）

Heather Cooper: Okay, what I'm doing today is, I am putting together a topiary.

We have four of these that are going up.

We have almost all volunteers.

I would say by the end of the weekend, you will have seen almost upwards¹ of 60 people total that will have volunteered their time to make Halloween great.

The President and First Lady went out and chose some pumpkins² that they wanted to be made.

The President: Or, what about this one right here?

This one...

We've got to carve it up.

The First Lady: No -- yeah, I think we're going to carve one.

I think this could be a good one.

The kids would love this.

Sarah Martin:

The President picked out these pumpkins and we just picked out the best patterns that we had found for the trick-or-treating; this is the results.

Heather Cooper: Well, we have so many pumpkins coming, so we have to make sure that those are special amidst all of the other pumpkins.

Susie Morrison: We are packing, right now, the cookies for the Halloween trick-or-treaters on the North Portico³ that the President and First Lady will be there to hand out.

The President: Come on, Spiderman!

How are the droopy ears?

Whoa!

Oh, a fairy!

Hey, bug⁴!

Good to see you, bug.

Susie Morrison: Inside each bag, we have the White House that is dipped in a lovely orange color this year.

We have 1,400 more to cut out, bake, dip and do the same thing.

We have the Presidential M&M's.

And then, of course, we have some assorted⁵ dried fruit.

It's so exciting; the children are just so full of such excitement when they come up and see the President and the First Lady and know that they're getting a special treat from the White House.
