　　21.Gift

　　1. How often do you buy others gifts?

　　2. Do you like to send others expensive gifts?

　　No, I never send my friends something expensive as a gift. Maybe expensive gift in somebody’s eyes better expresses your love and care towards her, but it also brings about a lot of pressure on your friends for receiving it. In my opinion, the simple but heartily elected gifts are enough.

　　3. What kind of gifts are popular in your country?

　　It depends on the age and gender of people giving and receiving gifts. For example, women over 25 might choose cosmetics for their female friends and belts or wine for male friends. People in 40s or 50s generally receive health care products as gifts. Customs in certain areas will also affect the gifts people choose.

　　4. Why do people send gifts?

　　Sending gifts is a social tradition for people to enhance relationships with others. When people give someone gifts, it means that they take this relationship seriously and have never left the receivers behind their mind. Also, the young send gifts to the old to show their respect and care about the life and body of the old.
