If you're invited to an American friend's home for dinner, keep in mind these general rules for polite behavior. First of all, arrive approximately(接近) on time(but not
early).Americans expect promptness(准时). It's OK to be 10 or 15 minutes late but not 45 minutes late. Dinner might be overcooked and ruined by them. When you're invited to someone's home for a meal, it's polite to bring a small gift. Flowers or candies are always appropriate. If you have an attractive item made in your native country, your host / hostess would certainly enjoy receiving that as a gift. If you are served some food you don’t like or can’t eat, don’t make a fuss about it. If your host doesn’t say anything about what yo u aren’t eating, then you shouldn’t, either. Simply eat what you can and hope that no one notices what you left. If you are questioned, you may have to admit that you don't eat meat (or whatever), but you can also say that you've enjoyed the other foods and have had “more than enough” to eat. Don't make the cook feel obliged (责怪) to prepare something
else for you. Be sure to compliment (赞美) the cook on the food that you enjoyed. Don't
leave immediately after dinner, but don't overstay your welcome (做客时间过久), either. When your friends seem to be getting tired and running out of conversation, take their behavior as a cue （暗示）to leave. The next day, call or write a thank-you note to say how much you enjoyed the evening.

him to his office. The driver shook his head. The foreigner repeated his request and the driver shook his head again. At last, the foreigner shouted angrily, “Drive me to my office at once!” The driver said in a low voice, “Yes, sir,” smiling and shaking his head again at the same

For 30 years, Randy J. Murphy drove without being stopped by the police—and without a driver’s license (驾驶执照).
The 46-year-old man’s luck came to an end last May. On his way home from his job as a dishwasher, he turned up the radio in the car.
“I just turned the corner, and there was Mark,” Murphy said of the police officer who has since made such a difference in his life.
Officer Mark Taylor had stopped the car as he heard the blaring (震耳的) music. When he asked for a driver’s license, Murphy said that he didn’t have one.
Murphy told Taylor he couldn’t read well enough to tell the written part of the licensing test. “He said people just don’t help anymore. I told him if he was willing, I’d help him,” said Taylor. He gave Murphy his phone number. That afternoon Murphy called the officer.
For the next three months, the men met several times a week to review the questions which might appear in the test. When Murphy took the test, Taylor went with him. Murphy passed on his sixth attempt (尝试). He then sailed through the road test. On September 5, he got his license.
Taylor’s act of kindness won him the Offi cer of the Month award(奖) from the Knoxville Police Department. “People should help each other if they can,” Taylor said. “Randy did all the work. I just guided him along.”
Although Murphy has overcome the difficulty that kept him from getting a driver’s l icense, he hasn’t stopped there. “We still meet once a week to read,” Taylor said. “We’ve also become friends.”
“I’m glad he pulled me over now,” said Murphy.
