Ⅴ.（2021百色）阅读理解（主题:人与社会·社交礼仪）
In Britain you may often hear “Drop in any time” or “Come to see me soon”, but you can’t really do that. People just say those things to make you feel welcome. It is better to telephone before visiting someone at home. If you receive a written invitation to an event that says “RSVP”, you should reply to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to go.
You should never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I will not be able to come.” If, after accepting, you are unable to go, be sure to tell those who are expecting you as soon as possible that you will not be there.
Though it is not necessarily expected that you give a gift to your host, it is considered polite to do so, especially if you have been invited for a meal. Flowers, chocolate, or a small gift are all appropriate（合适的）. A thank-you note or telephone call after the visit is also considered polite and is an appropriate way to express your appreciation for the invitation.

Ⅵ.（2022自贡改编）任务型阅读
The willow branch（柳树枝） is a part of the willow tree. In ancient China, willow branches were often used as a parting gift between friends and family members. Even today, willow branches are mentioned in many cases as a symbol of saying goodbye. Do you know why
One reason is that willow trees are strong. They can live easily in any place, wet or dry, north or south.
Because of this, giving a willow branch to say goodbye to loved ones is a way to tell them you hope they will get used to their new living environment.
For another reason, the pronunciation for the willow tree “liu（柳）” is similar to the character “liu（留）” in Chinese, which means inviting someone to stay—only the tones are different. So offering a willow branch means asking the other party to live for a longer time, even though we know that they must leave.
It’s said that this custom became popular during the Han Dynasty. At that time, Baqiao, a bridge in Chang’an, today’s Xi’an, was a common place to say goodbye. People often stopped there and handed willow branches to people who were leaving.
