Going to an American friend’s house is very exciting. But you must remember to be polite.

When to arrive  If your friend tells you to come “ around 3:00”, that means you can go there a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.

What to bring   It’s nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.

How to greet   When you visit your friend’s house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I call his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr or Mrs Smith. You can also call them Madam or Sir.

It is a cool thing to visit a friend’s house. Be polite to your friend and your friend’s parents, and you will be invited again!

In Britain, some people say they will do anything if a famous person they love asks them to. One in three people in Britain have a new kind of disease(病)—they love a famous person too much.

Some people love famous stars like Britney Spears, David Beckham or even Tony Blair. It is not just the young, grown-ups have the same problem. One in four people are so interested in their heroes that it affects their life.

There are two ways of worshipping(崇拜) famous people. One way is just to follow them or talk about them with friends for fun. The other is a more serious way. People have very strong feelings for them and think they are their friends. People who do so for fun are found to be happier. But those who have strong feelings for a famous person are perhaps to feel more lonely and worried.

“Worshipping famous people is not certainly a bad thing,” Dr.John, an expert said, “But like many things, overdoing it may not always be good for you.”
