To reply to an invitation，either say thank you and accept，or say you're sorry，and give an excuse：

“Thanks，I'd love to．What time would you like me to come？”or “Oh，sorry，I've tickets for a movie．”

Sometimes，however，people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations．For example：

“Please come over for a drink sometime．” “Why not get together for a party sometime？”

“Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon？”

They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation．They are not real invitations because they don't mention a specific(确定的)time or date．They just show that the person is trying to be friendly． To reply to expressions like these，people just say “Sure，that would be great！”or “OK，yes，thanks．”

So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation，listen carefully：Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

( )1．Why do Canadians and Americans often invite friends for meals at home?

A．Because they can save time B．Because they can spend less money C．Because they enjoy entertaining at home．

( )3．If people say “Let's get together for lunch some day．”，you just say “______” A．That would be nice．B．How about this weekend? C．Oh，sorry．I'm very busy． ( )4．People use “an unreal invitation” in order to(为了)show that ______．

A．they're trying to be friendly B．they're trying to be helpful C．they're trying to make friends with others

( )5．The passage is mainly about______．

A．entertainment at home B．real invitations or not C．expressions of starting a conversation

Dear Sir,

I am writing to you about my stay at your hotel. My wife and I arrived on

Saturday, May 15th and stayed for a week. Though we were treated well and found the

service excellent, we think there are one or two things we should bring your attention.

1. We hoped for a nice holiday from our busy work lives, and your ad said

“comfortable and quiet”. We want to have a chance to enjoy ourselves. However, we

were always waken up by the noise every morning. Is it really necessary for the

workers to start their repair work so early?

2. We hoped to swim in your “wonderful pool”. To our disappointment(失望),

we found that it was closed for the whole time of our stay.

I hope you do not mind my writing to you about these things, but I would be

happy if you could give me some explanation(说明). As I said at the start, it is a pity,

and your service is so good in other places.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Yours sincerely

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn’t have

modern machines. Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is

pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and

pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry

more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It’s bad to all living

things in the world.

Polluted air from cars, planes and factories is so thick that it is like a quilt(被子)

over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog(烟雾). Many countries are making rules

to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away. And

they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air. We need to do many other things. We can

put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground. We can go to work by

bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be

less pollution.

Rules are not enough, every person must help to fight pollution.

The idea of Mother’s Day is a very old idea. It was started by the ancient（古老） Egyptians (埃及人),who celebrated(庆祝) a day to honour (向……表示敬意) Isis, the mother of the pharaohs. The early Christians(基督教徒) celebrated a day to honour Mary, the mother of Jesus.

Later, English Christians celebrated to honour all mothers. This English holiday was called “Mothering Sunday”.When the English came to America, they did not have time for Mothering Sunday, so the holiday was not celebrated in America. In 1914,the U.S passed a law（法律） which designated(规定) the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day to honour the mothers who had lost sons in war.

Today, Mother’s Day is celebrated in many other countries for all mothers. In Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the same day as in the United States—the second Sunday in May. Children give their mothers cards, gifts, and flowers. Schools plan Mother’s Day’s special activities.

In China, the holiday is celebrated to show the respect(尊重) the Chinese have for the old people, and the love they have for their parents. Ten top mothers are chosen by the government. People all over the country try different ways to help mothers who are poor.
