　　When you discuss about eating out with your friend, first of all, you must make it clear who will pay for the meal. If somebody suggests 1 lunch with his friend, he might simply say something like this, “I'm 2 it'll have to be some place 3 , as I have little money.” The 4 person may say, “ 5 . I'll meet you at McDonald's.”This means he has agreed 6 the two will go Dutch, that is, each person pays 7 himself. He may say, “Oh, 8 . I want to take you 9 lunch at Johnson's.” This means the person is to pay the bill for both of them. 10 the other person is pleased with the invitation, there is 11 reason why he shouldn't 12 it by simply 13 “Thank you.”

　　American customs are much the same 14 those in 15 parts of the world. American women 16 expect men to pay for all the meals. But today, some of them 17 . However, if a woman is asked to attend a dinner or a dance outside, the invitation 18 means “Come 19 my guest.” So, 20 you see, it is a polite thing to make the situation clear at the very beginning.

Fear plays no part in this latest problem. “ I’m not afraid I’ll lose my children. I won’t lose my children. We live together, and nothing, nothing, ” she repeats, her voice rising when speaking to John’s lawyer, “ will stop me from being with my children. A law? Yeah, right. Don’t disturb me when it comes to my children. You are never going to win. If John wants to see them, I cannot stop him. He’s their father ---- I want them to see him! However, his visit in his present condition will disturb the children’s stable(稳定的) life.”

John, who has spent much of his time in California recently, has only hired a house for himself in Pennsylvania, according to his lawyer. “ If he’d like to stick to a regular life, I’d be more than happy to do that, ” Jane says. “ The best thing for any child of a divorced (离婚的) parent is a stable life. I want nothing more than for him to set up a stable life for himself, so that he can be part of making our children’s lives more stable.”

While matters of money and care won’t be settled for weeks, Jane hardly puts her life on hold. Last week the ABC network announced that Jane would return with her own show, Twist of Jane, in which she gives advice to other moms. Jane and her eight children will also return to ABC in a series of Jane Plus 8 specials showing them on various adventures. It’s a rest for Jane, who insists that she needs her new, busy life to provide for her family. “ I have to lead such a life, and I’m thankful that I’ve built it to the top where now I can support my children, ” she says.

And whether a bellicose (好斗的) dance judge or a bellicose former wife, Jane plans to keep on facing attacks on her. “ Some people try to knock me down --- only to make me more fierce, more protective, more determined to do better, ” she says. “ Go ahead, take me on. This will just make me stronger. ”
