查看习题详情和答案>>Gift ________ is different in different countries.
[ ]
Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person．
When giving gifts，sometimes color is important．For example，for many Chinese people around the world，red is a lucky color，and people often like to wrap（包装）gifts in this color．However，do you know that in Korea（朝鲜），red is a color of death? That is why you should not wrap gifts in this color if you are giving a gift to a Korean person．
What about western countries? In western countries，the color of wrapping paper is not really important．But color does matter when giving flowers，especially roses．You should not give red roses to a western person you don't know very well because they are a symbol（象征）of love．You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship．You could also send pink roses as girls to say thank you．
What other things should you remember when giving gifts to someone from a different culture? Well，one thing you should keep in mind is the person's religion（宗教）．When choosing a gift for a Muslim（回教徒的）or Jewish（犹太族的）friend，you should never get food including pork，or things made from pigskin．Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol（酒）．

Different countries have different gift-giving rules．You must never give a clock to a Chinese person, because the sound of the word for“clock”is similar to the word“death”in Chinese．Also, don't wrap a gift in white, black or blue because these are the colours for funerals(葬礼)．Don't give a knife, because something sharp can cut a relationship．
In Russia, if you give flowers as a gift, you have to give an odd number of them(one, three, five, etc．)because even numbers of flowers(two, four, six, etc．)are for funerals．
In Germany flowers are good gift to take to your hostess(女主人),but don't take red roses because it means you are in love with her．Don't take thirteen of anything because it's an unlucky number．Don't take even number of anything, either．Don't wrap your gift in white, brown, or black paper．
