     Many books have been written about "the art of giving". But what about "the art of receiving"? Sometimes,

receiving a gift can be difficult, especially when someone buys you a gift you don't want! (1)

     "I remember 我十二岁时我父母给我买了一个紫色的钱包(2)," laughs Guo Xiaojing. "It really made me

feel embarrassed, because to be honest, I thought the purse was really ugly! Still, I pretended (3)that I liked it

because I knew it would make my parents happy!"

     Han Ling agrees."That sounds like my grandparents! A few years ago, my grandparents gave me an orange

sweater for my birthday. I used to wear it every time I visited them, but when I left their house, I took it off!

Of course, this made me feel guilty. It was a very nice thought, but my grandparents have different taste from

me! 我认为给别人买衣服或别的私人用品是很难的(4)."

     To (5) make things easier, some people would rather just give money. In some cultures, however,

receiving money can make people uncomfortable."When someone gives me money, it just makes me think

they're being lazy," says John Wilson."In England, we have a saying: It's the thought that counts. When

someone gives me money, I feel they didn't think at all. I prefer to receive a gift that has some thought behind

it. I don't mind if it's something I don't need. If someone has thought about a gift for me, it always makes me

happy."

     Different people have very different thoughts on this subject! So maybe the art of receiving is even more

difficult than the art of giving!
