语法填空
In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining(请客) at home. They often invite friends over 1. a meal, a party, or just for coffee and conversation.
Here are the 2. (kind) of things people say when they invite someone to their home:
"Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?""Hey, we 3. (have) a party on Friday. Can you come?"
4. (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?" 5. "Oh, sorry. I've tickets for a movie."
Sometimes, 6. ,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 7. party sometime?" "Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon?"
They are really just polite ways of 8. (end) 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 9. (friend).To reply to expressions like these, people just say "Sure, that would be great!" or "OK. Yes, thanks."
So next time when you hear 10. sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?
