Background InformationManners are the standards of conduct which show the actor to be cultured, polite, and refined. They are like laws in that they codify a set of standards for human behavior; yet they are unlike laws in that there is no formal system for punishing misbehavior. They are a kind of norm.Step II. W arm-up Questions:①What changes in manners have taken place according to the article?A perfectly able woman no longer has to act helplessly in public, and a man can drop the outdated courtesies.②Why don’t men have to show outdated courtesies to women now?It is thanks to the women’s liberation.③Is “my wife”happy with “my custom”? Why?Maybe no, because she said “you did it again”when the hostess had gone. It seems that it takes time for women to get used to “my custom”.Step III Part Division of the TextPart 1 (Paragraph 1): As a result of women’s liberation, men no longer have to pay women the old-fashioned courtesies.Part 2 (Paragraph 2-3):The changes in manners between men and women according to an article. Part3 (Paragraph 4-11): “My custom” -- I refuse to trouble women with outdated courtesies andshow my thoughtfulness for them in my own way.Step IV Vocabulary1.custom表示“习惯，风俗”；而customs意思是“海关”，如customs duties“关税，进口税”, customs（海关）与单数动词连用e.g. The article is about how the customs works.Customs is an important organization in developing economies.Derivatives：customary adj.通常的，习惯的，惯例的customer n.顾客，主顾customize v.定做，按客户具体要求制造2.courtesy有两种词性，注意其各自用法不同：courtesy adj.礼节性的；免费的pay a courtesy visit to the new neighbors 对新邻居进行一次礼节性拜访courtesy tickets for the reporters 记者的免费票courtesies n.

When you receive an invitation you should answer is immediately, saying definitely whether you are able to accept it or not.If the invitation is given by word of mouth, in conversation or at a chance meeting, you should answer at once whether you can come or not. If you cannot give an answer at that time, you may say “ May I let you know this evening ” or some such words. By studying this unit, we will know about how to invite the others, how to accept or decline the invitation, and how to write invitation cards/letters.Section I Talking Face to Face1.

Writing Sentences and Reviewing GrammarSection IV Maintaining a Sharp EyePassage 1 :Information Related to the Reading PassageWhether it is to a wedding, a dinner party, shower or gala event, an invitation comes with some important obligations. Here's a quick guide to keep you on the guest list.1. R.S.V.PFrom the French “ R |oondez, s il vous plait ” , it means “ Please reply” Thislittle code has been around for a long time and it ' s definitely telling you that your hosts want to know if you are attending. Reply promptly, within a day or two of receiving an invitation.2. How do I respond? Reply in the manner indicated on the invitation.R.S.V.P and no responsecard: a handwritten responseto the host at the return address on the envelope.Response Card: fill in and reply by the date indicated and return in the enclosed envelope.R.S.V.P with phone number: telephone and make sure to speak in person —answering machines can be unreliable.R.S.V.P with e-mail: you may accept or decline electronically.Regrets only: reply only if you cannot attend. If your host doesn' t hear from you, he is expecting you!No reply requested?Unusual, but it is always polite to let someone know your intentions. A phone call would be sufficient.3. Is that your final answer?Changing a“yes” to a“no” is only acceptable on account of: illness or injury, a death in the family or an unavoidable professional or business conflict. Call your hosts immediately.Canceling because you have a “better” offer is a surefire way to get dropped from ALL the guest lists.Being a “ no show” is unacceptable.Changing a “ no” to a “yes” is OK only if it will not upset the hosts' arrangements.4. “May I bring , ?”Don' t even ask! An invitation is extended to the people the hosts want to invite —and no one else., a date. Some invitations indicate that you may invite a guest or date (Mr. John Evans and Guest) and when you reply, you should indicate whether you are bringing someone, and convey their name., my children. If they were invited, the invitation would have said so., my houseguest. I't s best to decline the invitation, stating the reason. This gives your host the option to extend the invitation to your guests, or not.5. Say “ Thank You.”Make sure to thank your hosts before you leave, and then again by phone or note the next day.Text Business InvitationA case of mistaken identity!Don' t worry, we' ve been assured that this mystery will besolved in time for ourHoliday Office PartyWe' re leaving the investigation to those who do it best.Let' s get away from all those computers, papers and mess and cometo our office party in your best suit or dress.Come join us and Toast the SeasonThursday, December 9th 2010 5:00 P.M.The Columbia House - Pen thouse Floor 485 Jeffers on PlazaLeonard, Barley, Travis, Bailey and SmithRegrets only to Dianne 248-8522It would be a crime to miss our party or not be on time485 Jefferson PlazaBusiness invitations can be informal or formal. Although invitations are usually sent through the mail, informal invitations such as e-mail and phone invitations are becoming more acceptable.Invitation TimingFor most formal occasions, it's best to invite guests three or four weeks in advance. If you choose to invite your guests by phone, remind them again in writing two weeks before the gathering. Here are a few guidelines for your information: • Six to eight months before an important seminar to which out-of-town executives are invited.• Four weeks before an evening reception.• Two to four weeks before a cocktail party.Invitation FormatFormal business invitations are most commonly printed on white or off-white high-quality paper. Acompany can use any color of paper it desires, as long as it upholds and promotes the compan'y s image.With preprinted invitations, you simply fill in the blanks to tell what, where, and when the party will be and who is giving it. It 's also acceptable to include an RSVP notation and your phone number or address on the invitation for more accurate planning.Responding to an InvitationEither use the address or phone number printed in the lower left corner of the invitation or return the RSVP card sent with the invitation. If a “Please reply by” a given date is included in the invitation, be polite enough to reply by that date. If the words “Regrets only” are printed in the lower left corner of the invitation, you need only to inform the host if you will not be able to attend. If your host does not hear from you, you are expected to attend.Never ask to bring a guest unless the invitation states“Mr. Louis Winthorp and Guest.” Most likely, the host will have only enough food and drinks for the number of people he invites. Showing up with an uninvited friend could turn out to be an embarrassing situation for everyone.Language Points1 Explanation of Difficult Sentences1. (Para. 1) Although invitations are usually sent through the mail, informal invitations such as e-mails and phone invitations are becoming more acceptable. Analysis: such as means“of the same kind, like” and should be followed by nouns or noun phrases.Translation: 虽然邀请函通常通过信函方式发出，但目前像电子邮件、电话邀请等非正式邀请越来越被普遍使用。

I’m sorry I can’t, but thank you all the same.真抱歉，我不能去。
可还是要谢谢你。
Could you make it another time, perhaps next Sunday?你能改个时间吗，下个星期天怎样？Sentence WritingWord Order in a Subordinate Clause 从句的顺序在写英语复合句时，除了需要注意照应主句与从句的时态、人称、连接词语等等之外，还应特别致意从句部分的语序。
英语从句经常用疑问词引导，如what, who等，但与疑问词引导的简单问句不同。
从句不使用疑问句语序，而使用陈述句语序，即按主语在前、谓语在后的顺序排列。
还应注意，因为从句不使用疑问倒装结构，所以一般现在时和一般过去时不再用do, does, did等助动词帮助构成从句结构。
1．常用来引导从句的疑问词有what, when ,where, who, whether, how等，这些疑问词一般仍保留原有的疑问含义。
She wanted to know when my brother had visited Paris.她想知道我哥哥什么时候游览过巴黎。
Could you please tell me where we are going.你能告诉我我们到哪里去吗？How he plays the trick is a secret.他怎么变这个戏法是个秘密。
2. Whether可以引导主语从句，if 不能引导主语从句，但是两者都能引导宾语从句。
引导宾语从句时，两者都表示“是否”的意思，只是if 后面不能加or not。
1）主语从句Whether he will accept the job is difficult to say.（对）If he will accept the job is difficult to say.（错）他是否接受这项工作还很难说。
2）宾语从句They wondered whether/if we would like to join them.他们想知道我们是否愿意加入他们。
Could you please tell me whether or not we are going there, too?请告诉我是否我们也要去那里？3．疑问句一般可以用来引导主语从句、宾语从句及表语从句。
写作中要特别注意这些从句的语序。
1）主语从句的语序Whether he comes or not matters little to me.他来不来与我没什么相干。
How you can get such an experience is a key point.你怎样才能得到这种体验是个关键。
2）宾语从句的语序I don’t understand why he didn’t accept our invitation.我不明白他为什么不接受我们的邀请。
3）表语从句的语序The fact turns out to be what he never expected.事实是他始料不及的。
4. when, where 等若用来引导状语从句或定语从句，它们不再是疑问词，也不具有疑问含义，因此他们的语序亦应为陈述句语序。
1）状语从句的语序When she visited the famous museum in Paris, she met my brother.她在巴黎参观哪个著名的博物馆时遇见了我哥哥。
Could you stay for a while where you are now?你们能在现在的地方留一会儿吗？2) 定语从句的语序She still remembers the day when she met my brother in Paris.她还记得在巴黎遇见我哥哥的那一天。
Could you please tell me the place where you met for the first time?你能告诉我你们初次相会的地方吗？Section IV Maintaining a Sharp EyePassage I Business InvitationExplanation of Difficult Sentences1.
