Choosing a present for someone you don't know very well can be challenging, but there are some general guidelines that can be helpful.

• Main idea 1: First, consider the occasion for which you are buying the gift.
  • Supporting idea:  Is it for a birthday, holiday, or another special event? This can give you a clue about what kind of gift might be appropriate. >> IELTS TUTOR lưu ý Cách dùng tính từ "appropriate" tiếng anh
  • Example: If it's a housewarming party, it would be appropriate to bring a gift that is related to the new home. For example, you could consider buying a decorative item, such as a picture frame or a vase, or a useful item, such as a set of kitchen utensils or a coffee maker.
• Main idea 2: Second, think about the person's age, gender, and interests. 
  • Supporting idea: By considering these factors, you can narrow down your choices and choose a gift that is more likely to be well-received by the recipient.
  • Example: 
    • For example, if you are buying a gift for a child, you might consider toys or books that are appropriate for their age and interests. 
    • If you are buying a gift for an adult, you might consider their hobbies, favorite sports team, or other interests. >> IELTS TUTOR lưu ý Paraphrase"hobby"(Diễn đạt"sở thích"tiếng anh)
    • Let's say you are buying a gift for your friend's birthday, If your friend is a woman in her 30s who enjoys cooking, you might consider getting her a cookbook from her favorite chef, or a set of high-quality kitchen knives. On the other hand, if your friend is a man in his 20s who loves sports, you might consider getting him a jersey from his favorite team, or tickets to a game.
