If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this,“Im afraid itll have to be someplace cheap, as I have very little money." The other person may say,“OK, Ill meet you at McDonalds."This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say,“Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Smiths," or“I want you to try the Chinese dumplings there. Theyre great." This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you neednt pay for the meal. You may just say,“Thank you. That would be very nice."American customs（1） about who pays for dates（2） are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university（3） girl or a woman in business world will usually pay her way during the day. If a man asks her for a dance outside the working hours, it means “Come, as my guest（4）.” So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.Notes:（1）custom/kstm/n. 风俗 （2）date/deIt/n.约会 （3）university/、ju：nIv：sItI/n. 大学 （4）guest/gest/n. 客人1.The passage tells us.

So they also wish to be writers some day. They mean that they want to write stories or books which many persons will read. I would like to remind1 them that they will need to be good readers and to read a lot in order to2 be good writers. Nearly all great writers read too long before they started to school, and read for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. Instead of watching TV in the evening, they spend much of their spare3 time reading books. If you are a good reader, it wont take you long to do the reading homework your teacher asks you to do. Then you will have time to read other books for fun. Because you read so well, you keep looking for more books to read. While making up your mind4 to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself,“I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer."
