The survey of 1,000 people by British insurance company insurastore.com showed that 37 percent of British adults admitted to searching for their presents, and out of those, eight in 10 were successful in the hunt.

英國(guó)保險(xiǎn)公司insurastore.com一項(xiàng)涵蓋了1000人的調(diào)查顯示，37%的英國(guó)成年人承認(rèn)搜尋過(guò)自己的圣誕禮物，其中有80%的人成功地找到了禮物。

"Kids aside, it seems even adults have a fascination for what Father Christmas might have bought them," insurastore Managing Director Paul Maddicott said.
