Although the people hosting the meal are very likely to pay the check, it is a common practice to make an effort to pay the bill, but you will embarrass them if you do end up actually chipping in (凑) some cash.In recent years, going Dutch has been accepted by many young people.

But what if we have been wrong all along and that we could turn things around, which no
28、t only made gift buying easier, but the recipient happier?In 2015, psychologists Lauren Human and Lara Aknin conducted an online survey, which suggested that when people buy gifts, they prefer to choose something based on the recipients personality and tastes. Most people also said that they preferr
29、ed receiving gifts bought with them in mind: gifts for them.But Human and Aknin wondered if this approach to giving failed to take advantage of the way we connect as people. So they sent 78 volunteers into a shopping centre before Mothers Day. Half were told to buy a card that “reveals(揭示) your know
30、ledge of the recipient” while the others set out to buy a card that “reveals your true self”. After the purchase, the givers who had thought partly of themselves reported feeling emotionally closer to their mothers.To find out how the approach is received by recipients, the psychologists did another
31、 test, asking more than 100 students to choose a song on iTunes to give to a friend, partner or family member. Each half of the group received the same instructions as the card buyers. Results revealed that the recipients of songs which revealed something of the givers felt closer to them than those
32、 who received gifts bought only with them in mind.Human and Aknin suggest it might apply to all gifts. “If building stronger social connections is the underlying (潜在的) goal” of a gift and surely it should bethen we “may well be advised to offer more self-reflective gifts”. In short, for a present to
33、 be meaningful, you need to give away a bit of yourself, even if there is a risk that the gift might not so closely suit the recipients practical needs or tastes as one gift gained purely with that in mind.Moreover, giving something of oneself can be a safer act, the psychologists added. Because it
34、reduces the risk of revealing poor knowledge of a recipient by attempting to buy something that fits their characterand failing.But a note of caution here: what the research does not examine is the potential risk in repeated, unsympathetic giver-centered giving, which, according to Human and Aknin “
35、could signal self-obsession” and nobody wants to reveal that about themselves.31From the Mothers Day card test, we can conclude that _.Agifts chosen with the giver in mind work well on the giverBmost people choose gifts with the recipient in mindCmost people choose gifts based on their personal tast
36、esDgifts chosen with the recipient in mind work well on the recipient32What do the underlined words “them, them” refer to in order of appearance?AThe recipients; the givers.

41、ve the quality of their work. 38 They hit deadlines and they constantly improve the work they do.Maladaptive perfectionists, on the other hand, are never really satisfied with their achievements. 39 Because of this and because they do so much rework, they can spend a very long time delivering any wo
