When Effendi was brought to him, the king shouted angrily, “Effendi, since (既然)you knew when my Minister would die, you must know the date of your own death. Say it out, or you’ll die today.”
Effendi looked at the king for a while. Then he answered, “But how can I know? I’ll die two days earlier than you.” The king was afraid that if he killed Effendi, he himself would die after that. He thought he must keep Effendi alive (活着) as long as possible, so he let Effendi go.

Giving a gift can mean a lot. It can be a way to deepen (加深) a friendship. Before you get a gift for someone, spend time really thinking about what makes him or her special. Think about their interests, hobbies, needs and happiest moments. For example, friends and families with children might love a special calendar that contains everyone’s birthday and other special dates and events.
For music fans, a CD filled (填充) with their favourite music always makes a special gift.
Spending time with loved ones is also a way to give them a gift. You might take that special person out for a birthday dinner at your favourite restaurant.
Making a gift for someone using your own skills is very special. It is much more meaningful than a store-bought gift and shows how much you care!
