Last weekend, 1. visitors to the New York 2. Botanical Garden had a real VISIT/BOTANY
treat. That's because in 3. addition to admiring the 4. beautiful exhibits, ADD/BEAUTY
they got a chance to see the Michelangelo of pumpkin 5. carvers, Ray CARVE
Villafane. The team of pumpkin 6. carvers began the weekend with a CARVE
7. demonstration at the city's Grand Central Station, where thousands of DEMONSTRATE
8. commuters got a chance to see them sculpt a grotesquely large pumpkin COMMUTE
into an amazingly detailed Halloween zombie. They then moved their
efforts to the garden, where they continued their 9. scary creations. The SCARE
10. carvings are part of the garden's annual Haunted Pumpkin Garden CARVE
11. Festival. While the pumpkin maestro is now 12. famous for his extraordinary FESTIVE/FAME
carving talents, Ray's path to this 13. unusual hobby was quite 14. accidental. USUAL/ ACCIDENT
After graduating he decided to pursue a career as an art 15. teacher. Then he TEACH
decided to try his hand at 16. professional sculpting - not 17. boring wax PROFESSION/ BORE
figures, but fun Marvel characters. He was so good that he left his 18. teaching TEACH
job and joined DC comics as a full-time 19. sculptor of wax prototypes of SCULPT
toys and 20. action figures. Though pumpkin carving remained his 21. favourite ACT/ FAVOUR
hobby, only the locals knew how good he was until 2007, when he was invited to Food 22. competition which he won. Today, Ray's Halloween pumpkins COMPETE
are world-known.
