Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home.You should not be upset if your English friends don't invite you home.It doesn't mean they don't like you!
Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p. m. and end at about 11 p.m. Ask your hosts what time you should arrive.It's polite to bring flowers,chocolates or a bottle of wine as gifts.
Usually dinners start with drinks and snacks.Do you want to be extra polite?Say how much you like the room,or the pictures on the wall.But remember－it's not polite to ask how much things cost.
In many families,the husband sits at one end of the table and the wife sits at the other end.They eat with their guests.
You'll probably start the meal with soup or something small,then you'll have meat or fish with vegetables,and the dessert.It's polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want.
Did you enjoy the evening?Call your hosts the next day,or write them a short “thank you” letter.British and American people like to say “thank you,thank you,thank you” all the time.

In 1990, when I nine years old, I wanted very much to find pen pal, I found Ashley's address in a magazine, and decided (write) to her.
I sent off my letter with a little hope. Very quickly, I received her letter. my surprise, Ashley was only one month (old) than me, I learned some new expressions from her. (real) liked this new friend.
Letter after letter, year after year, Ashley and I continued to write to one another. A letter would be received and I'd write back right, away. We would send each other birthday and Christmas (gift).
Eight years later, my parents decided it was time me to meet this friend. They drove me down to Mississippi for a few days. We (have) a fun time together. We did the things that teenage girls love to do.
Twenty-five years after the (one) letter, Ashley and I still have an amazing friendship.
Although we don't write letters now, we communicate through mobile phones and the Internet.
