Dear Dennis,
We just want to say thank you for having us before we caught the plane last week. It was a nice evening, and we enjoyed _1._ Peter and Sarah. With your help we were able to get to the airport with plenty of time. We often tried to get an earlier flight (航班) than usual, but it wasn't possible.
We had a _2._ holiday in Spain (西班牙). We just loved driving through the countryside, and we often _3._ to walk round a mountain village. We met _4.__ friends, Bill and Sue, and they invited us to have a meal with them. They wanted us to stay with them. But we couldn't, as we had already booked (预定) two rooms in a hotel.
The weather was nice. There _5._ so much beautiful sunshine all time we were there. Leaving Spain was very sad. It made me want to cry.
Anyway, we are looking forward to hearing from you, and hope to see you soon. Let me know if you're ever in the area. You must call in.
Yours,
Ray

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 are 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.

Many years ago, there was an old man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge(判断) things too quickly. So he told them to go and look at a pear tree. It was far away from his home. The first son went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in autumn.
When the sons came back, the old man asked them to say what they had seen.
The first son complained the tree was ugly. The second son said the tree was covered with buds and full of hope. The third son said the tree was full of green leaves. They looked so beautiful, and it was the most wonderful thing he had ever seen. The youngest son said that the tree was bowed down with heavy fruits. It was full of life and fulfillment(收获).
The man explained that all of his sons were right, but each of them had seen just one season of the tree. He told them that they couldn't judge a tree or a person by only one season. “If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the hope of your spring, the beauty of your summer, and the fulfillment of your autumn.” said the old man
