put on your own boots I didn t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence 信心 4 I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot Like most children I expected grown ups to

many of these celebrations in western cultures In addition special events such as one s first day of school or graduation from university often require gift giving 62 What is happening when we give gifts Most important we are exchanging gifts If someone gives me a gift for my birthday I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday A gift builds up or confirms a social obligation 义务 63 Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones People say that a gift lets the recipient 接受者 know we are thinking of them and that we want to make the person feel special We want people to feel wanted to feel part of our social or family group We give presents to say I m sorry Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like Sometimes we give things that we like or would feel comfortable with In all these cases the gifts are sending out messages often very expressive ones 64 People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way A woman whose mother had died years ago described the many gifts around her house These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years I appreciate these and they mean something to me the woman said Because I remember the occasions they were given on and that they were from my mother and the relationship we ve had The gifts remain and keep the relationship alive in mind This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others She hoped that the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come 65 Emotions 情感 like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving They prove that the anthropologist Claude Levi Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case Each gift is unique even if so many are given The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue 第三部分写作 共三节 满分 55
