When youre the guest ， you should make yourself at home. The question of whether or not to bring a gift often gives guests a headache.In American culture ， its not a must - do thing to bring present.Of course ， some people do bring some small gifts like flowers ， candies or if the family has small children - toys.If you choose not to bring a gift ， dont worry.No one will even notice. American hospitality( 好客 )begins at home.Most Americans agree that good home cooking beats restaurant food any day.When invited for a meal ， you might ask. “ Can I bring anything ？” If its not a potluck ， where everyone brings a dish ， the host will possibly answer ，“No， just yourself. ”For most informal dinners ， you can just wear comfortable clothes.Remember to arrive on time ， or call to tell your hosts that you may be late. During the dinner conversation ， its polite to say the food is nice.After dinner ， you can help clear the table or wash the dishes.But since you are the guest ， your hosts may not let you.Instead ， they may invite everyone to move to the living room to drink some tea or coffee.If the hosts are not smokers ，you shouldnt smoke in their house.And ， above all ， dont go around looking at the house if you are not invited.After about an hour of chat ，its time to say good - bye.You dont want to wear out your welcome.
