An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal．If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him，you may say __1__ like this，“I’m afraid it'll have to be someplace __2__，as I have very little money．” The other person may say，“OK．I'll meet you at McDonald’s．” This means that the two agree to go Dutch，that is，each person pays for himself．He may __3__ say，“Oh，no．I want to __4__ you to lunch at Smith's，” or “I want you to try the Chinese dumplings there．They’re great．” This means the person wants to pay for both of you．If you feel __5__ towards this person，you can go with him and you _6__ pay for the meal．You may just say，“_7_．That would be very nice．”

       I have been a friend of Bill Gates for a long time．I know him when he was a student at Harvard University．We were surprised when he left University to set up his own company “Microsoft” and make his own software．But he was the clever one! He is very good at writing computer languages and almost all computers now use Microsoft software．The program “Word” is used from Britain to China！

       Of course he has made a lot of money and that makes people very jealous．They want to stop his success．Even the government is against him and has tried to break his company into two parts．The government says that it is unfair to other people who want to sell similar software. And what’s more, because he fits his new software free in every new computer, the government says he is stopping other companies from selling their programs．This is not fair．Everyone should be able to do what they can to make their company bigger and stronger．Bill Gates has only done what he can to stop other competitors．

       He is very rich, but he is generous．He has given millions of dollars to help the education and health of many children around the world．You could not meet a better man than Bill Gates．

Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we can’t be more familiar with the fact of friendship, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends, especially with Americans. Here are some pieces of advice on making friends with Americans:

* Visiting places Americans enjoy: parties, churches, restaurants, parks and sports clubs.

* Be willing to take the first step. Don’t wait for them to get close to you. Americans in China may not know you speak English. They may be uncomfortable if they can’t speak your language.

* Use small talks to open the conversation. Ask them where they’re from, why they come to China, etc. Remember: Be careful not to ask personal questions about age, salary and so on.

* Show an interest in their culture, their country or their job. Americans like to talk about themselves.

* Invite them to join you for dinner or just for coffee or tea. Try to set a specific （明确的）time. Americans sometimes make general invitations like “Let’s go out for a dinner sometime.” Often this is just a way to be friendly. It’s not always a real invitation.

* Don’t expect too much at first. Maybe they’re being friendly. But maybe they want to be your good friends. It will take time to tell.
