What you give your relatives and friends can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift―giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some connections between the kinds of things brought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives what and why.
The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they‟re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are. ”Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment(赞美). On the other hand, a gift of clothing that doesn’t match your personality could be an insult(侮辱)to your character.
Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries today. If you receive a homemade gift, you‟re lucky. It m ay not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. They‟ve given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.
A person who thinks of food when thinking of gifts is a good example of what human warmth means. Whether you give a box of chocolate, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.
People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.
你给你的亲人和朋友可以帮助你更好地了解自己。还有，他们给你什么可以告诉你一些关于他们的个性。大多数的礼物―给（和）显示无非爱与友谊的精神。但这是有可能形成一些连接的东西带来的人谁买他们。这是一个给谁提供什么和为什么。
你穿的衣服会告诉你的个性。他们告诉世界不只是你想看到的，而是你如何看待自己。当有人给你一些与你的自我形象认同的东西时，他们会说：“我同意你的看法。我喜欢你的方式，你是。“这样的礼物应该被看成是一种恭维（赞美）。另一方面，一个不相称的衣服，你的个性的礼物可能是一种侮辱，（侮辱）你的性格。
在许多国家的今天，用手制造东西已经成为一个例外。如果你收到一份自制的礼物，你是幸运的。它可能不完美，但它会显示一定的质量的爱。他们有时间和情感，有创造力的重要特征。
当人们想到礼物时想到的一个人，就是一个很好的例子。无论你是给一盒巧克力，一袋
桔子，还是一个奶酪球，都带着同样的安慰和支持信息。
那些把书当作礼物的人，或者喜欢读书，也希望每个人都能想到。如果你碰巧得到了一本很大的书，它的给予者可能会对事情的方式更感兴趣，而不是他们实际的方式。当然，阅读是一种新事物的方式。给一本书可以是一种分享感觉或新学习的意义。这个给予者可能是想告诉你这本书对他说了什么。
