广东省揭阳市榕城区2023-2024学年八年级上学期期中考试英语试题
Recently, a woman shared on the Internet that she had a birthday dinner not long ago. Before booking a table at a restaurant, she sent out a message to her friends and asked them to make an RSVP. On her birthday, the woman and her guests were very happy. However, a man who didn't make the RSVP arrived. Unluckily, there was no seat or meal for him. The man got angry and said the woman was a bad friend. She felt sad.
Many people commented on the story. Most of them said the woman did nothing wrong. The friend should have made an RSVP. So, what is an RSVP? Why is it important?
RSVP is short for the French word"répondez s'il vous plait", which means" please re- ply". RSVPing to an event like a birthday party is important. It can help the host know how many people will come to the event and so he or she can make a successful plan for it. The host needs to buy food and drinks, or sometimes spend money booking a nice place. It must take the host a lot of time and hard work to plan the event. So, making an RSVP can be very helpful.
If you get an invitation asking for an RSVP, please tell your host if you can go to the e- vent or not as soon as possible. It takes your host some time to invite you. You should also spend some time replying.
