五、任务型阅读。
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答下列问题。
When your American friend invites you to have dinner with his or her family in their home, you're excited about going. But you may be a little worried about it, too. The customs in your country are very different from theirs. If you follow a few rules of dinner parties, you will have a good time at the party.
It's a good idea to bring a small gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you might bring a bottle of wine if you know that the family like it.
You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don't get there early. If you are more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.
Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don't know about choosing the correct fork, knife, or spoon, just watch the other people and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don't be shy about asking the person next to you. It's better to ask than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.
If you like the food, say so. Of course, you'll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It is also a good idea to send a card or a thank-you note the day after.
1. How many rules does the writer give us?
2. Why do you probably feel a little worried when you are invited to a dinner party by your American friend?
3. When should you get to the dinner party?
4. What does the underlined word "It" refer to in the last paragraph?
5. What's the main idea of the passage?
