20、ting the designs on her computer and sending parts of the drawings to be printed.

26、sure to find our loved ones the “perfect” gift. Why? Because gift-giving has long been considered a prime way to express love. However, recent research suggests that small acts of kindness, like a kind word, hugging a child or receiving sympathy, make people feel most loved and supported.In the stud
27、y, 495 men and women between the ages of 18 and 93 completed a questionnaire evaluating 60 possible ways that people can feel love. The storyboards included situations like spending time with friends, receiving gifts, and spending time in nature. The survey also included negative interactions, like
28、being controlled and criticized (批评 ) by others.The findings highlight the psychological benefits that close relationships can offer. In fact, study participants ranked human interaction as a more significant expression of love than receiving material items, like presents. Connecting with others was
29、 also rated more highly than getting positive feedback on the Internet, indicating that people get the most support from personal human contact.“During the holidays，anxiety rises, making it harder to remain present with ourselves and others. However, the power of spending time with another person is
30、 a gift we can give at any moment,” says Dr. Carla Naumburg, a mindfulness coach and social worker in Newton, Mass. He suggests balancing party planning and online shopping with moments of human connection. Activities like reading to a child, meeting a friend for a walk, or taking a moment to call a
31、 family member, are ways to express love and care and can keep us emotionally grounded.While the idea of offering loved ones the gift of our time may pale in comparison to giving them a generous present, recent research shows shared human experiences can tighten social bonds.

35、presence that counts.D. Stress causes people to withdraw from others.DThink twice the next time you decide to copy your boss in an email. That simple little “CC” box (抄送框) could send a message that ruins your relationship with the other receivers.A study in Harvard Business Review asked working adul
36、ts to imagine that their coworker always, sometimes, or rarely CCed their boss in emails. The study results show that employees felt less trusted when their coworker “always copied the boss than when they sometimes” or “almost never” did. The results of the survey arent surprising, says career exper
37、t Bruce Tulgan. Sometimes the boss really does need to stay in the loop (在圈内) with an email chain. But most times, employees are purposely sending the message that they dont think the receiver follow through with what theyre asking unless the boss gets involved, says Tulgan. “That is an expression o
38、f lack of trust, he says.Breaking down that trust level in your office can have serious consequences. Like in any relationship, coworkers need trust to keep things running smoothly. “When people have trust, there is a much higher level of wanting to deliver for each other,” says Tulgan. “When people
39、 have enthusiasm, they try harder.” That means more willingness to take risks and make decisions, he says. Even if you dont trust your coworker to follow through for you, copying the boss in an email is not the best strategy, says career expert Todd Dewett, PhD. “CCing is the adult version of being
