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 cannot eat or you do not like? Do not make a fuss about it.
Simply eat what you can and hope that no one notices 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.

BÀI 2: Đọc kỹ đoạn văn và chọn đáp án đúng nhất.
If you are invited to someone’s house in America for dinner, you should bring a
gift, such as a bunch of flowers or a box of chocolates. If you give your host a wrapped
gift, he or she may open it in front of you. Opening a present in front of the gift-giver is
considered polite. It shows that the host is excited about receiving the gift and wants to
show his or her appreciation to you immediately. Even if the host doesn’t like it, he or
she will tell a “white lie” and say how much they like the gift to prevent the guest from
feeling bad.
If your host asks you to arrive at a particular time, you should not arrive exactly
on time or earlier than the expected time, because this is considered to be potentially
inconvenient and therefore rude, as the host may not be ready.

Lasers (the word "laser" comes from the phrase "light amplification by stimulated
emission of radiation") have found widespread application in medicine. For example,
they play an important role in the treatment of eye disease and the prevention of
blindness. The eye is ideally suited for laser surgery because most of the eye tissue is
transparent. Because of this transparency, the frequency and focus of the laser beam can
be adjusted according to the absorption of the tissue so that the beam "cuts" inside the
eye with minimal damage to the surrounding tissue. Lasers are also more effective than
other methods in treating some causes of blindness. However, the interaction between
laser light and eye tissue is not fully understood.

One afternoon a big wolf waited in a dark forest for a little girl to come along
carrying a basket of food to her grandmother. Finally a little girl did come along and she
was carrying a basket of food.” Are you carrying that basket to your grandmother?”
asked the wolf. The little girl said yes, she was. So the wolf asked her where her
grandmother lived and the girl told him and he disappeared into the wood.
When the little girl opened the door of her grandmother’s house she saw that there
was somebody in bed with a nightcap and nightgown on. She had approached no nearer
than twenty-five feet from the bed when she saw that it was not her grandmother but the
wolf, for even in a nightcap a wolf does not look any more like your grandmother than
the lion in a cartoon film looks like the President of the United States. So the little girl
took an automatic pistol out of her basket and shot the wolf dead.
