话匣子英语:圣诞节礼物
Maura: Usually if it’s a close friend or family member, you might want to spend a little bit more money, but really it’s hard to say for sure. A lot of the time as well, people don’t exchange presents.
Harp: It’s usually an unspoken agreement with the person if you’re going to give them a gift or not.
Maura: Sometimes you might be surprised when someone gives you a gift that you weren’t expecting. I personally don’t exchange gifts with a lot of my friends. That’s because we don’t need to spend all that money. We don’t need to buy each other a gift, and we just spend time together instead, so a lot of people chose to do that.
Harp: Yeah. Same thing with my friends. Sometimes we’ll exchange presents that we’ve made for each other. One of my favourite gifts that my friend ever gave to me was a hand knit scarf, so she made it, it wasn’t expensive.
