Lesson I

 

A. Listen and read.

A person's birthday is a special day. This is the date when the person was born. 

People around the world celebrate birthdays in different ways. In many countries, 

people celebrate with a cake. There are candles on the cake. There is one 

candle for each year of the person's life. People sing a song for the person. 

At the end of the song, the person blows out the candles.

 

In some countries, there is often a party for a child's birthday. The child's 

friends come to the home. There is special food, like sweets. The children 

play games and sing. The friends often bring a birthday gift for the child. 

The gifts are wrapped in colourful paper. The gift may be a toy, a book 

or some clothes. In some countries, the friends don't bring gifts. The 

most important thing is to enjoy the day and spend time with friends and

family.
