When I was five years old, I took a boat out on the river and went fishing by myself. I really wanted to catch a fish!But they were not biting.

I stayed in my boat for three days, waiting. A few times, I thought I felt a fish at the end of the line. The first time I pulled in my catch, it was not a fish; it was an old bag. The second time, it was a shoe. Finally, at the end of the third day, I felt a strong pull at the end of the line. The pull was so strong that my boat raced around and around. I needed all my power just to hold onto the fishing rod. I pulled, and I pulled and I caught the biggest fish that ever swam on the earth!It was heavier than everyone in this room put together!Then something terrible happened!

After I pulled the huge fish into my boat, I saw that the boat was going under water!Water was coming into the boat from all sides!I was not a very good swimmer, so I was scared.

In America, people often invite friends for a meal, a party (such as dancing party, housewarming party, birthday party, wedding party, New Year’s party, and so on) or just coffee. They often invite others face to face or by making phone calls, sometimes they send messages or emails.

When they make an invitation, they often say like this, “Would you like to come over for dinner this Saturday?” “We are having a party on Friday, can you come?” To answer an invitation, they say “Sure, I’d love to. Thank you.” to accept, or “Sorry,” and give a reason to turn it down. Anyway, they must reply an invitation in a polite(禮貌的) way.

Sometimes what people say is like an invitation but they are not real invitations. For example, “Please come over for a drink sometime.” “Let’s get together for lunch soon.” They are not real invitations because they don’t talk about the date or time. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. When people hear them, they usually answer “Sure, that would be great.” or “OK, thank you.” So next time you hear what is like an invitation, listen carefully.
