1、題目大意

在越來越多的國家，人們(men) 選擇在特殊場合送錢而不是送個(ge) 人選擇的禮物。為(wei) 什麽(me) ？這一個(ge) 積極的還是消極的發展？

2、思路解析

這是一道報告+利弊的混合類大作文，聊的是把現金作為(wei) 禮物的問題和影響。報告類大作文的結構比較簡單，兩(liang) 個(ge) 主體(ti) 段分別對應兩(liang) 個(ge) 問題，主體(ti) 段一回答這種現象的原因，主體(ti) 段二討論其利弊影響。下麵月半鴨和大家一起來看下具體(ti) 觀點。

首先來看產(chan) 生這種現象的原因。

一是在全球化背景下，不同地區文化交流變得更加頻繁，不同地區會(hui) 相互學習(xi) 和借鑒。在一些國家中，本身有過節時贈送紅包來表達祝福的習(xi) 俗，隨著文化交流，這個(ge) 習(xi) 俗可能被更多其他國家人們(men) 采納並使用。

二是隨著人們(men) 物質條件變得豐(feng) 富，贈送某樣東(dong) 西可能是對方已經有的或者並不需要的，這會(hui) 導致禮物被閑置或遺棄，造成資源上的浪費。

三是節約時間。挑選禮物的過程會(hui) 花費許多時間和精力，如果禮物不合適那會(hui) 顯得前麵的時間精力是一種浪費，不如直接送現金來的更為(wei) 簡單直接。

然後來看利弊。

好處是這種方法確實節約了送禮者的時間和精力，對於(yu) 收禮者來說，現金的用途也更加自由和廣泛，可以購買(mai) 自己需要的東(dong) 西或存起來。

壞處是把錢作為(wei) 禮物可能並沒有辦法有效促進雙方感情。實體(ti) 禮物本身體(ti) 現了送禮者對收禮者了解程度，收禮者能從(cong) 中感受到對方對自己的在乎並願意付出精力去挑選。但是現金紅包因為(wei) 過於(yu) 簡單可能會(hui) 讓人覺得是一種敷衍和草率，不利於(yu) 雙方感情發展。

3、提綱

4、高分範文示例

Money gifts are currently valued higher than thoughtfully chosen gifts. Giving a gift of cash may be a simple and secure way to select presents, but I find it unappealing because it fails to fulfil the ritual's intended purpose.

Several factors have increased people's willingness to give money as a gift. Firstly, money is recognised everywhere, making it less likely that unnecessary gifts will be sent and lowering waste. A gift that was poorly chosen, such as a figurine or an unfavorite perfume bottle, may be ignored or even discarded by the person receiving it. Money, on the other hand, would be a better gift because it allows recipients to pursue their own personal interests. Furthermore, giving money as a present is convenient. When it comes to buying presents for a variety of occasions spread out over the year, it is time-consuming to consider the requirements and preferences of each individual recipient. Rather than going through all of this trouble, simply sending a red envelope with a lovely "congratulations" card is preferable.

However, the disadvantages of giving money outweigh the apparent benefits. The gift's versatility and ease of use prevent it from fostering a deeper connection between the giver and recipient. Compared to thoughtful gifts in which the giver has taken the time to find the "perfect" present and has considered the recipient's personality and hobbies, giving a red packet requires very little effort. Therefore, giving money may be interpreted as a lack of interest in preparing a thoughtful gift or knowing what the recipient really wants. As a result, the gift-giver may be interpreted by the recipient as uninterested in their life and unwilling to develop a deeper relationship.

Money is a safe and convenient way to be given as a gift, but it is a negative trend because it lacks thoughtfulness and care. Rather than sending a random red packet, I believe people should take a few hours out of their busy schedules to think about and present the perfect gift.
