Talking Face to FaceI. Introduction In our daily life, we need to invite the others to dinner or take part in all kinds of parties, so we should know about the western custom about invitation. Foreign custom is much stricter than Chinese custom in the matter of replying to invitations. When you receive an invitation you should answer it 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. II. Teaching Procedures:1. Step 1.

Information Related to the ReadingPassage: The customs of inviting friends vary from country to country. Generally speaking, on formal occasions, the invitation is usually made well in advance. But as for some informal cases, the invitation is usually made orally. To either of these two invitations, the person being invited should give a clear reply whether the invitation is accepted or not. Step 2.Warming-up (1) Have you ever been invited to a party? (2) Do you know how to refuse an invitation? Step 3.Explanation of important words and phrases 1.commit: v. entrust, make oneself responsible 使承担（保证），使作出保证；把交托给 eg: (1) I think I can come tonight but I wont commit myself till I know for sure.

(2) I didnt think his comments were very appropriate at the time. 5. instance: n. certain situation, circumstance or occasion, case or example 情形，情况，事例 eg: (1) In the local industry, for instance, 5 000 jobs are being lost.

(2) I was surprised at his refusal to help me. Step 4.Explanation of Difficult Sentences 1).(Para1)You are not required to commit yourself until you know what the invitation if for. Analysis: Pay attention to the sentence pattern notuntil, which means not before a particular time or event. Translation: 在你尚未弄清出邀请的具体内容前，你没有必要答应一定参加。 Examples: Dont leave until I tell you. He didnt have a girlfriend until he was thirty. 2).( Para 1)For example, if you say that youre free and the invitation turns to be something youd hate to do , then you will be in a position to take back your acceptance or invent an excuse later. Analysis: (1)You had hate to do is a relative clause used to modify something. (2)Be in a position can take either an infinitive clause or an of-V-ing phrase, thus be in a position of having to take back. can be also rewritten as be in a position to take back Translation: 比如说，如果你说有空，而邀请参加的却是你不想做的事情（到你已经去过10次的景点旅游，那么你就可以回绝邀请，或者以后再编一个借口） Example: If you list a few priorities, then you will be in a position to do things in the right order of priority 3).(Para3) In many instances it is the inviter who pays. Analysis: This emphatic sentence takes the structure of “it is who/that.” Translation: 在许多情况下，应由邀请人付帐单。 Examples: It was he who broke the window. It is a meeting that they will have tomorrow. 4).(Para3).it may be more of a suggestion than an invitation. Analysis: Pay attention to the pattern: it is more of than 与其说 不如说 Translation: 这样说更像是建议而不是邀请。 Examples: She is more of a musician than a poet. He is more of a composer than a singer. Step 5 Conclusion: Explain the meaning of the text and the usage of new word and expressions to the students clearly. Let the students improve their ability of understanding through doing exercises. The students will know more about the culture of foreign countries through the content of the text: the way in which Americans greet each other. Step 6 Exercises
