Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home. You should not be upset（不安的）if your English friends don’t invite you home. It doesn’t mean they don’t like you. Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m. and end at about 11. Ask your hosts（主人）what time you should arrive. It’s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift. Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks（小吃）. If you want to be extra polite, say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall. But remember－it’s not polite to ask how much things cost. In many families, the husband sits at one of the table and the wife sits at the other end. They eat with their guests. You’ll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you’ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then dessert（甜點(diǎn)心）, followed by coffee. It’s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it. Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you” letter. British and American people like to say “thank you, thank, thank you” all the time!

Look at the light and beautiful snowflakes（雪花） falling．Do you want to hold them in your hands? They are always lost when they meet your hands．

Well, this isn’t just a problem for you．It was a problem for Wilson Bentley, too．

In the 1870s, Wilson Bentley was just a teenager．His family lived in a small town in northeast America．Winters there were long and hard．Bentley’s mother was once a schoolteacher．She taught him at home．Bentley didn’t go to school until he was 14．He was a quiet boy, and loved reading his mother’s books．

But it was his mother’s microscope（顯微鏡） that interested him．When the other boys were playing with balls, little Bentley was studying the things like drops of water, flowers and snowflakes．Bentley loved watching snowflakes．For the next two years, young Bentley spent many winter days in a cold room watching these ice crystals（晶體） through the microscope．

The boy thought they were so beautiful that he started to draw pictures of them．But there were so many snowflakes that he couldn’t draw them all．

How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a camera．

The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one．But his father didn’t agree．He thought the whole thing was a bad idea．He thought the only thing a farmer should do was farming．

But finally Bentley did get a camera．For more than a year he tried to take pictures of snowflakes．On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of an ice crystal with his camera．“It was the greatest moment of my life,” Bentley said later．

For 13 years, Bentley worked quietly and took thousands of photos of ice crystals．Later he became known as “Snowflake” Bentley．
