M:What is the biggest holiday that your family celebrates?For my family,it’s the New Year.

W:That is a big one for us,too.But even more important are birthdays.

M:Oh,why is that?

W:I think my grandparents started the tradition.They met and got married when they were older.They thought they would not be able to have children.When their first baby was born,they were so happy! They decided that every birthday for their children would be a big event.

M:So that tradition passed on to your parents?

W:Right.Even now,my parents take the day off work to celebrate my birthday with me.My mother cooks a special dinner,and my father gives me beautiful clothes or jewelry.

W:How was your summer trip?

M:It was great! My friend and I travelled throughout India.

W:Sounds hot.How did you get along without studying the local language?

M:Most people there speak English.But there were some remote places in the mountains where we had to learn a few words to communicate.Usually,it was easy.One time,though,it got a little awkward.I was asking a baker for some bread,and I said “I want money” instead of “I want bread”.The words for money and bread were so similar that I got them mixed up.

W:How did the baker react?

M:He looked a little scared but my friend quickly cleared up the confusion.We ended up becoming friends with the guy,and he introduced us to more young people.Whenever we told the story of our meeting,it would make everyone laugh.

W:What’s that on your face,Dad?You scared me! I thought you were someone who broke into the house!

M:It’s mud.It’s good for my skin.

W:You mean,you just went out in the backyard and picked up some mud from the ground,and then put it on your face?

M:No,I bought some mud online.It comes from The Dead Sea in the Middle East.Do you see the colour?It’s a beautiful grey because of its many minerals.The mud in the backyard is mainly brown.And the soil is black.The Dead Sea is famous for its healthy benefits.People go there from all over the world to swim in its water.Many companies ship the mud to people like me,who can’t take a trip there.

W:Does your face really feel different after you take the mud off?

M:Yes,it feels my skin is many years younger.Some of my wrinkles are even going away.Do you want to try it?

W:Well,I’m only sixteen years old.I don’t think I need to feel younger.

M:But I’ve noticed your face is very oily sometimes,and that other times it’s very dry.The mud is sure to help you with that.It clears up your skin and leaves your face looking bright and fresh.

W:I’ll try it.I’ve been feeling bad about my looks lately.Maybe this will help!
