【题目】 When you hear Westerners say “Drop in anytime(随时来玩)．” or “Come and see me soon.”， you should realize that it doesn't mean you are welcome to come over to their houses at anytime. It's wise to telephone before visiting someone.
Never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I may not be able to come.” If you are not able to come after accepting the invitation, be sure to tell those who invite you in advance(提前) that you will not be there and give your direct excuse to them. Don't_forget_to_say_sorry_if_you_are_absent_from_the_invitation.
When you have accepted the invitation to a party or a dinner, it is polite to bring small gifts with you, such as drinks, flowers and chocolate. Sometimes Westerners may take you out to dinner in a restaurant and it does not mean that he is going to pay the bill at the end of the meal. He might want you to “go Dutch”， which means each person pays his own bill.
In our modern society, the crossculture communication between China and Western countries causes the differences in welcome manners. Every culture in the world is equal. We should avoid using our own culture, morality and value to judge foreign culture. We should treat foreign culture carefully. If you don't want to be trapped in embarrassment, it's helpful to learn from what is mentioned above.
