Others stay at day camps for as many as eight weeks. Parents pay from one hundred to more than seven hundred dollars a week for overnight camps. Day camps are much cheaper.

It allows the visitor to rent (租) a room from a local family to better understand the local lifestyle. It also helps to improve the visitor's language skills," said a teacher during a school meeting last term. "Students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join in this kind of holiday. I am sure you won't be disappointed (失望的)."    After this special meeting, I always thought about this kind of holiday. Last month, I had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London, a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.    As we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. After we got to London, we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family (寄宿家庭) was a white couple who had a daughter at my age. They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from them too.    The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sightseeing trip to different places of interest like the Big Ben, the London Bridge, and the Buckingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.     The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it. Yet, time flew really fast. Three weeks later, we had to leave "home" for Hong Kong.1. In the "homestay" programme, a visitor can_____.

Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?    The advantages of going to Britain or America are obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the time when you are in the country. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people.    On the other hand, _____ of staying at home to study. You don't have to make big changes to your life. Besides (除此之外), it is also much cheaper than going abroad.    So I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK or US.
