     Just like Chinese, westerners give gifts on many occasions (場合), such as, on birthdays of good friends,
at Christmas and some other holidays. Although gifts are always welcome, it is not necessary to exchange
(交換) gifts at any time. They exchange gifts only among good friends.

be small, simple and cheap. You might bring some sweets or some small toys for the children, or a book,
some flowers,a bottle of wine etc for the host (主人). If you want to make your gifts special, you can bring
some Chinese tea, Chinese paintings, Chinese papercuts (剪紙) or other things like that,or even you can cook
Chinese dish and bring it with you.
