16、s frequent experience of gift-giving cancause uncertainfeelings in gift-givers.Many enjoy the opportunity to buy presents because gift-giving offers a powerful means tobuild stronger bonds,while many worry that their purchases will disappoint rather than delight the intendedrecipients(接受者).Anthropol
17、ogists describe gift-giving as a positive social process,serving various political,religious,andpsychological functions.Economists,however,offer a less favorable view.According to Waldfogel,gift-givingrepresents an objective wasteof resources.People buy gifts that recipients would not choose to buy

23、tys viewpoint seemsconfusing because people slip in and out of these roles every day.Yet,despite the experience as both givers andreceivers,people often struggle to apply information gained from one role in another.In theoretical terms,peoplefail to use information about their own preferences and ex
24、periences to produce more efficient outcomes in theirexchange relations.In practical terms,people spend hundreds of dollars each year on gifts,but somehow neverlearn to estimate their gift expense according to personal insight.8.The author uses“the deadweight loss of Christmas”in Paragraph 2 to expr
