2. Read the passage and choose the best answer to each question.

If you are invited to an American friend's home for dinner, remember these general rules for polite behavior. First of all,

arrive approximately on time but not early. Americans expect promptness. It will be all right to be 10 or 15 minutes late but not

45 minutes late. Dinner might be over-cooked and ruined by then. When you are invited to someone's home for a meal, it is

polite to bring a small gift. Flowers or candy are always appropriate. If you have an attractive thing made in your native

country. your host or hostess will certainly enjoy receiving that gift.

What will you do if you are served some food that you can not eat or you do not like? Do not make a fuss' about it. Simply

eat what you can and hope that no one notice it. Be sure to compliment the cook on the food that you are enjoying. Do not

leave immediately after dinner, but do not overstay your welcome, either. The next day, call or write a thank you note to say

how much you enjoyed the evening.
