Last week Lu visited England.He stayed with my grandmother.He said it was a strange visit.“I don t understand,but I frightened(使害怕)your grandmother a lot.When I arrived,I gave her a purse from Suzhou,she looked in it and asked me to take it back.Then I saw a red spider on the table so I killed it for her and she seemed very unhappy.Do English people like spiders?
“Later we went shopping.Someone was painting a shop front,so there was a ladder(梯子).Grandmother stopped me from walking under it and said I must walk around it.I liked the shops and bought some lovely rose soap(肥皂)for my mother,a smart umbrella for my father and some new shoes for myself.When we got back,I put the shoes on the table and opened the umbrella to check if it was all right.Your grandmother came in and screamed(尖叫)!”
“Then I broke a small mirror in the bathroom.Your grandmother s face went white.I felt very sorry.When I left I gave your grandmother some flowers.She counted and there were l 3.She didn t like it.I think she was happy l was going.” I explained to Lu,“My grandmother follows the old customs(习俗).You must not give someone an empty purse or they will have no money.You must not kill a money spider or the same will happen.Also it is very unlucky to walk under a ladder and to put new shoes on the table.An open umbrella in a house means someone will die.Breaking a mirror brings seven years
bad luck,and l 3 is also a very unlucky number.You were really making my grandmother very afraid.
