中国人和英语国家的人的告别礼节，比如挥手或握手都是通用的，但也有一些差别。英语国家的人向朋友、亲告别时，常常会互相拥抱或亲吻。

中国人送客时讲究“远送”，一般都要送到门外或楼下，尤其对远到而来的朋友或亲戚送出门外很远，客人的告别语有“请留步”“别送了"，主人常说“请你/您慢走”“不远送了”等客套语。英语国家的人送客一般到门口为止。

在英语国家，当多人同时访问一个家庭时，如果有客人先行离开，客人一般会悄悄向主人表示歉意和感谢并告别，多数情况不会打扰在场的其他人，挥手后悄悄离开。

假如你到英语国家的人家里做客，聊了一段时间后，你决定要走了。你觉得下面哪句/些话比较符合他们的告别语“我该走了”。

A.I'm afraid I must be going now.

B.Well, I’d better be on my way.

C.I'm leaving now.

D.It's time to go now.

E.You look tired. I must leave now.

F.Well, it's getting late. I'd better let you get some sleep.

假如你到英语国家的人家里参加生日聚会，聚会还没结束，你有事决定要走了。你要对主人怎么说？你觉得下面哪句些话比较符合英语国家的人的告别语“我该走了”?

A.I'm sorry to have taken up so much of your time.

B.I'm afraid I have to go now. But don't let me break up the party.

C.The party is going to end, I must go.

D.I think I'm leaving now.

E.It's time to leave now.

F.Please don't ask others to leave because of me.
