Last month, Junior 1 students from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School took a special test. They took it by traveling.

   The students went to Nanjing and Yangzhou for five days. Their teachers gave each student a list of questions to answer during the trip. The questions are also the students' mid-term test for history and geography. There were questions like: How long is the Beijing-Shanghai Railway? What were the six dynasties (朝代) that used Nanjing as their capital?

  "I never had so much fun with an exam," said Gao Chenxiang,13. "We learned a lot by working this way."

   The students learned much more than just the answers to the questions. They also visited the Nanjng Massacre Museum (南京大屠殺紀念館).

   "If 1 was learning only from a textbook, I wouldn′t have known how bad the Japanese invaders (侵略者) were," said Gao.

   Students did not get to sleep on the train to Nanjing. Usually the kids would sleep on a train journey so long, but in this case they were all given seats.

   "The seats are very uncomfortable," said DengLin,12. "I know most migrant workers (民工)travel this way. That must be so hard."

    Students also learned to take care of themselves. They washed clothes and made their own beds.

    "I learnt lots of useful life skills," said Wang Yiran,12. "1 never knew I could be so capable(能干的)."

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining at home. They often invite friends over 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 home:

    "Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?"

    "Hey, we're having a party on Friday. Can you come?"

    To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you're sorry and give an excuse:

"Thanks. I′d love to. What time would you like me to come?" or "Oh sorry,

I′ve tickets for a movie."

    Sometimes, however, people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example:

    "Please come over for a drink sometime."

    "Why not get together for a party sometime?"

    "Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon?"

    They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don't mention a specific time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say "Sure, that would be great!" or "OK. Yes, 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?

2. Which of the following is a real invitation?

    B. "Please go to the cinema with me someday."

    C. "Would you like to have a cup of tea with us sometime?"

    D. "I′ve two tickets here. Can you go to the concert with me?"

3. If people say "Let's get together for lunch some day." You just say, "     ″

    A. That would be nice.               B. How about this weekend?

    C. Oh, sorry. I′m very busy.          D. That′s great. I′ll be there on time.
