answer: #Person1# asks Susan about her Halloween costume plan but Susan is from China and doesn't celebrate Halloween. She then tells #Person1# about Chinese ghost festival customs. Susan says China has an entire ghost month and people set off firecrackers and prepare food to feed ghosts.
documents: #Person1#: Hey Susan, what are you coming as this year?
  #Person2#: Coming as?
  #Person1#: Yeah. . . for Halloween! We have a big office party tomorrow evening. There's a prize for best costume!
  #Person2#: Um. . . I have to confess, I haven't given it much thought. I'm from China and Halloween really isn't celebrated there.
  #Person1#: Really! You don't have some kind of Chinese ghost festival?
  #Person2#: Oh. . . Sure. We have an entire month! In traditional Chinese culture, Ghost Month is a period when the door between this world and beyond opens up and ghosts come back to earth for a visit.
  #Person1#: Cool! A whole month! What do you do during that month?
  #Person2#: Well, people sometimes set off firecrackers, some people burn paper money as an offering and many people go to a temple to burn incense. Mainly though, you need to feed the ghosts because they're hungry.
  #Person1#: Feed them?
  #Person2#: Yeah. . . we set up tables with food, fruit and drinks and offer that to the hungry ghosts.
  #Person1#: And then later everyone eats the food?
  #Person2#: Yes! How did you guess that?
  #Person1#: It makes sense, right? Who else is going to eat it?
  #Person2#: Good Point!
  #Person1#: But no dressing up like ghosts, right?
  #Person2#: No! So. . . is Halloween essentially the same thing as ghost month?
