Peter wondered why he didn’t have many friends. The reason was that he was always taking, but never giving.
One day, Peter told Bill, “I’d like to have a party on Saturday. And I’d like you to come and bring Martha too. ” “Thanks, Peter. We’d be happy to come. ” “Perhaps you’d like to bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together. I’m sure everyone will want you to sing for us. ” That was how Peter began to plan his party.
Next, he asked another friend, Betty, to bring a cake. “You make the best cake in the world. And I like to eat your cake better than to have one from the shop. ” Peter invited a few other friends to come to his party. He asked something from each of them. He even asked Jim and Mary to let him have the party at their house! They agreed.
The party was a big success. However, as the guests were leaving, they said “Thank you” to Bill and Martha for the music, to Betty for the cake, to Jim and Mary for the use of the house and to others for their hard work. To Peter, they just said, “Thanks for the invitation. ”

阅读短文，回答下列问题。
彼得想知道为什么自己朋友不多。原因是他总是索取，却从不付出。
一天，彼得告诉比尔：“我想在周六举办一场派对。我希望你能来，也带上玛莎。”“谢谢，彼得。我们很乐意来。”“也许你愿意带上你的小提琴。你和玛莎一起唱歌很好听。我相信每个人都会希望你们为我们唱歌的。”彼得就是这样开始策划他的派对的。
接下来，他让另一个朋友贝蒂带一个蛋糕来。“你做的蛋糕是世界上最好的。而且我觉得吃你的蛋糕比吃商店里买的蛋糕更开心。”彼得邀请了其他几个朋友来参加他的派对。他向每个人都索要了一些东西。他甚至还让吉姆和玛丽把他们的房子借给他举办派对！他们同意了。
派对非常成功。然而，当客人们离开时，他们对比尔和玛莎的音乐表示感谢，对贝蒂的蛋糕表示感谢，对吉姆和玛丽提供房子表示感谢，也对其他人的辛勤付出表示感谢。而对彼得，他们只说：“谢谢你的邀请。”
