英语口语：圣诞礼物是Christmas gift还是present？

我们用CHRISTMAS GIFT or CHRISTMAS PRESENT进行英语口语训练吧。不要做gift或present的“语法”同义词变体分析

今天，美国老年夫妇(80名男性，70名女性)在道路上走私60磅“大麻”(案件36万美元)时被警方发现，阅读了英文新闻。

80岁男疑犯对运送如此庞大大麻的“解释”竟然是：to give out the weed（指大麻生叶）as Christmas presents.

原文节选如下：

Vrbka said the couple told police they were traveling to Vermont from Clearlake Oaks, California, and intended to give out the weed as Christmas presents, according to WOWT.com.

现在我们可以用这段英语做“英语口语”训练了：

Well,got it. When we give someone something on Christmas, we can say We give you a Christmas present.

“圣诞礼物”是可以说Christmas present的。

而当我们又读到下面的英语时：

A Christmas gift（礼物）or a Christmas present（礼品？） is a gift given in celebration of Christmas. They are often exchanged（交换）on December 25th.

我们又可以做同样的“英语口语”训练了：

Okay.Got you.When we ssy a Christmas gift, we can also call it a Christmas present.

所以呢：

A Christmas gift is the same as a Christmas present.

能说英语口语就是“好猫”。
