Birthday traditions(传统) are different around the world. In America, children often celebrate(庆祝) a birthday with a party. They give presents and have cakes and ice cream.
Children in Korea celebrate in a different way. They eat seaweed(海带) soup because it is healthy. They also eat rice cakes. Guests to the birthday party may wear traditional(传统的) clothes called hanbok.
At a birthday party in Canada, children look for a coin in the cake. When the children play party games, the child who finds the coin goes first.
It’s said that Germans are the first people to have birthday parties for children by their parents. Parents place a wooden birthday wreath(花环)with candles on the table. They light a tall candle in the middle, the "life" candle, every year until their child becomes 12 years old.

Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can’t sleep at night? Then you cannot pay enough attention during a test or in your study. If so, then you know that is stress. You are worried too much about something. The bad feeling in your mind can make you angry, sad, or scared, and can even give you a stomachache or a headache.
However, some kind of stress is good. Excitement might happen when you are called to give a speech at school. You feel nervous but excited. This kind of stress can help you to get things well done. And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand.
On the other hand, bad stress can last long if you are unable to come over your problems. You may not feel well, if your parents are having a quarrel, if a family member is badly ill, if you’re doing poorly at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you. And it can actually let you do worse in your daily life.
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly. Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends. Soon after that, you’ll probably get away with your stress.
