Q1. Either one works.
Q2. In 11 and 12, since the prepositional phrase occurs immediately after "gift" (a noun), it's being used as an adjective.
One more question related to 'for' goes as follows. Thank you for your explanation.
11. The nice gift for my birthday was a dictionary.
12. A nice gift for my birthday was a dictionary.
(Q1: Do we have to use 'the' or 'a' before 'nice gift' in the sentences? Q2: In #11 and #12, 'for my birthday' is used as an adverbial clause. Is it right? 'for my birthday' modifies 'A nice gift' in each sentence. Am I right?)
