小知识
Candy is a sugary sweet treat. Halloween is partly about dressing up in costumes, but mostly it's about the candy.
Your favorite candy may be sweet and fruity, or so sour you can barely stand to eat it. Other people prefer chocolate when it comes to candy. Candy is also a verb, meaning “coat with a sugary glaze,” — you might candy cherries or almonds. And when something's made of candy, the word becomes an adjective: “But it's only a candy cigarette!” The word comes from the Arabic qandi, with its Persian root quand, “cane sugar.”
