1. Do you like to go to parties?

　　Yes. I go to parties to drink and hang out with my friends and every once in a while get to know new friends. I like parties also because it's a great excuse to have tons of little foods. (hang out: 外出 闲逛)

　　2. Is there anything you dislike about parties?

　　I don't like parties because I really don't know what to do with myself. Someone always tells me to “loosen up” and “just be myself” and I always reply that I am naturally stodgy and wooden! I also don't like parties because I have difficulties picking out only one conversation from the din. (din: 吵闹 喧闹)

　　3. When you go to a party, what do you usually do?

　　I can meet my pals and have conversation with them at the party. Usually we put on some music, dance and eat. I seldom sit by myself at a party anyway. (pal: 朋友) New Oriental School

　　4. What do you do when you get together with your friends?

　　Whenever I hang out with my friends, we usually chat a lot and go mad. We keep on laughing on silly things and make fun of each other and ourselves. We would share about our school life and all our sweet memories.

　　5. What do you think are the benefits of parties?
