Gift giving is an important practice that can show a number of different meanings. Here are some gift giving traditions from a few different countries.
◆In Zimbabwe
In Zimbabwe, it is common to ask for a gift straightly. When a gift has been bought even without asking for it, the worst thing you can do is to refuse the offering, even if the giving family is poor.
◆In Japan
The Japanese place a great importance on the act of gift giving. For example, people don't like uncovered money. So whether you're sending money as a gift or just leaving a tip (小费), put your money in an envelope (信封).
◆In India
As left hands are considered unclean in Indian culture, acts such as touching, passing money, or giving gifts must be done with your right hand.
◆In Russia
Vodka (伏特加酒) might seem a perfect gift for a Russian, but in fact, a lot of them would see it as an unimaginative gift. Many even think the idea is terrible.
◆In Ireland
Don't be astonished if your gift is refused a couple of times in Ireland. This tradition comes from a time when they didn't have enough potatoes to eat in the 1840s, and because of this, the receivers are making sure that you can really part from the thing that you are offering.
Joyce was born in a poor family. Next Friday would be her mother's birthday. Joyce wanted to buy something for her mother, but she had no money. As an 8-year-old girl, she couldn't do part-time jobs. What could she do to make enough money for her mother's birthday present?
Suddenly she had an idea. Usually, she would go straight to school, but this morning, she didn't. She walked along the streets, picking up cardboard（纸板）, plastic（塑料）bottles and cans（易拉罐). When it was time for school, she put them in the backyard（后院）and ran to school as quickly as possible.
Eight days later, she decided to sell all the things she had collected（收集）because the next day was her mother's birthday. She had to sell them and buy a birthday present for her mother. In the shop, she bought a beautiful hair pin for her mother.
When her mother got the present, she said with tears(眼泪) in her eyes, "This is the best gift I've ever received."
How to clear out your old things and make some money at the same time. A yard sale may be just the best way. Yard sales are easy to plan. You can start by collecting things for sale. Search boxes and shelves for things you don't need any more. And here are some tips which may help you.
•It can be hard to part with things, even if you never use them. If you haven't used something for over a year, it probably means that you will never use it any more.
•Sell anything you don't want or use anymore like clothes that don't fit you, dishes that you never use, outdated (过时的) board games that you've played, soft toys, and other unwanted things.
•People will buy just about anything. While there are certain hot sellers like children's toys and old tools. Don't be afraid to try to sell things that you can't imagine anyone buying. The worst thing is that nobody buys it and you'll have to throw it away.
•Make sure the things are clean and not broken to keep them from hurting others. You might be surprised. Many people will buy broken cookers (炊具), old doors and other things you may consider putting out for free.
