There39。s no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe（賄賂） him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we don39。t see the need for presents. Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn39。t. I don39。t often remember a friend39。s birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I39。d get unpleasant. But a present from a foreignerthat kind from his or her homelandwon39。t go wrong, except to government employees（政府職員） who can39。t be given presents. You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, It39。s so nice. Thanks… when you get Christmas or birthday presents. You may want to bring a bottle of wine（葡萄酒） or flowers to a dinner party, but you39。re never asked to. Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening. At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year—doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders—anyone who has often helped us.（1）What kind of presents don39。t Americans usually open in front of the givers?

Sometimes, on grey, rainy days, your mood level is lower than on bright, sunny days. Is this a coincidence（巧合）, or is there some science behind this? Would you like to know more about how the weather can affect how you feel? According to a recent study, there is a connection between weather and moods. Going to a warm place in the middle of winter can make our moods better. Pleasant weather has been proved to improve moods and memory. However, extremely hot weather can actually make us feel more tired and bored, spoiling our moods.In the study, people who spent time outdoors in warm weather were happier than those who spent all day inside.
