【解析】

试题分析：本文记叙了美国女孩Amy在好朋友Tony（华侨）家参加家宴的有趣故事。在Tony家里，Amy帮着整理餐桌、摆放餐具，学习使用筷子，吃中餐，被赠予签语饼干，从而体验了一次美味的晚餐。

【1】句意：他的家人每周聚在一起吃一顿传统的中餐。上周Tony邀请了他的朋友Amy来参加。Amy是美国女孩，能参加华侨家庭的聚餐，当然是“被邀请”的。结合首字母i的提示，故答案为：invited。

【2】句意：一家人正用热油烹调蔬菜，厨房里弥漫着许多好闻的气味。做菜当然是在厨房里，根据句意和首字母k的提示，可知答案为：kitchen。

【3】句意“哦，你不需要（刀子和叉子）这些东西。”托尼解释道，“我会告诉你怎样使用筷子的。别担心！”上文中Amy问刀叉在哪儿，而Tony要教她使用筷子，所以Tony告诉Amy用不着刀叉。根据首字母n的提示，故答案为：need。

【4】句意：艾米端的烤鸭。这是她能认识的少数几道菜之一。由于是中餐，对于不熟悉中国菜的Amy来说，她能够认出自己所端的是烤鸭，肯定是少数。根据首字母f的提示，故答案为：few。

【5】句意：正当她用筷子拿起一块鸡肉时，手指突然失去控制，鸡肉漫过餐桌飞了出去。Amy初次使用筷子，很不熟练。鸡肉飞脱筷子，显然是突发事件。根据首字母s的提示，答案应为：suddenly。

【6】句意：桌上的每个人都笑了。Amy的鸡肉脱筷而飞，出乎大家的意料，引得哄堂大笑。结合句意和首字母e的提示。故答案为：Everyone。

【7】句意：Tony的父亲慈祥地拿出一副刀叉，把它们交给Amy。Amy觉得舒服多了，她轻松地吃完了剩下的晚餐。换回了熟悉的刀叉，自然比用筷子舒服。结合句意和首字母提示可知，答案为：comfortable。
