1. What do you think of the role of museums?
1. 博物馆的作用是什么？
Frankly speaking,I don't go to museums very often. I think museums are places where we can see collections. They tell us history vividly. Some museums are used as an education bases for primary schools.
坦白地说，我不是经常去博物馆，在博物馆我们可以看到很多收藏品，它们生动地告诉我们昨天发生的事。有些博物馆也是小学的教育基地。
2. What gifts have you sent to your friends?
2. 你送给过朋友什么礼物？
I often sent books as gifts to my friends. Sometimes I will send CDs or DVDs to the friends who like listening to music or watching movies. I think these gifts can be kept for a long time.
我总是送书给我朋友作为礼物，有时我也送那些喜欢音乐或喜欢看电影的朋友CD或 DVD。我觉得这些礼物可以保存很久。
3. Do you like sending computers,televisions or such things to your friends?
3. 你会送计算机或者电视这样的东西给朋友吗？
No,of course not. I am a student and don't earn money. I don't think it is good to send expensive gifts to friends. Gifts are the representation of friendship. As long as you have sincere wishes and regards,it doesn't matter what objects you send.
当然不会，我只是个学生还没有挣钱呢，我不认为非要送一些贵的东西给朋友。礼物是友谊的象征，只要你有这份真诚的祝愿和关心，不管你送什么都没关系的。
4. What are the differences between westerners and Chinese in sending gifts?
4. 西方人和中国人在送礼物上有什么不同？
I don't think there are many differences between westerners and Chinese. People send gifts on some special occasions or to express appreciations. But I think westerners seldom send food as gift,except wine or chocolate? And Chinese always unpack the gift after the guests leave, which is different from westerners.
我觉得中国人与西方人在送礼物这方面并没有多大的区别，人们在特殊的日子里或未为了表达敬意才送礼物。但是我觉得西方人很少送吃的东西，除了酒和巧克力以外。而中国人总喜欢在客人离开后打开礼物，这跟西方人的做法不太一样。
