In Canada and the United States,people enjoy entertaining（招待）
guests at home. They often invite friends over for a meal,a party,or just
for a coffee and conversation. Here are the kinds of things people say
when they invite someone to their homes.
“Would you like to come over for dinner on Saturday night ”
“Hey,we're having a party on Friday. Can you come ”
To reply to an invitation,either say “thank you” and accept,or say “I'm
sorry” and give an excuse like “Thanks,I'd love to. What time would you
like me to come ” or “Oh,sorry. I have tickets for a movie.”
Sometimes,however,people use expressions（表达） 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,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

In Canada and the United States,people enjoy entertaining （招待） guests at home. They often invite friends over for a meal,a party,or just for a coffee and conversation. Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes.
“Would you like to come over for dinner on Saturday night ” “Hey,we're having a party on Friday. Can you come ”
To reply to an invitation,either say “thank you” and accept,or say “I'm sorry” and give an excuse like “Thanks,I'd love to. What time would you like me to come ” or “Oh,sorry. I have tickets for a movie.”
Sometimes,however,people use expressions （表达） 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,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
26.Why do Canadians and Americans often invite friends for meals at home ( C )
A. Because they can save time.
B. Because they can spend less money.
C. Because they enjoy entertaining guests at home.
D. Because they have modern and beautiful houses.

A. “I have two tickets here. Can you go to the movies with me ”
B. “Please go to the cinema with me someday.”
C. “Would you like to have a cup of tea with us sometime ”
D. “If you are free,let's go for a dinner sometime.”
28.If people say “Let's get together for lunch someday.”,you just say “ ” .( B )
A. How about this weekend
B. That would be nice.
C. Oh,sorry. I'm very busy.
D. That's great. I'll be there on time.
29.People use “an unreal invitation” to show that .( D )
A. they haven't got ready for a party yet
B. they're trying to be helpful
C. they're trying to make friends with others
D. they're trying to be friendly
