We attended the wedding of an acquaintance's son. Because we did not know the young man or his bride, we decided¹ to send them a practical household gift, a fire extinguisher. Apparently², the couple mass-produced their thank-you notes because we received a card saying: Thank you very much for the nice wedding gift. We look forward to using it soon.

我们参加了一个熟人的儿子的婚礼。由于我们都不认识那个年轻人和他的新娘，所以我们决定送给他们一个实用的居家礼物----一个灭火器。很明显，这对新人大批量制作了他们的感谢信，因为我们收到了一张卡片，上面写着：非常感谢您的漂亮的结婚礼物，我们期待着不久就用到它。
