　　Sally was a student．It was going to be her mother’s birthday．She wanted to buy her a present that would be nice and useful but not expensive．

　　A week before her mother’s birthday，she went shopping after a quick and simple lunch．When she had been looking for half an hour，she found a shop that was selling cheap umbrellas，and decided to take a black one，since her mother had lost hers the month before．

　　She thought．“You could carry that when you are wearing clothes of any colour．”So she decided to buy a lovely black umbrella and took it back to the school with her until her classes had finished．

　　On her way back home in the train that evening she felt hungry because she had such a small lunch that she went along to the buffet car(餐車)for another sandwich and a cup of coffee．She had left the black umbrella above her seat in the compartment(車廂)，but when she got back，it had gone！When she had left the compartment，there had been no other passengers in it，but now there were three．

　　Sally began to cry when she saw that the umbrella was no longer there．The other passengers felt very sorry for her and asked what the matter was．She told them that the black umbrella she had bought for her mother was gone，and that she had to get out at the next station．After the three other passengers heard it，they asked her for her mother’s address so that they could send the umbrella to her if someone had taken it by mistake，and brought it back after Sally had got out of the train．

　　The next week，Sally heard from her mother．It said，“Thank you very much for your lovely presents，but why did you send me three black umbrellas？”

　　If you stay in an Indian home, bring something from your home country as a gift．Although it is not expected, it would be much appreciated．But find out the social position and religion of your hosts before you choose the gift．A bottle of foreign whisky would be the perfect gift for some, and not at all suitable for others．If you know the people you are going to stay with, it is a good idea to ask them what they would like．Some things are just not available in India．

　　It is not necessary to bring a gift when you are invited to dinner．After all, you are the honored guest．Until recently, it would have been almost disgusting to bring sweets or a bottle of wine．But this is not true today．Nowadays it is a custom which is becoming popular with many Indians．Fruit, flowers of a box of sweets are perfect gifts on such occasions, and will offend no one．

　　In all classes of socially, both in the city and in the country, food is only taken to the mouth with the right hand．This is the most important part of the etiquette of eating in India．When you watch Indians eat you will see that they keep their left hand on their lap．

　　If you are stuck for a conversation topic in India, talk about families．Another useful subject to start with is cricket(板球)．But once you get to know a person better, any topic is acceptable．Indians love to talk about politics and religion．They enjoy heated discussions and not just polite conversations．Conversation is an art form and people take the time to really talk．
