In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining (请客) at home. They often invite friends over for a meal, a party, or just for a coffee and conversation.

Here are some 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 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 had 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, 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 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. Although 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 is 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.

How do you feel when you go to a birthday party? What about making a speech in front of the class? Do you get really shy? If you think you are too shy and want to be a little braver, try the following. You can make it!

1 Tell people you're shy.

There is no need to hide (隐藏) it. When they get to know you're a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more at ease (自在) in talks.

2 Try to smile more.

When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that other people have feelings, too. And most

people will stay away from an angry-looking person.

3 Learn to be a good talker.

If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you.

4 Get your attention elsewhere.

Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game. Don't waste (浪费) time worrying about your looks or whether people like you or not.
