Everyone loves gifts! But each
country has different customs.
As a European(欧洲人) living in China, I've seen some interesting differences from home. For example, in China, people often give fruit and milk during festivals, besides visiting people. In Europe, people give them only when they visit sick people in the hospital.
Many Europeans open their gifts right away, although not in places like Germany. It's also important to take off the price tag(标签) before giving the gift.
What if(如果……怎么办) you don't like your gift? In Spain, you still need to say you love the gift so you don't hurt the other person's feelings.
How the gift looks is also important. However, by using wrapping paper(包装纸) for every gift we buy, we make a lot of waste. Now, many are choosing newspaper or maps as wrappings paper because these can help the environment.
Do Europeans give money as gifts? Yes. Polish couples, for example, often request cash(现金) at weddings(婚礼) to pay for the cost of the venue(场地) and meals.
Finally, remember: Whatever gifts you give, it's not important. The thought(心意) is important, not the size or the price of the gift.
1. What do Polish couples use the money from weddings for?(不超过10词)
2 -4. Fill in the blanks according to the passage.

5. 新考向 开放性问答 What gift would you like to give to someone from another culture? Why?(不超过15词)
