4.Dear Editor,
Recent reports have indicated an additional 1,400Marines(海军陆战队)are being sent to fghanistan in the coming weeks.This means it costs over $1million annually on the ground over there.I do place a higher level of blame on the policymakers who send soldiers off to kill and be killed in the field.I think the human race needs to think more about killing.
One needs to do the introspection:"Are these wars JUST?"I believe that all of our wars since 1945have been illegal,under international law as well.I suggest that all your readers examine their conscience as it relates to the matter of making war.The fact that many soldiers are motivated by a strong sense of duty does not give them some unqualified(绝对的) moral right to support these wars or any other.It's responsible for all the troops,and the entire population,to determine whether the Afghan or Iraq wars are in accordance with(符合) the development of the state.
I wish someone would give me one or more logical reasons why we are still fighting in Afghanistan and what our goals are.I certainly don't understand it and neither do many who are more knowledgeable than I.
Outsiders have tried unsuccessfully for centuries to conquer Afghanistan,and we seem to be no more successful.We are trying to develop a stable central government,but the country is badly divided into ethnic and tribal groups,and the current government is corrupt(腐败的).Moreover,we are apparently regarded as undesirable occupiers by many of its people,most notably(尤其) the Taliban(塔利班).
If we are to continue spending billions every year in Afghanistan and killing hundreds of our people and many of theirs,our government must provide us with a reasonable explanation of why we are doing so and what we can expect to accomplish.
George Myers

11.Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside 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 Zones2,3and 4of 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 3and 4often offer larger accommodation in a less crowned 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 practice English at home quite as much.

A.host willing to receive foreign students
B.foreigners hoping to build British culture
