Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home. You should not be upset(不安的) if your English friends don't invite you home. It doesn't mean they don't like you.
Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 pm and end at about 11. Ask your hosts (主人) what
time you should arrive. It's polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift.
Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks (小吃). If you want to be extra polite, say how much
you like the room, or the pictures on the wall. But remember: it's not polite to ask how much things cost.
In many families, the husband sits at one of the table and the wife sits at the other end. They eat with
their guests.
You'll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you'll have meat or fish with
vegetables, and then dessert (甜点心), followed by coffee. It's polite to finish everything on your plate
and to take more if you want it.
Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short "thank you" letter. British
and American people like to say "thank you, thank, thank you" all the time!

| Some birthday customs are quite similar in many parts of the world---- birthday candles (蜡烛), birthday games，and birthday cakes. But some customs are more specific to certain countries. Here are some children talking about their customs. Linda---I am fourteen. I come from Aruba. In our country, Children take something special to school for their classmates and all teachers. Each teacher gives the birthday child a small gift like a pencil, an eraser or a postcard. The birthday child is also allowed to wear special clothes instead of the school uniform. Lucy---I am one year older than Linda. Denmark is my country. A flag is flown outside a window to show that someone who lives in that house is having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child's bed while they are sleeping so they will see them at once when they wake up. Tom---I am as old as Linda. I am from Brazil. The birthday child receives a pull on the earlobe (耳垂) for each year in my country. The birthday person also gives the first slice of cake to his/her most special friend or relative, usually mom or dad. | ||||||||||||||||
