What kind of party is it
A potluck and surprise party.
Hi David,
What a great idea! I really like Ms. Steen a lot. She helped me to improve my English so much. I'm sad to see her go, and this party is the best way to say "Thank you and goodbye." I can help to buy some of the food and drinks. I can also help to bring Ms. Steen to the party. I already have a great idea about how to do that.

Dear classmates,
As I'm sure you know by now, our favorite teacher, Ms. Steen, is leaving soon to go back to the US.
We're very sad that she's leaving because she is a fun teacher. To show how much we're going to miss her, let's have a surprise party for her next Friday the 28th!
Can you come to the party If so, can you help with any of these things
Please tell me by this Friday.
1) Buy food and drinks.
2) Think of games to play.
3) Prepare things we need for the games (glue, paper, pens, ... ).
4) Bring Ms. Steen to the party without telling her so that she can be surprised.
I look forward to hearing from you all.
David
Hi David,
Thanks so much for planning this. I'd love to come to the party, but I'm not available. My family is taking a trip to Wuhan at the end of this month to visit my aunt and uncle. However, I'd still be glad to help out with any of the party preparations, like planning the games. Let me know if you need my help.

3. Let’s have a surprise party for her next Friday the 28th!
surprise party是西方国家常见的一种聚会形式,是一种旨在给人带来惊喜的聚会。聚会往往围绕一个或若干主题人物而举办,聚会的举办者事先会对主题人物保密,待其来到聚会现场之后才意外发现大家在为自己举行派对,因而会十分惊讶和感激。
还有一种surprise party并没有所谓的主题人物,而是旨在娱乐,参与者在聚会当中不断遭遇各种意外惊喜,欢乐不止。因此,surprise party可译作“惊喜聚会;意外派对”。
Language points
4. I look forward to hearing from you all.
我期盼着你们的答复。
look forward to 是一个固定搭配,表示“期待,期盼”,其中to 是介词,因此后面如果使用动词,要使用其-ing 形式。
I look forward to your reply. 我期待你的答复。
I’m really looking forward to seeing my little grandson again.
我好期待再次见到我的小孙子。
Language points
5. have a piano lesson 上钢琴课

have a (good) rest have a look 看一看

Language points
6. Hope you can make it! 希望你能参加(聚会)!
此句中的make it 是个独立地表达方式,表示通过努力或是历经困难后取得成功、完成某事,可译为“ 成功;胜利”, 但有时也要视语境及上下文灵活进行翻译,此处便是如此。
If we run, we should make it.
要是我们跑的话,应该不会迟到。
Though it was difficult, they still made it.
虽然很难,但他们依然成功了。
Language points
7. Please reply in writing to this invitation by Friday, December 20th.
请于12月20日以前以书信方式回复此邀请。
(1)replying in writing 表示“以书面的形式进行回复”。其中reply相当于 answer,但要比后者更加书面化且正式许多。此处介词 in 表示方式,相当于汉语“ 用……方式(形式)”之意。
(2) reply作动词时,不直接跟宾语,须由介词to 引入宾语内容,构成 reply to … 的结构。
Did you reply to these letter 你回复这些来信了吗?
(3)在此句中,介词by 译为“ 截止……; ……之前到……为止”。介词before 也有“……之前”之意,但区别于before不包含其后的时间,而 by 则包括。
