VI- Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer:
If you invite an American friend to join you to have dinner in a restaurant, phone the restaurant first to find out
if you need a reservation to avoid a long wait for table. To make a reservation, just give your name, the number
of people in your group, and the time you plan to arrive. When you invite someone to have dinner, you should
be prepared to pay the bill and reach for it when it arrives. However, if your companion insists on playing his or
her share, do not get into argument about it. Some people prefer to pay their own way so that they do not feel
indebted, and those feelings should be respected. In most American restaurants, the waiter or waitress's tip is not
added to the bill. If the service was adequate, it is customary to leave a tip equal to about 15% of the bill. In
expensive restaurants, leave a bit more.
