characters. When children see them, they want to buy!
For products like sneakers, coffee, and perfume, they choose famous / strange actors and athletes. We
like to buy the things that these people use.
Companies use other tools / tunes for selling, too. Things we can read or hear. For example, they use
slogans/advertisements. They're catchy phrases we can't forget when we think about a product.

Exercise 1:
Good luck around the world

Around the world, there are a number of different traditions that form part of the culture and can represent
either good or bad fortune. It is fascinating to learn about these different habits and how they change from
place to place.

In the UK, for example, the number 13 is unlucky and many people change the number of their house so that it
is not this number. The number 7, on the other hand, is usually seen as fortunate and many people choose
this number when gambling or entering a competition. Another thing to avoid in the UK is walking under
ladders, as this is usually seen as bad luck, as is breaking a mirror.

In China, the rituals are a little different. The numbers 6 and 8 are said to bring great health, wealth and overall
happiness, as opposed to the number 4 which is most definitely unlucky. Also in China, the colour red is one of
the most popular colours because they believe it may bring success.

In Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries, the number 15 is considered lucky, whereas in Sweden the
number 3 is thought to bring the best fortune as "good things come in threes".

As can be seen, no matter where in the world you may be, there are sure to be a number of traditions and
customs that bring with them a certain element of good or bad fortune.
