It is fun to give friends something on their birthdays. Tim and Bob like to give each other funny things. On Bob's birthday, Tim gives him shoes with peanuts(花生)in them. Bob says:
"I want to give Tim something funny, too."
When Tim's birthday comes. Bob gives him a big box. Tim opens it. In the box there is a bank(储蓄罐)that looks like a duck. The duck has a hat on its head. Tim and Bob both laugh.
