When do you give gifts or presents in your country?
在你们，人们一般何时赠送礼物？

规划师点题 口语

“礼物”话题是一直循环出现的，旧题库中多出现于Part 1部分。与birthday话题联系考查。在近期的考题中怕向于出现在Part 2中.如"A gift you gave to a friend".对于这种话题，回答思路可来用“总分式”结构。

示例1	When it comes to some special festivals and special occasions, people usually give gifts, such as birthdays, weddings, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Father's Day. 当一些特殊的节日来临时或在一些特殊场合.人们通常都会赠送礼物，比如生日、婚札、圣诞节、情人节、母亲节和父亲节。
示例2	In our country, there are many occasions to give gifts. We usually send gifts to each as a kind of sincere blessing. And there are some conventional rules for giving gills. For example, you shouldn't give a clock to somebody, because "sending a clock" has the same pronunciation as "the end of life" in Chinese. 在我们，很多场合下都会赠送礼物。我们通常赠送礼物给彼此以表达真诚的祝福，但同时，赠送礼物也有一些传统习俗。比如，你不能给别人赠送钟表，因为在中文里“送钟”和“送终”发音一样。
示例3	Well, Chinese people send gifts on many festivals and occasions: house warming, graduation days, wedding anniversaries. In particular, most gifts are exchanged during the Spring Festival, which is a traditional festival celebrating the Chinese lunar new year. 嗯，中人会在很多节目和场合中赠送礼物:新房搬迁、毕业日、结婚纪念日等。尤其是在春节期间，大会彼此赠送很多礼物。春节是庆祝中农厉新年的传统节日。

亮点表达
sincere blessing 真诚的祝福

规划师点题 口语
对于此类问题，开门见山，正面回答。先给出是否带礼物的回复以及礼物种类，基本一至两句话就可以，但在原因或意义上要适当扩展。思路可从送礼物的对象、场合进行细节分析。

示例1	Well, I guess it will be more thoughtful to do so. Most people see it's a kind act if you bring a *all gift when visiting someone. It shows that you appreciate being there. Just like an old saying goes "Courtesy demands reciprocity, which signifies bringing gifts to each other is a good way to sustain the friendship. 是的，在我看来这样会更砧心。当去看望或拜访某人时，带一个小礼物过去，大部分人都会认为是一个友好的表现。同时，也能够让对方感觉你很愿意到里做客。正如一句古话所说，“礼尚往来”，意思是互相赠送礼物也是维系友情的一种好方式。
示例2	Definitely! However, it also depends on to whom I send the gifts during visiting. If it is for the elderly people, some healthcare products and multifunctional massagers would be suitable choices. If it is for the young people, they fancy those hi-tech products like iPad, PSP or some latest chic things. Actually, it's the thought that counts. 当然会送。但是，也要考虑拜访时我要送给谁礼物。如果拜访老年人.计划健产品或者多功能*仪则是更为合适的我选择。如果去年轻朋友的里，会考虑他们更喜欢高科技产品.比如iPad和游戏机等近时髦的东西。事实上，礼物的选择重要的是让对方感觉到你的心意。
示例3	I prefer to send gifts when visiting someone's home. If I have an invitation to a house warming party, I will bring something that can be used to decorate their new home. If I am invited for dinner, I will bring a basket of fruit or home-made food there to show my care and love. 去别人拜访时我都会送礼物。如果受邀去庆祝新搬迁，我一般都会带一件能装饰新的礼物。如果是受邀去里吃饭，一般都会带一篮子水果或自做的食物过去，以显示我的重视和喜爱。
