People usually give gifts to their family members and friends in daily life. But some gifts are not proper. In different countries, there are different gift taboos (禁忌). What are those in China? Chinese people usually don’t give a clock to each other. A clock sounds like “zhong” in Chinese, which means “over”. So giving someone a clock is like saying “Your time is up.” People would think it is unlucky, especially the elder. Giving pears or an umbrella is not a good idea, either. A pear sounds like “li” in Chinese. An umbrella sounds like “san” in Chinese. They are not good gifts. The color of the gifts is a key point, too. If you want to give a hat to someone, you can’t pick a green one, especially for a man. If you want to buy clothes for the elder, you’d better not choose black because it means “death”. What is a safe gift then? Money is the answer! Hongbao with money in it is the common gift in China. People give hongbao to show their love. People put some lucky money in hongbao. Six and eight are lucky numbers in China.21. Different countries have the same gift taboos. 22. It’s lucky to give someone a clock as a gift. 23. An umbrella sounds like “san” in Chinese. 24. If you want to give a man a hat, you can choose green. 25. Giving hongbao with 66 yuan in it is proper on your friend’s birthday. (★★★) People in Guangxi have three “subjects” in their life. Singing folk songs is Subject One. Eating rice noodles is Subject Two. And dancing is Subject Three. Recently, the “Kemusan” dance or “Subject Three” dance has become widely known on the Internet. You may know the “Kemusan” dance is from a man who danced at a driving test. But it’s not true. In fact, it comes from a lively wedding (婚礼) celebration. People dance to music that sounds like a mix of western disco and Chinese folk singing. Now you can see videos of men and women, old and young performing the “Kemusan” dance. They dance in different places and then share their vid。
