Going to a friend’s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. It is important to be a good visitor.
When to arrive
The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come "around 3:00", that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.
What to bring
Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend's house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.
How to greet (问候)
When you visit your friend's house, you may also meet his parents. ①You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. or Mrs. Smith.

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed, and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write but they still have to remember things. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory has been exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering things in a way as other people do.

A. you can't use them any more

C. they become weak but they slowly become strong again
D. they become weak and won't become strong until you use them again
3. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Your memory works in different way as your arms or legs.
B. Your memory becomes weak if you do not give it enough chance for practice.
C. Don't learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.
D. A good memory comes from one’s parents.
4. Few people know that it is ________ if a friend has a poor memory.
A. his own fault

One day I happened to meet an Englishman in the street and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be very surprised, gently shaking his head and saying "You don't say!" I was puzzled, and I thought, "Perhaps this is not a right thing to talk about." So I said to him, "Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? Have you ever been there?"
"Certainly! Everyone at home will laugh at me if I leave here without seeing it. The Great Wall is wonderful!" "Yes, it is one of the mysteries in the world. And people of many countries have come to visit it." As I went on telling him more about it, he stopped me again, "You don't say! "
I couldn't help asking, "Why do you ask me not to talk about it?"
"Well, I didn't ask you to do so," he answered, greatly surprised.
"Didn’t you say 'You don't say!'?" I asked again.
Hearing this, the foreigner laughed loudly. He began to explain, "'You don't say!' means 'Really'. Perhaps you know little about English idioms（习语）. "
Wow! How foolish I was! Since then I have been careful with English idioms.
