空洞礼物A blank present

A blank present is the present that has no thought behind it. This usually comes in the form of gift cards and money. The person who gives these as presents often does not know what the receiver likes, and simply gives them the "choice" to get "whatever they want".

空洞礼物"指没有任何创意的礼物，通常是以购物卡和现金的形式送出。送出这一类礼物的人多半是不清楚收礼物人的喜好，所以就干脆让他们"想买什么就买点什么"。

For example:

Best Buy, Target, and Kohls gift cards, and $100 ... man, all I got this year were blank presents.

百思买的购物卡、塔吉特的购物卡、科尔士的购物卡，还 有100美金，我今年得到的全是"空洞礼物”啊。

if I were you如果我是你的话

这种表达多用来给出自己的建议。

I think I'd take the money if I were you.

如果我是你，我想我会接受这笔钱。
