the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.
What to Expect
The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers
changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help
and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.
Accommodation Zones
Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most
hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential
(居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very
convenient to travel in London by Underground.
Meal Plans Available
* Continental Breakfast
* Breakfast and Dinner
* Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner
It"s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast.
Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,
cereal (谷物类食品), bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally
part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables
followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.
Friends
If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host"s permission. You have
no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.
Self-Catering Accommodation in Private Homes
Accommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and
often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more
suitable for the long-stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as
an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.
B. foreigners hoping to build British culture
C. travelers planning to visit families in London
D. English learners applying to live in English homes
B. Medical care.
C. Free transport.
D. Physical training.

plaster case over it to keep it in its new shape. I shall have to spend the next week or two anxiously
wondering whether the operation has been successful or not. "Will my nose really look better?" Or
will I look uglier than before? Won"t there be scars (疤痕) after the operation? What shall I do if my
nose is not the shape I wanted? And then the great day will come. The surgeon will take off the
bandages and the plaster, and I shall see my expensive new nose! Will it be worth all the trouble

worse than before.

Choosing the perfect college for yourself is a tough task, because there are many good
colleges out there. However, you need to take a campus(校园)tour because, the college
websites always present a rosy picture where happy faces laugh and study on lush (繁茂的)
green lawns, the libraries store the latest collection of books, and all the facilities(设施)are the
most advanced. However, the reality may be many a time different from what actually is shown
in the booklets or on the official college website. You will find a lot of information about any
college by taking a tour of its campus, and then deciding on it. Reading the following may be
of help to you.
● When to plan the college visit
Prepare a list of your choice of colleges as you near your senior year in high school, and
plan the tour to these colleges soon before you start the application process. You can visit on
weekdays (Monday to Thursday), as generally during Fridays the campus is full of activities,
and you may not find anyone to interact(互动)with.
● Check the infrastructure(基础设施)
The first thing you will notice on a campus tour will definitely be the outer infrastructure, like
the buildings, lawns, vehicle parking facility, etc. Check if the buildings are neatly maintained
and are in a good condition. Go by your gut feeling (本能反应). A college should have good
infrastructure; along with well-equipped libraries and comfortable classrooms. Walk around the
campus and check the inner infrastructure.
● Check the dormitory and cafeteria(自助餐厅)
You should thoroughly check all the facilities in the dormitory. It is often the case that most
colleges are good as far as education is concerned, but they do not have good residential
(居住的)facilities. You can ask the students who stay on-campus about services like a laundry
room, Internet availability, etc. Visit the cafeteria, and if it"s permitted, taste the food there to
understand the quality of food which has been prepared.
● Check the campus
A visit to the campus gives you the actual feel of the campus life. Take a look at the campus,
is it clean and tidy, and as per your expectations(符合你的期望)? You can make out a lot
about the college by visiting it. Think about what you want from a college; is your focus more
on academics or on extra-curricular(课外的)and sporting activities? Picture how you want
your college to be and only then take the decision.
● Interact
A campus visit facilitates (使容易) interaction with the students and professors, and through
this you can get to know a lot about the college. Talk to any students, and ask them about the
campus life and their experiences. Also inquire with the professors and students about the various
courses available, their level of difficulty and so on. Visiting the college is the best way to find if
the college is suitable for you.
