In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining (請客) 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 homes: "Would you like to come over for dinner this 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, Fd 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 certain 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? | ||||||||||||

Literature is a word used to describe written as well as spoken material. Generally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fiction.
Then why read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life?
A lot of us read literature for enjoyment and relaxation. It’s always pleasant to read some interesting books in our spare time. In a modern life full of stress, it is our common wish to read some imaginary works and look for relaxation from the stress in life.
Reading literature is more than fun; it also allows us to get knowledge. As a general rule, literature represents a language of a people, and it often gives us an insight(洞察力) into the traditions, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written.
Sometimes literature can even offer us new, creative ways to have a better understanding of the world. It introduces us to new worlds of experiences. We enjoy the comedy and the tragedy of poems, stories and plays; and we may even grow through our literary journey with books. At last we may discover meaning in literature by looking at what the writer says and how he or she says it. In some ways, we explore the human condition and analyze(分析) the way they think and feel the way they feel. Literature helps us think clearly and encourages us to open minds.
So we can certainly say literature is of great importance to us. Why not get going with one poem, drama or fiction at once?
