"Party piece" = phần của bữa tiệc -> cụm từ này nghĩa là tiết mục biểu diễn tại bữa tiệc để giải trí cho mọi người.

Ví dụ
Ciarán Kilkenny, the man of the match in the replayed All-Ireland final against Kerry, declined (từ chối) to sing his party piece Barbie Girl, but the ever-reliable crowd favourite Kevin McMenamin obliged with his version of Grace.

"The school's music teacher Susan Wheeler worked hard to form a school choir (đội hợp xướng) to sing to us so sweetly, when the school term (học kì) has only just started." Long-serving choir member Ron Crossley sang his popular party piece The Hippopotamus Song, with children joining in the refrain (đoạn điệp khúc).

In other senses though, I’m not all that different from the nine-year-old who would beg to stay up late to watch Monday Night Football. I retain (vẫn giữ, vẫn tiếp tục) a boyish enthusiasm for sport, and can still perform my party piece of being given an Arsenal fixture (cuộc thi, cuộc đấu) from any season in the last 20 years and recalling both the result and where I was at the time.
