我有个家庭聚会

We have a family get-together !!!
Thea	We've had a Chinese friend staying with us over Christmas and she  said that it was like Chinese New Year in some ways.
Perry	That's interesting. What did she mean by that ?
Thea	Well, she said just as we have a family get-together at Christmas they do the same in China at New Year.
Perry	Do they eat special food ?
Thea	Of course. On New Year's day, for example, they eat a special  vegetarian dish with several different ingredients. They'll also eat   a whole fish.
Perry	What's the point of all that ?
Thea	Well it's all to do with bringing wealth and prosperity to the family   in the coming year. The names of all the foods sound the same as  words connected with money and good fortune.

Stephen is my study partner and we often worked project together. Two weeks ago, he sent a invitation to me for enjoying a party get-together in his house. Approximately 20 peoples will participate in this party including a few of my classmates. I appreciated his kindness but I refused it.
