4. Summarize the different attitudes held by Japanese and Americans towards

5. Detail study of the passage

① Key words ,expressions & difficult sentences

⑴ gift giving: here is a compound adjective, made up of a noun and a verb’s

present participle. It could also be a gerund form. The relationship between the

two parts is that of verb-object (warm the heart).

Similar structures are: thanks-giving, peace-loving, stamp-collecting,

English-speaking, job-hunting, mountain-climbing.

⑵ People’s attitudes towards gift giving may vary from country to country,

even though the desire to convey a feeling of friendship is often universal. (Para. 1)

Analysis: "even though" is a conjunction, leading a concessive clause, so that a

contrast is made between vary from country to country and universal.

* even if, even though 表示“即使……”，“纵使……”之意。

even if: used for emphasizing that although something may happen or may be

true, another situation remains the same

even though: used for introducing a fact that makes the main statement in

your sentence very surprising

这两个复合连词的意思基本相同。它们常可互换使用，但意义有细微差别。 even if

引导的让步从句含有强烈的假定性，而even though引导让步状语句时，是以从句的内容

为先决条件的，也就是说，说话人肯定了从句的事实。

Even if he is poor, she loves him. (=He may be poor, yet she loves him.)

即使他很穷，但她还是爱他。

Even though he is poor, she loves him. (=He is poor, yet she loves him. )

尽管他很穷，但她还是爱她。

⑶ Here is: 这里有

weather.

b. It is not unusual in China to give respect to the old.

⑸ tend: be likely to

tend to do sth.

⑹ substantial: adj. large enough to be satisfactory

a ~ meal

⑺ However, at least in the typical Japanese style, it is not required to attach a

thank-you note or card to the gift. (Para. 2)

Analysis: a. The conjunct "however" is used to denote contrast to what is said

before.

b. ‘It’ is a formal subject of the main sentence, and the actual subject is the

infinitive phrase to attach a thank-you note or card to the gift.

c. at least 至少

at first起初

at last最后

at hand手头

at once马上

⑻ attach: fasten or join one thing to another

be attached to = to be fond of

⑼ gratitude: the state or feeling of being grateful

~ to / for

⑽ very: use for giving force to an expression

⑾ In contrast, you are likely to get more cards than gifts in the United States.

(Para. 3)

Analysis: a. "In contrast" is used to make a statement different from the

previous one; 正相反

b. Likely means “可能” in Chinese;

c. More cards than gifts makes comparison between the two objects of get.

⑿ In general, American people don’t care very much whether the gift is

expensive or not. (Para. 3)

Analysis: a. "care" here is the same as "care about", meaning "feel interested,

sorry or anxious".

b. Whether introduces an object clause. It can be replaced with “if ”, but the

or not will not be used in that case.

. whether与if当"是否"讲时的区别是:在引导宾语从句时两者可以互换,但在引导主语

从句、表语从句和同位语从句以及介词后面的宾语从句或后面紧跟or not时通常只能用

whether,而不能用if.

c. in general = general speaking

⒀ As a matter of fact, your gift to them would be appreciated all the more if

you make it yourself instead of buying it from a store. (Para. 3)

Analysis: a. "All the more" is used to stress the comparative degree.

b. This sentence could be paraphrased like this: In fact, people will like your

gift much better if it is made by yourself rather than bought from a store.

c. as a matter of fact = in fact

⒁ instead of 意为“代替……，……而不……”，后接名词、代词、动名词或介词短语。

instead是副词，一般用于句末，后面不再跟其它词，用于否定前面提到的东西；instead

of... 是短语介词，用于否定of后面的宾语。

⒂ on hand: available

⒃ in person

⒄ pigeon hole = mail box
