Question

假如你是Xiao Dong，Xiao Liang给你来了一封信，请你根据信的内容写一封回信。信的开头已给出，请把信补充完整。
Dear Xiao Dong,
I like your programs very much. I’m writing to ask you something about American social customs. My American friends want me to join them in their dinner party. I’m very happy and have decided to go, but I’m a bit worried about it. The social customs in my country are different from there, so I’m afraid of making some mistakes.
Should I bring a present, such as sweets or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a bit late? At the dinner table, how can I use fork and knife? How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their  kindness.
Yours’
Xiao Liang

Answer 1

Dear Xiao Liang,
I’m very glad to receive your letter. Thanks for your praise. I hear that you have decided to take part in the dinner party of your American friends. I agree with you very much.
First, I want to introduce some American customs to you. Americans like to invite friends to their homes. During the dinner, they always cut up all their food, then lift the food to mouth with their forks.
Second, I give you some advice. You needn’t be afraid of making mistakes, because they are friendly. You should prepare some presents, such as sweets and flowers, and arrive there on time. When you have dinner you should use the fork to lift your food.
In the end, you should say “Thanks for your dinner” to your friends.
Yours,
Xiao Dong
