You don't always have to arrive on time and fresh-cut flowers are not the perfect house-warming present.Whether it's a backyard BBQ,a formal wedding or a dinner party for ten,here are all your must-follow modern etiquette rules.Trying to give someone a"unique"gift can sometimes backfire with the guests wondering what the heck you were thinking."Purchasing from a registry is your absolute best bet for giving a gift that is truly wanted and needed,"says Farley.If you're going to purchase from the registry remember that while it's fine to bring a bulky gift for a party at someone's home,don't do it for a wedding."Save yourself,and the couple,the hassle of lugging it around and choose to have it shipped to them directly instead,"says Tutera.Also,make sure you always follow these wedding etiquette rules.42.What about hostess gifts for housewarming and other casual parties?"A lovely bottle of wine,particularly one you know the party-giver enjoys,is often the best choice,"says Farley.But don't assume this will be consumed on the night of the event;it's up to the host if they choose to share it with other guests.A no-no?"Do not bring fresh-cut flowers;while lovely,arranging them will take the host's time away from other important tasks on the night of the party,"explains Farley.If you'd like to send flowers,do so after the occasion as a thank-you,delivered by a local florist.43.Ifit's a wedding:"Always arrive at least 15 t0 30 minutes earlier than the scheduled ceremony start time.You don't want to be walking in when the processional has begun or when the bride is about to make her big entrance,"says Tutera.44."Do not show up with a guest if you were not invited with one,"says Tutera.This goes for weddings,housewarmings,dinners and other parties.Remember to always RSVP before the deadline.It's rude to keep people waiting.45.When it comes to drinking,be it at a wedding,BBQ or casual dinner,make sure to do so in moderation."You don't want to be that guest,"advises Tutera.44选?A.Dress the part
B.Stick with the registry

American Wedding“I do.”To Americans,those two words carry great meaning.They can even change your life,especially if you say them at your own wedding.Making wedding vows is like signing a con-tract.

问答题Folklore and Festivals in Sweden Sweden is a land of contrasts; in the north, where forests fade into frozen ground, the influence of tradition and folklore is strong. In the milder, more fertile south, the customs are basically those of continental Europe. In Sweden, legends exist in people’s everyday life. Hunting legends, for example, tell how men have been turned into beasts by magic. It is thought unlucky to see a hare in the morning but to meet a wolf or a bear is an omen that hunting will be good. And there are some ancient customs about birth. When a child is born, the women of the family must carry it three times around its parents’ hearth and then examine it for birth marks. If a child is covered in the membrane, that means it will always be accompanied by a guardian spirit. It is feared that children who lack the protection of a guardian spirit may be stolen by witches and turned into disembodied spirits. A country wedding in Sweden is also very interesting. It is celebrated with traditional festivities~ The bridegroom must formally ask for the bride’s hand in the barn, because this is where the dowry is stored. On the wedding day the women of the family help the bride to dress in national costume, which includes silver jewelry and a bridal crown. Meanwhile friends and male relations wait in the kitchen, drinking beer. When the bride is ready, all the relatives and guests form a procession, which is led by young men on horseback. They meet the groom’s procession at the church and greetings, symbolizing the kinship which now unites the two families, are exchanged. When the wedding service ends, the guests go to the bride’s house for the marriage feast. The Swedes have many traditional festivals. The first of the great Swedish festivals is celebrated from April 30 to May 2. The night of April 30 is named Walpurgis Night and during it the forces of Life and Spring are said to triumph over Death and Winter While the festival lasts, bonfires are lit each evening—-first on the hilltops and then, in answer, in the valleys. These fires are a signal for the festivals to begin. They continue until dawn. In southern Sweden, poetry and singing competitions take place around the bonfires, and the winners receive prizes and kisses from the prettiest girls. Besides the Walpurgis Night, there are other festivals: for example, the Feast of the Sun is the great summer festival in June. The Blessing of the Lobsters is a festival in August in which people enjoy lobsters. While the Festival of the Goose is in the bleak November. On that day it is customary to serve a soup with goose blood. Even Christmas in Sweden is rich in tradition and folklore. It has absorbed the customs of the ancient festival of the winter solstice and new year. The Swedes do not have Santa Clause. What they have is Christmas Gnome. Children welcome his arrival by putting out generous helpings of Christmas cake for him to eat. And in the country districts, people throw gifts through the open windows of houses, together with straw figures of men and animals, for good luck.
