October Gate brings a classic mix of cool facts and interesting topics. How Americans celebrate Halloween, which decorations and sweets are popular, all that you can read in the article of our correspondent, Emily Prucha. The Halloween atmosphere can also be found in Roald Dahl’s horror story, The Landlady, in which the author uncovers the strange personality of the landlady. In our series on the origins of English-speaking peoples, we take a closer look at the major ethnic and racial groups that make up the American nation today. In addition, you can read the story of tennis player Naomi Osaka, learn about the dangers of processed food, or about the Italian band Måneskin, the winner of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. And for lovers of the English language, we have a double page of words that students often get wrong, as well as a sample B1 level test, PET for Schools.

Have a great time with Gate magazine.
