These years, a few big changes in city life in China have drawn the world's attention（注意力）. Among them, four stand out. They are known as "China's four great modern inventions（发明）" among the Internet users.

Cashless payment（无现金支付） In China, now you could just pay with your cellphone to buy things. All you need to do is to scan a store's quick response code（QR code, 二维码）. Even a pancake seller on the roadside has a QR code for WeChat Pay or Alipay.

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining（请客）at home. They often invite friends over for a meal, a party, or just for a coffee and conversation.

Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their home:

"Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?"

"Hey, we're having a party on Friday. Can you come?"

To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you're sorry, and give an excuse:

"Thanks, I'd love to. What time would you like me to come?" or "Oh, sorry, I've tickets for a movie."

Sometimes, however, people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example:

"Please come over for a drink sometime."

"Why not get together for a party sometime?"

"Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon?"

They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don't mention a specific（确定的）time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say "Sure, that would be great!" or "OK, yes, thanks."

So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully: Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

（1）Which of the following is a real invitation?

A."If you are free, let's go for a dinner sometime."

B."Please go to the cinema with me someday."

C."Would you like to have a cup of tea with us sometime?"

D."I've two tickets here. Can you go to the movie with me?"

（2）If people say "Let's get together for lunch some day.", you just say "______"

A.That would be nice. B.How about this weekend?
C.Oh, sorry. I'm very busy. D.That's great. I'll be there on time.

（3）People use "an unreal invitation" in order to（为了）show that ______.

A.they're trying to be friendly

B.they're trying to be helpful

C.they're trying to make friends with others

D.they haven't got ready for a party yet

（4）The passage is mainly about ______.

A.entertainment at home

B.real invitations or not

C.expressions of starting a conversation

D.ways of ending a conversation

Stephen Hawking thinks aliens are dangerous. Stephen Hawking was a scientist from Britain. He thinks there must be aliens in space. He says that people should not look for aliens because they are dangerous. In a British TV program, Hawking told people his ideas about aliens.

Are there living beings（生物）anywhere other than on the earth? What could they look like? You could have your own ideas. Do they have two heads? Speak in a strange language? The movie CJ7 has lots of ideas about aliens. It is about a dog from space. CJ7 was on in 2017. Its language is Chinese.

17-year-old girl Xie Teng from Jiangsu thinks there must be aliens in space and that they must have been to the earth many times. She thinks aliens stop at the earth because they must need a rest or they might be curious（好奇的）about our earth, just as humans want to know more about outer space. She thinks maybe we can make friends with aliens. "Although we are not able to talk with each other, we can communicate through body language or music." She also thinks friendly contact（接触）with aliens can promote（促进）culture exchange between planets.

New National Geographic Survey shows one-third of Americans believe in UFOs. Even 79 percent of the people are almost sure that some mysteries about aliens are probably covered by the White House. And over ten percent of them say that they have ever seen spaceship of aliens in person.
