We all know the feeling: you receive the kind of gift that you wouldn’t choose for yourself in a million years. But you have to grin and bear it pretending that you love your new present.
我们都有这样一种感触：当收到一件自己绝不会选择的礼物时，你仍要微笑接受并装作很喜欢这份新礼物的样子。
To avoid inflicting this experience on others, many people give gift vouchers at Christmas.
为了避免他人遭遇这种尴尬，很多人都会选择赠送圣诞礼券。
They simply go to a big store that they know the gift recipient likes, and buy them a voucher for the store.
他们只需要去一家销售对方心仪礼物的大商场，然后买下那里的购物礼券。
With this the recipient can buy whatever they like and everyone is spared embarrassment.
这样一来，接收者能买任何他喜欢的物品，完全避免了尴尬。
