  Everyone has his own birthday. People celebrate their birthdays in different countries in different ways. Now here are four people from different countries. They will tell us how they celebrate their birthdays in their countries.

  Sandy Morison comes from Madrid(馬德里). He says happily, My twenty-first birthday is on Saturday, and I'm going to go out with some friends. To wish me a happy birthday, they're going to pull on my ear 21 times, once for each year. It's an old custom. Some people pull on the ear just once, but my friends are very traditional.

  Mr and Mrs Sato are from Tokyo. Mr Sato is going to be 60 tomorrow. In Japan, the sixtieth birthday is called kanredi--it's the beginning of a new life. The color red is for a new life, so we always give something red for a sixtieth birthday. Mrs Sato says, What am I going to give my husband? I can't say. It's a surprise!

  Li Xiaomei from Beijing feels very excited and tells us, Tomorrow is my sixteenth birthday. It's a special birthday, so we're going to have a family party. I'm probably going to get some money in 'Lucky' envelopes from my relatives. My mother is going to cook noodles--noodles are for a long life.

  Phillip Evans, from Paris, smiles to us, I'm going to be 30 next week, so I'm going to invite three very good friends out to dinner. In France, when you have a birthday, you often invite people out. In some countries, I know it's the opposite--people take you out.
