“Homestay(寄宿家庭)is a kind of go-abroad program(出国项目). You can stay with a local family to better know their life. It also helps with your language ability(语言能力). If you wish to learn more about foreign cultures(外国文化), you can join this kind of holiday. I am sure you will like it a lot”, says a teacher in a school meeting this term. After this meeting, I always think about this kind of holiday(假日). At last, I go on such a holiday with some of my classmates. We go to London, a place where I always want to go. After we get to London, we stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family was a white couple(夫妇)who have a daughter about my age. They are like parents to me. I learn a lot from them, too.
