When you hear Westerners(西方人)say “ Drop in anytime”(随时来玩)or “Come and see me soon” , you should realize that it doesn’t mean you are welcome to come over to their house anytime. It’s wise to telephone before visiting someone.

Never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I may not be able to come.” If you are unable to come after accepting the invitation, be sure to tell those who invite you in advance(提前)that you will not be there.

When you have accepted the invitation to a party or a dinner, it is polite to bring small gifts with you, such as bottles of drink, flowers and chocolate.

Dear Wang Fang

Thank you for your letter. You wrote to ask me about American social customs(风俗) in their dinner party. You are asking the right person. I once lived in America for five years. Now I’ll tell you something about it.

It’s a good idea to bring a small present when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you may bring a bottle of wine if you know that your friends drink it.You should arrive(到达) on time or five to minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you’re going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call before.

Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don’t know about choosing(选择) the right fork or knife, just watch the other people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, ask the person beside you .If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank them for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

Rose
