They often invite friends for a meal, a party or just for coffee and conversation. Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes: “Would you like to come over for dinner this Saturday night?” “Hey, were having a party on Friday. Can you come?” To answer an invitation, either say thank you and accept or say you are sorry and give an excuse. “Thanks, Id love to. What time would you like me to come?” or “Oh, sorry. Ive tickets for a movie.” Sometimes, however, people in the west use expressions (语句) that sound like invitation but which are not real invitation. For example, “Please come over for a drink sometime.” “Why not get together for a party sometime?” or “Why dont you come over and see us sometime soon?” They are really polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they dont mention(提到、涉及) a certain time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To answer expressions like this, people just say, “Sure, that would be great!” or “OK! Thanks.” So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly? 42. Which of the following is NOT a real invitation? A. Please go to t he concert with me some day. B. Would you like to have a cup of tea with us this evening? C. Ive two tickets here. Can you g o to the cinema with me? D. If you are free now, lets go to Wangs for a drink. 43. If people say, “Why not get together for a party sometime?”, you just say “_” A. Im glad to hear that. B. How about this evening? C. Oh, sorry. Im very busy. D. Thats great. Thanks. 44. People use “an unreal invitation” in order to show _. A. theyre trying to be friendly B. theyre trying to make friends with others C. they have already got ready for a party D. their spirit of generosity 45. The passage is mainly about _. A. entertainment at home B. real invitations or not C. expressions of starting a conversation D. ways of ending a conversation 四、词汇运用 （本大题共 10 小题，每小题 1 分，计 10 分） 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。（每空一词） 46.
