As everyone knows, different countries have different customs in giving gifts. 
In China you must never give a clock to a Chinese person, because the sound of the word for “clock” is similar to the sound of “death”. Also, don’t wrap (用……包裹) a present in white, black, or blue paper, because they are the colors for funerals (葬禮). Don’t give a knife, because something sharp can cut a friendship.
In Russia if you give flowers as gifts, you have to give an odd number of them (one, three, five, etc.) because even numbers of flowers are for funerals. 
In Germany if you are invited to dinner, flowers are good gifts to take to your dinner hostess (女主人), but don’t take her red roses because it means you are in love with her. Don’t take thirteen of anything because it’s an unlucky number. Don’t take an even number of anything, either. Don’t wrap your presents in white, brown, or black paper.

This was an ordinary day, nothing special. Mike was walking on the street when he turned to the shop on the corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt happy to see that the pair of shoes he wanted very much was still there. He looked down at his old shoes, and he felt sorry for himself, because he wanted very much to own them for his coming birthday.
  Sadly, the boy walked away, deep in thought—how to tell his mother about it. He knew very well his mother had very little money. He decided not to go home at once, because he looked sad and his mother would notice it. So he went to the park and sat on the grass. There he saw a boy moving a wheelchair with his hands. Mike looked at him and was surprised to see that the boy had no feet. He looked at his own feet. “It’s much better to be without shoes than without feet.” he thought. There was no reason for him to feel so sorry and sad. So he went away with a smile, thinking that he was much luckier and happier.
