Do you like chocolate? Maybe most people do. A box of it can be a great gift. Buy one for a friend and give it as a surprise. See how happy that person gets.

You are a person who likes to party. Did you choose an oval (椭圆形的) shape? You are a person who likes to make things. Picking a square shape shows something else. The person is honest and truthful. You can depend on him or her.
What kind of chocolate do you pick? Maybe you like milk chocolate. This shows you have warm feelings about the past. Dark chocolate means something else. A person who chooses it looks toward the future. What about white chocolate? Would you choose it? If so, you may find it hard to make up your mind. Some people like chocolate with nuts (果仁). These are people who like to help others.

【推荐2】Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write about them in his diary. Now a teenager might surf the Internet and write about his problems in his blog. In some ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. What makes a blog different from a diary? The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public (公开的) than a diary. I have a younger sister, and sometimes I read her blog. She writes about things like getting up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her maths exam. When I was her age, I wrote the same things but only in my diary. After I finished writing, I would put my diary in a secret (秘密的) place because I was worried that someone else might read it.
A blog is public so it has some bad points. The biggest problem is that anyone can read what you write. If I am angry with a friend during school and write something bad about him in my diary, he will never know. However, if my sister writes something bad about a friend, that friend may read her blog and cry. So we must be very careful to write.
Blogs have good points, of course. If I feel lonely (孤独的) and write “Nobody cares about me” in my diary. No one will know about it. However, if my sister writes the same words in her blog, her friends will quickly reply and tell her how much they like her. A blog helps people keep in touch with their friends.
If people are careful, writing blogs is really a good way to communicate (交流) with others. However, I still enjoy my diary!
