關(guān)于戒指的托福作文范文

Did you notice that cash-strapped couples are buying fewer engagement rings? Instead, they wear their affections on their sleeves in the form of brand-name watches and other love tokens. Only 60% of the newly betrothed forked out for diamond engagement rings last year, compared with 85% the year before last, according to a private research agency. Fewer people are receiving engagement rings, and when they do, the amount being spent is getting smaller. Instead of buying an expensive engagement ring that just ends up in a drawer, couples are buying things they can wear all the time like brand-name watches. Or maybe they are spending the money on a honeymoon or putting it toward buying a home.
