英國(guó)人購(gòu)買(mǎi)圣誕禮物的花費(fèi)居歐洲第一現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)美文
最新公布的一份研究報(bào)告顯示，英國(guó)人在購(gòu)買(mǎi)圣誕禮物時(shí)要比歐洲其它地方的人顯得出手更為大方，他們平均每人計(jì)劃在這方面花600英鎊。
據(jù)英國(guó)《每日郵報(bào)》12月10日?qǐng)?bào)道，發(fā)起這項(xiàng)研究的是法國(guó)AXA保險(xiǎn)公司，具體承辦者是TNS市場(chǎng)調(diào)查公司和GfK-NOP研究集團(tuán)。其中，TNS公司在11月時(shí)對(duì)英國(guó)本土的1022人進(jìn)行調(diào)查，而GfK-NOP研究集團(tuán)的調(diào)查對(duì)象則是分布在世界其它地方的9000人。調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示，與英國(guó)相比，歐洲其他國(guó)家的居民在購(gòu)買(mǎi)圣誕禮品時(shí)要小氣得多。調(diào)查排行榜上名列第2位的是西班牙人，他們平均每人的花費(fèi)僅為432英鎊;意大利人更是只愿為此掏出373英鎊;在圣誕期間表現(xiàn)最為摳門(mén)的是比利時(shí)人，他們宣稱(chēng)自己在圣誕禮物上的開(kāi)銷(xiāo)僅為272英鎊左右;而德國(guó)人比前者也強(qiáng)不了多少，該國(guó)公民在這方面的`人均支出為300英鎊。
盡管看上去英國(guó)人在圣誕節(jié)期間十分慷慨，但有22%的英國(guó)人聲稱(chēng)，他們會(huì)為自己在圣誕期間的花費(fèi)而感到有壓力且憂(yōu)心忡忡，另外，超過(guò)25%的人承認(rèn)自己需要通過(guò)向銀行貸款或是透支信用卡的方式籌集到足夠多的錢(qián)用于購(gòu)買(mǎi)禮物。

Britons are the most generous people in Europe when it comes to buying Christmas presents, planning to spend an average of ?600 on gifts each, new research has shown.
This dwarfs our European neighbours, with the Spanish, who expected to spend the second highest amount, splashing out an average of just ?432, while the Italians will get through ?373.
People from Belgium are the least generous when it comes to Christmas, claiming they will only spend around ?272 on gifts.
The Germans are not much better at an average of ?300, according to insurance giant AXA. But the Americans spend the most over the festive season, lavishing an average of ?764 on their friends and family.
People in the United States are also most likely to buy presents with 91% of the population saying they plan to do so, followed by 90% of the French, 89% of Australians and 88% of Britons.
But despite their generosity 22% of Britons say they feel stressed and worried about the cost of Christmas, while 25% say they will have to borrow money through a loan or credit card to buy presents.
TNS questioned 1,022 people in the UK during November and GfK-NOP Research Group questioned 9,000 people across the other countries.
